The kernel already exposes the user desired thresholds in /proc/sys/vm with dirty_background_ratio and background_ratio. But the kernel may alter the number requested without giving the user any indication that is the case. Knowing the actual ratios the kernel is honoring can help app developers understand how their buffered IO will be sent to the disk. $ grep threshold /proc/vmstat nr_dirty_threshold 409111 nr_dirty_background_threshold 818223 Signed-off-by: Michael Rubin <mrubin@google.com> Cc: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Cc: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <nickpiggin@yahoo.com.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2010-09-09mm: page allocator: calculate a better estimate of NR_FREE_PAGES when memory ↵Christoph Lameter1-1/+14
is low and kswapd is awake Ordinarily watermark checks are based on the vmstat NR_FREE_PAGES as it is cheaper than scanning a number of lists. To avoid synchronization overhead, counter deltas are maintained on a per-cpu basis and drained both periodically and when the delta is above a threshold. On large CPU systems, the difference between the estimated and real value of NR_FREE_PAGES can be very high. If NR_FREE_PAGES is much higher than number of real free page in buddy, the VM can allocate pages below min watermark, at worst reducing the real number of pages to zero. Even if the OOM killer kills some victim for freeing memory, it may not free memory if the exit path requires a new page resulting in livelock. This patch introduces a zone_page_state_snapshot() function (courtesy of Christoph) that takes a slightly more accurate view of an arbitrary vmstat counter. It is used to read NR_FREE_PAGES while kswapd is awake to avoid the watermark being accidentally broken. The estimate is not perfect and may result in cache line bounces but is expected to be lighter than the IPI calls necessary to continually drain the per-cpu counters while kswapd is awake.

2010-08-09vmscan: kill prev_priority completelyKOSAKI Motohiro1-2/+0
Since 2.6.28 zone->prev_priority is unused. Then it can be removed safely. It reduce stack usage slightly. Now I have to say that I'm sorry. 2 years ago, I thought prev_priority can be integrate again, it's useful. but four (or more) times trying haven't got good performance number. Thus I give up such approach. The rest of this changelog is notes on prev_priority and why it existed in the first place and why it might be not necessary any more. This information is based heavily on discussions between Andrew Morton, Rik van Riel and Kosaki Motohiro who is heavily quotes from. Historically prev_priority was important because it determined when the VM would start unmapping PTE pages. i.e. there are no balances of note within the VM, Anon vs File and Mapped vs Unmapped. Without prev_priority, there is a potential risk of unnecessarily increasing minor faults as a large amount of read activity of use-once pages could push mapped pages to the end of the LRU and get unmapped. There is no proof this is still a problem but currently it is not considered to be. Active files are not deactivated if the active file list is smaller than the inactive list reducing the liklihood that file-mapped pages are being pushed off the LRU and referenced executable pages are kept on the active list to avoid them getting pushed out by read activity. Even if it is a problem, prev_priority prev_priority wouldn't works nowadays. First of all, current vmscan still a lot of UP centric code. it expose some weakness on some dozens CPUs machine. I think we need more and more improvement. The problem is, current vmscan mix up per-system-pressure, per-zone-pressure and per-task-pressure a bit. example, prev_priority try to boost priority to other concurrent priority. but if the another task have mempolicy restriction, it is unnecessary, but also makes wrong big latency and exceeding reclaim. per-task based priority + prev_priority adjustment make the emulation of per-system pressure. but it have two issue 1) too rough and brutal emulation 2) we need per-zone pressure, not per-system. Another example, currently DEF_PRIORITY is 12. it mean the lru rotate about 2 cycle (1/4096 + 1/2048 + 1/1024 + .. + 1) before invoking OOM-Killer. but if 10,0000 thrreads enter DEF_PRIORITY reclaim at the same time, the system have higher memory pressure than priority==0 (1/4096*10,000 > 2). prev_priority can't solve such multithreads workload issue. In other word, prev_priority concept assume the sysmtem don't have lots threads."

2010-05-25mm: compaction: direct compact when a high-order allocation failsMel Gorman1-2/+14
Ordinarily when a high-order allocation fails, direct reclaim is entered to free pages to satisfy the allocation. With this patch, it is determined if an allocation failed due to external fragmentation instead of low memory and if so, the calling process will compact until a suitable page is freed. Compaction by moving pages in memory is considerably cheaper than paging out to disk and works where there are locked pages or no swap. If compaction fails to free a page of a suitable size, then reclaim will still occur. Direct compaction returns as soon as possible. As each block is compacted, it is checked if a suitable page has been freed and if so, it returns.

2010-05-25mm: compaction: memory compaction coreMel Gorman1-0/+7
This patch is the core of a mechanism which compacts memory in a zone by relocating movable pages towards the end of the zone. A single compaction run involves a migration scanner and a free scanner. Both scanners operate on pageblock-sized areas in the zone. The migration scanner starts at the bottom of the zone and searches for all movable pages within each area, isolating them onto a private list called migratelist. The free scanner starts at the top of the zone and searches for suitable areas and consumes the free pages within making them available for the migration scanner. The pages isolated for migration are then migrated to the newly isolated free pages.

The fragmentation fragmentation index, is only meaningful if an allocation would fail and indicates what the failure is due to. A value of -1 such as in many of the examples above states that the allocation would succeed. If it would fail, the value is between 0 and 1. A value tending towards 0 implies the allocation failed due to a lack of memory. A value tending towards 1 implies it failed due to external fragmentation.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo1-0/+1
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-01-05this_cpu: Page allocator conversionChristoph Lameter1-6/+8
Use the per cpu allocator functionality to avoid per cpu arrays in struct zone. This drastically reduces the size of struct zone for systems with large amounts of processors and allows placement of critical variables of struct zone in one cacheline even on very large systems. Another effect is that the pagesets of one processor are placed near one another. If multiple pagesets from different zones fit into one cacheline then additional cacheline fetches can be avoided on the hot paths when allocating memory from multiple zones. Bootstrap becomes simpler if we use the same scheme for UP, SMP, NUMA. #ifdefs are reduced and we can drop the zone_pcp macro. Hotplug handling is also simplified since cpu alloc can bring up and shut down cpu areas for a specific cpu as a whole. So there is no need to allocate or free individual pagesets. V7-V8: - Explain chicken egg dilemmna with percpu allocator. V4-V5: - Fix up cases where per_cpu_ptr is called before irq disable - Integrate the bootstrap logic that was separate before. tj: Build failure in pageset_cpuup_callback() due to missing ret variable fixed.

2009-12-15vmscan: have kswapd sleep for a short interval and double check it should be ↵Mel Gorman1-0/+2
asleep After kswapd balances all zones in a pgdat, it goes to sleep. In the event of no IO congestion, kswapd can go to sleep very shortly after the high watermark was reached. If there are a constant stream of allocations from parallel processes, it can mean that kswapd went to sleep too quickly and the high watermark is not being maintained for sufficient length time. This patch makes kswapd go to sleep as a two-stage process. It first tries to sleep for HZ/10. If it is woken up by another process or the high watermark is no longer met, it's considered a premature sleep and kswapd continues work. Otherwise it goes fully to sleep. This adds more counters to distinguish between fast and slow breaches of watermarks. A "fast" premature sleep is one where the low watermark was hit in a very short time after kswapd going to sleep. A "slow" premature sleep indicates that the high watermark was breached after a very short interval.

2009-06-16vmscan: count the number of times zone_reclaim() scans and failsMel Gorman1-0/+3
On NUMA machines, the administrator can configure zone_reclaim_mode that is a more targetted form of direct reclaim. On machines with large NUMA distances for example, a zone_reclaim_mode defaults to 1 meaning that clean unmapped pages will be reclaimed if the zone watermarks are not being met. There is a heuristic that determines if the scan is worthwhile but it is possible that the heuristic will fail and the CPU gets tied up scanning uselessly. Detecting the situation requires some guesswork and experimentation so this patch adds a counter "zreclaim_failed" to /proc/vmstat.

2009-05-18[ARM] Double check memmap is actually valid with a memmap has unexpected ↵Mel Gorman1-15/+4
holes V2 pfn_valid() is meant to be able to tell if a given PFN has valid memmap associated with it or not. In FLATMEM, it is expected that holes always have valid memmap as long as there is valid PFNs either side of the hole. In SPARSEMEM, it is assumed that a valid section has a memmap for the entire section. However, ARM and maybe other embedded architectures in the future free memmap backing holes to save memory on the assumption the memmap is never used. The page_zone linkages are then broken even though pfn_valid() returns true. A walker of the full memmap must then do this additional check to ensure the memmap they are looking at is sane by making sure the zone and PFN linkages are still valid. This is expensive, but walkers of the full memmap are extremely rare. This was caught before for FLATMEM and hacked around but it hits again for SPARSEMEM because the page_zone linkages can look ok where the PFN linkages are totally screwed. This looks like a hatchet job but the reality is that any clean solution would end up consumning all the memory saved by punching these unexpected holes in the memmap. For example, we tried marking the memmap within the section invalid but the section size exceeds the size of the hole in most cases so pfn_valid() starts returning false where valid memmap exists. Shrinking the size of the section would increase memory consumption offsetting the gains. This patch identifies when an architecture is punching unexpected holes in the memmap that the memory model cannot automatically detect and sets ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL. At the moment, this is restricted to EP93xx which is the model sub-architecture this has been reported on but may expand later. When set, walkers of the full memmap must call memmap_valid_within() for each PFN and passing in what it expects the page and zone to be for that PFN. If it finds the linkages to be broken, it assumes the memmap is invalid for that PFN. Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2008-10-20vmscan: second chance replacement for anonymous pagesRik van Riel1-2/+4
We avoid evicting and scanning anonymous pages for the most part, but under some workloads we can end up with most of memory filled with anonymous pages. At that point, we suddenly need to clear the referenced bits on all of memory, which can take ages on very large memory systems. We can reduce the maximum number of pages that need to be scanned by not taking the referenced state into account when deactivating an anonymous page. After all, every anonymous page starts out referenced, so why check? If an anonymous page gets referenced again before it reaches the end of the inactive list, we move it back to the active list. To keep the maximum amount of necessary work reasonable, we scale the active to inactive ratio with the size of memory, using the formula active:inactive ratio = sqrt(memory in GB * 10). Kswapd CPU use now seems to scale by the amount of pageout bandwidth, instead of by the amount of memory present in the system.

Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap ("anon"). The latter includes tmpfs. The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to find the page cache pages that it should evict. This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists. The big policy changes are in separate patches.

2008-08-27[ARM] Skip memory holes in FLATMEM when reading /proc/pagetypeinfoMel Gorman1-1/+18
Ordinarily, memory holes in flatmem still have a valid memmap and is safe to use. However, an architecture (ARM) frees up the memmap backing memory holes on the assumption it is never used. /proc/pagetypeinfo reads the whole range of pages in a zone believing that the memmap is valid and that pfn_valid will return false if it is not. On ARM, freeing the memmap breaks the page->zone linkages even though pfn_valid() returns true and the kernel can oops shortly afterwards due to accessing a bogus struct zone *. This patch lets architectures say when FLATMEM can have holes in the memmap. Rather than an expensive check for valid memory, /proc/pagetypeinfo will confirm that the page linkages are still valid by checking page->zone is still the expected zone. The lookup of page_zone is safe as there is a limited range of memory that is accessed when calling page_zone. Even if page_zone happens to return the correct zone, the impact is that the counters in /proc/pagetypeinfo are slightly off but fragmentation monitoring is unlikely to be relevant on an embedded system.

Fuse will use temporary buffers to write back dirty data from memory mappings (normal writes are done synchronously). This is needed, because there cannot be any guarantee about the time in which a write will complete. By using temporary buffers, from the MM's point if view the page is written back immediately. If the writeout was due to memory pressure, this effectively migrates data from a full zone to a less full zone.

Allocating huge pages directly from the buddy allocator is not guaranteed to succeed. Success depends on several factors (such as the amount of physical memory available and the level of fragmentation). With the addition of dynamic hugetlb pool resizing, allocations can occur much more frequently. For these reasons it is desirable to keep track of huge page allocation successes and failures. Add two new vmstat entries to track huge page allocations that succeed and fail. The presence of the two entries is contingent upon CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE being enabled.
