      "message": "hugetlb: fix hugepage allocation with memoryless nodes\n\nAnton found a problem with the hugetlb pool allocation when some nodes have\nno memory (http://marc.info/?l\u003dlinux-mm\u0026m\u003d118133042025995\u0026w\u003d2).  Lee worked\non versions that tried to fix it, but none were accepted.  Christoph has\ncreated a set of patches which allow for GFP_THISNODE allocations to fail\nif the node has no memory.\n\nCurrently, alloc_fresh_huge_page() returns NULL when it is not able to\nallocate a huge page on the current node, as specified by its custom\ninterleave variable.  The callers of this function, though, assume that a\nfailure in alloc_fresh_huge_page() indicates no hugepages can be allocated\non the system period.  This might not be the case, for instance, if we have\nan uneven NUMA system, and we happen to try to allocate a hugepage on a\nnode with less memory and fail, while there is still plenty of free memory\non the other nodes.\n\nTo correct this, make alloc_fresh_huge_page() search through all online\nnodes before deciding no hugepages can be allocated.  Add a helper function\nfor actually allocating the hugepage.  Use a new global nid iterator to\ncontrol which nid to allocate on.\n\nNote: we expect particular semantics for __GFP_THISNODE, which are now\nenforced even for memoryless nodes.  That is, there is should be no\nfallback to other nodes.  Therefore, we rely on the nid passed into\nalloc_pages_node() to be the nid the page comes from.  If this is\nincorrect, accounting will break.\n\nTested on x86 !NUMA, x86 NUMA, x86_64 NUMA and ppc64 NUMA (with 2\nmemoryless nodes).\n\nBefore on the ppc64 box:\nTrying to clear the hugetlb pool\nDone.       0 free\nTrying to resize the pool to 100\nNode 0 HugePages_Free:     25\nNode 1 HugePages_Free:     75\nNode 2 HugePages_Free:      0\nNode 3 HugePages_Free:      0\nDone.

Having hugetlbfs specific ftruncate\nbehavior is a bit quirky and I would like to remove that artificial\nlimitation.\n\nSigned-off-by: \u003ckenchen@google.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Wiliam Irwin \u003cwli@holomorphy.com\u003e\nCc: Adam Litke \u003cagl@us.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: David Gibson \u003cdavid@gibson.dropbear.id.au\u003e\nCc: Nishanth Aravamudan \u003cnacc@us.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n"

      "message": "hugetlb: Move update_and_free_page\n\nDynamic huge page pool resizing.\n\nIn most real-world scenarios, configuring the size of the hugetlb pool\ncorrectly is a difficult task.  If too few pages are allocated to the pool,\napplications using MAP_SHARED may fail to mmap() a hugepage region and\napplications using MAP_PRIVATE may receive SIGBUS.  Isolating too much memory\nin the hugetlb pool means it is not available for other uses, especially those\nprograms not using huge pages.\n\nThe obvious answer is to let the hugetlb pool grow and shrink in response to\nthe runtime demand for huge pages.  The work Mel Gorman has been doing to\nestablish a memory zone for movable memory allocations makes dynamically\nresizing the hugetlb pool reliable within the limits of that zone.  This patch\nseries implements dynamic pool resizing for private and shared mappings while\nbeing careful to maintain existing semantics.  Please reply with your comments\nand feedback; even just to say whether it would be a useful feature to you.\nThanks.\n\nHow it works\n\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\n\nUpon depletion of the hugetlb pool, rather than reporting an error immediately,\nfirst try and allocate the needed huge pages directly from the buddy allocator.\nCare must be taken to avoid unbounded growth of the hugetlb pool, so the\nhugetlb filesystem quota is used to limit overall pool size.\n\nThe real work begins when we decide there is a shortage of huge pages.  What\nhappens next depends on whether the pages are for a private or shared mapping.\nPrivate mappings are straightforward.  At fault time, if alloc_huge_page()\nfails, we allocate a page from the buddy allocator and increment the source\nnode\u0027s surplus_huge_pages counter.  When free_huge_page() is called for a page\non a node with a surplus, the page is freed directly to the buddy allocator\ninstead of the hugetlb pool.\n\nBecause shared mappings require all of the pages to be reserved up front, some\nadditional work must be done at mmap() to support them.  We determine the\nreservation shortage and allocate the required number of pages all at once.\nThese pages are then added to the hugetlb pool and marked reserved.  Where that\nis not possible the mmap() will fail.  As with private mappings, the\nappropriate surplus counters are updated.  Since reserved huge pages won\u0027t\nnecessarily be used by the process, we can\u0027t be sure that free_huge_page() will\nalways be called to return surplus pages to the buddy allocator.  To prevent\nthe huge page pool from bloating, we must free unused surplus pages when their\nreservation has ended.\n\nControlling it\n\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\n\nWith the entire patch series applied, pool resizing is off by default so unless\nspecific action is taken, the semantics are unchanged.\n\nTo take advantage of the flexibility afforded by this patch series one must\ntolerate a change in semantics.  To control hugetlb pool growth, the following\ntechniques can be employed:\n\n * A sysctl tunable to enable/disable the feature entirely\n * The size\u003d mount option for hugetlbfs filesystems to limit pool size\n\nPerformance\n\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\n\nWhen contiguous memory is readily available, it is expected that the cost of\ndynamicly resizing the pool will be small.  This series has been performance\ntested with \u0027stream\u0027 to measure this cost.\n\nStream (http://www.cs.virginia.edu/stream/) was linked with libhugetlbfs to\nenable remapping of the text and data/bss segments into huge pages.\n\nStream with small array\n-----------------------\nBaseline: \tnr_hugepages \u003d 0, No libhugetlbfs segment remapping\nPreallocated:\tnr_hugepages \u003d 5, Text and data/bss remapping\nDynamic:\tnr_hugepages \u003d 0, Text and data/bss remapping\n\n\t\t\t\tRate (MB/s)\nFunction\tBaseline\tPreallocated\tDynamic\nCopy:\t\t4695.6266\t5942.8371\t5982.2287\nScale:\t\t4451.5776\t5017.1419\t5658.7843\nAdd:\t\t5815.8849\t7927.7827\t8119.3552\nTriad:\t\t5949.4144\t8527.6492\t8110.6903\n\nStream with large array\n-----------------------\nBaseline: \tnr_hugepages \u003d  0, No libhugetlbfs segment remapping\nPreallocated:\tnr_hugepages \u003d 67, Text and data/bss remapping\nDynamic:\tnr_hugepages \u003d  0, Text and data/bss remapping\n\n\t\t\t\tRate (MB/s)\nFunction\tBaseline\tPreallocated\tDynamic\nCopy:\t\t2227.8281\t2544.2732\t2546.4947\nScale:\t\t2136.3208\t2430.7294\t2421.2074\nAdd:\t\t2773.1449\t4004.0021\t3999.4331\nTriad:\t\t2748.4502\t3777.0109\t3773.4970\n\n* All numbers are averages taken from 10 consecutive runs with a maximum\n  standard deviation of 1.3 percent noted.\n\nThis patch:\n\nSimply move update_and_free_page() so that it can be reused later in this\npatch series.

These are\nperformance critical structures since the per node information has\nto be touched for every alloc and free in a slab.\n\nIn order to place the kmem_cache_cpu structure optimally we put an array\nof pointers to kmem_cache_cpu structs in kmem_cache (similar to SLAB).\n\nHowever, the kmem_cache_cpu structures can now be allocated in a more\nintelligent way.\n\nWe would like to put per cpu structures for the same cpu but different\nslab caches in cachelines together to save space and decrease the cache\nfootprint.

      "message": "SLUB: Avoid page struct cacheline bouncing due to remote frees to cpu slab\n\nA remote free may access the same page struct that also contains the lockless\nfreelist for the cpu slab. If objects have a short lifetime and are freed by\na different processor then remote frees back to the slab from which we are\ncurrently allocating are frequent. The cacheline with the page struct needs\nto be repeately acquired in exclusive mode by both the allocating thread and\nthe freeing thread. If this is frequent enough then performance will suffer\nbecause of cacheline bouncing.\n\nThis patchset puts the lockless_freelist pointer in its own cacheline. In\norder to make that happen we introduce a per cpu structure called\nkmem_cache_cpu.\n\nInstead of keeping an array of pointers to page structs we now keep an array\nto a per cpu structure that--among other things--contains the pointer to the\nlockless freelist. The freeing thread can then keep possession of exclusive\naccess to the page struct cacheline while the allocating thread keeps its\nexclusive access to the cacheline containing the per cpu structure.\n\nThis works as long as the allocating cpu is able to service its request\nfrom the lockless freelist. If the lockless freelist runs empty then the\nallocating thread needs to acquire exclusive access to the cacheline with\nthe page struct lock the slab.\n\nThe allocating thread will then check if new objects were freed to the per\ncpu slab. If so it will keep the slab as the cpu slab and continue with the\nrecently remote freed objects. So the allocating thread can take a series\nof just freed remote pages and dish them out again. Ideally allocations\ncould be just recycling objects in the same slab this way which will lead\nto an ideal allocation / remote free pattern.\n\nThe number of objects that can be handled in this way is limited by the\ncapacity of one slab. Increasing slab size via slub_min_objects/\nslub_max_order may increase the number of objects and therefore performance.\n\nIf the allocating thread runs out of objects and finds that no objects were\nput back by the remote processor then it will retrieve a new slab (from the\npartial lists or from the page allocator) and start with a whole\nnew set of objects while the remote thread may still be freeing objects to\nthe old cpu slab. This may then repeat until the new slab is also exhausted.\nIf remote freeing has freed objects in the earlier slab then that earlier\nslab will now be on the partial freelist and the allocating thread will\npick that slab next for allocation. So the loop is extended. However,\nboth threads need to take the list_lock to make the swizzling via\nthe partial list happen.\n\nIt is likely that this kind of scheme will keep the objects being passed\naround to a small set that can be kept in the cpu caches leading to increased\nperformance.\n\nMore code cleanups become possible:\n\n- Instead of passing a cpu we can now pass a kmem_cache_cpu structure around.\n  Allows reducing the number of parameters to various functions.\n- Can define a new node_match() function for NUMA to encapsulate locality\n  checks.\n\nEffect on allocations:\n\nCachelines touched before this patch:\n\n\tWrite:\tpage cache struct and first cacheline of object\n\nCachelines touched after this patch:\n\n\tWrite:\tkmem_cache_cpu cacheline and first cacheline of object\n\tRead: page cache struct (but see later patch that avoids touching\n\t\tthat cacheline)\n\nThe handling when the lockless alloc list runs empty gets to be a bit more\ncomplicated since another cacheline has now to be written to. But that is\nhalfway out of the hot path.\n\nEffect on freeing:\n\nCachelines touched before this patch:\n\n\tWrite: page_struct and first cacheline of object\n\nCachelines touched after this patch depending on how we free:\n\n  Write(to cpu_slab):\tkmem_cache_cpu struct and first cacheline of object\n  Write(to other):\tpage struct and first cacheline of object\n\n  Read(to cpu_slab):\tpage struct to id slab etc. (but see later patch that\n  \t\t\tavoids touching the page struct on free)\n  Read(to other):\tcpu local kmem_cache_cpu struct to verify its not\n  \t\t\tthe cpu slab.\n\nSummary:\n\nPro:\n\t- Distinct cachelines so that concurrent remote frees and local\n\t  allocs on a cpuslab can occur without cacheline bouncing.\n\t- Avoids potential bouncing cachelines because of neighboring\n\t  per cpu pointer updates in kmem_cache\u0027s cpu_slab structure since\n\t  it now grows to a cacheline (Therefore remove the comment\n\t  that talks about that concern).\n\nCons:\n\t- Freeing objects now requires the reading of one additional\n\t  cacheline. That can be mitigated for some cases by the following\n\t  patches but its not possible to completely eliminate these\n\t  references.\n\n\t- Memory usage grows slightly.\n\n\tThe size of each per cpu object is blown up from one word\n\t(pointing to the page_struct) to one cacheline with various data.\n\tSo this is NR_CPUS*NR_SLABS*L1_BYTES more memory use. Lets say\n\tNR_SLABS is 100 and a cache line size of 128 then we have just\n\tincreased SLAB metadata requirements by 12.8k per cpu.\n\t(Another later patch reduces these requirements)\n\nSigned-off-by: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n"

      "message": "Do not depend on MAX_ORDER when grouping pages by mobility\n\nCurrently mobility grouping works at the MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES level.  This makes\nsense for the majority of users where this is also the huge page size.\nHowever, on platforms like ia64 where the huge page size is runtime\nconfigurable it is desirable to group at a lower order.  On x86_64 and\noccasionally on x86, the hugepage size may not always be MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES.\n\nThis patch groups pages together based on the value of HUGETLB_PAGE_ORDER.  It\nuses a compile-time constant if possible and a variable where the huge page\nsize is runtime configurable.\n\nIt is assumed that grouping should be done at the lowest sensible order and\nthat the user would not want to override this.  If this is not true,\npage_block order could be forced to a variable initialised via a boot-time\nkernel parameter.\n\nOne potential issue with this patch is that IA64 now parses hugepagesz with\nearly_param() instead of __setup().  __setup() is called after the memory\nallocator has been initialised and the pageblock bitmaps already setup.  In\ntests on one IA64 there did not seem to be any problem with using\nearly_param() and in fact may be more correct as it guarantees the parameter\nis handled before the parsing of hugepages\u003d.\n\nSigned-off-by: Mel Gorman \u003cmel@csn.ul.ie\u003e\nAcked-by: Andy Whitcroft \u003capw@shadowen.org\u003e\nAcked-by: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n"

      "message": "Bias the location of pages freed for min_free_kbytes in the same MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES blocks\n\nThe standard buddy allocator always favours the smallest block of pages.\nThe effect of this is that the pages free to satisfy min_free_kbytes tends\nto be preserved since boot time at the same location of memory ffor a very\nlong time and as a contiguous block.  When an administrator sets the\nreserve at 16384 at boot time, it tends to be the same MAX_ORDER blocks\nthat remain free.  This allows the occasional high atomic allocation to\nsucceed up until the point the blocks are split.  In practice, it is\ndifficult to split these blocks but when they do split, the benefit of\nhaving min_free_kbytes for contiguous blocks disappears.  Additionally,\nincreasing min_free_kbytes once the system has been running for some time\nhas no guarantee of creating contiguous blocks.\n\nOn the other hand, CONFIG_PAGE_GROUP_BY_MOBILITY favours splitting large\nblocks when there are no free pages of the appropriate type available.  A\nside-effect of this is that all blocks in memory tends to be used up and\nthe contiguous free blocks from boot time are not preserved like in the\nvanilla allocator.  This can cause a problem if a new caller is unwilling\nto reclaim or does not reclaim for long enough.\n\nA failure scenario was found for a wireless network device allocating\norder-1 atomic allocations but the allocations were not intense or frequent\nenough for a whole block of pages to be preserved for MIGRATE_HIGHALLOC.\nThis was reproduced on a desktop by booting with mem\u003d256mb, forcing the\ndriver to allocate at order-1, running a bittorrent client (downloading a\ndebian ISO) and building a kernel with -j2.\n\nThis patch addresses the problem on the desktop machine booted with\nmem\u003d256mb.  It works by setting aside a reserve of MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES\nblocks, the number of which depends on the value of min_free_kbytes.  These\nblocks are only fallen back to when there is no other free pages.  Then the\nsmallest possible page is used just like the normal buddy allocator instead\nof the largest possible page to preserve contiguous pages The pages in free\nlists in the reserve blocks are never taken for another migrate type.  The\nresults is that even if min_free_kbytes is set to a low value, contiguous\nblocks will be preserved in the MIGRATE_RESERVE blocks.\n\nThis works better than the vanilla allocator because if min_free_kbytes is\nincreased, a new reserve block will be chosen based on the location of\nreclaimable pages and the block will free up as contiguous pages.  In the\nvanilla allocator, no effort is made to target a block of pages to free as\ncontiguous pages and min_free_kbytes pages are scattered randomly.\n\nThis effect has been observed on the test machine.  min_free_kbytes was set\ninitially low but it was kept as a contiguous free block within\nMIGRATE_RESERVE.  min_free_kbytes was then set to a higher value and over a\nperiod of time, the free blocks were within the reserve and coalescing.\nHow long it takes to free up depends on how quickly LRU is rotating.\nAmusingly, this means that more activity will free the blocks faster.\n\nThis mechanism potentially replaces MIGRATE_HIGHALLOC as it may be more\neffective than grouping contiguous free pages together.  It all depends on\nwhether the number of active atomic high allocations exceeds\nmin_free_kbytes or not.  If the number of active allocations exceeds\nmin_free_kbytes, it\u0027s worth it but maybe in that situation, min_free_kbytes\nshould be set higher.  Once there are no more reports of allocation\nfailures, a patch will be submitted that backs out MIGRATE_HIGHALLOC and\nsee if the reports stay missing.\n\nCredit to Mariusz Kozlowski for discovering the problem, describing the\nfailure scenario and testing patches and scenarios.\n\n[akpm@linux-foundation.org: cleanups]\nSigned-off-by: Mel Gorman \u003cmel@csn.ul.ie\u003e\nAcked-by: Andy Whitcroft \u003capw@shadowen.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n"

      "message": "Fix corruption of memmap on IA64 SPARSEMEM when mem_section is not a power of 2\n\nThere are problems in the use of SPARSEMEM and pageblock flags that causes\nproblems on ia64.\n\nThe first part of the problem is that units are incorrect in\nSECTION_BLOCKFLAGS_BITS computation.  This results in a map_section\u0027s\nsection_mem_map being treated as part of a bitmap which isn\u0027t good.  This\nwas evident with an invalid virtual address when mem_init attempted to free\nbootmem pages while relinquishing control from the bootmem allocator.\n\nThe second part of the problem occurs because the pageblock flags bitmap is\nbe located with the mem_section.  The SECTIONS_PER_ROOT computation using\nsizeof (mem_section) may not be a power of 2 depending on the size of the\nbitmap.  This renders masks and other such things not power of 2 base.\nThis issue was seen with SPARSEMEM_EXTREME on ia64.  This patch moves the\nbitmap outside of mem_section and uses a pointer instead in the\nmem_section.  The bitmaps are allocated when the section is being\ninitialised.\n\nNote that sparse_early_usemap_alloc() does not use alloc_remap() like\nsparse_early_mem_map_alloc().  The allocation required for the bitmap on\nx86, the only architecture that uses alloc_remap is typically smaller than\na cache line.  alloc_remap() pads out allocations to the cache size which\nwould be a needless waste.\n\nCredit to Bob Picco for identifying the original problem and effecting a\nfix for the SECTION_BLOCKFLAGS_BITS calculation.

Success rates for huge page allocation\nare dramatically increased.  For example, on a ppc64 machine, the vanilla\nkernel was only able to allocate 1% of memory as a hugepage and this was due\nto a single hugepage reserved as min_free_kbytes.

When pages are migrated (or reclaimed under\nmemory pressure), large contiguous pages will be freed.\n\nThis patch works by categorising allocations by their ability to migrate;\n\nMovable - The pages may be moved with the page migration mechanism. These are\n\tgenerally userspace pages.\n\nReclaimable - These are allocations for some kernel caches that are\n\treclaimable or allocations that are known to be very short-lived.\n\nUnmovable - These are pages that are allocated by the kernel that\n\tare not trivially reclaimed. For example, the memory allocated for a\n\tloaded module would be in this category. By default, allocations are\n\tconsidered to be of this type\n\nHighAtomic - These are high-order allocations belonging to callers that\n\tcannot sleep or perform any IO. In practice, this is restricted to\n\tjumbo frame allocation for network receive. It is assumed that the\n\tallocations are short-lived\n\nInstead of having one MAX_ORDER-sized array of free lists in struct free_area,\nthere is one for each type of reclaimability.  Once a 2^MAX_ORDER block of\npages is split for a type of allocation, it is added to the free-lists for\nthat type, in effect reserving it.  Hence, over time, pages of the different\ntypes can be clustered together.\n\nWhen the preferred freelists are expired, the largest possible block is taken\nfrom an alternative list.  Buddies that are split from that large block are\nplaced on the preferred allocation-type freelists to mitigate fragmentation.\n\nThis implementation gives best-effort for low fragmentation in all zones.\nIdeally, min_free_kbytes needs to be set to a value equal to 4 * (1 \u003c\u003c\n(MAX_ORDER-1)) pages in most cases.  This would be 16384 on x86 and x86_64 for\nexample.\n\nOur tests show that about 60-70% of physical memory can be allocated on a\ndesktop after a few days uptime.  In benchmarks and stress tests, we are\nfinding that 80% of memory is available as contiguous blocks at the end of the\ntest.  To compare, a standard kernel was getting \u003c 1% of memory as large pages\non a desktop and about 8-12% of memory as large pages at the end of stress\ntests.\n\nFollowing this email are 12 patches that implement thie page grouping feature.\n The first patch introduces a mechanism for storing flags related to a whole\nblock of pages.  Then allocations are split between movable and all other\nallocations.  Following that are patches to deal with per-cpu pages and make\nthe mechanism configurable.  The next patch moves free pages between lists\nwhen partially allocated blocks are used for pages of another migrate type.\nThe second last patch groups reclaimable kernel allocations such as inode\ncaches together.  The final patch related to groupings keeps high-order atomic\nallocations.\n\nThe last two patches are more concerned with control of fragmentation.  The\nsecond last patch biases placement of non-movable allocations towards the\nstart of memory.  This is with a view of supporting memory hot-remove of DIMMs\nwith higher PFNs in the future.  The biasing could be enforced a lot heavier\nbut it would cost.  The last patch agressively clusters reclaimable pages like\ninode caches together.\n\nThe fragmentation reduction strategy needs to track if pages within a block\ncan be moved or reclaimed so that pages are freed to the appropriate list.\nThis patch adds a bitmap for flags affecting a whole a MAX_ORDER block of\npages.\n\nIn non-SPARSEMEM configurations, the bitmap is stored in the struct zone and\nallocated during initialisation.  SPARSEMEM statically allocates the bitmap in\na struct mem_section so that bitmaps do not have to be resized during memory\nhotadd.  This wastes a small amount of memory per unused section (usually\nsizeof(unsigned long)) but the complexity of dynamically allocating the memory\nis quite high.\n\nAdditional credit to Andy Whitcroft who reviewed up an earlier implementation\nof the mechanism an suggested how to make it a *lot* cleaner.\n\nSigned-off-by: Mel Gorman \u003cmel@csn.ul.ie\u003e\nCc: Andy Whitcroft \u003capw@shadowen.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n"

That\u0027s a corner case but even setting it to 10 or lower can waste\nenormous amounts of cpu without making much progress.  We\u0027ve customers who\nwants to use swappiness but they can\u0027t because of the current\nimplementation (if you change it so the system stops swapping it really\nstops swapping and nothing works sane anymore if you really had to swap\nsomething to make progress).\n\nThis patch from Kurt Garloff makes swappiness safer to use (no more huge\ncpu usage or hangs with low swappiness values).\n\nI think the prev_priority can also be nuked since it wastes 4 bytes per\nzone (that would be an incremental patch but I wait the nr_scan_[in]active\nto be nuked first for similar reasons).  Clearly somebody at some point\nnoticed how broken that thing was and they had to add min(priority,\nprev_priority) to give it some reliability, but they didn\u0027t go the last\nmile to nuke prev_priority too.  Calculating distress only in function of\nnot-racy priority is correct and sure more than enough without having to\nadd randomness into the equation.\n\nPatch is tested on older kernels but it compiles and it\u0027s quite simple\nso...\n\nOverall I\u0027m not very satisified by the swappiness tweak, since it doesn\u0027t\nrally do anything with the dirty pagecache that may be inactive.  We need\nanother kind of tweak that controls the inactive scan and tunes the\ncan_writepage feature (not yet in mainline despite having submitted it a\nfew times), not only the active one.  That new tweak will tell the kernel\nhow hard to scan the inactive list for pure clean pagecache (something the\nmainline kernel isn\u0027t capable of yet).  We already have that feature\nworking in all our enterprise kernels with the default reasonable tune, or\nthey can\u0027t even run a readonly backup with tar without triggering huge\nwrite I/O.

Current SGI\n\u003e platforms have nodes with just I/O that we so far cannot manage in the\n\u003e core. So the arch code maps them to the nearest memory node.\n\nLee Schermerhorn \u003cLee.Schermerhorn@hp.com\u003e wrote:\n\n\u003e For the HP platforms, we can configure each cell with from 0% to 100%\n\u003e \"cell local memory\".  When we configure with \u003c100% CLM, the \"missing\n\u003e percentages\" are interleaved by hardware on a cache-line granularity to\n\u003e improve bandwidth at the expense of latency for numa-challenged\n\u003e applications [and OSes, but not our problem ;-)].  When we boot Linux on\n\u003e such a config, all of the real nodes have no memory--it all resides in a\n\u003e single interleaved pseudo-node.\n\u003e\n\u003e When we boot Linux on a 100% CLM configuration [\u003d\u003d NUMA], we still have\n\u003e the interleaved pseudo-node.  It contains a few hundred MB stolen from\n\u003e the real nodes to contain the DMA zone.  [Interleaved memory resides at\n\u003e phys addr 0].  The memoryless-nodes patches, along with the zoneorder\n\u003e patches, support this config as well.\n\u003e\n\u003e Also, when we boot a NUMA config with the \"mem\u003d\" command line,\n\u003e specifying less memory than actually exists, Linux takes the excluded\n\u003e memory \"off the top\" rather than distributing it across the nodes.  This\n\u003e can result in memoryless nodes, as well.\n\u003e\n\nThis patch:\n\nPreparation for memoryless node patches.\n\nProvide a generic way to keep nodemasks describing various characteristics of\nNUMA nodes.\n\nRemove the node_online_map and the node_possible map and realize the same\nfunctionality using two nodes stats: N_POSSIBLE and N_ONLINE.\n\n[Lee.Schermerhorn@hp.com: Initialize N_*_MEMORY and N_CPU masks for non-NUMA config]\nSigned-off-by: Christoph Lameter \u003cclameter@sgi.com\u003e\nTested-by: Lee Schermerhorn \u003clee.schermerhorn@hp.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Lee Schermerhorn \u003clee.schermerhorn@hp.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Bob Picco \u003cbob.picco@hp.com\u003e\nCc: Nishanth Aravamudan \u003cnacc@us.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki \u003ckamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com\u003e\nCc: Mel Gorman \u003cmel@skynet.ie\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Lee Schermerhorn \u003clee.schermerhorn@hp.com\u003e\nCc: \"Serge E.
