Davidlohr Bueso b258d86065 mm/rmap: calculate page offset when needed
Call page_to_pgoff() to get the page offset once we are sure we actually
need it, and any very obvious initial function checks have passed.
Trivial micro-optimization, and potentially save some cycles.

Joonsoo Kim 2847cf95c6 mm/debug-pagealloc: cleanup page guard code
Page guard is used by debug-pagealloc feature.  Currently, it is
open-coded, but, I think that more abstraction of it makes core page
allocator code more readable.

There is no functional difference.

Tony Luck 4308ce17f6 mm/memblock.c: refactor functions to set/clear MEMBLOCK_HOTPLUG
There is a lot of duplication in the rubric around actually setting or
clearing a mem region flag.  Create a new helper function to do this and
reduce each of memblock_mark_hotplug() and memblock_clear_hotplug() to a
single line.

This will be useful if someone were to add a new mem region flag - which
I hope to be doing some day soon. But it looks like a plausible cleanup
even without that - so I'd like to get it out of the way now.

Vladimir Davydov 95fc3c5010 memcg: do not abuse memcg_kmem_skip_account
task_struct->memcg_kmem_skip_account was initially introduced to avoid
recursion during kmem cache creation: memcg_kmem_get_cache, which is
called by kmem_cache_alloc to determine the per-memcg cache to account
allocation to, may issue lazy cache creation if the needed cache doesn't
exist, which means issuing yet another kmem_cache_alloc.  We can't just
pass a flag to the nested kmem_cache_alloc disabling kmem accounting,
because there are hidden allocations, e.g.  in INIT_WORK.  So we
introduced a flag on the task_struct, memcg_kmem_skip_account, making
memcg_kmem_get_cache return immediately.

By its nature, the flag may also be used to disable accounting for
allocations shared among different cgroups, and currently it is used this
way in memcg_activate_kmem.  Using it like this looks like abusing it to
me.  If we want to disable accounting for some allocations (which we will
definitely want one day), we should either add GFP_NO_MEMCG or GFP_MEMCG
flag in order to blacklist/whitelist some allocations.

For now, let's simply remove memcg_stop/resume_kmem_account from
memcg_activate_kmem.

Gregory Fong b5be83e308 mm: cma: align to physical address, not CMA region position
The alignment in cma_alloc() was done w.r.t. the bitmap.  This is a
problem when, for example:

- a device requires 16M (order 12) alignment
- the CMA region is not 16 M aligned

In such a case, can result with the CMA region starting at, say,
0x2f800000 but any allocation you make from there will be aligned from
there.  Requesting an allocation of 32 M with 16 M alignment will result
in an allocation from 0x2f800000 to 0x31800000, which doesn't work very
well if your strange device requires 16M alignment.

Change to use bitmap_find_next_zero_area_off() to account for the
difference in alignment at reserve-time and alloc-time.

Shrinking/truncate logic can call nommu_shrink_inode_mappings() to verify
that any shared mappings of the inode in question aren't broken (dead
zone).  afaict the only user being ramfs to handle the size change
attribute.

Pretty much a no-brainer to share the lock.

Davidlohr Bueso 874bfcaf79 mm/xip: share the i_mmap_rwsem
__xip_unmap() will remove the xip sparse page from the cache and take down
pte mapping, without altering the interval tree, thus share the
i_mmap_rwsem when searching for the ptes to unmap.

Additionally, tidy up the function a bit and make variables only local to
the interval tree walk loop.

Davidlohr Bueso c8c06efa8b mm: convert i_mmap_mutex to rwsem
The i_mmap_mutex is a close cousin of the anon vma lock, both protecting
similar data, one for file backed pages and the other for anon memory.  To
this end, this lock can also be a rwsem.  In addition, there are some
important opportunities to share the lock when there are no tree
modifications.

This conversion is straightforward.  For now, all users take the write
lock.

Johannes Weiner 1306a85aed mm: embed the memcg pointer directly into struct page
Memory cgroups used to have 5 per-page pointers.  To allow users to
disable that amount of overhead during runtime, those pointers were
allocated in a separate array, with a translation layer between them and
struct page.

There is now only one page pointer remaining: the memcg pointer, that
indicates which cgroup the page is associated with when charged.  The
complexity of runtime allocation and the runtime translation overhead is
no longer justified to save that *potential* 0.19% of memory.  With
CONFIG_SLUB, page->mem_cgroup actually sits in the doubleword padding
after the page->private member and doesn't even increase struct page,
and then this patch actually saves space.  Remaining users that care can
still compile their kernels without CONFIG_MEMCG.

Michal Hocko e4bd6a0248 mm, memcg: fix potential undefined behaviour in page stat accounting
Since commit d7365e783e ("mm: memcontrol: fix missed end-writeback
page accounting") mem_cgroup_end_page_stat consumes locked and flags
variables directly rather than via pointers which might trigger C
undefined behavior as those variables are initialized only in the slow
path of mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat.

Although mem_cgroup_end_page_stat handles parameters correctly and
touches them only when they hold a sensible value it is caller which
loads a potentially uninitialized value which then might allow compiler
to do crazy things.

I haven't seen any warning from gcc and it seems that the current
version (4.9) doesn't exploit this type undefined behavior but Sasha has
reported the following:

  UBSan: Undefined behaviour in mm/rmap.c:1084:2

Johannes Weiner 312722cbb2 mm: memcontrol: shorten the page statistics update slowpath
While moving charges from one memcg to another, page stat updates must
acquire the old memcg's move_lock to prevent double accounting.  That
situation is denoted by an increased memcg->move_accounting.  However, the
charge moving code declares this way too early for now, even before
summing up the RSS and pre-allocating destination charges.

Shorten this slowpath mode by increasing memcg->move_accounting only right
before walking the task's address space with the intention of actually
moving the pages.

Vladimir Davydov b047501cd9 memcg: use generic slab iterators for showing slabinfo
Let's use generic slab_start/next/stop for showing memcg caches info.  In
contrast to the current implementation, this will work even if all memcg
caches' info doesn't fit into a seq buffer (a page), plus it simply looks
neater.

Actually, the main reason I do this isn't mere cleanup.  I'm going to zap
the memcg_slab_caches list, because I find it useless provided we have the
slab_caches list, and this patch is a step in this direction.

It should be noted that before this patch an attempt to read
memory.kmem.slabinfo of a cgroup that doesn't have kmem limit set resulted
in -EIO, while after this patch it will silently show nothing except the
header, but I don't think it will frustrate anyone.

Vladimir Davydov 4ef461e8f4 memcg: remove mem_cgroup_reclaimable check from soft reclaim
mem_cgroup_reclaimable() checks whether a cgroup has reclaimable pages on
*any* NUMA node.  However, the only place where it's called is
mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim(), which tries to reclaim memory from a *specific*
zone.  So the way it is used is incorrect - it will return true even if
the cgroup doesn't have pages on the zone we're scanning.

I think we can get rid of this check completely, because
mem_cgroup_shrink_node_zone(), which is called by
mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim() if mem_cgroup_reclaimable() returns true, is
equivalent to shrink_lruvec(), which exits almost immediately if the
lruvec passed to it is empty.  So there's no need to optimize anything
here.  Besides, we don't have such a check in the general scan path
(shrink_zone) either.

released, and then the final LRU isolation on free dereferences the
stale pc->mem_cgroup pointer.

But since commit 0a31bc97c8 ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API"),
pages are only uncharged AFTER that final LRU isolation, which
guarantees the memcg's lifetime until then.  pc->mem_cgroup now only
needs to be reset for swapcache readahead pages.

Vlastimil Babka fdaf7f5c40 mm, compaction: more focused lru and pcplists draining
The goal of memory compaction is to create high-order freepages through
page migration.  Page migration however puts pages on the per-cpu lru_add
cache, which is later flushed to per-cpu pcplists, and only after pcplists
are drained the pages can actually merge.  This can happen due to the
per-cpu caches becoming full through further freeing, or explicitly.

During direct compaction, it is useful to do the draining explicitly so
that pages merge as soon as possible and compaction can detect success
immediately and keep the latency impact at minimum.  However the current
implementation is far from ideal.  Draining is done only in
__alloc_pages_direct_compact(), after all zones were already compacted,
and the decisions to continue or stop compaction in individual zones was
done without the last batch of migrations being merged.  It is also
missing the draining of lru_add cache before the pcplists.

This patch moves the draining for direct compaction into compact_zone().
It adds the missing lru_cache draining and uses the newly introduced
single zone pcplists draining to reduce overhead and avoid impact on
unrelated zones.  Draining is only performed when it can actually lead to
merging of a page of desired order (passed by cc->order).  This means it
is only done when migration occurred in the previously scanned cc->order
aligned block(s) and the migration scanner is now pointing to the next
cc->order aligned block.

The patch has been tested with stress-highalloc benchmark from mmtests.
Although overal allocation success rates of the benchmark were not
affected, the number of detected compaction successes has doubled.  This
suggests that allocations were previously successful due to implicit
merging caused by background activity, making a later allocation attempt
succeed immediately, but not attributing the success to compaction.  Since
stress-highalloc always tries to allocate almost the whole memory, it
cannot show the improvement in its reported success rate metric.  However
after this patch, compaction should detect success and terminate earlier,
reducing the direct compaction latencies in a real scenario.

Vlastimil Babka 6bace090a2 mm, compaction: always update cached scanner positions
Compaction caches the migration and free scanner positions between
compaction invocations, so that the whole zone gets eventually scanned and
there is no bias towards the initial scanner positions at the
beginning/end of the zone.

The cached positions are continuously updated as scanners progress and the
updating stops as soon as a page is successfully isolated.  The reasoning
behind this is that a pageblock where isolation succeeded is likely to
succeed again in near future and it should be worth revisiting it.

However, the downside is that potentially many pages are rescanned without
successful isolation.  At worst, there might be a page where isolation
from LRU succeeds but migration fails (potentially always).  So upon
encountering this page, cached position would always stop being updated
for no good reason.  It might have been useful to let such page be
rescanned with sync compaction after async one failed, but this is now
handled by caching scanner position for async and sync mode separately
since commit 35979ef339 ("mm, compaction: add per-zone migration pfn
cache for async compaction").

After this patch, cached positions are updated unconditionally.  In
stress-highalloc benchmark, this has decreased the numbers of scanned
pages by few percent, without affecting allocation success rates.

To prevent free scanner from leaving free pages behind after they are
returned due to page migration failure, the cached scanner pfn is changed
to point to the pageblock of the returned free page with the highest pfn,
before leaving compact_zone().

Vlastimil Babka f866979539 mm, compaction: defer only on COMPACT_COMPLETE
Deferred compaction is employed to avoid compacting zone where sync direct
compaction has recently failed.  As such, it makes sense to only defer
when a full zone was scanned, which is when compact_zone returns with
COMPACT_COMPLETE.  It's less useful to defer when compact_zone returns
with apparent success (COMPACT_PARTIAL), followed by a watermark check
failure, which can happen due to parallel allocation activity.  It also
does not make much sense to defer compaction which was completely skipped
(COMPACT_SKIP) for being unsuitable in the first place.

This patch therefore makes deferred compaction trigger only when
COMPACT_COMPLETE is returned from compact_zone().  Results of
stress-highalloc becnmark show the difference is within measurement error,
so the issue is rather cosmetic.
