mm/hugetlb_vmemmap: remap head page to newly allocated page Today with `hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on` the struct page memory that is freed back to page allocator is as following: for a 2M hugetlb page it will reuse the first 4K vmemmap page to remap the remaining 7 vmemmap pages, and for a 1G hugetlb it will remap the remaining 4095 vmemmap pages. Essentially, that means that it breaks the first 4K of a potentially contiguous chunk of memory of 32K (for 2M hugetlb pages) or 16M (for 1G hugetlb pages). For this reason the memory that it's free back to page allocator cannot be used for hugetlb to allocate huge pages of the same size, but rather only of a smaller huge page size: Trying to assign a 64G node to hugetlb (on a 128G 2node guest, each node having 64G): * Before allocation: Free pages count per migrate type at order 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ... Node 0, zone Normal, type Movable 340 100 32 15 1 2 0 0 0 1 15558 $ echo 32768 > /sys/devices/system/node/node0/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages $ cat /sys/devices/system/node/node0/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages 31987 * After: Node 0, zone Normal, type Movable 30893 32006 31515 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Notice how the memory freed back are put back into 4K / 8K / 16K page pools. And it allocates a total of 31987 pages (63974M). To fix this behaviour rather than remapping second vmemmap page (thus breaking the contiguous block of memory backing the struct pages) repopulate the first vmemmap page with a new one. We allocate and copy from the currently mapped vmemmap page, and then remap it later on. The same algorithm works if there's a pre initialized walk::reuse_page and the head page doesn't need to be skipped and instead we remap it when the @addr being changed is the @reuse_addr. The new head page is allocated in vmemmap_remap_free() given that on restore there's no need for functional change.

Essentially, that means that it breaks the first 4K of a potentially contiguous chunk of memory of 32K (for 2M hugetlb pages) or 16M (for 1G hugetlb pages).

There are a lot of struct page structures associated with each HugeTLB page. For tail pages, the value of compound_head is the same. So we can reuse first page of tail page structures. We map the virtual addresses of the remaining pages of tail page structures to the first tail page struct, and then free these page frames. Therefore, we need to reserve two pages as vmemmap areas. When we allocate a HugeTLB page from the buddy, we can free some vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page. It is more appropriate to do it in the prep_new_huge_page(). The free_vmemmap_pages_per_hpage(), which indicates how many vmemmap pages associated with a HugeTLB page can be freed, returns zero for now, which means the feature is disabled. We will enable it once all the infrastructure is there.

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: improve hugetlb_vmemmap code readability There is a discussion about the name of hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free in thread [1]. The suggestion suggested by David is rename "alloc/free" to "optimize/restore" to make functionalities clearer to users, "optimize" means the function will optimize vmemmap pages, while "restore" means restoring its vmemmap pages discared before. This commit does this. Another discussion is the confusion RESERVE_VMEMMAP_NR isn't used explicitly for vmemmap_addr but implicitly for vmemmap_end in hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free. David suggested we can compute what hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does now at runtime. We do not need to worry for the overhead of computing at runtime since the calculation is simple enough and those functions are not in a hot path. This commit has the following improvements: 1) The function suffixed name ("optimize/restore") is more expressive. 2) The logic becomes less weird in hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore(). 3) The hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does not need to be exported anymore. 4) A ->optimize_vmemmap_pages field in struct hstate is killed. 5) There is only one place where checks is_power_of_2(sizeof(struct page)) instead of two places. 6) Add more comments for hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore(). 7) For external users, hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap_pages() is used for detecting if the HugeTLB's vmemmap pages is optimizable originally.

mm: hugetlb: alloc the vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page When we free a HugeTLB page to the buddy allocator, we need to allocate the vmemmap pages associated with it. However, we may not be able to allocate the vmemmap pages when the system is under memory pressure. In this case, we just refuse to free the HugeTLB page. This changes behavior in some corner cases as listed below: 1) Failing to free a huge page triggered by the user (decrease nr_pages). User needs to try again later. 2) Failing to free a surplus huge page when freed by the application. Try again later when freeing a huge page next time. 3) Failing to dissolve a free huge page on ZONE_MOVABLE via offline_pages(). This can happen when we have plenty of ZONE_MOVABLE memory, but not enough kernel memory to allocate vmemmmap pages. We may even be able to migrate huge page contents, but will not be able to dissolve the source huge page. This will prevent an offline operation and is unfortunate as memory offlining is expected to succeed on movable zones. Users that depend on memory hotplug to succeed for movable zones should carefully consider whether the memory savings gained from this feature are worth the risk of possibly not being able to offline memory in certain situations. 4) Failing to dissolve a huge page on CMA/ZONE_MOVABLE via alloc_contig_range() - once we have that handling in place. Mainly affects CMA and virtio-mem. Similar to 3). virito-mem will handle migration errors gracefully. CMA might be able to fallback on other free areas within the CMA region. Vmemmap pages are allocated from the page freeing context. In order for those allocations to be not disruptive (e.g. trigger oom killer) __GFP_NORETRY is used. hugetlb_lock is dropped for the allocation because a non sleeping allocation would be too fragile and it could fail too easily under memory pressure. GFP_ATOMIC or other modes to access memory reserves is not used because we want to prevent consuming reserves under heavy hugetlb freeing.

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: improve hugetlb_vmemmap code readability There is a discussion about the name of hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free in thread [1]. The suggestion suggested by David is rename "alloc/free" to "optimize/restore" to make functionalities clearer to users, "optimize" means the function will optimize vmemmap pages, while "restore" means restoring its vmemmap pages discared before. This commit does this. Another discussion is the confusion RESERVE_VMEMMAP_NR isn't used explicitly for vmemmap_addr but implicitly for vmemmap_end in hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free.

This commit has the following improvements: 1) The function suffixed name ("optimize/restore") is more expressive. 2) The logic becomes less weird in hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore(). 3) The hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does not need to be exported anymore. 4) A ->optimize_vmemmap_pages field in struct hstate is killed. 5) There is only one place where checks is_power_of_2(sizeof(struct page)) instead of two places. 6) Add more comments for hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore(). 7) For external users, hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap_pages() is used for detecting if the HugeTLB's vmemmap pages is optimizable originally.

However, rebooting usually takes a long time. So add a sysctl to enable or disable the feature at runtime without rebooting. Why we need this? There are 3 use cases. 1) The feature of minimizing overhead of struct page associated with each HugeTLB is disabled by default without passing "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" to the boot cmdline. When we (ByteDance) deliver the servers to the users who want to enable this feature, they have to configure the grub (change boot cmdline) and reboot the servers, whereas rebooting usually takes a long time (we have thousands of servers). It's a very bad experience for the users. So we need a approach to enable this feature after rebooting. This is a use case in our practical environment. 2) Some use cases are that HugeTLB pages are allocated 'on the fly' instead of being pulled from the HugeTLB pool, those workloads would be affected with this feature enabled. Those workloads could be identified by the characteristics of they never explicitly allocating huge pages with 'nr_hugepages' but only set 'nr_overcommit_hugepages' and then let the pages be allocated from the buddy allocator at fault time. We can confirm it is a real use case from the commit 099730d67417. For those workloads, the page fault time could be ~2x slower than before. We suspect those users want to disable this feature if the system has enabled this before and they don't think the memory savings benefit is enough to make up for the performance drop. 3) If the workload which wants vmemmap pages to be optimized and the workload which wants to set 'nr_overcommit_hugepages' and does not want the extera overhead at fault time when the overcommitted pages be allocated from the buddy allocator are deployed in the same server. The user could enable this feature and set 'nr_hugepages' and 'nr_overcommit_hugepages', then disable the feature. In this case, the overcommited HugeTLB pages will not encounter the extra overhead at fault time.

We may even be able to migrate huge page contents, but will not be able to dissolve the source huge page. This will prevent an offline operation and is unfortunate as memory offlining is expected to succeed on movable zones. Users that depend on memory hotplug to succeed for movable zones should carefully consider whether the memory savings gained from this feature are worth the risk of possibly not being able to offline memory in certain situations. 4) Failing to dissolve a huge page on CMA/ZONE_MOVABLE via alloc_contig_range() - once we have that handling in place. Mainly affects CMA and virtio-mem. Similar to 3). virito-mem will handle migration errors gracefully. CMA might be able to fallback on other free areas within the CMA region. Vmemmap pages are allocated from the page freeing context. In order for those allocations to be not disruptive (e.g. trigger oom killer) __GFP_NORETRY is used. hugetlb_lock is dropped for the allocation because a non sleeping allocation would be too fragile and it could fail too easily under memory pressure. GFP_ATOMIC or other modes to access memory reserves is not used because we want to prevent consuming reserves under heavy hugetlb freeing.

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: improve hugetlb_vmemmap code readability There is a discussion about the name of hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free in thread [1]. The suggestion suggested by David is rename "alloc/free" to "optimize/restore" to make functionalities clearer to users, "optimize" means the function will optimize vmemmap pages, while "restore" means restoring its vmemmap pages discared before. This commit does this. Another discussion is the confusion RESERVE_VMEMMAP_NR isn't used explicitly for vmemmap_addr but implicitly for vmemmap_end in hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free. David suggested we can compute what hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does now at runtime. We do not need to worry for the overhead of computing at runtime since the calculation is simple enough and those functions are not in a hot path. This commit has the following improvements: 1) The function suffixed name ("optimize/restore") is more expressive. 2) The logic becomes less weird in hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore(). 3) The hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does not need to be exported anymore. 4) A ->optimize_vmemmap_pages field in struct hstate is killed. 5) There is only one place where checks is_power_of_2(sizeof(struct page)) instead of two places. 6) Add more comments for hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore(). 7) For external users, hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap_pages() is used for detecting if the HugeTLB's vmemmap pages is optimizable originally.

mm: hugetlb: free the vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page Every HugeTLB has more than one struct page structure. We __know__ that we only use the first 4 (__NR_USED_SUBPAGE) struct page structures to store metadata associated with each HugeTLB. There are a lot of struct page structures associated with each HugeTLB page. For tail pages, the value of compound_head is the same. So we can reuse first page of tail page structures. We map the virtual addresses of the remaining pages of tail page structures to the first tail page struct, and then free these page frames. Therefore, we need to reserve two pages as vmemmap areas. When we allocate a HugeTLB page from the buddy, we can free some vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page. It is more appropriate to do it in the prep_new_huge_page().

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: improve hugetlb_vmemmap code readability There is a discussion about the name of hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free in thread [1]. The suggestion suggested by David is rename "alloc/free" to "optimize/restore" to make functionalities clearer to users, "optimize" means the function will optimize vmemmap pages, while "restore" means restoring its vmemmap pages discared before. This commit does this. Another discussion is the confusion RESERVE_VMEMMAP_NR isn't used explicitly for vmemmap_addr but implicitly for vmemmap_end in hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free. David suggested we can compute what hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does now at runtime. We do not need to worry for the overhead of computing at runtime since the calculation is simple enough and those functions are not in a hot path. This commit has the following improvements: 1) The function suffixed name ("optimize/restore") is more expressive. 2) The logic becomes less weird in hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore(). 3) The hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does not need to be exported anymore. 4) A ->optimize_vmemmap_pages field in struct hstate is killed. 5) There is only one place where checks is_power_of_2(sizeof(struct page)) instead of two places. 6) Add more comments for hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore(). 7) For external users, hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap_pages() is used for detecting if the HugeTLB's vmemmap pages is optimizable originally. In this commit, it is killed and we introduce a new helper hugetlb_vmemmap_optimizable() to replace it. The name is more expressive.

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: add hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap sysctl We must add hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on (or "off") to the boot cmdline and reboot the server to enable or disable the feature of optimizing vmemmap pages associated with HugeTLB pages. However, rebooting usually takes a long time. So add a sysctl to enable or disable the feature at runtime without rebooting. Why we need this? There are 3 use cases. 1) The feature of minimizing overhead of struct page associated with each HugeTLB is disabled by default without passing "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" to the boot cmdline. When we (ByteDance) deliver the servers to the users who want to enable this feature, they have to configure the grub (change boot cmdline) and reboot the servers, whereas rebooting usually takes a long time (we have thousands of servers). It's a very bad experience for the users. So we need a approach to enable this feature after rebooting. This is a use case in our practical environment. 2) Some use cases are that HugeTLB pages are allocated 'on the fly' instead of being pulled from the HugeTLB pool, those workloads would be affected with this feature enabled. Those workloads could be identified by the characteristics of they never explicitly allocating huge pages with 'nr_hugepages' but only set 'nr_overcommit_hugepages' and then let the pages be allocated from the buddy allocator at fault time. We can confirm it is a real use case from the commit 099730d67417. For those workloads, the page fault time could be ~2x slower than before. We suspect those users want to disable this feature if the system has enabled this before and they don't think the memory savings benefit is enough to make up for the performance drop. 3) If the workload which wants vmemmap pages to be optimized and the workload which wants to set 'nr_overcommit_hugepages' and does not want the extera overhead at fault time when the overcommitted pages be allocated from the buddy allocator are deployed in the same server. The user could enable this feature and set 'nr_hugepages' and 'nr_overcommit_hugepages', then disable the feature. In this case, the overcommited HugeTLB pages will not encounter the extra overhead at fault time.

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: improve hugetlb_vmemmap code readability There is a discussion about the name of hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free in thread [1]. The suggestion suggested by David is rename "alloc/free" to "optimize/restore" to make functionalities clearer to users, "optimize" means the function will optimize vmemmap pages, while "restore" means restoring its vmemmap pages discared before. This commit does this. Another discussion is the confusion RESERVE_VMEMMAP_NR isn't used explicitly for vmemmap_addr but implicitly for vmemmap_end in hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free. David suggested we can compute what hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does now at runtime. We do not need to worry for the overhead of computing at runtime since the calculation is simple enough and those functions are not in a hot path. This commit has the following improvements: 1) The function suffixed name ("optimize/restore") is more expressive. 2) The logic becomes less weird in hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore(). 3) The hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does not need to be exported anymore. 4) A ->optimize_vmemmap_pages field in struct hstate is killed. 5) There is only one place where checks is_power_of_2(sizeof(struct page)) instead of two places. 6) Add more comments for hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore(). 7) For external users, hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap_pages() is used for detecting if the HugeTLB's vmemmap pages is optimizable originally. In this commit, it is killed and we introduce a new helper hugetlb_vmemmap_optimizable() to replace it. The name is more expressive.

mm: hugetlb: free the vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page Every HugeTLB has more than one struct page structure. We __know__ that we only use the first 4 (__NR_USED_SUBPAGE) struct page structures to store metadata associated with each HugeTLB. There are a lot of struct page structures associated with each HugeTLB page. For tail pages, the value of compound_head is the same. So we can reuse first page of tail page structures. We map the virtual addresses of the remaining pages of tail page structures to the first tail page struct, and then free these page frames. Therefore, we need to reserve two pages as vmemmap areas. When we allocate a HugeTLB page from the buddy, we can free some vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page. It is more appropriate to do it in the prep_new_huge_page(). The free_vmemmap_pages_per_hpage(), which indicates how many vmemmap pages associated with a HugeTLB page can be freed, returns zero for now, which means the feature is disabled.

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: add hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap sysctl We must add hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on (or "off") to the boot cmdline and reboot the server to enable or disable the feature of optimizing vmemmap pages associated with HugeTLB pages. However, rebooting usually takes a long time. So add a sysctl to enable or disable the feature at runtime without rebooting. Why we need this? There are 3 use cases. 1) The feature of minimizing overhead of struct page associated with each HugeTLB is disabled by default without passing "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" to the boot cmdline. When we (ByteDance) deliver the servers to the users who want to enable this feature, they have to configure the grub (change boot cmdline) and reboot the servers, whereas rebooting usually takes a long time (we have thousands of servers). It's a very bad experience for the users. So we need a approach to enable this feature after rebooting. This is a use case in our practical environment. 2) Some use cases are that HugeTLB pages are allocated 'on the fly' instead of being pulled from the HugeTLB pool, those workloads would be affected with this feature enabled. Those workloads could be identified by the characteristics of they never explicitly allocating huge pages with 'nr_hugepages' but only set 'nr_overcommit_hugepages' and then let the pages be allocated from the buddy allocator at fault time. We can confirm it is a real use case from the commit 099730d67417. For those workloads, the page fault time could be ~2x slower than before. We suspect those users want to disable this feature if the system has enabled this before and they don't think the memory savings benefit is enough to make up for the performance drop. 3) If the workload which wants vmemmap pages to be optimized and the workload which wants to set 'nr_overcommit_hugepages' and does not want the extera overhead at fault time when the overcommitted pages be allocated from the buddy allocator are deployed in the same server. The user could enable this feature and set 'nr_hugepages' and 'nr_overcommit_hugepages', then disable the feature. In this case, the overcommited HugeTLB pages will not encounter the extra overhead at fault time.

mm: sparsemem: split the huge PMD mapping of vmemmap pages Patch series "Split huge PMD mapping of vmemmap pages", v4. In order to reduce the difficulty of code review in series[1]. We disable huge PMD mapping of vmemmap pages when that feature is enabled. In this series, we do not disable huge PMD mapping of vmemmap pages anymore. We will split huge PMD mapping when needed. When HugeTLB pages are freed from the pool we do not attempt coalasce and move back to a PMD mapping because it is much more complex. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/20210510030027.56044-1-songmuchun@bytedance.com/ This patch (of 3): In [1], PMD mappings of vmemmap pages were disabled if the the feature hugetlb_free_vmemmap was enabled. This was done to simplify the initial implementation of vmmemap freeing for hugetlb pages. Now, remove this simplification by allowing PMD mapping and switching to PTE mappings as needed for allocated hugetlb pages. When a hugetlb page is allocated, the vmemmap page tables are walked to free vmemmap pages. During this walk, split huge PMD mappings to PTE mappings as required. In the unlikely case PTE pages can not be allocated, return error(ENOMEM) and do not optimize vmemmap of the hugetlb page. When HugeTLB pages are freed from the pool, we do not attempt to coalesce and move back to a PMD mapping because it is much more complex.

sysctl: fix proc_dobool() usability Currently proc_dobool expects a (bool *) in table->data, but sizeof(int) in table->maxsize, because it uses do_proc_dointvec() directly. This is unsafe for at least two reasons: 1. A sysctl table definition may use { .data = &variable, .maxsize = sizeof(variable) }, not realizing that this makes the sysctl unusable (see the Fixes: tag) and that they need to use the completely counterintuitive sizeof(int) instead. 2. proc_dobool() will currently try to parse an array of values if given .maxsize >= 2*sizeof(int), but will try to write values of type bool by offsets of sizeof(int), so it will not work correctly with neither an (int *) nor a (bool *). There is no .maxsize validation to prevent this. Fix this by: 1. Constraining proc_dobool() to allow only one value and .maxsize == sizeof(bool). 2. Wrapping the original struct ctl_table in a temporary one with .data pointing to a local int variable and .maxsize set to sizeof(int) and passing this one to proc_dointvec(), converting the value to/from bool as needed (using proc_dou8vec_minmax() as an example). 3. Extending sysctl_check_table() to enforce proc_dobool() expectations. 4. Fixing the proc_dobool() docstring (it was just copy-pasted from proc_douintvec, apparently...). 5. Converting all existing proc_dobool() users to set .maxsize to sizeof(bool) instead of sizeof(int).

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: add hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap sysctl We must add hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on (or "off") to the boot cmdline and reboot the server to enable or disable the feature of optimizing vmemmap pages associated with HugeTLB pages. However, rebooting usually takes a long time. So add a sysctl to enable or disable the feature at runtime without rebooting. Why we need this? There are 3 use cases. 1) The feature of minimizing overhead of struct page associated with each HugeTLB is disabled by default without passing "hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" to the boot cmdline. When we (ByteDance) deliver the servers to the users who want to enable this feature, they have to configure the grub (change boot cmdline) and reboot the servers, whereas rebooting usually takes a long time (we have thousands of servers). It's a very bad experience for the users. So we need a approach to enable this feature after rebooting. This is a use case in our practical environment. 2) Some use cases are that HugeTLB pages are allocated 'on the fly' instead of being pulled from the HugeTLB pool, those workloads would be affected with this feature enabled. Those workloads could be identified by the characteristics of they never explicitly allocating huge pages with 'nr_hugepages' but only set 'nr_overcommit_hugepages' and then let the pages be allocated from the buddy allocator at fault time. We can confirm it is a real use case from the commit 099730d67417. For those workloads, the page fault time could be ~2x slower than before.

mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: improve hugetlb_vmemmap code readability There is a discussion about the name of hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free in thread [1]. The suggestion suggested by David is rename "alloc/free" to "optimize/restore" to make functionalities clearer to users, "optimize" means the function will optimize vmemmap pages, while "restore" means restoring its vmemmap pages discared before. This commit does this. Another discussion is the confusion RESERVE_VMEMMAP_NR isn't used explicitly for vmemmap_addr but implicitly for vmemmap_end in hugetlb_vmemmap_alloc/free. David suggested we can compute what hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does now at runtime. We do not need to worry for the overhead of computing at runtime since the calculation is simple enough and those functions are not in a hot path. This commit has the following improvements: 1) The function suffixed name ("optimize/restore") is more expressive. 2) The logic becomes less weird in hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore(). 3) The hugetlb_vmemmap_init() does not need to be exported anymore. 4) A ->optimize_vmemmap_pages field in struct hstate is killed. 5) There is only one place where checks is_power_of_2(sizeof(struct page)) instead of two places. 6) Add more comments for hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize/restore(). 7) For external users, hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap_pages() is used for detecting if the HugeTLB's vmemmap pages is optimizable originally. In this commit, it is killed and we introduce a new helper hugetlb_vmemmap_optimizable() to replace it. The name is more expressive.
