When a process expects no accesses to a certain memory range for a long
time, it could hint kernel that the pages can be reclaimed instantly but
data should be preserved for future use. This could reduce workingset
eviction so it ends up increasing performance.
This patch introduces the new MADV_PAGEOUT hint to madvise(2) syscall.
MADV_PAGEOUT can be used by a process to mark a memory range as not
expected to be used for a long time so that kernel reclaims *any LRU*
pages instantly. The hint can help kernel in deciding which pages to
evict proactively.
A note: It doesn't apply SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX LRU page isolation limit
intentionally because it's automatically bounded by PMD size. If PMD
size(e.g., 256) makes some trouble, we could fix it later by limit it to
SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX[1].
- man-page material
MADV_PAGEOUT (since Linux x.x)
Do not expect access in the near future so pages in the specified
regions could be reclaimed instantly regardless of memory pressure.
Thus, access in the range after successful operation could cause
major page fault but never lose the up-to-date contents unlike
MADV_DONTNEED. Pages belonging to a shared mapping are only processed
if a write access is allowed for the calling process.
MADV_PAGEOUT cannot be applied to locked pages, Huge TLB pages, or
VM_PFNMAP pages.

Patch series "Introduce MADV_COLD and MADV_PAGEOUT", v7.
- Background
The Android terminology used for forking a new process and starting an app
from scratch is a cold start, while resuming an existing app is a hot
start. While we continually try to improve the performance of cold
starts, hot starts will always be significantly less power hungry as well
as faster so we are trying to make hot start more likely than cold start.
To increase hot start, Android userspace manages the order that apps
should be killed in a process called ActivityManagerService.
ActivityManagerService tracks every Android app or service that the user
could be interacting with at any time and translates that into a ranked
list for lmkd(low memory killer daemon). They are likely to be killed by
lmkd if the system has to reclaim memory. In that sense they are similar
to entries in any other cache. Those apps are kept alive for
opportunistic performance improvements but those performance improvements
will vary based on the memory requirements of individual workloads.
- Problem
Naturally, cached apps were dominant consumers of memory on the system.
However, they were not significant consumers of swap even though they are
good candidate for swap. Under investigation, swapping out only begins
once the low zone watermark is hit and kswapd wakes up, but the overall
allocation rate in the system might trip lmkd thresholds and cause a
cached process to be killed(we measured performance swapping out vs.
zapping the memory by killing a process. Unsurprisingly, zapping is 10x
times faster even though we use zram which is much faster than real
storage) so kill from lmkd will often satisfy the high zone watermark,
resulting in very few pages actually being moved to swap.
- Approach
The approach we chose was to use a new interface to allow userspace to
proactively reclaim entire processes by leveraging platform information.
This allowed us to bypass the inaccuracy of the kernel’s LRUs for pages
that are known to be cold from userspace and to avoid races with lmkd by
reclaiming apps as soon as they entered the cached state. Additionally,
it could provide many chances for platform to use much information to
optimize memory efficiency.
To achieve the goal, the patchset introduce two new options for madvise.
One is MADV_COLD which will deactivate activated pages and the other is
MADV_PAGEOUT which will reclaim private pages instantly. These new
options complement MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE by adding non-destructive
ways to gain some free memory space. MADV_PAGEOUT is similar to
MADV_DONTNEED in a way that it hints the kernel that memory region is not
currently needed and should be reclaimed immediately; MADV_COLD is similar
to MADV_FREE in a way that it hints the kernel that memory region is not
currently needed and should be reclaimed when memory pressure rises.
This patch (of 5):
When a process expects no accesses to a certain memory range, it could
give a hint to kernel that the pages can be reclaimed when memory pressure
happens but data should be preserved for future use. This could reduce
workingset eviction so it ends up increasing performance.
This patch introduces the new MADV_COLD hint to madvise(2) syscall.
MADV_COLD can be used by a process to mark a memory range as not expected
to be used in the near future. The hint can help kernel in deciding which
pages to evict early during memory pressure.
It works for every LRU pages like MADV_[DONTNEED|FREE]. IOW, It moves
active file page -> inactive file LRU
active anon page -> inacdtive anon LRU
Unlike MADV_FREE, it doesn't move active anonymous pages to inactive file
LRU's head because MADV_COLD is a little bit different symantic.
MADV_FREE means it's okay to discard when the memory pressure because the
content of the page is *garbage* so freeing such pages is almost zero
overhead since we don't need to swap out and access afterward causes just
minor fault. Thus, it would make sense to put those freeable pages in
inactive file LRU to compete other used-once pages. It makes sense for
implmentaion point of view, too because it's not swapbacked memory any
longer until it would be re-dirtied. Even, it could give a bonus to make
them be reclaimed on swapless system. However, MADV_COLD doesn't mean
garbage so reclaiming them requires swap-out/in in the end so it's bigger
cost. Since we have designed VM LRU aging based on cost-model, anonymous
cold pages would be better to position inactive anon's LRU list, not file
LRU. Furthermore, it would help to avoid unnecessary scanning if system
doesn't have a swap device. Let's start simpler way without adding
complexity at this moment. However, keep in mind, too that it's a caveat
that workloads with a lot of pages cache are likely to ignore MADV_COLD on
anonymous memory because we rarely age anonymous LRU lists.
* man-page material
MADV_COLD (since Linux x.x)
Pages in the specified regions will be treated as less-recently-accessed
compared to pages in the system with similar access frequencies. In
contrast to MADV_FREE, the contents of the region are preserved regardless
of subsequent writes to pages.
MADV_COLD cannot be applied to locked pages, Huge TLB pages, or VM_PFNMAP
pages.

Both pgtable_cache_init() and pgd_cache_init() are used to initialize kmem
cache for page table allocations on several architectures that do not use
PAGE_SIZE tables for one or more levels of the page table hierarchy.
Most architectures do not implement these functions and use __weak default
NOP implementation of pgd_cache_init(). Since there is no such default
for pgtable_cache_init(), its empty stub is duplicated among most
architectures.
Rename the definitions of pgd_cache_init() to pgtable_cache_init() and
drop empty stubs of pgtable_cache_init().

Patch series "mm: remove quicklist page table caches".
A while ago Nicholas proposed to remove quicklist page table caches [1].
I've rebased his patch on the curren upstream and switched ia64 and sh to
use generic versions of PTE allocation.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190711030339.20892-1-npiggin@gmail.com
This patch (of 3):
Remove page table allocator "quicklists". These have been around for a
long time, but have not got much traction in the last decade and are only
used on ia64 and sh architectures.
The numbers in the initial commit look interesting but probably don't
apply anymore. If anybody wants to resurrect this it's in the git
history, but it's unhelpful to have this code and divergent allocator
behaviour for minor archs.
Also it might be better to instead make more general improvements to page
allocator if this is still so slow.

This patch adds SO_DETACH_REUSEPORT_BPF sockopt. The same
sockopt can be used to undo both SO_ATTACH_REUSEPORT_[CE]BPF.
reseport_detach_prog() is added and it is mostly a mirror
of the existing reuseport_attach_prog(). The differences are,
it does not call reuseport_alloc() and returns -ENOENT when
there is no old prog.

This patch implements dynamic ftrace for PA-RISC. The required mcount
call sequences can get pretty long, so instead of patching the
whole call sequence out of the functions, we are using
-fpatchable-function-entry from gcc. This puts a configurable amount of
NOPS before/at the start of the function. Taking do_sys_open() as example,
which would look like this when the call is patched out:
1036b248: 08 00 02 40 nop
1036b24c: 08 00 02 40 nop
1036b250: 08 00 02 40 nop
1036b254: 08 00 02 40 nop
1036b258 <do_sys_open>:
1036b258: 08 00 02 40 nop
1036b25c: 08 03 02 41 copy r3,r1
1036b260: 6b c2 3f d9 stw rp,-14(sp)
1036b264: 08 1e 02 43 copy sp,r3
1036b268: 6f c1 01 00 stw,ma r1,80(sp)
When ftrace gets enabled for this function the kernel will patch these
NOPs to:
1036b248: 10 19 57 20 <address of ftrace>
1036b24c: 6f c1 00 80 stw,ma r1,40(sp)
1036b250: 48 21 3f d1 ldw -18(r1),r1
1036b254: e8 20 c0 02 bv,n r0(r1)
1036b258 <do_sys_open>:
1036b258: e8 3f 1f df b,l,n .-c,r1
1036b25c: 08 03 02 41 copy r3,r1
1036b260: 6b c2 3f d9 stw rp,-14(sp)
1036b264: 08 1e 02 43 copy sp,r3
1036b268: 6f c1 01 00 stw,ma r1,80(sp)
So the first NOP in do_sys_open() will be patched to jump backwards into
some minimal trampoline code which pushes a stackframe, saves r1 which
holds the return address, loads the address of the real ftrace function,
and branches to that location. For 64 Bit things are getting a bit more
complicated (and longer) because we must make sure that the address of
ftrace location is 8 byte aligned, and the offset passed to ldd for
fetching the address is 8 byte aligned as well.
Note that gcc has a bug which misplaces the function label, and needs a
patch to make dynamic ftrace work. See
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=90751 for details.

Pull parisc fixes from Helge Deller:
- Fix crashes when accessing PCI devices on some machines like C240 and
J5000. The crashes were triggered because we replaced cache flushes
by nops in the alternative coding where we shouldn't for some
machines.
- Dave fixed a race in the usage of the sr1 space register when used to
load the coherence index.
- Use the hardware lpa instruction to to load the physical address of
kernel virtual addresses in the iommu driver code.
- The kernel may fail to link when CONFIG_MLONGCALLS isn't set. Solve
that by rearranging functions in the final vmlinux executeable.
- Some defconfig cleanups and removal of compiler warnings.

Most I/O in the kernel is done using the kernel offset mapping.
However, there is one API that uses aliased kernel address ranges:
> The final category of APIs is for I/O to deliberately aliased address
> ranges inside the kernel. Such aliases are set up by use of the

For this reason, we should use the hardware lpa instruction to load the
physical address of kernel virtual addresses in the driver code.
I believe we only use the vmap/vmalloc API with old PA 1.x processors
which don't have a sba, so we don't hit this problem.
Tested on c3750, c8000 and rp3440.

This patch modifies the initial page mapping functions in the following way:
During bootup the init, text and data pages will be mapped RWX and if
supported, with huge pages.
At final stage of the bootup, the kernel calls free_initmem() and then all
pages will be remapped either R-X (for text and read-only data) or RW- (for
data). The __init pages will be dropped.
This reflects the behaviour of the x86 platform.

Pull unified TLB flushing from Ingo Molnar:
"This contains the generic mmu_gather feature from Peter Zijlstra,
which is an all-arch unification of TLB flushing APIs, via the
following (broad) steps:
- enhance the <asm-generic/tlb.h> APIs to cover more arch details
- convert most TLB flushing arch implementations to the generic
<asm-generic/tlb.h> APIs.
- remove leftovers of per arch implementations
After this series every single architecture makes use of the unified
TLB flushing APIs"

LEVEL is a very common word, and now after many years it suddenly
clashed with another LEVEL define in the DRBD code.
Rename it to PA_ASM_LEVEL instead.

PA-RISC uses a global spinlock to protect pagetable updates in the TLB
fault handlers. When multiple cores are taking TLB faults simultaneously,
the cache line containing the spinlock becomes a bottleneck.
This patch embeds the spinlock in the top level page directory, so that
every process has its own lock. It improves performance by 30% when
doing parallel compilations.
At least on the N class systems, only one PxTLB inter processor
broadcast can be active at any one time on the Merced bus. If a Merced
bus is found, this patch serializes the TLB flushes with the
pa_tlb_flush_lock spinlock.

The pdtlb and pitlb instructions are strongly ordered. The asms invoking
these instructions should be compiler memory barriers to ensure the
compiler doesn't reorder memory operations around these instructions.

There are only a couple of instructions that can function as a memory
barrier on parisc. Currently, we use the sync instruction as a memory
barrier when releasing a spinlock. However, the ldcw instruction is a
better barrier when we have a handy memory location since it operates in
the cache on coherent machines.
This patch updates the spinlock release code to use ldcw. I also
changed the "stw,ma" instructions to "stw" instructions as it is not an
adequate barrier.

The commit 1c30844d2d ("mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an
external fragmentation event occurs") breaks memory management on a
parisc c8000 workstation with this memory layout:
0) Start 0x0000000000000000 End 0x000000003fffffff Size 1024 MB
1) Start 0x0000000100000000 End 0x00000001bfdfffff Size 3070 MB
2) Start 0x0000004040000000 End 0x00000040ffffffff Size 3072 MB
With the patch 1c30844d2d, the kernel will incorrectly reclaim the
first zone when it fills up, ignoring the fact that there are two
completely free zones. Basiscally, it limits cache size to 1GiB.
The parisc kernel is currently using the DISCONTIGMEM implementation,
but isn't NUMA. Avoid this issue or strange work-arounds by switching to
the more commonly used SPARSEMEM implementation.
