mm: thp: extract split_queue_* into a struct
Patch series "Make deferred split shrinker memcg aware", v6. Currently THP deferred split shrinker is not memcg aware, this may cause premature OOM with some configuration. For example the below test would run into premature OOM easily: $ cgcreate -g memory:thp $ echo 4G > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/thp/memory/limit_in_bytes $ cgexec -g memory:thp transhuge-stress 4000 transhuge-stress comes from kernel selftest. It is easy to hit OOM, but there are still a lot THP on the deferred split queue, memcg direct reclaim can't touch them since the deferred split shrinker is not memcg aware. Convert deferred split shrinker memcg aware by introducing per memcg deferred split queue. The THP should be on either per node or per memcg deferred split queue if it belongs to a memcg. When the page is immigrated to the other memcg, it will be immigrated to the target memcg's deferred split queue too. Reuse the second tail page's deferred_list for per memcg list since the same THP can't be on multiple deferred split queues. Make deferred split shrinker not depend on memcg kmem since it is not slab. It doesn't make sense to not shrink THP even though memcg kmem is disabled. With the above change the test demonstrated above doesn't trigger OOM even though with cgroup.memory=nokmem. This patch (of 4): Put split_queue, split_queue_lock and split_queue_len into a struct in order to reduce code duplication when we convert deferred_split to memcg aware in the later patches.

mm: memcontrol: flush percpu slab vmstats on kmem offlining
I've noticed that the "slab" value in memory.stat is sometimes 0, even
if some children memory cgroups have a non-zero "slab" value. The
following investigation showed that this is the result of the kmem_cache
reparenting in combination with the per-cpu batching of slab vmstats.
At the offlining some vmstat value may leave in the percpu cache, not
being propagated upwards by the cgroup hierarchy. It means that stats
on ancestor levels are lower than actual. Later when slab pages are
released, the precise number of pages is substracted on the parent
level, making the value negative. We don't show negative values, 0 is
printed instead.
To fix this issue, let's flush percpu slab memcg and lruvec stats on
memcg offlining. This guarantees that numbers on all ancestor levels
are accurate and match the actual number of outstanding slab pages.

mm/sparsemem: add helpers track active portions of a section at boot
Prepare for hot{plug,remove} of sub-ranges of a section by tracking a
sub-section active bitmask, each bit representing a PMD_SIZE span of the
architecture's memory hotplug section size.
The implications of a partially populated section is that pfn_valid()
needs to go beyond a valid_section() check and either determine that the
section is an "early section", or read the sub-section active ranges
from the bitmask. The expectation is that the bitmask (subsection_map)
fits in the same cacheline as the valid_section() / early_section()
data, so the incremental performance overhead to pfn_valid() should be
negligible.
The rationale for using early_section() to short-ciruit the
subsection_map check is that there are legacy code paths that use
pfn_valid() at section granularity before validating the pfn against
pgdat data. So, the early_section() check allows those traditional
assumptions to persist while also permitting subsection_map to tell the
truth for purposes of populating the unused portions of early sections
with PMEM and other ZONE_DEVICE mappings.

mm/sparsemem: introduce a SECTION_IS_EARLY flag
In preparation for sub-section hotplug, track whether a given section was created during early memory initialization, or later via memory hotplug. This distinction is needed to maintain the coarse expectation that pfn_valid() returns true for any pfn within a given section even if that section has pages that are reserved from the page allocator. For example one of the of goals of subsection hotplug is to support cases where the system physical memory layout collides System RAM and PMEM within a section. Several pfn_valid() users expect to just check if a section is valid, but they are not careful to check if the given pfn is within a "System RAM" boundary and instead expect pgdat information to further validate the pfn. Rather than unwind those paths to make their pfn_valid() queries more precise a follow on patch uses the SECTION_IS_EARLY flag to maintain the traditional expectation that pfn_valid() returns true for all early sections.

mm/sparsemem: introduce struct mem_section_usage
Patch series "mm: Sub-section memory hotplug support", v10.
The memory hotplug section is an arbitrary / convenient unit for memory
hotplug. 'Section-size' units have bled into the user interface
('memblock' sysfs) and can not be changed without breaking existing
userspace. The section-size constraint, while mostly benign for typical
memory hotplug, has and continues to wreak havoc with 'device-memory'
use cases, persistent memory (pmem) in particular. Recall that pmem
uses devm_memremap_pages(), and subsequently arch_add_memory(), to
allocate a 'struct page' memmap for pmem. However, it does not use the
'bottom half' of memory hotplug, i.e. never marks pmem pages online and
never exposes the userspace memblock interface for pmem. This leaves an
opening to redress the section-size constraint.
To date, the libnvdimm subsystem has attempted to inject padding to
satisfy the internal constraints of arch_add_memory(). Beyond
complicating the code, leading to bugs [2], wasting memory, and limiting
configuration flexibility, the padding hack is broken when the platform
changes this physical memory alignment of pmem from one boot to the
next. Device failure (intermittent or permanent) and physical
reconfiguration are events that can cause the platform firmware to
change the physical placement of pmem on a subsequent boot, and device
failure is an everyday event in a data-center.
It turns out that sections are only a hard requirement of the
user-facing interface for memory hotplug and with a bit more
infrastructure sub-section arch_add_memory() support can be added for
kernel internal usages like devm_memremap_pages(). Here is an analysis
of the current design assumptions in the current code and how they are
addressed in the new implementation:
Current design assumptions:
- Sections that describe boot memory (early sections) are never
unplugged / removed.
- pfn_valid(), in the CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=y, case devolves to a
valid_section() check
- __add_pages() and helper routines assume all operations occur in
PAGES_PER_SECTION units.
- The memblock sysfs interface only comprehends full sections
New design assumptions:
- Sections are instrumented with a sub-section bitmask to track (on
x86) individual 2MB sub-divisions of a 128MB section.
- Partially populated early sections can be extended with additional
sub-sections, and those sub-sections can be removed with
arch_remove_memory(). With this in place we no longer lose usable
memory capacity to padding.
- pfn_valid() is updated to look deeper than valid_section() to also
check the active-sub-section mask. This indication is in the same
cacheline as the valid_section() so the performance impact is
expected to be negligible. So far the lkp robot has not reported any
regressions.
- Outside of the core vmemmap population routines which are replaced,
other helper routines like shrink_{zone,pgdat}_span() are updated to
handle the smaller granularity. Core memory hotplug routines that
deal with online memory are not touched.
- The existing memblock sysfs user api guarantees / assumptions are not
touched since this capability is limited to !online
!memblock-sysfs-accessible sections.
Meanwhile the issue reports continue to roll in from users that do not
understand when and how the 128MB constraint will bite them. The current
implementation relied on being able to support at least one misaligned
namespace, but that immediately falls over on any moderately complex
namespace creation attempt. Beyond the initial problem of 'System RAM'
colliding with pmem, and the unsolvable problem of physical alignment
changes, Linux is now being exposed to platforms that collide pmem ranges
with other pmem ranges by default [3]. In short, devm_memremap_pages()
has pushed the venerable section-size constraint past the breaking point,
and the simplicity of section-aligned arch_add_memory() is no longer
tenable.
These patches are exposed to the kbuild robot on a subsection-v10 branch
[4], and a preview of the unit test for this functionality is available
on the 'subsection-pending' branch of ndctl [5].

[5]: https://github.com/pmem/ndctl/commit/7c59b4867e1c
This patch (of 13):
Towards enabling memory hotplug to track partial population of a section,
introduce 'struct mem_section_usage'.
A pointer to a 'struct mem_section_usage' instance replaces the existing
pointer to a 'pageblock_flags' bitmap. Effectively it adds one more
'unsigned long' beyond the 'pageblock_flags' (usemap) allocation to house
a new 'subsection_map' bitmap. The new bitmap enables the memory
hot{plug,remove} implementation to act on incremental sub-divisions of a
section.
SUBSECTION_SHIFT is defined as global constant instead of per-architecture
value like SECTION_SIZE_BITS in order to allow cross-arch compatibility of
subsection users. Specifically a common subsection size allows for the
possibility that persistent memory namespace configurations be made
compatible across architectures.
The primary motivation for this functionality is to support platforms that
mix "System RAM" and "Persistent Memory" within a single section, or
multiple PMEM ranges with different mapping lifetimes within a single
section. The section restriction for hotplug has caused an ongoing saga
of hacks and bugs for devm_memremap_pages() users.
Beyond the fixups to teach existing paths how to retrieve the 'usemap'
from a section, and updates to usemap allocation path, there are no
expected behavior changes.

While the mm tries to defragment physical pages into huge pages this can tend to make the page allocator more predictable over time.

mm: shuffle initial free memory to improve memory-side-cache utilization
Patch series "mm: Randomize free memory", v10.
This patch (of 3):
Randomization of the page allocator improves the average utilization of
a direct-mapped memory-side-cache. Memory side caching is a platform
capability that Linux has been previously exposed to in HPC
(high-performance computing) environments on specialty platforms. In
that instance it was a smaller pool of high-bandwidth-memory relative to
higher-capacity / lower-bandwidth DRAM. Now, this capability is going
to be found on general purpose server platforms where DRAM is a cache in
front of higher latency persistent memory [1].
Robert offered an explanation of the state of the art of Linux
interactions with memory-side-caches [2], and I copy it here:
It's been a problem in the HPC space:
http://www.nersc.gov/research-and-development/knl-cache-mode-performance-coe/
A kernel module called zonesort is available to try to help:
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/xeon-phi-software
and this abandoned patch series proposed that for the kernel:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170823100205.17311-1-lukasz.daniluk@intel.com
Dan's patch series doesn't attempt to ensure buffers won't conflict, but
also reduces the chance that the buffers will. This will make performance
more consistent, albeit slower than "optimal" (which is near impossible
to attain in a general-purpose kernel). That's better than forcing
users to deploy remedies like:
"To eliminate this gradual degradation, we have added a Stream
measurement to the Node Health Check that follows each job;
nodes are rebooted whenever their measured memory bandwidth
falls below 300 GB/s."
A replacement for zonesort was merged upstream in commit

We have common pattern to access lru_lock from a page pointer: zone_lru_lock(page_zone(page)) Which is silly, because it unfolds to this: &NODE_DATA(page_to_nid(page))->node_zones[page_zonenum(page)]->zone_pgdat->lru_lock while we can simply do &NODE_DATA(page_to_nid(page))->lru_lock Remove zone_lru_lock() function, since it's only complicate things. Use 'page_pgdat(page)->lru_lock' pattern instead.

mm, compaction: be selective about what pageblocks to clear skip hints
Pageblock hints are cleared when compaction restarts or kswapd makes enough progress that it can sleep but it's over-eager in that the bit is cleared for migration sources with no LRU pages and migration targets with no free pages. As pageblock skip hint flushes are relatively rare and out-of-band with respect to kswapd, this patch makes a few more expensive checks to see if it's appropriate to even clear the bit. Every pageblock that is not cleared will avoid 512 pages being scanned unnecessarily on x86-64. The impact is variable with different workloads showing small differences in latency, success rates and scan rates. This is expected as clearing the hints is not that common but doing a small amount of work out-of-band to avoid a large amount of work in-band later is generally a good thing.

mm, page_alloc: do not wake kswapd with zone lock held
syzbot reported the following regression in the latest merge window and
it was confirmed by Qian Cai that a similar bug was visible from a
different context.
======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected

syz-executor0/8529 is trying to acquire lock:

get_page_from_freelist+0x1bae/0x52a0 mm/page_alloc.c:3491
It appears to be a false positive in that the only way the lock ordering
should be inverted is if kswapd is waking itself and the wakeup
allocates debugging objects which should already be allocated if it's
kswapd doing the waking. Nevertheless, the possibility exists and so
it's best to avoid the problem.
This patch flags a zone as needing a kswapd using the, surprisingly,
unused zone flag field. The flag is read without the lock held to do
the wakeup. It's possible that the flag setting context is not the same
as the flag clearing context or for small races to occur. However, each
race possibility is harmless and there is no visible degredation in
fragmentation treatment.
While zone->flag could have continued to be unused, there is potential
for moving some existing fields into the flags field instead.
Particularly read-mostly ones like zone->initialized and
zone->contiguous.

mm, hotplug: move init_currently_empty_zone() under zone_span_lock protection
During online_pages phase, pgdat->nr_zones will be updated in case this zone is empty. Currently the online_pages phase is protected by the global locks (device_device_hotplug_lock and mem_hotplug_lock), which ensures there is no contention during the update of nr_zones. These global locks introduces scalability issues (especially the second one), which slow down code relying on get_online_mems(). This is also a preparation for not having to rely on get_online_mems() but instead some more fine grained locks. The patch moves init_currently_empty_zone under both zone_span_writelock and pgdat_resize_lock because both the pgdat state is changed (nr_zones) and the zone's start_pfn. Also this patch changes the documentation of node_size_lock to include the protection of nr_zones.

mm, sparse: drop pgdat_resize_lock in sparse_add/remove_one_section()
pgdat_resize_lock is used to protect pgdat's memory region information
like: node_start_pfn, node_present_pages, etc. While in function
sparse_add/remove_one_section(), pgdat_resize_lock is used to protect
initialization/release of one mem_section. This looks not proper.
These code paths are currently protected by mem_hotplug_lock currently but
should there ever be any reason for locking at the sparse layer a
dedicated lock should be introduced.
Following is the current call trace of sparse_add/remove_one_section()
mem_hotplug_begin()
arch_add_memory()
add_pages()
__add_pages()
__add_section()
sparse_add_one_section()
mem_hotplug_done()
mem_hotplug_begin()
arch_remove_memory()
__remove_pages()
__remove_section()
sparse_remove_one_section()
mem_hotplug_done()
The comment above the pgdat_resize_lock also mentions "Holding this will
also guarantee that any pfn_valid() stays that way.", which is true with
the current implementation and false after this patch. But current
implementation doesn't meet this comment. There isn't any pfn walkers to
take the lock so this looks like a relict from the past. This patch also
removes this comment.

mm: check nr_initialised with PAGES_PER_SECTION directly in defer_init()
When DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is configured, only the first section of
each node's highest zone is initialized before defer stage.
static_init_pgcnt is used to store the number of pages like this:
pgdat->static_init_pgcnt = min_t(unsigned long, PAGES_PER_SECTION,
pgdat->node_spanned_pages);
because we don't want to overflow zone's range.
But this is not necessary, since defer_init() is called like this:
memmap_init_zone()
for pfn in [start_pfn, end_pfn)
defer_init(pfn, end_pfn)
In case (pgdat->node_spanned_pages < PAGES_PER_SECTION), the loop would
stop before calling defer_init().
BTW, comparing PAGES_PER_SECTION with node_spanned_pages is not correct,
since nr_initialised is zone based instead of node based. Even
node_spanned_pages is bigger than PAGES_PER_SECTION, its highest zone
would have pages less than PAGES_PER_SECTION.

mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an external fragmentation event occurs
An external fragmentation event was previously described as
When the page allocator fragments memory, it records the event using
the mm_page_alloc_extfrag event. If the fallback_order is smaller
than a pageblock order (order-9 on 64-bit x86) then it's considered
an event that will cause external fragmentation issues in the future.
The kernel reduces the probability of such events by increasing the
watermark sizes by calling set_recommended_min_free_kbytes early in the
lifetime of the system. This works reasonably well in general but if
there are enough sparsely populated pageblocks then the problem can still
occur as enough memory is free overall and kswapd stays asleep.
This patch introduces a watermark_boost_factor sysctl that allows a zone
watermark to be temporarily boosted when an external fragmentation causing
events occurs. The boosting will stall allocations that would decrease
free memory below the boosted low watermark and kswapd is woken if the
calling context allows to reclaim an amount of memory relative to the size
of the high watermark and the watermark_boost_factor until the boost is
cleared. When kswapd finishes, it wakes kcompactd at the pageblock order
to clean some of the pageblocks that may have been affected by the
fragmentation event. kswapd avoids any writeback, slab shrinkage and swap
from reclaim context during this operation to avoid excessive system
disruption in the name of fragmentation avoidance. Care is taken so that
kswapd will do normal reclaim work if the system is really low on memory.
This was evaluated using the same workloads as "mm, page_alloc: Spread
allocations across zones before introducing fragmentation".

There is a large reduction in fragmentation events with some jitter around

success rate does mean the system is under a lot of pressure. However, as
the fragmentation events are reduced, it would be expected that the
long-term allocation success rate would be higher.

mm: convert zone->managed_pages to atomic variable
totalram_pages, zone->managed_pages and totalhigh_pages updates are protected by managed_page_count_lock, but readers never care about it. Convert these variables to atomic to avoid readers potentially seeing a store tear. This patch converts zone->managed_pages. Subsequent patches will convert totalram_panges, totalhigh_pages and eventually managed_page_count_lock will be removed. Main motivation was that managed_page_count_lock handling was complicating things. It was discussed in length here, https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/995739/#1181785 So it seemes better to remove the lock and convert variables to atomic, with preventing poteintial store-to-read tearing as a bonus.

powerpc: use mm zones more sensibly
Powerpc has somewhat odd usage where ZONE_DMA is used for all memory on common 64-bit configfs, and ZONE_DMA32 is used for 31-bit schemes. Move to a scheme closer to what other architectures use (and I dare to say the intent of the system): - ZONE_DMA: optionally for memory < 31-bit (64-bit embedded only) - ZONE_NORMAL: everything addressable by the kernel - ZONE_HIGHMEM: memory > 32-bit for 32-bit kernels Also provide information on how ZONE_DMA is used by defining ARCH_ZONE_DMA_BITS. Contains various fixes from Benjamin Herrenschmidt. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> |

mm/sparse: add common helper to mark all memblocks present
Presently the arches arm64, arm and sh have a function which loops through each memblock and calls memory present. riscv will require a similar function. Introduce a common memblocks_present() function that can be used by all the arches. Subsequent patches will cleanup the arches that make use of this.

mm: workingset: tell cache transitions from workingset thrashing
Refaults happen during transitions between workingsets as well as in-place thrashing. Knowing the difference between the two has a range of applications, including measuring the impact of memory shortage on the system performance, as well as the ability to smarter balance pressure between the filesystem cache and the swap-backed workingset. During workingset transitions, inactive cache refaults and pushes out established active cache. When that active cache isn't stale, however, and also ends up refaulting, that's bonafide thrashing. Introduce a new page flag that tells on eviction whether the page has been active or not in its lifetime. This bit is then stored in the shadow entry, to classify refaults as transitioning or thrashing. How many page->flags does this leave us with on 32-bit? 20 bits are always page flags 21 if you have an MMU 23 with the zone bits for DMA, Normal, HighMem, Movable 29 with the sparsemem section bits 30 if PAE is enabled 31 with this patch. So on 32-bit PAE, that leaves 1 bit for distinguishing two NUMA nodes. If that's not enough, the system can switch to discontigmem and re-gain the 6 or 7 sparsemem section bits.

mm, sched/numa: Remove rate-limiting of automatic NUMA balancing migration
Rate limiting of page migrations due to automatic NUMA balancing was
introduced to mitigate the worst-case scenario of migrating at high
frequency due to false sharing or slowly ping-ponging between nodes.
Since then, a lot of effort was spent on correctly identifying these
pages and avoiding unnecessary migrations and the safety net may no longer
be required.
Jirka Hladky reported a regression in 4.17 due to a scheduler patch that
avoids spreading STREAM tasks wide prematurely. However, once the task
was properly placed, it delayed migrating the memory due to rate limiting.
Increasing the limit fixed the problem for him.
Currently, the limit is hard-coded and does not account for the real
capabilities of the hardware. Even if an estimate was attempted, it would
not properly account for the number of memory controllers and it could
not account for the amount of bandwidth used for normal accesses. Rather
than fudging, this patch simply eliminates the rate limiting.
However, Jirka reports that a STREAM configuration using multiple
processes achieved similar performance to 4.16. In local tests, this patch
improved performance of STREAM relative to the baseline but it is somewhat
machine-dependent. Most workloads show little or not performance difference
implying that there is not a heavily reliance on the throttling mechanism
and it is safe to remove.

mm: remove zone_id() and make use of zone_idx() in is_dev_zone()
is_dev_zone() is using zone_id() to check if the zone is ZONE_DEVICE. zone_id() looks pretty much the same as zone_idx(), and while the use of zone_idx() is quite spread in the kernel, zone_id() is only being used by is_dev_zone(). This patch removes zone_id() and makes is_dev_zone() use zone_idx() to check the zone, so we do not have two things with the same functionality around.

mm/page_alloc: don't reserve ZONE_HIGHMEM for ZONE_MOVABLE request
Freepage on ZONE_HIGHMEM doesn't work for kernel memory so it's not that important to reserve. When ZONE_MOVABLE is used, this problem would theorectically cause to decrease usable memory for GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE allocation request which is mainly used for page cache and anon page allocation. So, fix it by setting 0 to sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio[ZONE_HIGHMEM]. And, defining sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio array by MAX_NR_ZONES - 1 size makes code complex. For example, if there is highmem system, following reserve ratio is activated for *NORMAL ZONE* which would be easyily misleading people. #ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM 32 #endif This patch also fixes this situation by defining sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio array by MAX_NR_ZONES and place "#ifdef" to right place.

mm: introduce NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES
Patch series "indirectly reclaimable memory", v2. This patchset introduces the concept of indirectly reclaimable memory and applies it to fix the issue of when a big number of dentries with external names can significantly affect the MemAvailable value. This patch (of 3): Introduce a concept of indirectly reclaimable memory and adds the corresponding memory counter and /proc/vmstat item. Indirectly reclaimable memory is any sort of memory, used by the kernel (except of reclaimable slabs), which is actually reclaimable, i.e. will be released under memory pressure. The counter is in bytes, as it's not always possible to count such objects in pages. The name contains BYTES by analogy to NR_KERNEL_STACK_KB.

mm, page_alloc: wakeup kcompactd even if kswapd cannot free more memory
Kswapd will not wakeup if per-zone watermarks are not failing or if too many previous attempts at background reclaim have failed. This can be true if there is a lot of free memory available. For high- order allocations, kswapd is responsible for waking up kcompactd for background compaction. If the zone is not below its watermarks or reclaim has recently failed (lots of free memory, nothing left to reclaim), kcompactd does not get woken up. When __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is not allowed, allow kcompactd to still be woken up even if kswapd will not reclaim. This allows high-order allocations, such as thp, to still trigger background compaction even when the zone has an abundance of free memory.

mm: disable interrupts while initializing deferred pages
Vlastimil Babka reported about a window issue during which when deferred pages are initialized, and the current version of on-demand initialization is finished, allocations may fail. While this is highly unlikely scenario, since this kind of allocation request must be large, and must come from interrupt handler, we still want to cover it. We solve this by initializing deferred pages with interrupts disabled, and holding node_size_lock spin lock while pages in the node are being initialized. The on-demand deferred page initialization that comes later will use the same lock, and thus synchronize with deferred_init_memmap(). It is unlikely for threads that initialize deferred pages to be interrupted. They run soon after smp_init(), but before modules are initialized, and long before user space programs. This is why there is no adverse effect of having these threads running with interrupts disabled.

include/linux/mmzone.h: fix explanation of lower bits in the SPARSEMEM mem_map pointer
The comment is confusing. On the one hand, it refers to 32-bit alignment (struct page alignment on 32-bit platforms), but this would only guarantee that the 2 lowest bits must be zero. On the other hand, it claims that at least 3 bits are available, and 3 bits are actually used. This is not broken, because there is a stronger alignment guarantee, just less obvious. Let's fix the comment to make it clear how many bits are available and why. Although memmap arrays are allocated in various places, the resulting pointer is encoded eventually, so I am adding a BUG_ON() here to enforce at runtime that all expected bits are indeed available. I have also added a BUILD_BUG_ON to check that PFN_SECTION_SHIFT is sufficient, because this part of the calculation can be easily checked at build time.

mm/page_alloc.c: broken deferred calculation
In reset_deferred_meminit() we determine number of pages that must not
be deferred. We initialize pages for at least 2G of memory, but also
pages for reserved memory in this node.
The reserved memory is determined in this function:
memblock_reserved_memory_within(), which operates over physical
addresses, and returns size in bytes. However, reset_deferred_meminit()
assumes that that this function operates with pfns, and returns page
count.
The result is that in the best case machine boots slower than expected
due to initializing more pages than needed in single thread, and in the
worst case panics because fewer than needed pages are initialized early.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

mm/sparsemem: Allocate mem_section at runtime for CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME=y
Size of the mem_section[] array depends on the size of the physical address space. In preparation for boot-time switching between paging modes on x86-64 we need to make the allocation of mem_section[] dynamic, because otherwise we waste a lot of RAM: with CONFIG_NODE_SHIFT=10, mem_section[] size is 32kB for 4-level paging and 2MB for 5-level paging mode. The patch allocates the array on the first call to sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions(). Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

mm/memory_hotplug: change pfn_to_section_nr/section_nr_to_pfn macro to inline function
pfn_to_section_nr() and section_nr_to_pfn() are defined as macro.
pfn_to_section_nr() has no issue even if it is defined as macro. But
section_nr_to_pfn() has overflow issue if sec is defined as int.
section_nr_to_pfn() just shifts sec by PFN_SECTION_SHIFT. If sec is
defined as unsigned long, section_nr_to_pfn() returns pfn as 64 bit value.
But if sec is defined as int, section_nr_to_pfn() returns pfn as 32 bit
value.
__remove_section() calculates start_pfn using section_nr_to_pfn() and
scn_nr defined as int. So if hot-removed memory address is over 16TB,
overflow issue occurs and section_nr_to_pfn() does not calculate correct
pfn.
To make callers use proper arg, the patch changes the macros to inline
functions.
Fixes:

mm: update NUMA counter threshold size
There is significant overhead in cache bouncing caused by zone counters (NUMA associated counters) update in parallel in multi-threaded page allocation (suggested by Dave Hansen). This patch updates NUMA counter threshold to a fixed size of MAX_U16 - 2, as a small threshold greatly increases the update frequency of the global counter from local per cpu counter(suggested by Ying Huang). The rationality is that these statistics counters don't affect the kernel's decision, unlike other VM counters, so it's not a problem to use a large threshold. With this patchset, we see 31.3% drop of CPU cycles(537-->369) for per single page allocation and reclaim on Jesper's page_bench03 benchmark.

mm: change the call sites of numa statistics items
Patch series "Separate NUMA statistics from zone statistics", v2. Each page allocation updates a set of per-zone statistics with a call to zone_statistics(). As discussed in 2017 MM summit, these are a substantial source of overhead in the page allocator and are very rarely consumed. This significant overhead in cache bouncing caused by zone counters (NUMA associated counters) update in parallel in multi-threaded page allocation (pointed out by Dave Hansen). A link to the MM summit slides: http://people.netfilter.org/hawk/presentations/MM-summit2017/MM-summit2017-JesperBrouer.pdf To mitigate this overhead, this patchset separates NUMA statistics from zone statistics framework, and update NUMA counter threshold to a fixed size of MAX_U16 - 2, as a small threshold greatly increases the update frequency of the global counter from local per cpu counter (suggested by Ying Huang). The rationality is that these statistics counters don't need to be read often, unlike other VM counters, so it's not a problem to use a large threshold and make readers more expensive. With this patchset, we see 31.3% drop of CPU cycles(537-->369, see below) for per single page allocation and reclaim on Jesper's page_bench03 benchmark. Meanwhile, this patchset keeps the same style of virtual memory statistics with little end-user-visible effects (only move the numa stats to show behind zone page stats, see the first patch for details). I did an experiment of single page allocation and reclaim concurrently using Jesper's page_bench03 benchmark on a 2-Socket Broadwell-based server (88 processors with 126G memory) with different size of threshold of pcp counter.
