mm: memcontrol: account pagetables per node
For many workloads, pagetable consumption is significant and it makes sense to expose it in the memory.stat for the memory cgroups. However at the moment, the pagetables are accounted per-zone. Converting them to per-node and using the right interface will correctly account for the memory cgroups as well.

mm: replace memmap_context by meminit_context
Patch series "mm: fix memory to node bad links in sysfs", v3. Sometimes, firmware may expose interleaved memory layout like this: Early memory node ranges node 1: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000011fffffff] node 2: [mem 0x0000000120000000-0x000000014fffffff] node 1: [mem 0x0000000150000000-0x00000001ffffffff] node 0: [mem 0x0000000200000000-0x000000048fffffff] node 2: [mem 0x0000000490000000-0x00000007ffffffff] In that case, we can see memory blocks assigned to multiple nodes in sysfs: $ ls -l /sys/devices/system/memory/memory21 total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 24 05:27 node1 -> ../../node/node1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 24 05:27 node2 -> ../../node/node2 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 65536 Aug 24 05:27 online -r--r--r-- 1 root root 65536 Aug 24 05:27 phys_device -r--r--r-- 1 root root 65536 Aug 24 05:27 phys_index drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Aug 24 05:27 power -r--r--r-- 1 root root 65536 Aug 24 05:27 removable -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 65536 Aug 24 05:27 state lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 24 05:25 subsystem -> ../../../../bus/memory -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 65536 Aug 24 05:25 uevent -r--r--r-- 1 root root 65536 Aug 24 05:27 valid_zones The same applies in the node's directory with a memory21 link in both the node1 and node2's directory. This is wrong but doesn't prevent the system to run. However when later, one of these memory blocks is hot-unplugged and then hot-plugged, the system is detecting an inconsistency in the sysfs layout and a BUG_ON() is raised: kernel BUG at /Users/laurent/src/linux-ppc/mm/memory_hotplug.c:1084!

The root cause of this issue is that when node's memory is registered, the range used can overlap another node's range, thus the memory block is registered to multiple nodes in sysfs. There are two issues here: (a) The sysfs memory and node's layouts are broken due to these multiple links (b) The link errors in link_mem_sections() should not lead to a system panic. To address (a) register_mem_sect_under_node should not rely on the system state to detect whether the link operation is triggered by a hot plug operation or not. This is addressed by the patches 1 and 2 of this series. Issue (b) will be addressed separately. This patch (of 2): The memmap_context enum is used to detect whether a memory operation is due to a hot-add operation or happening at boot time. Make it general to the hotplug operation and rename it as meminit_context.

mm/sparse: cleanup the code surrounding memory_present()
After removal of CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP we have two equivalent functions that call memory_present() for each region in memblock.memory: sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions() and membocks_present(). Moreover, all architectures have a call to either of these functions preceding the call to sparse_init() and in the most cases they are called one after the other. Mark the regions from memblock.memory as present during sparce_init() by making sparse_init() call memblocks_present(), make memblocks_present() and memory_present() functions static and remove redundant sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions() function.

mm: memcg: convert vmstat slab counters to bytes
In order to prepare for per-object slab memory accounting, convert NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE and NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE vmstat items to bytes. To make it obvious, rename them to NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE_B and NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE_B (similar to NR_KERNEL_STACK_KB). Internally global and per-node counters are stored in pages, however memcg and lruvec counters are stored in bytes. This scheme may look weird, but only for now. As soon as slab pages will be shared between multiple cgroups, global and node counters will reflect the total number of slab pages. However memcg and lruvec counters will be used for per-memcg slab memory tracking, which will take separate kernel objects in the account. Keeping global and node counters in pages helps to avoid additional overhead. The size of slab memory shouldn't exceed 4Gb on 32-bit machines, so it will fit into atomic_long_t we use for vmstats.

mm: memcg: prepare for byte-sized vmstat items
To implement per-object slab memory accounting, we need to convert slab vmstat counters to bytes. Actually, out of 4 levels of counters: global, per-node, per-memcg and per-lruvec only two last levels will require byte-sized counters. It's because global and per-node counters will be counting the number of slab pages, and per-memcg and per-lruvec will be counting the amount of memory taken by charged slab objects. Converting all vmstat counters to bytes or even all slab counters to bytes would introduce an additional overhead. So instead let's store global and per-node counters in pages, and memcg and lruvec counters in bytes. To make the API clean all access helpers (both on the read and write sides) are dealing with bytes. To avoid back-and-forth conversions a new flavor of read-side helpers is introduced, which always returns values in pages: node_page_state_pages() and global_node_page_state_pages(). Actually new helpers are just reading raw values. Old helpers are simple wrappers, which will complain on an attempt to read byte value, because at the moment no one actually needs bytes. Thanks to Johannes Weiner for the idea of having the byte-sized API on top of the page-sized internal storage.

mm: workingset: age nonresident information alongside anonymous pages
Patch series "fix for "mm: balance LRU lists based on relative
thrashing" patchset"
This patchset fixes some problems of the patchset, "mm: balance LRU
lists based on relative thrashing", which is now merged on the mainline.
Patch "mm: workingset: let cache workingset challenge anon fix" is the
result of discussion with Johannes. See following link.
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200520232525.798933-6-hannes@cmpxchg.org
And, the other two are minor things which are found when I try to rebase
my patchset.
This patch (of 3):
After ("mm: workingset: let cache workingset challenge anon fix"), we
compare refault distances to active_file + anon. But age of the
non-resident information is only driven by the file LRU. As a result,
we may overestimate the recency of any incoming refaults and activate
them too eagerly, causing unnecessary LRU churn in certain situations.
Make anon aging drive nonresident age as well to address that.

mm: base LRU balancing on an explicit cost model
Currently, scan pressure between the anon and file LRU lists is balanced based on a mixture of reclaim efficiency and a somewhat vague notion of "value" of having certain pages in memory over others. That concept of value is problematic, because it has caused us to count any event that remotely makes one LRU list more or less preferrable for reclaim, even when these events are not directly comparable and impose very different costs on the system. One example is referenced file pages that we still deactivate and referenced anonymous pages that we actually rotate back to the head of the list. There is also conceptual overlap with the LRU algorithm itself. By rotating recently used pages instead of reclaiming them, the algorithm already biases the applied scan pressure based on page value. Thus, when rebalancing scan pressure due to rotations, we should think of reclaim cost, and leave assessing the page value to the LRU algorithm. Lastly, considering both value-increasing as well as value-decreasing events can sometimes cause the same type of event to be counted twice, i.e. how rotating a page increases the LRU value, while reclaiming it succesfully decreases the value. In itself this will balance out fine, but it quietly skews the impact of events that are only recorded once. The abstract metric of "value", the murky relationship with the LRU algorithm, and accounting both negative and positive events make the current pressure balancing model hard to reason about and modify. This patch switches to a balancing model of accounting the concrete, actually observed cost of reclaiming one LRU over another. For now, that cost includes pages that are scanned but rotated back to the list head. Subsequent patches will add consideration for IO caused by refaulting of recently evicted pages. Replace struct zone_reclaim_stat with two cost counters in the lruvec, and make everything that affects cost go through a new lru_note_cost() function.

mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP option
CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP is used to differentiate initialization of nodes and zones structures between the systems that have region to node mapping in memblock and those that don't. Currently all the NUMA architectures enable this option and for the non-NUMA systems we can presume that all the memory belongs to node 0 and therefore the compile time configuration option is not required. The remaining few architectures that use DISCONTIGMEM without NUMA are easily updated to use memblock_add_node() instead of memblock_add() and thus have proper correspondence of memblock regions to NUMA nodes. Still, free_area_init_node() must have a backward compatible version because its semantics with and without CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP is different. Once all the architectures will use the new semantics, the entire compatibility layer can be dropped.

mm/writeback: discard NR_UNSTABLE_NFS, use NR_WRITEBACK instead
After an NFS page has been written it is considered "unstable" until a
COMMIT request succeeds. If the COMMIT fails, the page will be
re-written.
These "unstable" pages are currently accounted as "reclaimable", either
in WB_RECLAIMABLE, or in NR_UNSTABLE_NFS which is included in a
'reclaimable' count. This might have made sense when sending the COMMIT

mm/sparse.c: only use subsection map in VMEMMAP case
Currently, to support subsection aligned memory region adding for pmem, subsection map is added to track which subsection is present. However, config ZONE_DEVICE depends on SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP. It means subsection map only makes sense when SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP enabled. For the classic sparse, it's meaningless. Even worse, it may confuse people when checking code related to the classic sparse. About the classic sparse which doesn't support subsection hotplug, Dan said it's more because the effort and maintenance burden outweighs the benefit. Besides, the current 64 bit ARCHes all enable SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP_ENABLE by default. Combining the above reasons, no need to provide subsection map and the relevant handling for the classic sparse. Let's remove them.

mm: use zone and order instead of free area in free_list manipulators
In order to enable the use of the zone from the list manipulator functions I will need access to the zone pointer. As it turns out most of the accessors were always just being directly passed &zone->free_area[order] anyway so it would make sense to just fold that into the function itself and pass the zone and order as arguments instead of the free area. In order to be able to reference the zone we need to move the declaration of the functions down so that we have the zone defined before we define the list manipulation functions. Since the functions are only used in the file mm/page_alloc.c we can just move them there to reduce noise in the header.

mm: adjust shuffle code to allow for future coalescing
Patch series "mm / virtio: Provide support for free page reporting", v17. This series provides an asynchronous means of reporting free guest pages to a hypervisor so that the memory associated with those pages can be dropped and reused by other processes and/or guests on the host. Using this it is possible to avoid unnecessary I/O to disk and greatly improve performance in the case of memory overcommit on the host. When enabled we will be performing a scan of free memory every 2 seconds while pages of sufficiently high order are being freed. In each pass at least one sixteenth of each free list will be reported. By doing this we avoid racing against other threads that may be causing a high amount of memory churn. The lowest page order currently scanned when reporting pages is pageblock_order so that this feature will not interfere with the use of Transparent Huge Pages in the case of virtualization. Currently this is only in use by virtio-balloon however there is the hope that at some point in the future other hypervisors might be able to make use of it. In the virtio-balloon/QEMU implementation the hypervisor is currently using MADV_DONTNEED to indicate to the host kernel that the page is currently free. It will be zeroed and faulted back into the guest the next time the page is accessed. To track if a page is reported or not the Uptodate flag was repurposed and used as a Reported flag for Buddy pages. We walk though the free list isolating pages and adding them to the scatterlist until we either encounter the end of the list or have processed at least one sixteenth of the pages that were listed in nr_free prior to us starting. If we fill the scatterlist before we reach the end of the list we rotate the list so that the first unreported page we encounter is moved to the head of the list as that is where we will resume after we have freed the reported pages back into the tail of the list. Below are the results from various benchmarks. I primarily focused on two tests. The first is the will-it-scale/page_fault2 test, and the other is a modified version of will-it-scale/page_fault1 that was enabled to use THP. I did this as it allows for better visibility into different parts of the memory subsystem. The guest is running with 32G for RAM on one node of a E5-2630 v3. The host has had some features such as CPU turbo disabled in the BIOS.

These results include the deviation seen between the average value reported here versus the high and/or low value. I observed that during the test memory usage for the first three tests never dropped whereas with the patches fully enabled the VM would drop to using only a few GB of the host's memory when switching from memhog to page fault tests. Any of the overhead visible with this patch set enabled seems due to page faults caused by accessing the reported pages and the host zeroing the page before giving it back to the guest. This overhead is much more visible when using THP than with standard 4K pages. In addition page shuffling seemed to increase the amount of faults generated due to an increase in memory churn. The overehad is reduced when using MADV_FREE as we can avoid the extra zeroing of the pages when they are reintroduced to the host, as can be seen when the RFC is applied with shuffling enabled. The overall guest size is kept fairly small to only a few GB while the test is running. If the host memory were oversubscribed this patch set should result in a performance improvement as swapping memory in the host can be avoided. A brief history on the background of free page reporting can be found at: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/29f43d5796feed0dec8e8bb98b187d9dac03b900.camel@linux.intel.com/ This patch (of 9): Move the head/tail adding logic out of the shuffle code and into the __free_one_page function since ultimately that is where it is really needed anyway.

After introducing mem sub section concept, pfn_present() loses its literal meaning, and will not be necessary a truth on partial populated mem section. Since all of the callers use it to judge an absent section, it is better to rename pfn_present() as pfn_in_present_section().

mm/gup: /proc/vmstat: pin_user_pages (FOLL_PIN) reporting
Now that pages are "DMA-pinned" via pin_user_page*(), and unpinned via unpin_user_pages*(), we need some visibility into whether all of this is working correctly. Add two new fields to /proc/vmstat: nr_foll_pin_acquired nr_foll_pin_released These are documented in Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst. They represent the number of pages (since boot time) that have been pinned ("nr_foll_pin_acquired") and unpinned ("nr_foll_pin_released"), via pin_user_pages*() and unpin_user_pages*(). In the absence of long-running DMA or RDMA operations that hold pages pinned, the above two fields will normally be equal to each other. Also: update Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst, to remove an earlier (now confirmed untrue) claim about a performance problem with /proc/vmstat.

mm/memremap_pages: Introduce memremap_compat_align()
The "sub-section memory hotplug" facility allows memremap_pages() users like libnvdimm to compensate for hardware platforms like x86 that have a section size larger than their hardware memory mapping granularity. The compensation that sub-section support affords is being tolerant of physical memory resources shifting by units smaller (64MiB on x86) than the memory-hotplug section size (128 MiB). Where the platform physical-memory mapping granularity is limited by the number and capability of address-decode-registers in the memory controller. While the sub-section support allows memremap_pages() to operate on sub-section (2MiB) granularity, the Power architecture may still require 16MiB alignment on "!radix_enabled()" platforms. In order for libnvdimm to be able to detect and manage this per-arch limitation, introduce memremap_compat_align() as a common minimum alignment across all driver-facing memory-mapping interfaces, and let Power override it to 16MiB in the "!radix_enabled()" case. The assumption / requirement for 16MiB to be a viable memremap_compat_align() value is that Power does not have platforms where its equivalent of address-decode-registers never hardware remaps a persistent memory resource on smaller than 16MiB boundaries. Note that I tried my best to not add a new Kconfig symbol, but header include entanglements defeated the #ifndef memremap_compat_align design pattern and the need to export it defeats the __weak design pattern for arch overrides. Based on an initial patch by Aneesh.

mm: memcg/slab: fix percpu slab vmstats flushing
Currently slab percpu vmstats are flushed twice: during the memcg
offlining and just before freeing the memcg structure. Each time percpu
counters are summed, added to the atomic counterparts and propagated up
by the cgroup tree.
The second flushing is required due to how recursive vmstats are
implemented: counters are batched in percpu variables on a local level,
and once a percpu value is crossing some predefined threshold, it spills
over to atomic values on the local and each ascendant levels. It means
that without flushing some numbers cached in percpu variables will be
dropped on floor each time a cgroup is destroyed. And with uptime the
error on upper levels might become noticeable.
The first flushing aims to make counters on ancestor levels more
precise. Dying cgroups may resume in the dying state for a long time.
After kmem_cache reparenting which is performed during the offlining
slab counters of the dying cgroup don't have any chances to be updated,
because any slab operations will be performed on the parent level. It
means that the inaccuracy caused by percpu batching will not decrease up
to the final destruction of the cgroup. By the original idea flushing
slab counters during the offlining should minimize the visible
inaccuracy of slab counters on the parent level.
The problem is that percpu counters are not zeroed after the first
flushing. So every cached percpu value is summed twice. It creates a
small error (up to 32 pages per cpu, but usually less) which accumulates
on parent cgroup level. After creating and destroying of thousands of
child cgroups, slab counter on parent level can be way off the real
value.
For now, let's just stop flushing slab counters on memcg offlining. It
can't be done correctly without scheduling a work on each cpu: reading
and zeroing it during css offlining can race with an asynchronous
update, which doesn't expect values to be changed underneath.
With this change, slab counters on parent level will become eventually
consistent. Once all dying children are gone, values are correct. And
if not, the error is capped by 32 * NR_CPUS pages per dying cgroup.
It's not perfect, as slab are reparented, so any updates after the
reparenting will happen on the parent level. It means that if a slab
page was allocated, a counter on child level was bumped, then the page
was reparented and freed, the annihilation of positive and negative
counter values will not happen until the child cgroup is released. It
makes slab counters different from others, and it might want us to
implement flushing in a correct form again. But it's also a question of
performance: scheduling a work on each cpu isn't free, and it's an open
question if the benefit of having more accurate counters is worth it.
We might also consider flushing all counters on offlining, not only slab
counters.
So let's fix the main problem now: make the slab counters eventually
consistent, so at least the error won't grow with uptime (or more
precisely the number of created and destroyed cgroups). And think about
the accuracy of counters separately.

mm: vmscan: enforce inactive:active ratio at the reclaim root
We split the LRU lists into inactive and an active parts to maximize workingset protection while allowing just enough inactive cache space to faciltate readahead and writeback for one-off file accesses (e.g. a linear scan through a file, or logging); or just enough inactive anon to maintain recent reference information when reclaim needs to swap. With cgroups and their nested LRU lists, we currently don't do this correctly. While recursive cgroup reclaim establishes a relative LRU order among the pages of all involved cgroups, inactive:active size decisions are done on a per-cgroup level. As a result, we'll reclaim a cgroup's workingset when it doesn't have cold pages, even when one of its siblings has plenty of it that should be reclaimed first. For example: workload A has 50M worth of hot cache but doesn't do any one-off file accesses; meanwhile, parallel workload B scans files and rarely accesses the same page twice. If these workloads were to run in an uncgrouped system, A would be protected from the high rate of cache faults from B. But if they were put in parallel cgroups for memory accounting purposes, B's fast cache fault rate would push out the hot cache pages of A. This is unexpected and undesirable - the "scan resistance" of the page cache is broken. This patch moves inactive:active size balancing decisions to the root of reclaim - the same level where the LRU order is established. It does this by looking at the recursive size of the inactive and the active file sets of the cgroup subtree at the beginning of the reclaim cycle, and then making a decision - scan or skip active pages - that applies throughout the entire run and to every cgroup involved. With that in place, in the test above, the VM will recognize that there are plenty of inactive pages in the combined cache set of workloads A and B and prefer the one-off cache in B over the hot pages in A. The scan resistance of the cache is restored.

This is unnecessarily complicated: the lruvec is an existing abstraction layer for that node-memcg intersection. Introduce lruvec->flags and LRUVEC_CONGESTED.

mm: clean up and clarify lruvec lookup procedure
There is a per-memcg lruvec and a NUMA node lruvec. Which one is being used is somewhat confusing right now, and it's easy to make mistakes - especially when it comes to global reclaim. How it works: when memory cgroups are enabled, we always use the root_mem_cgroup's per-node lruvecs. When memory cgroups are not compiled in or disabled at runtime, we use pgdat->lruvec. Document that in a comment. Due to the way the reclaim code is generalized, all lookups use the mem_cgroup_lruvec() helper function, and nobody should have to find the right lruvec manually right now. But to avoid future mistakes, rename the pgdat->lruvec member to pgdat->__lruvec and delete the convenience wrapper that suggests it's a commonly accessed member. While in this area, swap the mem_cgroup_lruvec() argument order. The name suggests a memcg operation, yet it takes a pgdat first and a memcg second. I have to double take every time I call this.

mm: thp: extract split_queue_* into a struct
Patch series "Make deferred split shrinker memcg aware", v6. Currently THP deferred split shrinker is not memcg aware, this may cause premature OOM with some configuration. For example the below test would run into premature OOM easily: $ cgcreate -g memory:thp $ echo 4G > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/thp/memory/limit_in_bytes $ cgexec -g memory:thp transhuge-stress 4000 transhuge-stress comes from kernel selftest. It is easy to hit OOM, but there are still a lot THP on the deferred split queue, memcg direct reclaim can't touch them since the deferred split shrinker is not memcg aware. Convert deferred split shrinker memcg aware by introducing per memcg deferred split queue. The THP should be on either per node or per memcg deferred split queue if it belongs to a memcg. When the page is immigrated to the other memcg, it will be immigrated to the target memcg's deferred split queue too. Reuse the second tail page's deferred_list for per memcg list since the same THP can't be on multiple deferred split queues. Make deferred split shrinker not depend on memcg kmem since it is not slab. It doesn't make sense to not shrink THP even though memcg kmem is disabled. With the above change the test demonstrated above doesn't trigger OOM even though with cgroup.memory=nokmem. This patch (of 4): Put split_queue, split_queue_lock and split_queue_len into a struct in order to reduce code duplication when we convert deferred_split to memcg aware in the later patches.

mm: memcontrol: flush percpu slab vmstats on kmem offlining
I've noticed that the "slab" value in memory.stat is sometimes 0, even
if some children memory cgroups have a non-zero "slab" value. The
following investigation showed that this is the result of the kmem_cache
reparenting in combination with the per-cpu batching of slab vmstats.
At the offlining some vmstat value may leave in the percpu cache, not
being propagated upwards by the cgroup hierarchy. It means that stats
on ancestor levels are lower than actual. Later when slab pages are
released, the precise number of pages is substracted on the parent
level, making the value negative. We don't show negative values, 0 is
printed instead.
To fix this issue, let's flush percpu slab memcg and lruvec stats on
memcg offlining. This guarantees that numbers on all ancestor levels
are accurate and match the actual number of outstanding slab pages.

mm/sparsemem: add helpers track active portions of a section at boot
Prepare for hot{plug,remove} of sub-ranges of a section by tracking a sub-section active bitmask, each bit representing a PMD_SIZE span of the architecture's memory hotplug section size. The implications of a partially populated section is that pfn_valid() needs to go beyond a valid_section() check and either determine that the section is an "early section", or read the sub-section active ranges from the bitmask. The expectation is that the bitmask (subsection_map) fits in the same cacheline as the valid_section() / early_section() data, so the incremental performance overhead to pfn_valid() should be negligible. The rationale for using early_section() to short-ciruit the subsection_map check is that there are legacy code paths that use pfn_valid() at section granularity before validating the pfn against pgdat data. So, the early_section() check allows those traditional assumptions to persist while also permitting subsection_map to tell the truth for purposes of populating the unused portions of early sections with PMEM and other ZONE_DEVICE mappings.

mm/sparsemem: introduce a SECTION_IS_EARLY flag
In preparation for sub-section hotplug, track whether a given section was created during early memory initialization, or later via memory hotplug. This distinction is needed to maintain the coarse expectation that pfn_valid() returns true for any pfn within a given section even if that section has pages that are reserved from the page allocator. For example one of the of goals of subsection hotplug is to support cases where the system physical memory layout collides System RAM and PMEM within a section. Several pfn_valid() users expect to just check if a section is valid, but they are not careful to check if the given pfn is within a "System RAM" boundary and instead expect pgdat information to further validate the pfn. Rather than unwind those paths to make their pfn_valid() queries more precise a follow on patch uses the SECTION_IS_EARLY flag to maintain the traditional expectation that pfn_valid() returns true for all early sections.

mm/sparsemem: introduce struct mem_section_usage
Patch series "mm: Sub-section memory hotplug support", v10. The memory hotplug section is an arbitrary / convenient unit for memory hotplug. 'Section-size' units have bled into the user interface ('memblock' sysfs) and can not be changed without breaking existing userspace. The section-size constraint, while mostly benign for typical memory hotplug, has and continues to wreak havoc with 'device-memory' use cases, persistent memory (pmem) in particular. Recall that pmem uses devm_memremap_pages(), and subsequently arch_add_memory(), to allocate a 'struct page' memmap for pmem. However, it does not use the 'bottom half' of memory hotplug, i.e. never marks pmem pages online and never exposes the userspace memblock interface for pmem. This leaves an opening to redress the section-size constraint. To date, the libnvdimm subsystem has attempted to inject padding to satisfy the internal constraints of arch_add_memory(). Beyond complicating the code, leading to bugs [2], wasting memory, and limiting configuration flexibility, the padding hack is broken when the platform changes this physical memory alignment of pmem from one boot to the next. Device failure (intermittent or permanent) and physical reconfiguration are events that can cause the platform firmware to change the physical placement of pmem on a subsequent boot, and device failure is an everyday event in a data-center. It turns out that sections are only a hard requirement of the user-facing interface for memory hotplug and with a bit more infrastructure sub-section arch_add_memory() support can be added for kernel internal usages like devm_memremap_pages(). Here is an analysis of the current design assumptions in the current code and how they are addressed in the new implementation: Current design assumptions: - Sections that describe boot memory (early sections) are never unplugged / removed. - pfn_valid(), in the CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=y, case devolves to a valid_section() check - __add_pages() and helper routines assume all operations occur in PAGES_PER_SECTION units. - The memblock sysfs interface only comprehends full sections New design assumptions: - Sections are instrumented with a sub-section bitmask to track (on x86) individual 2MB sub-divisions of a 128MB section. - Partially populated early sections can be extended with additional sub-sections, and those sub-sections can be removed with arch_remove_memory(). With this in place we no longer lose usable memory capacity to padding. - pfn_valid() is updated to look deeper than valid_section() to also check the active-sub-section mask. This indication is in the same cacheline as the valid_section() so the performance impact is expected to be negligible. So far the lkp robot has not reported any regressions. - Outside of the core vmemmap population routines which are replaced, other helper routines like shrink_{zone,pgdat}_span() are updated to handle the smaller granularity. Core memory hotplug routines that deal with online memory are not touched. - The existing memblock sysfs user api guarantees / assumptions are not touched since this capability is limited to !online !memblock-sysfs-accessible sections. Meanwhile the issue reports continue to roll in from users that do not understand when and how the 128MB constraint will bite them. The current implementation relied on being able to support at least one misaligned namespace, but that immediately falls over on any moderately complex namespace creation attempt. Beyond the initial problem of 'System RAM' colliding with pmem, and the unsolvable problem of physical alignment changes, Linux is now being exposed to platforms that collide pmem ranges with other pmem ranges by default [3]. In short, devm_memremap_pages() has pushed the venerable section-size constraint past the breaking point, and the simplicity of section-aligned arch_add_memory() is no longer tenable. These patches are exposed to the kbuild robot on a subsection-v10 branch [4], and a preview of the unit test for this functionality is available on the 'subsection-pending' branch of ndctl [5]. [2]: https://lore.kernel.org/r/155000671719.348031.2347363160141119237.stgit@dwillia2-desk3.amr.corp.intel.com [3]: https://github.com/pmem/ndctl/issues/76 [4]: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/djbw/nvdimm.git/log/?h=subsection-v10 [5]: https://github.com/pmem/ndctl/commit/7c59b4867e1c This patch (of 13): Towards enabling memory hotplug to track partial population of a section, introduce 'struct mem_section_usage'. A pointer to a 'struct mem_section_usage' instance replaces the existing pointer to a 'pageblock_flags' bitmap. Effectively it adds one more 'unsigned long' beyond the 'pageblock_flags' (usemap) allocation to house a new 'subsection_map' bitmap. The new bitmap enables the memory hot{plug,remove} implementation to act on incremental sub-divisions of a section. SUBSECTION_SHIFT is defined as global constant instead of per-architecture value like SECTION_SIZE_BITS in order to allow cross-arch compatibility of subsection users. Specifically a common subsection size allows for the possibility that persistent memory namespace configurations be made compatible across architectures. The primary motivation for this functionality is to support platforms that mix "System RAM" and "Persistent Memory" within a single section, or multiple PMEM ranges with different mapping lifetimes within a single section. The section restriction for hotplug has caused an ongoing saga of hacks and bugs for devm_memremap_pages() users. Beyond the fixups to teach existing paths how to retrieve the 'usemap' from a section, and updates to usemap allocation path, there are no expected behavior changes.

mm: maintain randomization of page free lists
When freeing a page with an order >= shuffle_page_order randomly select the front or back of the list for insertion. While the mm tries to defragment physical pages into huge pages this can tend to make the page allocator more predictable over time. Inject the front-back randomness to preserve the initial randomness established by shuffle_free_memory() when the kernel was booted. The overhead of this manipulation is constrained by only being applied for MAX_ORDER sized pages by default.

mm: shuffle initial free memory to improve memory-side-cache utilization
Patch series "mm: Randomize free memory", v10.
This patch (of 3):
Randomization of the page allocator improves the average utilization of
a direct-mapped memory-side-cache. Memory side caching is a platform
capability that Linux has been previously exposed to in HPC
(high-performance computing) environments on specialty platforms. In
that instance it was a smaller pool of high-bandwidth-memory relative to
higher-capacity / lower-bandwidth DRAM. Now, this capability is going
to be found on general purpose server platforms where DRAM is a cache in
front of higher latency persistent memory [1].
Robert offered an explanation of the state of the art of Linux
interactions with memory-side-caches [2], and I copy it here:
It's been a problem in the HPC space:
http://www.nersc.gov/research-and-development/knl-cache-mode-performance-coe/
A kernel module called zonesort is available to try to help:
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/xeon-phi-software
and this abandoned patch series proposed that for the kernel:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170823100205.17311-1-lukasz.daniluk@intel.com
Dan's patch series doesn't attempt to ensure buffers won't conflict, but
also reduces the chance that the buffers will. This will make performance
more consistent, albeit slower than "optimal" (which is near impossible
to attain in a general-purpose kernel). That's better than forcing
users to deploy remedies like:
"To eliminate this gradual degradation, we have added a Stream
measurement to the Node Health Check that follows each job;
nodes are rebooted whenever their measured memory bandwidth
falls below 300 GB/s."
A replacement for zonesort was merged upstream in commit

mm, compaction: be selective about what pageblocks to clear skip hints
Pageblock hints are cleared when compaction restarts or kswapd makes enough progress that it can sleep but it's over-eager in that the bit is cleared for migration sources with no LRU pages and migration targets with no free pages. As pageblock skip hint flushes are relatively rare and out-of-band with respect to kswapd, this patch makes a few more expensive checks to see if it's appropriate to even clear the bit. Every pageblock that is not cleared will avoid 512 pages being scanned unnecessarily on x86-64. The impact is variable with different workloads showing small differences in latency, success rates and scan rates. This is expected as clearing the hints is not that common but doing a small amount of work out-of-band to avoid a large amount of work in-band later is generally a good thing.

It appears to be a false positive in that the only way the lock ordering
should be inverted is if kswapd is waking itself and the wakeup
allocates debugging objects which should already be allocated if it's
kswapd doing the waking. Nevertheless, the possibility exists and so
it's best to avoid the problem.
This patch flags a zone as needing a kswapd using the, surprisingly,
unused zone flag field. The flag is read without the lock held to do
the wakeup. It's possible that the flag setting context is not the same
as the flag clearing context or for small races to occur. However, each
race possibility is harmless and there is no visible degredation in
fragmentation treatment.
While zone->flag could have continued to be unused, there is potential
for moving some existing fields into the flags field instead.
Particularly read-mostly ones like zone->initialized and
zone->contiguous.

mm, hotplug: move init_currently_empty_zone() under zone_span_lock protection
During online_pages phase, pgdat->nr_zones will be updated in case this zone is empty. Currently the online_pages phase is protected by the global locks (device_device_hotplug_lock and mem_hotplug_lock), which ensures there is no contention during the update of nr_zones. These global locks introduces scalability issues (especially the second one), which slow down code relying on get_online_mems(). This is also a preparation for not having to rely on get_online_mems() but instead some more fine grained locks. The patch moves init_currently_empty_zone under both zone_span_writelock and pgdat_resize_lock because both the pgdat state is changed (nr_zones) and the zone's start_pfn. Also this patch changes the documentation of node_size_lock to include the protection of nr_zones.

mm, sparse: drop pgdat_resize_lock in sparse_add/remove_one_section()
pgdat_resize_lock is used to protect pgdat's memory region information like: node_start_pfn, node_present_pages, etc. While in function sparse_add/remove_one_section(), pgdat_resize_lock is used to protect initialization/release of one mem_section. This looks not proper. These code paths are currently protected by mem_hotplug_lock currently but should there ever be any reason for locking at the sparse layer a dedicated lock should be introduced. Following is the current call trace of sparse_add/remove_one_section() mem_hotplug_begin() arch_add_memory() add_pages() __add_pages() __add_section() sparse_add_one_section() mem_hotplug_done() mem_hotplug_begin() arch_remove_memory() __remove_pages() __remove_section() sparse_remove_one_section() mem_hotplug_done() The comment above the pgdat_resize_lock also mentions "Holding this will also guarantee that any pfn_valid() stays that way.", which is true with the current implementation and false after this patch. But current implementation doesn't meet this comment. There isn't any pfn walkers to take the lock so this looks like a relict from the past. This patch also removes this comment.

When DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is configured, only the first section of each node's highest zone is initialized before defer stage. static_init_pgcnt is used to store the number of pages like this: pgdat->static_init_pgcnt = min_t(unsigned long, PAGES_PER_SECTION, pgdat->node_spanned_pages); because we don't want to overflow zone's range. But this is not necessary, since defer_init() is called like this: memmap_init_zone() for pfn in [start_pfn, end_pfn) defer_init(pfn, end_pfn) In case (pgdat->node_spanned_pages < PAGES_PER_SECTION), the loop would stop before calling defer_init(). BTW, comparing PAGES_PER_SECTION with node_spanned_pages is not correct, since nr_initialised is zone based instead of node based. Even node_spanned_pages is bigger than PAGES_PER_SECTION, its highest zone would have pages less than PAGES_PER_SECTION.

mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an external fragmentation event occurs
An external fragmentation event was previously described as When the page allocator fragments memory, it records the event using the mm_page_alloc_extfrag event. If the fallback_order is smaller than a pageblock order (order-9 on 64-bit x86) then it's considered an event that will cause external fragmentation issues in the future. The kernel reduces the probability of such events by increasing the watermark sizes by calling set_recommended_min_free_kbytes early in the lifetime of the system. This works reasonably well in general but if there are enough sparsely populated pageblocks then the problem can still occur as enough memory is free overall and kswapd stays asleep. This patch introduces a watermark_boost_factor sysctl that allows a zone watermark to be temporarily boosted when an external fragmentation causing events occurs. The boosting will stall allocations that would decrease free memory below the boosted low watermark and kswapd is woken if the calling context allows to reclaim an amount of memory relative to the size of the high watermark and the watermark_boost_factor until the boost is cleared. When kswapd finishes, it wakes kcompactd at the pageblock order to clean some of the pageblocks that may have been affected by the fragmentation event. kswapd avoids any writeback, slab shrinkage and swap from reclaim context during this operation to avoid excessive system disruption in the name of fragmentation avoidance. Care is taken so that kswapd will do normal reclaim work if the system is really low on memory. This was evaluated using the same workloads as "mm, page_alloc: Spread allocations across zones before introducing fragmentation". 1-socket Skylake machine config-global-dhp__workload_thpfioscale XFS (no special madvise) 4 fio threads, 1 THP allocating thread -------------------------------------- 4.20-rc3 extfrag events < order 9: 804694 4.20-rc3+patch: 408912 (49% reduction) 4.20-rc3+patch1-4: 18421 (98% reduction) 4.20.0-rc3 4.20.0-rc3 lowzone-v5r8 boost-v5r8 Amean fault-base-1 653.58 ( 0.00%) 652.71 ( 0.13%) Amean fault-huge-1 0.00 ( 0.00%) 178.93 * -99.00%* 4.20.0-rc3 4.20.0-rc3 lowzone-v5r8 boost-v5r8 Percentage huge-1 0.00 ( 0.00%) 5.12 ( 100.00%) Note that external fragmentation causing events are massively reduced by this path whether in comparison to the previous kernel or the vanilla kernel.

mm: convert zone->managed_pages to atomic variable
totalram_pages, zone->managed_pages and totalhigh_pages updates are protected by managed_page_count_lock, but readers never care about it. Convert these variables to atomic to avoid readers potentially seeing a store tear. This patch converts zone->managed_pages. Subsequent patches will convert totalram_panges, totalhigh_pages and eventually managed_page_count_lock will be removed. Main motivation was that managed_page_count_lock handling was complicating things. It was discussed in length here, https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/995739/#1181785 So it seemes better to remove the lock and convert variables to atomic, with preventing poteintial store-to-read tearing as a bonus.

Powerpc has somewhat odd usage where ZONE_DMA is used for all memory on common 64-bit configfs, and ZONE_DMA32 is used for 31-bit schemes. Move to a scheme closer to what other architectures use (and I dare to say the intent of the system): - ZONE_DMA: optionally for memory < 31-bit (64-bit embedded only) - ZONE_NORMAL: everything addressable by the kernel - ZONE_HIGHMEM: memory > 32-bit for 32-bit kernels Also provide information on how ZONE_DMA is used by defining ARCH_ZONE_DMA_BITS.

mm: workingset: tell cache transitions from workingset thrashing
Refaults happen during transitions between workingsets as well as in-place thrashing. Knowing the difference between the two has a range of applications, including measuring the impact of memory shortage on the system performance, as well as the ability to smarter balance pressure between the filesystem cache and the swap-backed workingset. During workingset transitions, inactive cache refaults and pushes out established active cache. When that active cache isn't stale, however, and also ends up refaulting, that's bonafide thrashing. Introduce a new page flag that tells on eviction whether the page has been active or not in its lifetime. This bit is then stored in the shadow entry, to classify refaults as transitioning or thrashing. How many page->flags does this leave us with on 32-bit? 20 bits are always page flags 21 if you have an MMU 23 with the zone bits for DMA, Normal, HighMem, Movable 29 with the sparsemem section bits 30 if PAE is enabled 31 with this patch. So on 32-bit PAE, that leaves 1 bit for distinguishing two NUMA nodes. If that's not enough, the system can switch to discontigmem and re-gain the 6 or 7 sparsemem section bits.

mm, sched/numa: Remove rate-limiting of automatic NUMA balancing migration
Rate limiting of page migrations due to automatic NUMA balancing was introduced to mitigate the worst-case scenario of migrating at high frequency due to false sharing or slowly ping-ponging between nodes. Since then, a lot of effort was spent on correctly identifying these pages and avoiding unnecessary migrations and the safety net may no longer be required. Jirka Hladky reported a regression in 4.17 due to a scheduler patch that avoids spreading STREAM tasks wide prematurely. However, once the task was properly placed, it delayed migrating the memory due to rate limiting. Increasing the limit fixed the problem for him. Currently, the limit is hard-coded and does not account for the real capabilities of the hardware. Even if an estimate was attempted, it would not properly account for the number of memory controllers and it could not account for the amount of bandwidth used for normal accesses. Rather than fudging, this patch simply eliminates the rate limiting. However, Jirka reports that a STREAM configuration using multiple processes achieved similar performance to 4.16. In local tests, this patch improved performance of STREAM relative to the baseline but it is somewhat machine-dependent.

mm: remove zone_id() and make use of zone_idx() in is_dev_zone()
is_dev_zone() is using zone_id() to check if the zone is ZONE_DEVICE. zone_id() looks pretty much the same as zone_idx(), and while the use of zone_idx() is quite spread in the kernel, zone_id() is only being used by is_dev_zone(). This patch removes zone_id() and makes is_dev_zone() use zone_idx() to check the zone, so we do not have two things with the same functionality around.

mm/page_alloc: don't reserve ZONE_HIGHMEM for ZONE_MOVABLE request
Freepage on ZONE_HIGHMEM doesn't work for kernel memory so it's not that important to reserve. When ZONE_MOVABLE is used, this problem would theorectically cause to decrease usable memory for GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE allocation request which is mainly used for page cache and anon page allocation. So, fix it by setting 0 to sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio[ZONE_HIGHMEM]. And, defining sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio array by MAX_NR_ZONES - 1 size makes code complex. For example, if there is highmem system, following reserve ratio is activated for *NORMAL ZONE* which would be easyily misleading people. #ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM 32 #endif This patch also fixes this situation by defining sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio array by MAX_NR_ZONES and place "#ifdef" to right place.

mm: introduce NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES
Patch series "indirectly reclaimable memory", v2. This patchset introduces the concept of indirectly reclaimable memory and applies it to fix the issue of when a big number of dentries with external names can significantly affect the MemAvailable value. This patch (of 3): Introduce a concept of indirectly reclaimable memory and adds the corresponding memory counter and /proc/vmstat item. Indirectly reclaimable memory is any sort of memory, used by the kernel (except of reclaimable slabs), which is actually reclaimable, i.e. will be released under memory pressure. The counter is in bytes, as it's not always possible to count such objects in pages. The name contains BYTES by analogy to NR_KERNEL_STACK_KB.

mm, page_alloc: wakeup kcompactd even if kswapd cannot free more memory
Kswapd will not wakeup if per-zone watermarks are not failing or if too many previous attempts at background reclaim have failed. This can be true if there is a lot of free memory available. For high- order allocations, kswapd is responsible for waking up kcompactd for background compaction. If the zone is not below its watermarks or reclaim has recently failed (lots of free memory, nothing left to reclaim), kcompactd does not get woken up. When __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is not allowed, allow kcompactd to still be woken up even if kswapd will not reclaim. This allows high-order allocations, such as thp, to still trigger background compaction even when the zone has an abundance of free memory.

mm: disable interrupts while initializing deferred pages
Vlastimil Babka reported about a window issue during which when deferred pages are initialized, and the current version of on-demand initialization is finished, allocations may fail. While this is highly unlikely scenario, since this kind of allocation request must be large, and must come from interrupt handler, we still want to cover it. We solve this by initializing deferred pages with interrupts disabled, and holding node_size_lock spin lock while pages in the node are being initialized. The on-demand deferred page initialization that comes later will use the same lock, and thus synchronize with deferred_init_memmap(). It is unlikely for threads that initialize deferred pages to be interrupted. They run soon after smp_init(), but before modules are initialized, and long before user space programs. This is why there is no adverse effect of having these threads running with interrupts disabled.

include/linux/mmzone.h: fix explanation of lower bits in the SPARSEMEM mem_map pointer
The comment is confusing. On the one hand, it refers to 32-bit alignment (struct page alignment on 32-bit platforms), but this would only guarantee that the 2 lowest bits must be zero. On the other hand, it claims that at least 3 bits are available, and 3 bits are actually used. This is not broken, because there is a stronger alignment guarantee, just less obvious. Let's fix the comment to make it clear how many bits are available and why. Although memmap arrays are allocated in various places, the resulting pointer is encoded eventually, so I am adding a BUG_ON() here to enforce at runtime that all expected bits are indeed available. I have also added a BUILD_BUG_ON to check that PFN_SECTION_SHIFT is sufficient, because this part of the calculation can be easily checked at build time.

mm/page_alloc.c: broken deferred calculation
In reset_deferred_meminit() we determine number of pages that must not
be deferred. We initialize pages for at least 2G of memory, but also
pages for reserved memory in this node.
The reserved memory is determined in this function:
memblock_reserved_memory_within(), which operates over physical
addresses, and returns size in bytes. However, reset_deferred_meminit()
assumes that that this function operates with pfns, and returns page
count.
The result is that in the best case machine boots slower than expected
due to initializing more pages than needed in single thread, and in the
worst case panics because fewer than needed pages are initialized early.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

mm/memory_hotplug: change pfn_to_section_nr/section_nr_to_pfn macro to inline function
pfn_to_section_nr() and section_nr_to_pfn() are defined as macro.
pfn_to_section_nr() has no issue even if it is defined as macro. But
section_nr_to_pfn() has overflow issue if sec is defined as int.
section_nr_to_pfn() just shifts sec by PFN_SECTION_SHIFT. If sec is
defined as unsigned long, section_nr_to_pfn() returns pfn as 64 bit value.
But if sec is defined as int, section_nr_to_pfn() returns pfn as 32 bit
value.
__remove_section() calculates start_pfn using section_nr_to_pfn() and
scn_nr defined as int. So if hot-removed memory address is over 16TB,
overflow issue occurs and section_nr_to_pfn() does not calculate correct
pfn.
To make callers use proper arg, the patch changes the macros to inline
functions.

mm: update NUMA counter threshold size
There is significant overhead in cache bouncing caused by zone counters (NUMA associated counters) update in parallel in multi-threaded page allocation (suggested by Dave Hansen). This patch updates NUMA counter threshold to a fixed size of MAX_U16 - 2, as a small threshold greatly increases the update frequency of the global counter from local per cpu counter(suggested by Ying Huang). The rationality is that these statistics counters don't affect the kernel's decision, unlike other VM counters, so it's not a problem to use a large threshold. With this patchset, we see 31.3% drop of CPU cycles(537-->369) for per single page allocation and reclaim on Jesper's page_bench03 benchmark.

mm: change the call sites of numa statistics items
Patch series "Separate NUMA statistics from zone statistics", v2. Each page allocation updates a set of per-zone statistics with a call to zone_statistics(). As discussed in 2017 MM summit, these are a substantial source of overhead in the page allocator and are very rarely consumed. This significant overhead in cache bouncing caused by zone counters (NUMA associated counters) update in parallel in multi-threaded page allocation (pointed out by Dave Hansen). A link to the MM summit slides: http://people.netfilter.org/hawk/presentations/MM-summit2017/MM-summit2017-JesperBrouer.pdf To mitigate this overhead, this patchset separates NUMA statistics from zone statistics framework, and update NUMA counter threshold to a fixed size of MAX_U16 - 2, as a small threshold greatly increases the update frequency of the global counter from local per cpu counter (suggested by Ying Huang). The rationality is that these statistics counters don't need to be read often, unlike other VM counters, so it's not a problem to use a large threshold and make readers more expensive. With this patchset, we see 31.3% drop of CPU cycles(537-->369, see below) for per single page allocation and reclaim on Jesper's page_bench03 benchmark. Meanwhile, this patchset keeps the same style of virtual memory statistics with little end-user-visible effects (only move the numa stats to show behind zone page stats, see the first patch for details). I did an experiment of single page allocation and reclaim concurrently using Jesper's page_bench03 benchmark on a 2-Socket Broadwell-based server (88 processors with 126G memory) with different size of threshold of pcp counter.

mm, memory_hotplug: drop zone from build_all_zonelists
build_all_zonelists gets a zone parameter to initialize zone's pagesets.
There is only a single user which gives a non-NULL zone parameter and
that one doesn't really need the rest of the build_all_zonelists (see

mm, page_alloc: rip out ZONELIST_ORDER_ZONE
Patch series "cleanup zonelists initialization", v1. This is aimed at cleaning up the zonelists initialization code we have but the primary motivation was bug report [2] which got resolved but the usage of stop_machine is just too ugly to live. Most patches are straightforward but 3 of them need a special consideration. Patch 1 removes zone ordered zonelists completely. I am CCing linux-api because this is a user visible change. As I argue in the patch description I do not think we have a strong usecase for it these days. I have kept sysctl in place and warn into the log if somebody tries to configure zone lists ordering. If somebody has a real usecase for it we can revert this patch but I do not expect anybody will actually notice runtime differences. This patch is not strictly needed for the rest but it made patch 6 easier to implement. Patch 7 removes stop_machine from build_all_zonelists without adding any special synchronization between iterators and updater which I _believe_ is acceptable as explained in the changelog. I hope I am not missing anything. Patch 8 then removes zonelists_mutex which is kind of ugly as well and not really needed AFAICS but a care should be taken when double checking my thinking. This patch (of 9): Supporting zone ordered zonelists costs us just a lot of code while the usefulness is arguable if existent at all. Mel has already made node ordering default on 64b systems. 32b systems are still using ZONELIST_ORDER_ZONE because it is considered better to fallback to a different NUMA node rather than consume precious lowmem zones. This argument is, however, weaken by the fact that the memory reclaim has been reworked to be node rather than zone oriented. This means that lowmem requests have to skip over all highmem pages on LRUs already and so zone ordering doesn't save the reclaim time much. So the only advantage of the zone ordering is under a light memory pressure when highmem requests do not ever hit into lowmem zones and the lowmem pressure doesn't need to reclaim. Considering that 32b NUMA systems are rather suboptimal already and it is generally advisable to use 64b kernel on such a HW I believe we should rather care about the code maintainability and just get rid of ZONELIST_ORDER_ZONE altogether. Keep systcl in place and warn if somebody tries to set zone ordering either from kernel command line or the sysctl.
