2024-12-14mm/mempolicy: fix migrate_to_node() assuming there is at least one VMA in a MMDavid Hildenbrand1-0/+4
commit 091c1dd2d4df6edd1beebe0e5863d4034ade9572 upstream. We currently assume that there is at least one VMA in a MM, which isn't true. So we might end up having find_vma() return NULL, to then de-reference NULL. So properly handle find_vma() returning NULL.

2024-09-03mm,memcg: provide per-cgroup counters for NUMA balancing operationsKaiyang Zhao1-1/+3
The ability to observe the demotion and promotion decisions made by the kernel on a per-cgroup basis is important for monitoring and tuning containerized workloads on machines equipped with tiered memory. Different containers in the system may experience drastically different memory tiering actions that cannot be distinguished from the global counters alone. For example, a container running a workload that has a much hotter memory accesses will likely see more promotions and fewer demotions, potentially depriving a colocated container of top tier memory to such an extent that its performance degrades unacceptably. For another example, some containers may exhibit longer periods between data reuse, causing much more numa_hint_faults than numa_pages_migrated. In this case, tuning hot_threshold_ms may be appropriate, but the signal can easily be lost if only global counters are available. In the long term, we hope to introduce per-cgroup control of promotion and demotion actions to implement memory placement policies in tiering. This patch set adds seven counters to memory.stat in a cgroup: numa_pages_migrated, numa_pte_updates, numa_hint_faults, pgdemote_kswapd, pgdemote_khugepaged, pgdemote_direct and pgpromote_success. pgdemote_* and pgpromote_success are also available in memory.numa_stat. count_memcg_events_mm() is added to count multiple event occurrences at once, and get_mem_cgroup_from_folio() is added because we need to get a reference to the memcg of a folio before it's migrated to track numa_pages_migrated. The accounting of PGDEMOTE_* is moved to shrink_inactive_list() before being changed to per-cgroup.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld: "This adds getrandom() support to the vDSO. First, it adds a new kind of mapping to mmap(2), MAP_DROPPABLE, which lets the kernel zero out pages anytime under memory pressure, which enables allocating memory that never gets swapped to disk but also doesn't count as being mlocked. Then, the vDSO implementation of getrandom() is introduced in a generic manner and hooked into random.c. Next, this is implemented on x86. (Also, though it's not ready for this pull, somebody has begun an arm64 implementation already) Finally, two vDSO selftests are added. There are also two housekeeping cleanup commits" * tag 'random-6.11-rc1-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random: MAINTAINERS: add random.h headers to RNG subsection random: note that RNDGETPOOL was removed in 2.6.9-rc2 selftests/vDSO: add tests for vgetrandom x86: vdso: Wire up getrandom() vDSO implementation random: introduce generic vDSO getrandom() implementation mm: add MAP_DROPPABLE for designating always lazily freeable mappings
2024-07-19mm: add MAP_DROPPABLE for designating always lazily freeable mappingsJason A. Donenfeld1-0/+3
The vDSO getrandom() implementation works with a buffer allocated with a new system call that has certain requirements: - It shouldn't be written to core dumps. * Easy: VM_DONTDUMP. - It should be zeroed on fork. * Easy: VM_WIPEONFORK. - It shouldn't be written to swap. * Uh-oh: mlock is rlimited. * Uh-oh: mlock isn't inherited by forks. - It shouldn't reserve actual memory, but it also shouldn't crash when page faulting in memory if none is available * Uh-oh: VM_NORESERVE means segfaults. It turns out that the vDSO getrandom() function has three really nice characteristics that we can exploit to solve this problem: 1) Due to being wiped during fork(), the vDSO code is already robust to having the contents of the pages it reads zeroed out midway through the function's execution. 2) In the absolute worst case of whatever contingency we're coding for, we have the option to fallback to the getrandom() syscall, and everything is fine. 3) The buffers the function uses are only ever useful for a maximum of 60 seconds -- a sort of cache, rather than a long term allocation. These characteristics mean that we can introduce VM_DROPPABLE, which has the following semantics: a) It never is written out to swap. b) Under memory pressure, mm can just drop the pages (so that they're zero when read back again). c) It is inherited by fork. d) It doesn't count against the mlock budget, since nothing is locked. e) If there's not enough memory to service a page fault, it's not fatal, and no signal is sent. This way, allocations used by vDSO getrandom() can use: VM_DROPPABLE | VM_DONTDUMP | VM_WIPEONFORK | VM_NORESERVE And there will be no problem with OOMing, crashing on overcommitment, using memory when not in use, not wiping on fork(), coredumps, or writing out to swap. In order to let vDSO getrandom() use this, expose these via mmap(2) as MAP_DROPPABLE. Note that this involves removing the MADV_FREE special case from sort_folio(), which according to Yu Zhao is unnecessary and will simply result in an extra call to shrink_folio_list() in the worst case. The chunk removed reenables the swapbacked flag, which we don't want for VM_DROPPABLE, and we can't conditionalize it here because there isn't a vma reference available. Finally, the provided self test ensures that this is working as desired. Cc: linux-mm@kvack.org Acked-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>
2024-07-17mm/numa_balancing: teach mpol_to_str about the balancing modeTvrtko Ursulin1-4/+14
Since balancing mode was added in bda420b98505 ("numa balancing: migrate on fault among multiple bound nodes"), it was possible to set this mode but it wouldn't be shown in /proc/<pid>/numa_maps since there was no support for it in the mpol_to_str() helper. Furthermore, because the balancing mode sets the MPOL_F_MORON flag, it would be displayed as 'default' due a workaround introduced a few years earlier in 8790c71a18e5 ("mm/mempolicy.c: fix mempolicy printing in numa_maps"). To tidy this up we implement two changes: Replace the MPOL_F_MORON check by pointer comparison against the preferred_node_policy array. By doing this we generalise the current special casing and replace the incorrect 'default' with the correct 'bind' for the mode. Secondly, we add a string representation and corresponding handling for the MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING flag. With the two changes together we start showing the balancing flag when it is set and therefore complete the fix. Representation format chosen is to separate multiple flags with vertical bars, following what existed long time ago in kernel 2.6.25. But as between then and now there wasn't a way to display multiple flags, this patch does not change the format in practice.

On powerpc 8xx huge_ptep_get() will need to know whether the given ptep is a PTE entry or a PMD entry. This cannot be known with the PMD entry itself because there is no easy way to know it from the content of the entry. So huge_ptep_get() will need to know either the size of the page or get the pmd.

2024-04-25mm: convert folio_estimated_sharers() to folio_likely_mapped_shared()David Hildenbrand1-8/+6
Callers of folio_estimated_sharers() only care about "mapped shared vs. mapped exclusively", not the exact estimate of sharers. Let's consolidate and unify the condition users are checking. While at it clarify the semantics and extend the discussion on the fuzziness. Use the "likely mapped shared" terminology to better express what the (adjusted) function actually checks. Whether a partially-mappable folio is more likely to not be partially mapped than partially mapped is debatable. In the future, we might be able to improve our estimate for partially-mappable folios, though. Note that we will now consistently detect "mapped shared" only if the first subpage is actually mapped multiple times. When the first subpage is not mapped, we will consistently detect it as "mapped exclusively". This change should currently only affect the usage in madvise_free_pte_range() and queue_folios_pte_range() for large folios: if the first page was already unmapped, we would have skipped the folio.

2024-04-25mm: hugetlb: make the hugetlb migration strategy consistentBaolin Wang1-1/+2
As discussed in previous thread [1], there is an inconsistency when handing hugetlb migration. When handling the migration of freed hugetlb, it prevents fallback to other NUMA nodes in alloc_and_dissolve_hugetlb_folio(). However, when dealing with in-use hugetlb, it allows fallback to other NUMA nodes in alloc_hugetlb_folio_nodemask(), which can break the per-node hugetlb pool and might result in unexpected failures when node bound workloads doesn't get what is asssumed available. To make hugetlb migration strategy more clear, we should list all the scenarios of hugetlb migration and analyze whether allocation fallback is permitted: 1) Memory offline: will call dissolve_free_huge_pages() to free the freed hugetlb, and call do_migrate_range() to migrate the in-use hugetlb. Both can break the per-node hugetlb pool, but as this is an explicit offlining operation, no better choice. So should allow the hugetlb allocation fallback. 2) Memory failure: same as memory offline. Should allow fallback to a different node might be the only option to handle it, otherwise the impact of poisoned memory can be amplified. 3) Longterm pinning: will call migrate_longterm_unpinnable_pages() to migrate in-use and not-longterm-pinnable hugetlb, which can break the per-node pool. But we should fail to longterm pinning if can not allocate on current node to avoid breaking the per-node pool. 4) Syscalls (mbind, migrate_pages, move_pages): these are explicit users operation to move pages to other nodes, so fallback to other nodes should not be prohibited. 5) alloc_contig_range: used by CMA allocation and virtio-mem fake-offline to allocate given range of pages. Now the freed hugetlb migration is not allowed to fallback, to keep consistency, the in-use hugetlb migration should be also not allowed to fallback. 6) alloc_contig_pages: used by kfence, pgtable_debug etc. The strategy should be consistent with that of alloc_contig_range(). Based on the analysis of the various scenarios above, introducing a new helper to determine whether fallback is permitted according to the migration reason..

2024-04-25mm/numa_balancing: allow migrate on protnone reference with ↵Donet Tom1-5/+17
MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY policy commit bda420b98505 ("numa balancing: migrate on fault among multiple bound nodes") added support for migrate on protnone reference with MPOL_BIND memory policy. This allowed numa fault migration when the executing node is part of the policy mask for MPOL_BIND. This patch extends migration support to MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY policy. Currently, we cannot specify MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY with the mempolicy flag MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING. This causes issues when we want to use NUMA_BALANCING_MEMORY_TIERING. To effectively use the slow memory tier, the kernel should not allocate pages from the slower memory tier via allocation control zonelist fallback. Instead, we should move cold pages from the faster memory node via memory demotion. For a page allocation, kswapd is only woken up after we try to allocate pages from all nodes in the allocation zone list. This implies that, without using memory policies, we will end up allocating hot pages in the slower memory tier. MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY was added by commit b27abaccf8e8 ("mm/mempolicy: add MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY for multiple preferred nodes") to allow better allocation control when we have memory tiers in the system. With MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY, the user can use a policy node mask consisting only of faster memory nodes. When we fail to allocate pages from the faster memory node, kswapd would be woken up, allowing demotion of cold pages to slower memory nodes. With the current kernel, such usage of memory policies implies we can't do page promotion from a slower memory tier to a faster memory tier using numa fault. This patch fixes this issue. For MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY, if the executing node is in the policy node mask, we allow numa migration to the executing nodes. If the executing node is not in the policy node mask, we do not allow numa migration. Example: On a 2-sockets system, NUMA node N0, N1 and N2 are in socket 0, N3 in socket 1. N0, N1 and N3 have fast memory and CPU, while N2 has slow memory and no CPU. For a workload, we may use MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY with nodemask N0 and N1 set because the workload runs on CPUs of socket 0 at most times. Then, even if the workload runs on CPUs of N3 occasionally, we will not try to migrate the workload pages from N2 to N3 because users may want to avoid cross-socket access as much as possible in the long term.

We can detect this with tsk->mems_allowed_seq and prevent a miscount or an allocation failure from occurring.

2024-02-22mm/mempolicy: introduce MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE for weighted interleavingGregory Price1-4/+214
When a system has multiple NUMA nodes and it becomes bandwidth hungry, using the current MPOL_INTERLEAVE could be an wise option. However, if those NUMA nodes consist of different types of memory such as socket-attached DRAM and CXL/PCIe attached DRAM, the round-robin based interleave policy does not optimally distribute data to make use of their different bandwidth characteristics. Instead, interleave is more effective when the allocation policy follows each NUMA nodes' bandwidth weight rather than a simple 1:1 distribution. This patch introduces a new memory policy, MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE, enabling weighted interleave between NUMA nodes. Weighted interleave allows for proportional distribution of memory across multiple numa nodes, preferably apportioned to match the bandwidth of each node. For example, if a system has 1 CPU node (0), and 2 memory nodes (0,1), with bandwidth of (100GB/s, 50GB/s) respectively, the appropriate weight distribution is (2:1). Weights for each node can be assigned via the new sysfs extension: /sys/kernel/mm/mempolicy/weighted_interleave/ For now, the default value of all nodes will be `1`, which matches the behavior of standard 1:1 round-robin interleave. An extension will be added in the future to allow default values to be registered at kernel and device bringup time. The policy allocates a number of pages equal to the set weights. For example, if the weights are (2,1), then 2 pages will be allocated on node0 for every 1 page allocated on node1. The new flag MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE can be used in set_mempolicy(2) and mbind(2). Some high level notes about the pieces of weighted interleave: current->il_prev: Tracks the node previously allocated from. current->il_weight: The active weight of the current node (current->il_prev) When this reaches 0, current->il_prev is set to the next node and current->il_weight is set to the next weight. weighted_interleave_nodes: Counts the number of allocations as they occur, and applies the weight for the current node. When the weight reaches 0, switch to the next node. Operates only on task->mempolicy. weighted_interleave_nid: Gets the total weight of the nodemask as well as each individual node weight, then calculates the node based on the given index. Operates on VMA policies. bulk_array_weighted_interleave: Gets the total weight of the nodemask as well as each individual node weight, then calculates the number of "interleave rounds" as well as any delta ("partial round"). Calculates the number of pages for each node and allocates them. If a node was scheduled for interleave via interleave_nodes, the current weight will be allocated first. Operates only on the task->mempolicy. One piece of complexity is the interaction between a recent refactor which split the logic to acquire the "ilx" (interleave index) of an allocation and the actually application of the interleave. If a call to alloc_pages_mpol() were made with a weighted-interleave policy and ilx set to NO_INTERLEAVE_INDEX, weighted_interleave_nodes() would operate on a VMA policy - violating the description above. An inspection of all callers of alloc_pages_mpol() shows that all external callers set ilx to `0`, an index value, or will call get_vma_policy() to acquire the ilx. For example, mm/shmem.c may call into alloc_pages_mpol. The call stacks all set (pgoff_t ilx) or end up in `get_vma_policy()`. This enforces the `weighted_interleave_nodes()` and `weighted_interleave_nid()` policy requirements (task/vma respectively).

2024-02-22mm/mempolicy: implement the sysfs-based weighted_interleave interfaceRakie Kim1-0/+223
Patch series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs extension", v5. Weighted interleave is a new interleave policy intended to make use of heterogeneous memory environments appearing with CXL. The existing interleave mechanism does an even round-robin distribution of memory across all nodes in a nodemask, while weighted interleave distributes memory across nodes according to a provided weight. (Weight = # of page allocations per round) Weighted interleave is intended to reduce average latency when bandwidth is pressured - therefore increasing total throughput. In other words: It allows greater use of the total available bandwidth in a heterogeneous hardware environment (different hardware provides different bandwidth capacity). As bandwidth is pressured, latency increases - first linearly and then exponentially. By keeping bandwidth usage distributed according to available bandwidth, we therefore can reduce the average latency of a cacheline fetch. A good explanation of the bandwidth vs latency response curve: https://mahmoudhatem.wordpress.com/2017/11/07/memory-bandwidth-vs-latency-response-curve/ From the article: ``` Constant region: The latency response is fairly constant for the first 40% of the sustained bandwidth. Linear region: In between 40% to 80% of the sustained bandwidth, the latency response increases almost linearly with the bandwidth demand of the system due to contention overhead by numerous memory requests. Exponential region: Between 80% to 100% of the sustained bandwidth, the memory latency is dominated by the contention latency which can be as much as twice the idle latency or more. Maximum sustained bandwidth : Is 65% to 75% of the theoretical maximum bandwidth. ``` As a general rule of thumb: * If bandwidth usage is low, latency does not increase. It is optimal to place data in the nearest (lowest latency) device. * If bandwidth usage is high, latency increases. It is optimal to place data such that bandwidth use is optimized per-device. This is the top line goal: Provide a user a mechanism to target using the "maximum sustained bandwidth" of each hardware component in a heterogenous memory system. For example, the stream benchmark demonstrates that 1:1 (default) interleave is actively harmful, while weighted interleave can be beneficial. Default interleave distributes data such that too much pressure is placed on devices with lower available bandwidth. Stream Benchmark (vs DRAM, 1 Socket + 1 CXL Device) Default interleave : -78% (slower than DRAM) Global weighting : -6% to +4% (workload dependant) Targeted weights : +2.5% to +4% (consistently better than DRAM) Global means the task-policy was set (set_mempolicy), while targeted means VMA policies were set (mbind2). We see weighted interleave is not always beneficial when applied globally, but is always beneficial when applied to bandwidth-driving memory regions. There are 4 patches in this set: 1) Implement system-global interleave weights as sysfs extension in mm/mempolicy.c. These weights are RCU protected, and a default weight set is provided (all weights are 1 by default). In future work, we intend to expose an interface for HMAT/CDAT code to set reasonable default values based on the memory configuration of the system discovered at boot/hotplug. 2) A mild refactor of some interleave-logic for re-use in the new weighted interleave logic. 3) MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE extension for set_mempolicy/mbind 4) Protect interleave logic (weighted and normal) with the mems_allowed seq cookie. If the nodemask changes while accessing it during a rebind, just retry the access. Included below are some performance and LTP test information, and a sample numactl branch which can be used for testing. = Performance summary = (tests may have different configurations, see extended info below) 1) MLC (W2) : +38% over DRAM. +264% over default interleave.
