Each zone that holds userspace pages of one workload must be aged at a
speed proportional to the zone size. Otherwise, the time an individual
page gets to stay in memory depends on the zone it happened to be
allocated in. Asymmetry in the zone aging creates rather unpredictable
aging behavior and results in the wrong pages being reclaimed, activated
etc.
But exactly this happens right now because of the way the page allocator
and kswapd interact. The page allocator uses per-node lists of all zones
in the system, ordered by preference, when allocating a new page. When
the first iteration does not yield any results, kswapd is woken up and the
allocator retries. Due to the way kswapd reclaims zones below the high
watermark while a zone can be allocated from when it is above the low
watermark, the allocator may keep kswapd running while kswapd reclaim
ensures that the page allocator can keep allocating from the first zone in
the zonelist for extended periods of time. Meanwhile the other zones
rarely see new allocations and thus get aged much slower in comparison.
The result is that the occasional page placed in lower zones gets
relatively more time in memory, even gets promoted to the active list
after its peers have long been evicted. Meanwhile, the bulk of the
working set may be thrashing on the preferred zone even though there may
be significant amounts of memory available in the lower zones.
Even the most basic test -- repeatedly reading a file slightly bigger than
memory -- shows how broken the zone aging is. In this scenario, no single
page should be able stay in memory long enough to get referenced twice and
activated, but activation happens in spades:
$ grep active_file /proc/zoneinfo
nr_inactive_file 0
nr_active_file 0
nr_inactive_file 0
nr_active_file 8
nr_inactive_file 1582
nr_active_file 11994
$ cat data data data data >/dev/null
$ grep active_file /proc/zoneinfo
nr_inactive_file 0
nr_active_file 70
nr_inactive_file 258753
nr_active_file 443214
nr_inactive_file 149793
nr_active_file 12021
Fix this with a very simple round robin allocator. Each zone is allowed a
batch of allocations that is proportional to the zone's size, after which
it is treated as full. The batch counters are reset when all zones have
been tried and the allocator enters the slowpath and kicks off kswapd
reclaim. Allocation and reclaim is now fairly spread out to all
available/allowable zones:
$ grep active_file /proc/zoneinfo
nr_inactive_file 0
nr_active_file 0
nr_inactive_file 174
nr_active_file 4865
nr_inactive_file 53
nr_active_file 860
$ cat data data data data >/dev/null
$ grep active_file /proc/zoneinfo
nr_inactive_file 0
nr_active_file 0
nr_inactive_file 666622
nr_active_file 4988
nr_inactive_file 190969
nr_active_file 937
When zone_reclaim_mode is enabled, allocations will now spread out to all
zones on the local node, not just the first preferred zone (which on a 4G
node might be a tiny Normal zone).

tracepoint()
In the current code, the value of fallback_migratetype that is printed
using the mm_page_alloc_extfrag tracepoint, is the value of the
migratetype *after* it has been set to the preferred migratetype (if the
ownership was changed). Obviously that wouldn't have been the original
intent. (We already have a separate 'change_ownership' field to tell
whether the ownership of the pageblock was changed from the
fallback_migratetype to the preferred type.)
The intent of the fallback_migratetype field is to show the migratetype
from which we borrowed pages in order to satisfy the allocation request.
So fix the code to print that value correctly.

swap cluster allocation is to get better request merge to improve
performance. But the cluster is shared globally, if multiple tasks are
doing swap, this will cause interleave disk access. While multiple tasks
swap is quite common, for example, each numa node has a kswapd thread
doing swap and multiple threads/processes doing direct page reclaim.
ioscheduler can't help too much here, because tasks don't send swapout IO
down to block layer in the meantime. Block layer does merge some IOs, but
a lot not, depending on how many tasks are doing swapout concurrently. In
practice, I've seen a lot of small size IO in swapout workloads.
We makes the cluster allocation per-cpu here. The interleave disk access
issue goes away. All tasks swapout to their own cluster, so swapout will
become sequential, which can be easily merged to big size IO. If one CPU
can't get its per-cpu cluster (for example, there is no free cluster
anymore in the swap), it will fallback to scan swap_map. The CPU can
still continue swap. We don't need recycle free swap entries of other
CPUs.
In my test (swap to a 2-disk raid0 partition), this improves around 10%
swapout throughput, and request size is increased significantly.
How does this impact swap readahead is uncertain though. On one side,
page reclaim always isolates and swaps several adjancent pages, this will
make page reclaim write the pages sequentially and benefit readahead. On
the other side, several CPU write pages interleave means the pages don't
live _sequentially_ but relatively _near_. In the per-cpu allocation
case, if adjancent pages are written by different cpus, they will live
relatively _far_. So how this impacts swap readahead depends on how many
pages page reclaim isolates and swaps one time. If the number is big,
this patch will benefit swap readahead. Of course, this is about
sequential access pattern. The patch has no impact for random access
pattern, because the new cluster allocation algorithm is just for SSD.
Alternative solution is organizing swap layout to be per-mm instead of
this per-cpu approach. In the per-mm layout, we allocate a disk range for
each mm, so pages of one mm live in swap disk adjacently. per-mm layout
has potential issues of lock contention if multiple reclaimers are swap
pages from one mm. For a sequential workload, per-mm layout is better to
implement swap readahead, because pages from the mm are adjacent in disk.
But per-cpu layout isn't very bad in this workload, as page reclaim always
isolates and swaps several pages one time, such pages will still live in
disk sequentially and readahead can utilize this. For a random workload,
per-mm layout isn't beneficial of request merge, because it's quite
possible pages from different mm are swapout in the meantime and IO can't
be merged in per-mm layout. while with per-cpu layout we can merge
requests from any mm. Considering random workload is more popular in
workloads with swap (and per-cpu approach isn't too bad for sequential
workload too), I'm choosing per-cpu layout.

swap can do cluster discard for SSD, which is good, but there are some
problems here:
1. swap do the discard just before page reclaim gets a swap entry and
writes the disk sectors. This is useless for high end SSD, because an
overwrite to a sector implies a discard to original sector too. A
discard + overwrite == overwrite.
2. the purpose of doing discard is to improve SSD firmware garbage
collection. Idealy we should send discard as early as possible, so
firmware can do something smart. Sending discard just after swap entry
is freed is considered early compared to sending discard before write.
Of course, if workload is already bound to gc speed, sending discard
earlier or later doesn't make
3. block discard is a sync API, which will delay scan_swap_map()
significantly.
4. Write and discard command can be executed parallel in PCIe SSD.
Making swap discard async can make execution more efficiently.
This patch makes swap discard async and moves discard to where swap entry
is freed. Discard and write have no dependence now, so above issues can
be avoided. Idealy we should do discard for any freed sectors, but some
SSD discard is very slow. This patch still does discard for a whole
cluster.
My test does a several round of 'mmap, write, unmap', which will trigger a
lot of swap discard. In a fusionio card, with this patch, the test
runtime is reduced to 18% of the time without it, so around 5.5x faster.

I'm using a fast SSD to do swap. scan_swap_map() sometimes uses up to
20~30% CPU time (when cluster is hard to find, the CPU time can be up to
80%), which becomes a bottleneck. scan_swap_map() scans a byte array to
search a 256 page cluster, which is very slow.
Here I introduced a simple algorithm to search cluster. Since we only
care about 256 pages cluster, we can just use a counter to track if a
cluster is free. Every 256 pages use one int to store the counter. If
the counter of a cluster is 0, the cluster is free. All free clusters
will be added to a list, so searching cluster is very efficient. With
this, scap_swap_map() overhead disappears.
This might help low end SD card swap too. Because if the cluster is
aligned, SD firmware can do flash erase more efficiently.
We only enable the algorithm for SSD. Hard disk swap isn't fast enough
and has downside with the algorithm which might introduce regression (see
below).
The patch slightly changes which cluster is choosen. It always adds free
cluster to list tail. This can help wear leveling for low end SSD too.
And if no cluster found, the scan_swap_map() will do search from the end
of last cluster. So if no cluster found, the scan_swap_map() will do
search from the end of last free cluster, which is random. For SSD, this
isn't a problem at all.
Another downside is the cluster must be aligned to 256 pages, which will
reduce the chance to find a cluster. I would expect this isn't a big
problem for SSD because of the non-seek penality. (And this is the reason
I only enable the algorithm for SSD).

The previous patch doing vmstats for TLB flushes ("mm: vmstats: tlb flush
counters") effectively missed UP since arch/x86/mm/tlb.c is only compiled
for SMP.
UP systems do not do remote TLB flushes, so compile those counters out on
UP.
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/generic.c calls __flush_tlb() directly. This is
probably an optimization since both the mtrr code and __flush_tlb() write
cr4. It would probably be safe to make that a flush_tlb_all() (and then
get these statistics), but the mtrr code is ancient and I'm hesitant to
touch it other than to just stick in the counters.

I was investigating some TLB flush scaling issues and realized that we do
not have any good methods for figuring out how many TLB flushes we are
doing.
It would be nice to be able to do these in generic code, but the
arch-independent calls don't explicitly specify whether we actually need
to do remote flushes or not. In the end, we really need to know if we
actually _did_ global vs. local invalidations, so that leaves us with few
options other than to muck with the counters from arch-specific code.

git://people.freedesktop.org/~danvet/drm-intel into drm-fixes
- Early stolen mem reservation from Jesse in x86 boot code. Acked by Ingo
and hpa. This was ready much earlier but somehow I've thought it'd go
in through x86 trees, hence why this is late. Avoids the pci resource
code to plant mmiobars in the middle of stolen mem and other ugliness.
- vgaarb improvements from Alex Williamson plus the fix from Ville for the
vgacon->fbcon smooth transition "feature".
- Render pageflips on ivb/hsw to avoid stalls due to the ring switching
when only flipping on the blitter (Chris).
- Deadlock fixes around our flush_workqueue which crept back in - lockdep
isn't clever enough :(
- Shrinker recursion fix from Chris - this is the thing that blew the vma
patches from Ben I've taken out of 3.12.
- Fixup for the relocation refactoring. Also an igt testcase to make sure
we don't break this again.
- Pile of smaller fixups all over, shortlog has full details.

This is me being a bit OCD after all the dentry optimization work this
merge window: profiles end up showing 'dput()' as a rather expensive
operation, and there were two unrelated bad reasons for that.
The first reason was reading d_lockref.count for debugging purposes,
which touches the lockref cacheline (for reads) before really need to.
More importantly, the debugging test in question is _wrong_, and has
hidden bugs. It's true that we can only sleep when the count goes down
to zero, but the test as-is hides the much more subtle bug that happens
if we race with somebody else deleting the file.
Anyway we _will_ touch that cacheline, but let's do it for a write and
in the right routine (ie in "lockref_put_or_lock()") which annotates the
costs better. So remove the misleading debug code.
The other was an unnecessary access to the cacheline that contains the
d_lru list, just to check whether we already were on the LRU list or
not. This is exactly what we have d_flags for, so that we can avoid
touching extra cache lines for the common case. So just add another bit
for "is this dentry on the LRU".
Finally, mark the tests properly likely/unlikely, so that the common
fast-paths are dense in the instruction stream.
This makes the profiles look much saner.

The only actual current lockref user (dcache) uses zero reference counts
even for perfectly live dentries, because it's a cache: there may not be
any users, but that doesn't mean that we want to throw away the dentry.
At the same time, the dentry cache does have a notion of a truly "dead"
dentry that we must not even increment the reference count of, because
we have pruned it and it is not valid.
Currently that distinction is not visible in the lockref itself, and the
dentry cache validation uses "lockref_get_or_lock()" to either get a new
reference to a dentry that already had existing references (and thus
cannot be dead), or get the dentry lock so that we can then verify the
dentry and increment the reference count under the lock if that
verification was successful.
That's all somewhat complicated.
This adds the concept of being "dead" to the lockref itself, by simply
using a count that is negative. This allows a usage scenario where we
can increment the refcount of a dentry without having to validate it,
and pushing the special "we killed it" case into the lockref code.
The dentry code itself doesn't actually use this yet, and it's probably
too late in the merge window to do that code (the dentry_kill() code
with its "should I decrement the count" logic really is pretty complex
code), but let's introduce the concept at the lockref level now.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull namespace changes from Eric Biederman:
"This is an assorted mishmash of small cleanups, enhancements and bug
fixes.
The major theme is user namespace mount restrictions. nsown_capable
is killed as it encourages not thinking about details that need to be
considered. A very hard to hit pid namespace exiting bug was finally
tracked and fixed. A couple of cleanups to the basic namespace
infrastructure.
Finally there is an enhancement that makes per user namespace
capabilities usable as capabilities, and an enhancement that allows
the per userns root to nice other processes in the user namespace"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:
userns: Kill nsown_capable it makes the wrong thing easy
capabilities: allow nice if we are privileged
pidns: Don't have unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) imply CLONE_THREAD
userns: Allow PR_CAPBSET_DROP in a user namespace.
namespaces: Simplify copy_namespaces so it is clear what is going on.
pidns: Fix hang in zap_pid_ns_processes by sending a potentially extra wakeup
sysfs: Restrict mounting sysfs
userns: Better restrictions on when proc and sysfs can be mounted
vfs: Don't copy mount bind mounts of /proc/<pid>/ns/mnt between namespaces
kernel/nsproxy.c: Improving a snippet of code.
proc: Restrict mounting the proc filesystem
vfs: Lock in place mounts from more privileged users

This reverts commits 61e00655e9cb, 73f8645db191 and 8e22ecb603c8:
"Input: introduce BTN/ABS bits for drums and guitars"
"HID: wiimote: add support for Guitar-Hero drums"
"HID: wiimote: add support for Guitar-Hero guitars"
The extra new ABS_xx values resulted in ABS_MAX no longer being a
power-of-two, which broke the comparison logic. It also caused the
ioctl numbers to overflow into the next byte, causing problems for that.
We'll try again for 3.13.
