mm/vmstat: replace cpumask_weight with cpumask_empty where appropriate
mm/vmstat.c code calls cpumask_weight() to check if any bit of a given cpumask is set. We can do it more efficiently with cpumask_empty() because cpumask_empty() stops traversing the cpumask as soon as it finds first set bit, while cpumask_weight() counts all bits unconditionally.

mm: zswap: add basic meminfo and vmstat coverage
Currently it requires poking at debugfs to figure out the size and population of the zswap cache on a host. There are no counters for reads and writes against the cache. As a result, it's difficult to understand zswap behavior on production systems. Print zswap memory consumption and how many pages are zswapped out in /proc/meminfo. Count zswapouts and zswapins in /proc/vmstat.

mm/vmstat: add events for ksm cow
Users may use ksm by calling madvise(, , MADV_MERGEABLE) when they want to save memory, it's a tradeoff by suffering delay on ksm cow. Users can get to know how much memory ksm saved by reading /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/pages_sharing, but they don't know what's the costs of ksm cow, and this is important of some delay sensitive tasks. So add ksm cow events to help users evaluate whether or how to use ksm. Also update Documentation/admin-guide/mm/ksm.rst with new added events.

mm: untangle config dependencies for demote-on-reclaim
At the time demote-on-reclaim was introduced, it was tied to CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU + CONFIG_MIGRATE, but that is not really accurate. The only two things we need to depend on are CONFIG_NUMA + CONFIG_MIGRATE, so clean this up. Furthermore, we only register the hotplug memory notifier when the system has CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG.

mm: only re-generate demotion targets when a numa node changes its N_CPU state
Abhishek reported that after patch [1], hotplug operations are taking
roughly double the expected time. [2]
The reason behind is that the CPU callbacks that
migrate_on_reclaim_init() sets always call set_migration_target_nodes()
whenever a CPU is brought up/down.
But we only care about numa nodes going from having cpus to become
cpuless, and vice versa, as that influences the demotion_target order.
We do already have two CPU callbacks (vmstat_cpu_online() and
vmstat_cpu_dead()) that check exactly that, so get rid of the CPU
callbacks in migrate_on_reclaim_init() and only call
set_migration_target_nodes() from vmstat_cpu_{dead,online}() whenever a
numa node change its N_CPU state.

mm/vmstat: add event for ksm swapping in copy
When faults in from swap what used to be a KSM page and that page had been swapped in before, system has to make a copy, and leaves remerging the pages to a later pass of ksmd. That is not good for performace, we'd better to reduce this kind of copy. There are some ways to reduce it, for example lessen swappiness or madvise(, , MADV_MERGEABLE) range. So add this event to support doing this tuning. Just like this patch: "mm, THP, swap: add THP swapping out fallback counting".

mm/vmstat: add events for THP max_ptes_* exceeds
There are interfaces to adjust max_ptes_none, max_ptes_swap, max_ptes_shared values, see /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/. But system administrator may not know which value is the best. So Add those events to support adjusting max_ptes_* to suitable values. For example, if default max_ptes_swap value causes too much failures, and system uses zram whose IO is fast, administrator could increase max_ptes_swap until THP_SCAN_EXCEED_SWAP_PTE not increase anymore.

mm/vmscan: throttle reclaim until some writeback completes if congested
Patch series "Remove dependency on congestion_wait in mm/", v5.
This series that removes all calls to congestion_wait in mm/ and deletes
wait_iff_congested. It's not a clever implementation but
congestion_wait has been broken for a long time [1].
Even if congestion throttling worked, it was never a great idea. While
excessive dirty/writeback pages at the tail of the LRU is one
possibility that reclaim may be slow, there is also the problem of too
many pages being isolated and reclaim failing for other reasons
(elevated references, too many pages isolated, excessive LRU contention
etc).
This series replaces the "congestion" throttling with 3 different types.
- If there are too many dirty/writeback pages, sleep until a timeout or
enough pages get cleaned
- If too many pages are isolated, sleep until enough isolated pages are
either reclaimed or put back on the LRU
- If no progress is being made, direct reclaim tasks sleep until
another task makes progress with acceptable efficiency.
This was initially tested with a mix of workloads that used to trigger
corner cases that no longer work. A new test case was created called
"stutterp" (pagereclaim-stutterp-noreaders in mmtests) using a freshly
created XFS filesystem. Note that it may be necessary to increase the
timeout of ssh if executing remotely as ssh itself can get throttled and
the connection may timeout.
stutterp varies the number of "worker" processes from 4 up to NR_CPUS*4
to check the impact as the number of direct reclaimers increase. It has
four types of worker.
- One "anon latency" worker creates small mappings with mmap() and
times how long it takes to fault the mapping reading it 4K at a time
- X file writers which is fio randomly writing X files where the total
size of the files add up to the allowed dirty_ratio. fio is allowed
to run for a warmup period to allow some file-backed pages to
accumulate. The duration of the warmup is based on the best-case
linear write speed of the storage.
- Y file readers which is fio randomly reading small files
- Z anon memory hogs which continually map (100-dirty_ratio)% of memory
- Total estimated WSS = (100+dirty_ration) percentage of memory
X+Y+Z+1 == NR_WORKERS varying from 4 up to NR_CPUS*4
The intent is to maximise the total WSS with a mix of file and anon
memory where some anonymous memory must be swapped and there is a high
likelihood of dirty/writeback pages reaching the end of the LRU.
The test can be configured to have no background readers to stress
dirty/writeback pages. The results below are based on having zero
readers.
The short summary of the results is that the series works and stalls
until some event occurs but the timeouts may need adjustment.
The test results are not broken down by patch as the series should be
treated as one block that replaces a broken throttling mechanism with a
working one.
Finally, three machines were tested but I'm reporting the worst set of
results. The other two machines had much better latencies for example.
First the results of the "anon latency" latency

Max mmap-48 477923.9400 ( 0.00%) 245414.8238 ( 48.65%)
For most thread counts, the time to mmap() is unfortunately increased.
In earlier versions of the series, this was lower but a large number of
throttling events were reaching their timeout increasing the amount of
inefficient scanning of the LRU. There is no prioritisation of reclaim
tasks making progress based on each tasks rate of page allocation versus
progress of reclaim. The variance is also impacted for high worker
counts but in all cases, the differences in latency are not
statistically significant due to very large maximum outliers. Max-90
shows that 90% of the stalls are comparable but the Max results show the
massive outliers which are increased to to stalling.
It is expected that this will be very machine dependant. Due to the
test design, reclaim is difficult so allocations stall and there are
variances depending on whether THPs can be allocated or not. The amount
of memory will affect exactly how bad the corner cases are and how often
they trigger. The warmup period calculation is not ideal as it's based
on linear writes where as fio is randomly writing multiple files from
multiple tasks so the start state of the test is variable. For example,
these are the latencies on a single-socket machine that had more memory

Kswapd scanned less pages but the detailed pattern is different. The
vanilla kernel scans slowly over time where as the patches exhibits
burst patterns of scan activity. Direct reclaim scanning is reduced by
52% due to stalling.
The pattern for stealing pages is also slightly different. Both kernels
exhibit spikes but the vanilla kernel when reclaiming shows pages being
reclaimed over a period of time where as the patches tend to reclaim in
spikes. The difference is that vanilla is not throttling and instead
scanning constantly finding some pages over time where as the patched
kernel throttles and reclaims in spikes.

82394 writeback_wait_iff_congested: usec_timeout=100000 usec_delayed=0
The fast majority of wait_iff_congested calls do not stall at all. What
is likely happening is that cond_resched() reschedules the task for a
short period when the BDI is not registering congestion (which it never
will in this test setup).
1 writeback_congestion_wait: usec_timeout=100000 usec_delayed=120000

778 writeback_congestion_wait: usec_timeout=100000 usec_delayed=104000
congestion_wait if called always exceeds the timeout as there is no
trigger to wake it up.
Bottom line: Vanilla will throttle but it's not effective.

------------
Kswapd throttle activity was always due to scanning pages tagged for

The majority of events did not stall or stalled for a short period.
Roughly 16% of stalls reached the timeout before expiry. For direct
reclaim, the number of times stalled for each reason were
6624 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_ISOLATED
93246 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_NOPROGRESS
96934 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_WRITEBACK
The most common reason to stall was due to excessive pages tagged for
immediate reclaim at the tail of the LRU followed by a failure to make
forward. A relatively small number were due to too many pages isolated
from the LRU by parallel threads
For VMSCAN_THROTTLE_ISOLATED, the breakdown of delays was
9 usec_timeout=20000 usect_delayed=4000 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_ISOLATED

6520 usec_timeout=20000 usect_delayed=0 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_ISOLATED
Most did not stall at all. A small number reached the timeout.
For VMSCAN_THROTTLE_NOPROGRESS, the breakdown of stalls were all over
the map

The full timeout is often hit but a large number also do not stall at
all. The remainder slept a little allowing other reclaim tasks to make
progress.
While this timeout could be further increased, it could also negatively
impact worst-case behaviour when there is no prioritisation of what task
should make progress.

The majority hit the timeout in direct reclaim context although a
sizable number did not stall at all. This is very different to kswapd
where only a tiny percentage of stalls due to writeback reached the
timeout.
Bottom line, the throttling appears to work and the wakeup events may
limit worst case stalls. There might be some grounds for adjusting
timeouts but it's likely futile as the worst-case scenarios depend on
the workload, memory size and the speed of the storage. A better
approach to improve the series further would be to prioritise tasks
based on their rate of allocation with the caveat that it may be very
expensive to track.
This patch (of 5):
Page reclaim throttles on wait_iff_congested under the following
conditions:
- kswapd is encountering pages under writeback and marked for immediate
reclaim implying that pages are cycling through the LRU faster than
pages can be cleaned.
- Direct reclaim will stall if all dirty pages are backed by congested
inodes.
wait_iff_congested is almost completely broken with few exceptions.
This patch adds a new node-based workqueue and tracks the number of
throttled tasks and pages written back since throttling started. If
enough pages belonging to the node are written back then the throttled
tasks will wake early. If not, the throttled tasks sleeps until the
timeout expires.

mm/vmstat: protect per cpu variables with preempt disable on RT
Disable preemption on -RT for the vmstat code. On vanila the code runs in IRQ-off regions while on -RT it may not when stats are updated under a local_lock. "preempt_disable" ensures that the same resources is not updated in parallel due to preemption. This patch differs from the preempt-rt version where __count_vm_event and __count_vm_events are also protected. The counters are explicitly "allowed to be to be racy" so there is no need to protect them from preemption. Only the accurate page stats that are updated by a read-modify-write need protection. This patch also differs in that a preempt_[en|dis]able_rt helper is not used. As vmstat is the only user of the helper, it was suggested that it be open-coded in vmstat.c instead of risking the helper being used in unnecessary contexts.

mm/vmscan: add page demotion counter
Account the number of demoted pages.
Add pgdemote_kswapd and pgdemote_direct VM counters showed in
/proc/vmstat.
[ daveh:
- __count_vm_events() a bit, and made them look at the THP
size directly rather than getting data from migrate_pages()

mm: Replace deprecated CPU-hotplug functions.
The functions get_online_cpus() and put_online_cpus() have been deprecated during the CPU hotplug rework. They map directly to cpus_read_lock() and cpus_read_unlock().

mm/vmstat: convert NUMA statistics to basic NUMA counters
NUMA statistics are maintained on the zone level for hits, misses, foreign etc but nothing relies on them being perfectly accurate for functional correctness. The counters are used by userspace to get a general overview of a workloads NUMA behaviour but the page allocator incurs a high cost to maintain perfect accuracy similar to what is required for a vmstat like NR_FREE_PAGES. There even is a sysctl vm.numa_stat to allow userspace to turn off the collection of NUMA statistics like NUMA_HIT. This patch converts NUMA_HIT and friends to be NUMA events with similar accuracy to VM events. There is a possibility that slight errors will be introduced but the overall trend as seen by userspace will be similar. The counters are no longer updated from vmstat_refresh context as it is unnecessary overhead for counters that may never be read by userspace. Note that counters could be maintained at the node level to save space but it would have a user-visible impact due to /proc/zoneinfo.

mm/page_alloc: split per cpu page lists and zone stats
The PCP (per-cpu page allocator in page_alloc.c) shares locking
requirements with vmstat and the zone lock which is inconvenient and
causes some issues. For example, the PCP list and vmstat share the same
per-cpu space meaning that it's possible that vmstat updates dirty cache
lines holding per-cpu lists across CPUs unless padding is used. Second,
PREEMPT_RT does not want to disable IRQs for too long in the page
allocator.
This series splits the locking requirements and uses locks types more
suitable for PREEMPT_RT, reduces the time when special locking is required
for stats and reduces the time when IRQs need to be disabled on
!PREEMPT_RT kernels.
Why local_lock? PREEMPT_RT considers the following sequence to be unsafe
as documented in Documentation/locking/locktypes.rst
local_irq_disable();
spin_lock(&lock);
The pcp allocator has this sequence for rmqueue_pcplist (local_irq_save)
-> __rmqueue_pcplist -> rmqueue_bulk (spin_lock). While it's possible to
separate this out, it generally means there are points where we enable
IRQs and reenable them again immediately. To prevent a migration and the
per-cpu pointer going stale, migrate_disable is also needed. That is a
custom lock that is similar, but worse, than local_lock. Furthermore, on
PREEMPT_RT, it's undesirable to leave IRQs disabled for too long. By
converting to local_lock which disables migration on PREEMPT_RT, the
locking requirements can be separated and start moving the protections for
PCP, stats and the zone lock to PREEMPT_RT-safe equivalent locking. As a
bonus, local_lock also means that PROVE_LOCKING does something useful.
After that, it's obvious that zone_statistics incurs too much overhead and
leaves IRQs disabled for longer than necessary on !PREEMPT_RT kernels.
zone_statistics uses perfectly accurate counters requiring IRQs be
disabled for parallel RMW sequences when inaccurate ones like vm_events
would do. The series makes the NUMA statistics (NUMA_HIT and friends)
inaccurate counters that then require no special protection on
!PREEMPT_RT.
The bulk page allocator can then do stat updates in bulk with IRQs enabled
which should improve the efficiency. Technically, this could have been
done without the local_lock and vmstat conversion work and the order
simply reflects the timing of when different series were implemented.
Finally, there are places where we conflate IRQs being disabled for the
PCP with the IRQ-safe zone spinlock. The remainder of the series reduces
the scope of what is protected by disabled IRQs on !PREEMPT_RT kernels.
By the end of the series, page_alloc.c does not call local_irq_save so the
locking scope is a bit clearer. The one exception is that modifying
NR_FREE_PAGES still happens in places where it's known the IRQs are
disabled as it's harmless for PREEMPT_RT and would be expensive to split
the locking there.
No performance data is included because despite the overhead of the stats,
it's within the noise for most workloads on !PREEMPT_RT. However, Jesper
Dangaard Brouer ran a page allocation microbenchmark on a E5-1650 v4 @
3.60GHz CPU on the first version of this series. Focusing on the array
variant of the bulk page allocator reveals the following.
(CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-1650 v4 @ 3.60GHz)
ARRAY variant: time_bulk_page_alloc_free_array: step=bulk size
Baseline Patched
1 56.383 54.225 (+3.83%)
2 40.047 35.492 (+11.38%)
3 37.339 32.643 (+12.58%)
4 35.578 30.992 (+12.89%)
8 33.592 29.606 (+11.87%)
16 32.362 28.532 (+11.85%)
32 31.476 27.728 (+11.91%)
64 30.633 27.252 (+11.04%)
128 30.596 27.090 (+11.46%)
While this is a positive outcome, the series is more likely to be
interesting to the RT people in terms of getting parts of the PREEMPT_RT
tree into mainline.
This patch (of 9):
The per-cpu page allocator lists and the per-cpu vmstat deltas are stored
in the same struct per_cpu_pages even though vmstats have no direct impact
on the per-cpu page lists. This is inconsistent because the vmstats for a
node are stored on a dedicated structure. The bigger issue is that the
per_cpu_pages structure is not cache-aligned and stat updates either cache
conflict with adjacent per-cpu lists incurring a runtime cost or padding
is required incurring a memory cost.
This patch splits the per-cpu pagelists and the vmstat deltas into
separate structures. It's mostly a mechanical conversion but some
variable renaming is done to clearly distinguish the per-cpu pages
structure (pcp) from the vmstats (pzstats).
Superficially, this appears to increase the size of the per_cpu_pages
structure but the movement of expire fills a structure hole so there is no
impact overall.
