Currently folio->_deferred_list is used to keep track of partially_mapped
folios that are going to be split under memory pressure. In the next
patch, all THPs that are faulted in and collapsed by khugepaged are also
going to be tracked using _deferred_list.
This patch introduces a pageflag to be able to distinguish between
partially mapped folios and others in the deferred_list at split time in
deferred_split_scan. Its needed as __folio_remove_rmap decrements
_mapcount, _large_mapcount and _entire_mapcount, hence it won't be
possible to distinguish between partially mapped folios and others in
deferred_split_scan.
Eventhough it introduces an extra flag to track if the folio is partially
mapped, there is no functional change intended with this patch and the
flag is not useful in this patch itself, it will become useful in the next
patch when _deferred_list has non partially mapped folios.

When a THP is split, any subpage that is zero-filled will be mapped to the
shared zeropage, hence saving memory. Add selftest to verify this by
allocating zero-filled THP and comparing RssAnon before and after split.

Patch series "mm: split underused THPs", v5.
The current upstream default policy for THP is always. However, Meta uses
madvise in production as the current THP=always policy vastly
overprovisions THPs in sparsely accessed memory areas, resulting in
excessive memory pressure and premature OOM killing. Using madvise +
relying on khugepaged has certain drawbacks over THP=always. Using
madvise hints mean THPs aren't "transparent" and require userspace
changes. Waiting for khugepaged to scan memory and collapse pages into
THP can be slow and unpredictable in terms of performance (i.e. you dont
know when the collapse will happen), while production environments require
predictable performance. If there is enough memory available, its better
for both performance and predictability to have a THP from fault time,
i.e. THP=always rather than wait for khugepaged to collapse it, and deal
with sparsely populated THPs when the system is running out of memory.
This patch series is an attempt to mitigate the issue of running out of
memory when THP is always enabled. During runtime whenever a THP is being
faulted in or collapsed by khugepaged, the THP is added to a list.
Whenever memory reclaim happens, the kernel runs the deferred_split
shrinker which goes through the list and checks if the THP was underused,
i.e. how many of the base 4K pages of the entire THP were zero-filled.
If this number goes above a certain threshold, the shrinker will attempt
to split that THP. Then at remap time, the pages that were zero-filled
are mapped to the shared zeropage, hence saving memory. This method
avoids the downside of wasting memory in areas where THP is sparsely
filled when THP is always enabled, while still providing the upside THPs
like reduced TLB misses without having to use madvise.
Meta production workloads that were CPU bound (>99% CPU utilzation) were
tested with THP shrinker. The results after 2 hours are as follows:
| THP=madvise | THP=always | THP=always
| | | + shrinker series
| | | + max_ptes_none=409
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Performance improvement | - | +1.8% | +1.7%
(over THP=madvise) | | |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Memory usage | 54.6G | 58.8G (+7.7%) | 55.9G (+2.4%)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
max_ptes_none=409 means that any THP that has more than 409 out of 512
(80%) zero filled filled pages will be split.
To test out the patches, the below commands without the shrinker will
invoke OOM killer immediately and kill stress, but will not fail with the
shrinker:
echo 450 > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/max_ptes_none
mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cgroup.procs
echo 20M > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/memory.max
echo 0 > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/memory.swap.max
# allocate twice memory.max for each stress worker and touch 40/512 of
# each THP, i.e. vm-stride 50K.
# With the shrinker, max_ptes_none of 470 and below won't invoke OOM
# killer.
# Without the shrinker, OOM killer is invoked immediately irrespective
# of max_ptes_none value and kills stress.
stress --vm 1 --vm-bytes 40M --vm-stride 50K
This patch (of 5):
Here being unused means containing only zeros and inaccessible to
userspace. When splitting an isolated thp under reclaim or migration, the
unused subpages can be mapped to the shared zeropage, hence saving memory.
This is particularly helpful when the internal fragmentation of a thp is
high, i.e. it has many untouched subpages.
This is also a prerequisite for THP low utilization shrinker which will be
introduced in later patches, where underutilized THPs are split, and the
zero-filled pages are freed saving memory.

Three points for this change:
1. We should consolidate all warnings in one place. Currently, the
order > 1 warning is in the hotpath, while others are in less
likely scenarios. Moving all warnings to the slowpath will reduce
the overhead for order > 1 and increase the visibility of other
warnings.
2. We currently have two warnings for order: one for order > 1 in
the hotpath and another for order > costly_order in the laziest
path. I suggest standardizing on order > 1 since it's been in
use for a long time.
3. We don't need to check for __GFP_NOWARN in this case. __GFP_NOWARN
is meant to suppress allocation failure reports, but here we're
dealing with bug detection, not allocation failures. So replace
WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP by WARN_ON_ONCE.

Patch series "mm/vdpa: correct misuse of non-direct-reclaim __GFP_NOFAIL
and improve related doc and warn", v4.
__GFP_NOFAIL carries the semantics of never failing, so its callers do not
check the return value:
%__GFP_NOFAIL: The VM implementation _must_ retry infinitely: the caller
cannot handle allocation failures. The allocation could block
indefinitely but will never return with failure. Testing for
failure is pointless.
However, __GFP_NOFAIL can sometimes fail if it exceeds size limits or is
used with GFP_ATOMIC/GFP_NOWAIT in a non-sleepable context. This patchset
handles illegal using __GFP_NOFAIL together with GFP_ATOMIC lacking
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM(without this, we can't do anything to reclaim memory
to satisfy the nofail requirement) and improve related document and
warnings.
The proper size limits for __GFP_NOFAIL will be handled separately after
more discussions.
This patch (of 3):
mm doesn't support non-blockable __GFP_NOFAIL allocation. Because
persisting in providing __GFP_NOFAIL services for non-block users who
cannot perform direct memory reclaim may only result in an endless busy
loop.
Therefore, in such cases, the current mm-core may directly return a NULL
pointer:
static inline struct page *
__alloc_pages_slowpath(gfp_t gfp_mask, unsigned int order,
struct alloc_context *ac)
{
...
if (gfp_mask & __GFP_NOFAIL) {
/*
* All existing users of the __GFP_NOFAIL are blockable, so warn
* of any new users that actually require GFP_NOWAIT
*/
if (WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP(!can_direct_reclaim, gfp_mask))
goto fail;
...
}
...
fail:
warn_alloc(gfp_mask, ac->nodemask,
"page allocation failure: order:%u", order);
got_pg:
return page;
}
Unfortuantely, vpda does that nofail allocation under non-sleepable lock.
A possible way to fix that is to move the pages allocation out of the lock
into the caller, but having to allocate a huge number of pages and
auxiliary page array seems to be problematic as well per Tetsuon: " You
should implement proper error handling instead of using __GFP_NOFAIL if
count can become large."
So I chose another way, which does not release kernel bounce pages when
user tries to register userspace bounce pages. Then we can avoid
allocating in paths where failure is not expected.(e.g in the release).
We pay this for more memory usage as we don't release kernel bounce pages
but further optimizations could be done on top.

The mutex array pointer shares a cacheline with the spinlock:
ffffffff84187480 B hugetlb_fault_mutex_table
ffffffff84187488 B hugetlb_lock
This is because the former is annotated with a macro forcing cacheline
alignment. I suspect it was meant to be the variant which on top of it
makes sure the object does not share the cacheline with anyone.
Since array pointer itself is de facto read-only such an annotation does
not make sense there anyway. Instead mark it __ro_after_init along with
the size var.
Do however move the spinlock out of the way.

Although shmem_get_folio_gfp() is correctly putting inodes on the

Generalize that; and to handle the mixture of sizes more sensibly,
shmem_alloc_and_add_folio() give it a number of pages to be freed
(approximate: no need to minimize that with an exact calculation) instead
of a number of inodes to split.

There has been a long-standing and very minor off-by-one, where
shmem_get_folio_gfp() decides if a large folio extends beyond i_size far
enough to leave a page or more for freeing later under pressure.
This is not something needed for stable: but it will be proportionately
more significant as support for smaller large folios is added, and is best
fixed before duplicating the check in other places.

This reverts commit 0742cadf5e4c ("mm/damon/lru_sort: adjust local
variable to dynamic allocation").
The commit was introduced to avoid unnecessary usage of stack memory for
per-scheme region priorities histogram buffer. The fix is nice, but the
point of the fix looks not very clear if the commit message is not read
together. That's mainly because the buffer is a private field, which
means it is hidden from the DAMON API users. That's not the fault of the
fix but the underlying data structure.
Now the per-scheme histogram buffer is gone, so the problem that the
commit was fixing is also removed. The use of kmemdup() has no more point
but just making the code bit difficult to understand. Revert the fix.

Each DAMOS quota (struct damos_quota) maintains a histogram for total
regions size per its prioritization score. DAMOS calcultes minimum
prioritization score of regions that are ok to apply the DAMOS action to
while respecting the quota. The histogram is constructed only for the
calculation of the minimum score in damos_adjust_quota() for each quota
which called by kdamond_fn().
Hence, there is no real reason to have per-quota histogram. Only
per-kdamond histogram is needed, since parallel kdamonds could have races
otherwise. The current implementation is only wasting the memory, and can
easily cause unintended stack usage[1].
So, introducing a per-kdamond histogram and replacing the per-quota one
with it would be the right solution for the issue. However, supporting
multiple DAMON contexts per kdamond is still an ongoing work[2] without a
clear estimated time of arrival. Meanwhile, per-context histogram could
be an effective and straightforward solution having no blocker. Let's fix
the problem first in the way.
This patch (of 4):
Introduce per-context buffer for region priority scores-total size
histogram. Same to the per-quota one (->histogram of struct damos_quota),
the new buffer is hidden from DAMON API users by being defined as a
private field of DAMON context structure. It is dynamically allocated and
de-allocated at the beginning and ending of the execution of the kdamond
by kdamond_fn() itself.

When a THP is added to the deferred_list due to partially mapped, its
partial pages are unused, leading to wasted memory and potentially
increasing memory reclamation pressure.
Detailing the specifics of how unmapping occurs is quite difficult and not
that useful, so we adopt a simple approach: each time a THP enters the
deferred_list, we increment the count by 1; whenever it leaves for any
reason, we decrement the count by 1.

Patch series "mm: count the number of anonymous THPs per size", v4.
Knowing the number of transparent anon THPs in the system is crucial
for performance analysis. It helps in understanding the ratio and
distribution of THPs versus small folios throughout the system.
Additionally, partial unmapping by userspace can lead to significant waste
of THPs over time and increase memory reclamation pressure. We need this
information for comprehensive system tuning.
This patch (of 2):
Let's track for each anonymous THP size, how many of them are currently
allocated. We'll track the complete lifespan of an anon THP, starting
when it becomes an anon THP ("large anon folio") (->mapping gets set),
until it gets freed (->mapping gets cleared).
Introduce a new "nr_anon" counter per THP size and adjust the
corresponding counter in the following cases:
* We allocate a new THP and call folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to map
it the first time and turn it into an anon THP.
* We split an anon THP into multiple smaller ones.
* We migrate an anon THP, when we prepare the destination.
* We free an anon THP back to the buddy.
Note that AnonPages in /proc/meminfo currently tracks the total number of
*mapped* anonymous *pages*, and therefore has slightly different
semantics. In the future, we might also want to track "nr_anon_mapped"
for each THP size, which might be helpful when comparing it to the number
of allocated anon THPs (long-term pinning, stuck in swapcache, memory
leaks, ...).
Further note that for now, we only track anon THPs after they got their
->mapping set, for example via folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). If we would
allocate some in the swapcache, they will only show up in the statistics
for now after they have been mapped to user space the first time, where we
call folio_add_new_anon_rmap().

Previously we had a situation where shmem mTHP controls and stats were not
exposed for some supported sizes and were exposed for some unsupported
sizes. So let's clean that up.
Anon mTHP can support all large orders [2, PMD_ORDER]. But shmem can
support all large orders [1, MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER]. However, per-size
shmem controls and stats were previously being exposed for all the anon
mTHP orders, meaning order-1 was not present, and for arm64 64K base
pages, orders 12 and 13 were exposed but were not supported internally.
Tidy this all up by defining ctrl and stats attribute groups for anon and
file separately. Anon ctrl and stats groups are populated for all orders
in THP_ORDERS_ALL_ANON and file ctrl and stats groups are populated for
all orders in THP_ORDERS_ALL_FILE_DEFAULT.
Additionally, create "any" ctrl and stats attribute groups which are
populated for all orders in (THP_ORDERS_ALL_ANON |
THP_ORDERS_ALL_FILE_DEFAULT). swpout stats use this since they apply to
anon and shmem.
The side-effect of all this is that different hugepage-*kB directories
contain different sets of controls and stats, depending on which memory
types support that size. This approach is preferred over the alternative,
which is to populate dummy controls and stats for memory types that do not
support a given size.

Patch series "Shmem mTHP controls and stats improvements", v3.
This is a small series to tidy up the way the shmem controls and stats are
exposed. These patches were previously part of the series at [2], but I
decided to split them out since they can go in independently.
This patch (of 2):
Let's move count_mthp_stat() so that it's always defined, even when THP is
disabled. Previously uses of the function in files such as shmem.c, which
are compiled even when THP is disabled, required ugly THP ifdeferry. With
this cleanup, we can remove those ifdefs and the function resolves to a
nop when THP is disabled.
I shortly plan to call count_mthp_stat() from more THP-invariant source
files.

Commit b15c87263a ("hwpoison, memory_hotplug: allow hwpoisoned pages to

if offline a hwpoison hugetlb page, luckly, after the commit e591ef7d96
("mm, hwpoison,hugetlb,memory_hotplug: hotremove memory section with
hwpoisoned hugepage"), the HPageMigratable of hugetlb page will be
cleared, and the hwpoison hugetlb page will be skipped in
scan_movable_pages(), so the endless loop issue is fixed.
However if the HPageMigratable() check passed(without reference and lock),
the hugetlb page may be hwpoisoned, it won't cause issue since the
hwpoisoned page will be handled correctly in the next movable pages scan
loop, and it will be isolated in do_migrate_range() but fails to migrate.
In order to avoid the unnecessary isolation and unify all hwpoisoned page
handling, let's unconditionally check hwpoison firstly, and if it is a
hwpoisoned hugetlb page, try to unmap it as the catch all safety net like
normal page does.

Problem statement:
Since commit fc137c0dda ("sched/numa: enhance vma scanning logic"), the
Numa vma scan overhead has been reduced a lot. Meanwhile, the reducing of
the vma scan might create less Numa page fault information. The
insufficient information makes it harder for the Numa balancer to make
decision. Later, commit b7a5b537c5 ("sched/numa: Complete scanning of
partial VMAs regardless of PID activity") and commit 84db47ca71
("sched/numa: Fix mm numa_scan_seq based unconditional scan") are found to
bring back part of the performance.
Recently when running SPECcpu omnetpp_r on a 320 CPUs/2 Sockets system, a
long duration of remote Numa node read was observed by PMU events: A few
cores having ~500MB/s remote memory access for ~20 seconds. It causes
high core-to-core variance and performance penalty. After the
investigation, it is found that many vmas are skipped due to the active
PID check. According to the trace events, in most cases,
vma_is_accessed() returns false because the history access info stored in
pids_active array has been cleared.
Proposal:
The main idea is to adjust vma_is_accessed() to let it return true easier.
Thus compare the diff between mm->numa_scan_seq and
vma->numab_state->prev_scan_seq. If the diff has exceeded the threshold,
scan the vma.
This patch especially helps the cases where there are small number of
threads, like the process-based SPECcpu. Without this patch, if the
SPECcpu process access the vma at the beginning, then sleeps for a long
time, the pid_active array will be cleared. A a result, if this process
is woken up again, it never has a chance to set prot_none anymore.
Because only the first 2 times of access is granted for vma scan:
(current->mm->numa_scan_seq) - vma->numab_state->start_scan_seq) < 2 to be
worse, no other threads within the task can help set the prot_none. This
causes information lost.
Raghavendra helped test current patch and got the positive result
on the AMD platform:

The aim is to simplify and making the vm_area_alloc_pages()
function less confusing as it became more clogged nowadays:
- eliminate a "bulk_gfp" variable and do not overwrite a gfp
flag for bulk allocator;
- drop __GFP_NOFAIL flag for high-order-page requests on upper
layer. It becomes less spread between levels when it comes to
__GFP_NOFAIL allocations;
- add a comment about a fallback path if high-order attempt is
unsuccessful because for such cases __GFP_NOFAIL is dropped;
- fix a typo in a commit message.

In commit 714965ca82 ("mm/mmap: start distinguishing if vma can be
removed in mergeability test") we relaxed the VMA merge rules for VMAs
possessing a vm_ops->close() hook, permitting this operation in instances
where we wouldn't delete the VMA as part of the merge operation.
This was later corrected in commit fc0c8f9089 ("mm, mmap: fix
vma_merge() case 7 with vma_ops->close") to account for a subtle case that
the previous commit had not taken into account.
In both instances, we first rely on is_mergeable_vma() to determine
whether we might be dealing with a VMA that might be removed, taking
advantage of the fact that a 'previous' VMA will never be deleted, only
VMAs that follow it.
The second patch corrects the instance where a merge of the previous VMA
into a subsequent one did not correctly check whether the subsequent VMA
had a vm_ops->close() handler.
Both changes prevent merge cases that are actually permissible (for
instance a merge of a VMA into a following VMA with a vm_ops->close(), but
with no previous VMA, which would result in the next VMA being extended,
not deleted).
In addition, both changes fail to consider the case where a VMA that would
otherwise be merged with the previous and next VMA might have
vm_ops->close(), on the assumption that for this to be the case, all three
would have to have the same vma->vm_file to be mergeable and thus the same
vm_ops.
And in addition both changes operate at 50,000 feet, trying to guess
whether a VMA will be deleted.
As we have majorly refactored the VMA merge operation and de-duplicated
code to the point where we know precisely where deletions will occur, this
patch removes the aforementioned checks altogether and instead explicitly
checks whether a VMA will be deleted.
In cases where a reduced merge is still possible (where we merge both
previous and next VMA but the next VMA has a vm_ops->close hook, meaning
we could just merge the previous and current VMA), we do so, otherwise the
merge is not permitted.
We take advantage of our userland testing to assert that this functions
correctly - replacing the previous limited vm_ops->close() tests with
tests for every single case where we delete a VMA.
We also update all testing for both new and modified VMAs to set
vma->vm_ops->close() in every single instance where this would not prevent
the merge, to assert that we never do so.

The existing vma_merge() function is no longer required to handle what
were previously referred to as cases 1-3 (i.e. the merging of a new VMA),
as this is now handled by vma_merge_new_vma().
Additionally, simplify the convoluted control flow of the original,
maintaining identical logic only expressed more clearly and doing away
with a complicated set of cases, rather logically examining each possible
outcome - merging of both the previous and subsequent VMA, merging of the
previous VMA and merging of the subsequent VMA alone.
We now utilise the previously implemented commit_merge() function to share
logic with vma_expand() de-duplicating code and providing less surface
area for bugs and confusion. In order to do so, we adjust this function
to accept parameters specific to merging existing ranges.

Pull the part of vma_expand() which actually commits the merge operation,
that is inserts it into the maple tree and sets the VMA's vma->vm_start
and vma->vm_end parameters, into its own function.
We implement only the parts needed for vma_expand() which now as a result
of previous work is also the means by which new VMA ranges are merged.
The next commit in the series will implement merging of existing ranges
which will extend commit_merge() to accommodate this case and result in
all merges using this common code.

Now we have abstracted merge behaviour for new VMA ranges, we are able to
render vma_prepare(), init_vma_prep(), vma_complete(),
can_vma_merge_before() and can_vma_merge_after() static and internal to
vma.c.
These are internal implementation details of kernel VMA manipulation and
merging mechanisms and thus should not be exposed. This also renders the
functions userland testable.
