In other areas, further inspection reveals that I botched the\nunref for interleave policies.\n\nA separate patch, suitable for upstream/stable trees, fixes up the known\nerrors in the previous attempt to fix reference counting.\n\nThis patch reworks the memory policy referencing counting and, one hopes,\nsimplifies the code. Maybe I\u0027ll get it right this time.\n\nSee the update to the numa_memory_policy.txt document for a discussion of\nmemory policy reference counting that motivates this patch.\n\nSummary:\n\nLookup of mempolicy, based on (vma, address) need only add a reference for\nshared policy, and we need only unref the policy when finished for shared\npolicies. So, this patch backs out all of the unneeded extra reference\ncounting added by my previous attempt. It then unrefs only shared policies\nwhen we\u0027re finished with them, using the mpol_cond_put() [conditional put]\nhelper function introduced by this patch.\n\nNote that shmem_swapin() calls read_swap_cache_async() with a dummy vma\ncontaining just the policy. read_swap_cache_async() can call alloc_page_vma()\nmultiple times, so we can\u0027t let alloc_page_vma() unref the shared policy in\nthis case. To avoid this, we make a copy of any non-null shared policy and\nremove the MPOL_F_SHARED flag from the copy. This copy occurs before reading\na page [or multiple pages] from swap, so the overhead should not be an issue\nhere.\n\nI introduced a new static inline function \"mpol_cond_copy()\" to copy the\nshared policy to an on-stack policy and remove the flags that would require a\nconditional free. The current implementation of mpol_cond_copy() assumes that\nthe struct mempolicy contains no pointers to dynamically allocated structures\nthat must be duplicated or reference counted during copy.\n\nSigned-off-by: Lee Schermerhorn \u003clee.schermerhorn@hp.com\u003e\nCc: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\nCc: David Rientjes \u003crientjes@google.com\u003e\nCc: Mel Gorman \u003cmel@csn.ul.ie\u003e\nCc: Andi Kleen \u003cak@suse.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "a6020ed759404372e8be2b276e85e51735472cc9", "tree": "1fb0a346909dcc9d3b916671001af87b17931ddd", "parents": [ "aab0b1029f0843756b68e0ed3ca983685bf43ed6" ], "author": { "name": "Lee Schermerhorn", "email": "lee.schermerhorn@hp.com", "time": "Mon Apr 28 02:13:14 2008 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Mon Apr 28 08:58:24 2008 -0700" }, "message": "mempolicy: document {set|get}_policy() vm_ops APIs\n\nDocument mempolicy return value reference semantics assumed by the rest of the\nmempolicy code for the set_ and get_policy vm_ops in \u003clinux/mm.h\u003e--where the\nprototypes are defined--to inform any future mempolicy vm_op writers what the\nrest of the subsystem expects of them.\n\nSigned-off-by: Lee Schermerhorn \u003clee.schermerhorn@hp.com\u003e\nCc: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\nCc: David Rientjes \u003crientjes@google.com\u003e\nCc: Mel Gorman \u003cmel@csn.ul.ie\u003e\nCc: Andi Kleen \u003cak@suse.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "aab0b1029f0843756b68e0ed3ca983685bf43ed6", "tree": "95a0546c908a1c7a3bf1353f433ff1464faf68db", "parents": [ "45c4745af381851b0406d8e4db99e62e265691c2" ], "author": { "name": "Lee Schermerhorn", "email": "lee.schermerhorn@hp.com", "time": "Mon Apr 28 02:13:13 2008 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Mon Apr 28 08:58:24 2008 -0700" }, "message": "mempolicy: mark shared policies for unref\n\nAs part of yet another rework of mempolicy reference counting, we want to be\nable to identify shared policies efficiently, because they have an extra ref\ntaken on lookup that needs to be removed when we\u0027re finished using the policy.\n\n Note: the extra ref is required because the policies are\n shared between tasks/processes and can be changed/freed\n by one task while another task is using them--e.g., for\n page allocation.\n\nBuilding on David Rientjes mempolicy \"mode flags\" enhancement, this patch\nindicates a \"shared\" policy by setting a new MPOL_F_SHARED flag in the flags\nmember of the struct mempolicy added by David.

We do\nnot want architectures to know or care about vm_normal_page itself, and\nwe definitely don\u0027t want them being able to invent something new there\nout of sight of mm/ code. If we made vm_normal_page an arch function, then\nwe have to make vm_insert_mixed (next patch) an arch function too. So I\ndon\u0027t think moving it to arch code fundamentally improves any abstractions,\nwhile it does practically make the code more difficult to follow, for both\nmm and arch developers, and easier to misuse.\n\n[akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fix]\nSigned-off-by: Nick Piggin \u003cnpiggin@suse.de\u003e\nAcked-by: Carsten Otte \u003ccotte@de.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Jared Hulbert \u003cjaredeh@gmail.com\u003e\nCc: Martin Schwidefsky \u003cschwidefsky@de.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Heiko Carstens \u003cheiko.carstens@de.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "b379d790197cdf8a95fb67507d75a24ac0a1678d", "tree": "8ea36c9a0766aca3cfd69cd33aa8a5d2ca8dd2d4", "parents": [ "214e471ff99064726b2d8af3aa0e24a73c775531" ], "author": { "name": "Jared Hulbert", "email": "jaredeh@gmail.com", "time": "Mon Apr 28 02:12:58 2008 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Mon Apr 28 08:58:22 2008 -0700" }, "message": "mm: introduce VM_MIXEDMAP\n\nThis series introduces some important infrastructure work. The overall result\nis that:\n\n1. We now support XIP backed filesystems using memory that have no\n struct page allocated to them. And patches 6 and 7 actually implement\n this for s390.\n\n This is pretty important in a number of cases. As far as I understand,\n in the case of virtualisation (eg. s390), each guest may mount a\n readonly copy of the same filesystem (eg. the distro). Currently,\n guests need to allocate struct pages for this image. So if you have\n 100 guests, you already need to allocate more memory for the struct\n pages than the size of the image. I think. (Carsten?)\n\n For other (eg. embedded) systems, you may have a very large non-\n volatile filesystem. If you have to have struct pages for this, then\n your RAM consumption will go up proportionally to fs size. Even\n though it is just a small proportion, the RAM can be much more costly\n eg in terms of power, so every KB less that Linux uses makes it more\n attractive to a lot of these guys.\n\n2. VM_MIXEDMAP allows us to support mappings where you actually do want\n to refcount _some_ pages in the mapping, but not others, and support\n COW on arbitrary (non-linear) mappings. Jared needs this for his NVRAM\n filesystem in progress. Future iterations of this filesystem will\n most likely want to migrate pages between pagecache and XIP backing,\n which is where the requirement for mixed (some refcounted, some not)\n comes from.\n\n3. pte_special also has a peripheral usage that I need for my lockless\n get_user_pages patch. That was shown to speed up \"oltp\" on db2 by\n 10% on a 2 socket system, which is kind of significant because they\n scrounge for months to try to find 0.1% improvement on these\n workloads. I\u0027m hoping we might finally be faster than AIX on\n pSeries with this :). My reference to lockless get_user_pages is not\n meant to justify this patchset (which doesn\u0027t include lockless gup),\n but just to show that pte_special is not some s390 specific thing that\n should be hidden in arch code or xip code: I definitely want to use it\n on at least x86 and powerpc as well.\n\nThis patch:\n\nIntroduce a new type of mapping, VM_MIXEDMAP. This is unlike VM_PFNMAP in\nthat it can support COW mappings of arbitrary ranges including ranges without\nstruct page *and* ranges with a struct page that we actually want to refcount\n(PFNMAP can only support COW in those cases where the un-COW-ed translations\nare mapped linearly in the virtual address, and can only support non\nrefcounted ranges).\n\nVM_MIXEDMAP achieves this by refcounting all pfn_valid pages, and not\nrefcounting !pfn_valid pages (which is not an option for VM_PFNMAP, because it\nneeds to avoid refcounting pfn_valid pages eg. for /dev/mem mappings).\n\nSigned-off-by: Jared Hulbert \u003cjaredeh@gmail.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Nick Piggin \u003cnpiggin@suse.de\u003e\nAcked-by: Carsten Otte \u003ccotte@de.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Jared Hulbert \u003cjaredeh@gmail.com\u003e\nCc: Martin Schwidefsky \u003cschwidefsky@de.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Heiko Carstens \u003cheiko.carstens@de.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "e20b8cca760ed2a6abcfe37ef56f2306790db648", "tree": "85e5610364f73da193ee781be61710fddfbe045f", "parents": [ "97965478a66fbdf0f4ad5e4ecc4828f0cb548a45" ], "author": { "name": "Christoph Lameter", "email": "clameter@sgi.com", "time": "Mon Apr 28 02:12:55 2008 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Mon Apr 28 08:58:22 2008 -0700" }, "message": "PAGEFLAGS_EXTENDED and separate page flags for Head and Tail\n\nHaving separate page flags for the head and the tail of a compound page allows\nthe compiler to use bitops instead of operations on a word to check for a tail\npage.

This patch has the effect\nof reducing the number of bits used in page-\u003eflags by at least 6.\n\nSigned-off-by: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\nCc: Andy Whitcroft

These bitmap operators\n(and their nodemask wrappers, in particular) will be used in code that\nconverts the user specified cpuset relative memory policy to a specific system\nnode numbered policy, given the current mems_allowed of the tasks cpuset.\n\nSuch cpuset relative mempolicies will address two deficiencies\nof the existing interface between cpusets and mempolicies:\n 1) A task cannot at present reliably establish a cpuset\n relative mempolicy because there is an essential race\n condition, in that the tasks cpuset may be changed in\n between the time the task can query its cpuset placement,\n and the time the task can issue the applicable mbind or\n set_memplicy system call.\n 2) A task cannot at present establish what cpuset relative\n mempolicy it would like to have, if it is in a smaller\n cpuset than it might have mempolicy preferences for,\n because the existing interface only allows specifying\n mempolicies for nodes currently allowed by the cpuset.\n\nCpuset relative mempolicies are useful for tasks that don\u0027t distinguish\nparticularly between one CPU or Node and another, but only between how many of\neach are allowed, and the proper placement of threads and memory pages on the\nvarious CPUs and Nodes available.\n\nThe motivation for the added bitmap_fold() can be seen in the following\nexample.\n\nLet\u0027s say an application has specified some mempolicies that presume 16 memory\nnodes, including say a mempolicy that specified MPOL_F_RELATIVE_NODES (cpuset\nrelative) nodes 12-15. Then lets say that application is crammed into a\ncpuset that only has 8 memory nodes, 0-7. If one just uses bitmap_onto(),\nthis mempolicy, mapped to that cpuset, would ignore the requested relative\nnodes above 7, leaving it empty of nodes. That\u0027s not good; better to fold the\nhigher nodes down, so that some nodes are included in the resulting mapped\nmempolicy. In this case, the mempolicy nodes 12-15 are taken modulo 8 (the\nweight of the mems_allowed of the confining cpuset), resulting in a mempolicy\nspecifying nodes 4-7.\n\nSigned-off-by: Paul Jackson \u003cpj@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: David Rientjes \u003crientjes@google.com\u003e\nCc: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\nCc: Andi Kleen \u003cak@suse.de\u003e\nCc: Mel Gorman \u003cmel@csn.ul.ie\u003e\nCc: Lee Schermerhorn \u003clee.schermerhorn@hp.com\u003e\nCc: \u003ckosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nCc: \u003cray-lk@madrabbit.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "f5b087b52f1710eb0bf15a2d2b030c51a6a1ca9e", "tree": "66336235822f59215707dfa501e1d2b66b38a015", "parents": [ "028fec414d803117eb4b2ed12acb4dd5da65b32d" ], "author": { "name": "David Rientjes", "email": "rientjes@google.com", "time": "Mon Apr 28 02:12:27 2008 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Mon Apr 28 08:58:19 2008 -0700" }, "message": "mempolicy: add MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES flag\n\nAdd an optional mempolicy mode flag, MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, that suppresses the\nnode remap when the policy is rebound.\n\nAdds another member to struct mempolicy, nodemask_t user_nodemask, as part of\na union with cpuset_mems_allowed:\n\n\tstruct mempolicy {\n\t\t...\n\t\tunion {\n\t\t\tnodemask_t cpuset_mems_allowed;\n\t\t\tnodemask_t user_nodemask;\n\t\t} w;\n\t}\n\nthat stores the the nodemask that the user passed when he or she created the\nmempolicy via set_mempolicy() or mbind().

The patches as a set fix a bug with\nregard to the use of MPOL_BIND and ZONE_MOVABLE. With this patchset, the\nMPOL_BIND will apply to the two highest zones when the highest zone is\nZONE_MOVABLE. This should be considered as an alternative fix for the\nMPOL_BIND+ZONE_MOVABLE in 2.6.23 to the previously discussed hack that filters\nonly custom zonelists.\n\nThe first patch cleans up an inconsistency where direct reclaim uses\nzonelist-\u003ezones where other places use zonelist.\n\nThe second patch introduces a helper function node_zonelist() for looking up\nthe appropriate zonelist for a GFP mask which simplifies patches later in the\nset.\n\nThe third patch defines/remembers the \"preferred zone\" for numa statistics, as\nit is no longer always the first zone in a zonelist.\n\nThe forth patch replaces multiple zonelists with two zonelists that are\nfiltered. The two zonelists are due to the fact that the memoryless patchset\nintroduces a second set of zonelists for __GFP_THISNODE.\n\nThe fifth patch introduces helper macros for retrieving the zone and node\nindices of entries in a zonelist.\n\nThe final patch introduces filtering of the zonelists based on a nodemask.\nTwo zonelists exist per node, one for normal allocations and one for\n__GFP_THISNODE.\n\nPerformance results varied depending on the machine configuration. In real\nworkloads the gain/loss will depend on how much the userspace portion of the\nbenchmark benefits from having more cache available due to reduced referencing\nof zonelists.\n\nThese are the range of performance losses/gains when running against\n2.6.24-rc4-mm1. The set and these machines are a mix of i386, x86_64 and\nppc64 both NUMA and non-NUMA.\n\t\t\t loss to gain\nTotal CPU time on Kernbench: -0.86% to 1.13%\nElapsed time on Kernbench: -0.79% to 0.76%\npage_test from aim9: -4.37% to 0.79%\nbrk_test from aim9: -0.71% to 4.07%\nfork_test from aim9: -1.84% to 4.60%\nexec_test from aim9: -0.71% to 1.08%\n\nThis patch:\n\nThe allocator deals with zonelists which indicate the order in which zones\nshould be targeted for an allocation. Similarly, direct reclaim of pages\niterates over an array of zones. For consistency, this patch converts direct\nreclaim to use a zonelist. No functionality is changed by this patch. This\nsimplifies zonelist iterators in the next patch.\n\nSigned-off-by: Mel Gorman \u003cmel@csn.ul.ie\u003e\nAcked-by: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Lee Schermerhorn \u003clee.schermerhorn@hp.com\u003e\nCc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki \u003ckamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nCc: Mel Gorman \u003cmel@csn.ul.ie\u003e\nCc: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\nCc: Hugh Dickins \u003chugh@veritas.com\u003e\nCc: Nick Piggin \u003cnickpiggin@yahoo.com.au\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "3c18ddd160d1fcd46d1131d9ad6c594dd8e9af99", "tree": "7307ba1ae4bdb99d1363eb59b1ebefcf5295c8ef", "parents": [ "4d3d5b41a72b52555d43efbfc4ccde6ba6e5444f" ], "author": { "name": "Nick Piggin", "email": "npiggin@suse.de", "time": "Mon Apr 28 02:12:10 2008 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@linux-foundation.org", "time": "Mon Apr 28 08:58:18 2008 -0700" }, "message": "mm: remove nopage\n\nNothing in the tree uses nopage any more.

Using these new functions, we can modify the x86\nMMU to no longer assume that it can always get a struct page for any given gfn.\n\nWe don\u0027t want to eliminate gfn_to_page() entirely because a number of places\nassume they can do gfn_to_page() and then kmap() the results. When we support\nIO memory, gfn_to_page() will fail for IO pages although gfn_to_pfn() will\nsucceed.\n\nThis does not implement support for avoiding reference counting for reserved\nRAM or for IO memory. However, it should make those things pretty straight\nforward.\n\nSince we\u0027re only introducing new common symbols, I don\u0027t think it will break\nthe non-x86 architectures but I haven\u0027t tested those. I\u0027ve tested Intel,\nAMD, NPT, and hugetlbfs with Windows and Linux guests.\n\n[avi: fix overflow when shifting left pfns by adding casts]\n\nSigned-off-by: Anthony Liguori \u003caliguori@us.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Avi Kivity \u003cavi@qumranet.com\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "1a9c1ac46990194f6b6ddc591c24e385e611fa25", "tree": "0ad75083d4f8a992238a18e2816d2b16affff35b", "parents": [ "e235f3450f5bf94b989746163b7791784a78ee05" ], "author": { "name": "Xiantao Zhang", "email": "xiantao.zhang@intel.com", "time": "Tue Apr 01 14:45:06 2008 +0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Avi Kivity", "email": "avi@qumranet.com", "time": "Sun Apr 27 12:01:02 2008 +0300" }, "message": "KVM: ia64: Add header files for kvm/ia64\n\nThree header files are added:\nasm-ia64/kvm.h\nasm-ia64/kvm_host.h\nasm-ia64/kvm_para.h\n\nSigned-off-by: Xiantao Zhang \u003cxiantao.zhang@intel.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Avi Kivity \u003cavi@qumranet.com\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "e235f3450f5bf94b989746163b7791784a78ee05", "tree": "460b30df8a12e0c3f608da381e7d10075cdeb286", "parents": [ "c71799c1f404c6e4f34fa64e6be39cd6149e5019" ], "author": { "name": "Xiantao Zhang", "email": "xiantao.zhang@intel.com", "time": "Tue Apr 01 14:42:00 2008 +0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Avi Kivity", "email": "avi@qumranet.com", "time": "Sun Apr 27 12:01:01 2008 +0300" }, "message": "KVM: ia64: Prepare some structure and routines for kvm use\n\nRegister structures are defined per SDM.\nAdd three small routines for kernel:\nia64_ttag, ia64_loadrs, ia64_flushrs\n\nSigned-off-by: Xiantao Zhang \u003cxiantao.zhang@intel.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Avi Kivity \u003cavi@qumranet.com\u003e\n" } ], "next": "c71799c1f404c6e4f34fa64e6be39cd6149e5019" }
