mm: drop useless local parameters of __register_one_node()

2017-07-10T23:32:32+00:00

__register_one_node() initializes local parameters "p_node" & "parent"
for register_node().

But, register_node() does not use them.

Remove the related code of "parent" node, cleanup __register_one_node()
and register_node().

mm, memory_hotplug: drop CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE

2017-07-06T23:24:35+00:00

Commit 20b2f52b73fe ("numa: add CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE for
movable-dedicated node") has introduced CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE without a
good explanation on why it is actually useful.

It makes a lot of sense to make movable node semantic opt in but we
already have that because the feature has to be explicitly enabled on
the kernel command line.  A config option on top only makes the
configuration space larger without a good reason.  It also adds an
additional ifdefery that pollutes the code.

Just drop the config option and make it de-facto always enabled.  This
shouldn't introduce any change to the semantic.

mm: vmstat: move slab statistics from zone to node counters

2017-07-06T23:24:35+00:00

Patch series "mm: per-lruvec slab stats"

Josef is working on a new approach to balancing slab caches and the page
cache.  For this to work, he needs slab cache statistics on the lruvec
level.  These patches implement that by adding infrastructure that
allows updating and reading generic VM stat items per lruvec, then
switches some existing VM accounting sites, including the slab
accounting ones, to this new cgroup-aware API.

I'll follow up with more patches on this, because there is actually
substantial simplification that can be done to the memory controller
when we replace private memcg accounting with making the existing VM
accounting sites cgroup-aware.  But this is enough for Josef to base his
slab reclaim work on, so here goes.

This patch (of 5):

To re-implement slab cache vs.  page cache balancing, we'll need the
slab counters at the lruvec level, which, ever since lru reclaim was
moved from the zone to the node, is the intersection of the node, not
the zone, and the memcg.

We could retain the per-zone counters for when the page allocator dumps
its memory information on failures, and have counters on both levels -
which on all but NUMA node 0 is usually redundant.  But let's keep it
simple for now and just move them.  If anybody complains we can restore
the per-zone counters.

mm, memory_hotplug: split up register_one_node()

2017-07-06T23:24:32+00:00

Memory hotplug (add_memory_resource) has to reinitialize node
infrastructure if the node is offline (one which went through the
complete add_memory(); remove_memory() cycle).  That involves node
registration to the kobj infrastructure (register_node), the proper
association with cpus (register_cpu_under_node) and finally creation of
node<->memblock symlinks (link_mem_sections).

The last part requires to know node_start_pfn and node_spanned_pages
which we currently have but a leter patch will postpone this
initialization to the onlining phase which happens later.  In fact we do
not need to rely on the early pgdat initialization even now because the
currently hot added pfn range is currently known.

Split register_one_node into core which does all the common work for the
boot time NUMA initialization and the hotplug (__register_one_node).
register_one_node keeps the full initialization while hotplug calls
__register_one_node and manually calls link_mem_sections for the proper
range.

This shouldn't introduce any functional change.

mm: drop page_initialized check from get_nid_for_pfn

2017-07-06T23:24:32+00:00

Commit c04fc586c1a4 ("mm: show node to memory section relationship with
symlinks in sysfs") has added means to export memblock<->node
association into the sysfs.  It has also introduced get_nid_for_pfn
which is a rather confusing counterpart of pfn_to_nid which checks also
whether the pfn page is already initialized (page_initialized).

This is done by checking page::lru != NULL which doesn't make any sense
at all.  Nothing in this path really relies on the lru list being used
or initialized.  Just remove it because this will become a problem with
later patches.

Thanks to Reza Arbab for testing which revealed this to be a problem

mm: Adjust system_state check

2017-05-23T08:01:36+00:00

To enable smp_processor_id() and might_sleep() debug checks earlier, it's
required to add system states between SYSTEM_BOOTING and SYSTEM_RUNNING.

get_nid_for_pfn() checks for system_state == BOOTING to decide whether to
use early_pfn_to_nid() when CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT=y.

That check is dubious, because the switch to state RUNNING happes way after
page_alloc_init_late() has been invoked.

Change the check to less than RUNNING state so it covers the new
intermediate states as well.

treewide: replace obsolete _refok by __ref

2016-08-02T21:31:41+00:00

There was only one use of __initdata_refok and __exit_refok

__init_refok was used 46 times against 82 for __ref.

Those definitions are obsolete since commit 312b1485fb50 ("Introduce new
section reference annotations tags: __ref, __refdata, __refconst")

This patch removes the following compatibility definitions and replaces
them treewide.

/* compatibility defines */
#define __init_refok     __ref
#define __initdata_refok __refdata
#define __exit_refok     __ref

I can also provide separate patches if necessary.
(One patch per tree and check in 1 month or 2 to remove old definitions)

mm: track NR_KERNEL_STACK in KiB instead of number of stacks

2016-07-28T23:07:41+00:00

Currently, NR_KERNEL_STACK tracks the number of kernel stacks in a zone.
This only makes sense if each kernel stack exists entirely in one zone,
and allowing vmapped stacks could break this assumption.

Since frv has THREAD_SIZE < PAGE_SIZE, we need to track kernel stack
allocations in a unit that divides both THREAD_SIZE and PAGE_SIZE on all
architectures.  Keep it simple and use KiB.

mm: move most file-based accounting to the node

2016-07-28T23:07:41+00:00

There are now a number of accounting oddities such as mapped file pages
being accounted for on the node while the total number of file pages are
accounted on the zone.  This can be coped with to some extent but it's
confusing so this patch moves the relevant file-based accounted.  Due to
throttling logic in the page allocator for reliable OOM detection, it is
still necessary to track dirty and writeback pages on a per-zone basis.

mm: rename NR_ANON_PAGES to NR_ANON_MAPPED

2016-07-28T23:07:41+00:00

NR_FILE_PAGES  is the number of        file pages.
NR_FILE_MAPPED is the number of mapped file pages.
NR_ANON_PAGES  is the number of mapped anon pages.

This is unhelpful naming as it's easy to confuse NR_FILE_MAPPED and
NR_ANON_PAGES for mapped pages.  This patch renames NR_ANON_PAGES so we
have

NR_FILE_PAGES  is the number of        file pages.
NR_FILE_MAPPED is the number of mapped file pages.
NR_ANON_MAPPED is the number of mapped anon pages.
