mm: compaction: memory compaction core This patch is the core of a mechanism which compacts memory in a zone by relocating movable pages towards the end of the zone. A single compaction run involves a migration scanner and a free scanner. Both scanners operate on pageblock-sized areas in the zone. The migration scanner starts at the bottom of the zone and searches for all movable pages within each area, isolating them onto a private list called migratelist. The free scanner starts at the top of the zone and searches for suitable areas and consumes the free pages within making them available for the migration scanner. The pages isolated for migration are then migrated to the newly isolated free pages.

mm: compaction: direct compact when a high-order allocation fails Ordinarily when a high-order allocation fails, direct reclaim is entered to free pages to satisfy the allocation. With this patch, it is determined if an allocation failed due to external fragmentation instead of low memory and if so, the calling process will compact until a suitable page is freed. Compaction by moving pages in memory is considerably cheaper than paging out to disk and works where there are locked pages or no swap. If compaction fails to free a page of a suitable size, then reclaim will still occur. Direct compaction returns as soon as possible. As each block is compacted, it is checked if a suitable page has been freed and if so, it returns.

mm: compaction: add a tunable that decides when memory should be compacted and when it should be reclaimed The kernel applies some heuristics when deciding if memory should be compacted or reclaimed to satisfy a high-order allocation. One of these is based on the fragmentation. If the index is below 500, memory will not be compacted. This choice is arbitrary and not based on data. To help optimise the system and set a sensible default for this value, this patch adds a sysctl extfrag_threshold. The kernel will only compact memory if the fragmentation index is above the extfrag_threshold.

mm: migration: allow migration to operate asynchronously and avoid synchronous compaction in the faster path Migration synchronously waits for writeback if the initial passes fails. Callers of memory compaction do not necessarily want this behaviour if the caller is latency sensitive or expects that synchronous migration is not going to have a significantly better success rate. This patch adds a sync parameter to migrate_pages() allowing the caller to indicate if wait_on_page_writeback() is allowed within migration or not. For reclaim/compaction, try_to_compact_pages() is first called asynchronously, direct reclaim runs and then try_to_compact_pages() is called synchronously as there is a greater expectation that it'll succeed.

mm: compaction: Partially revert capture of suitable high-order page Eric Wong reported on 3.7 and 3.8-rc2 that ppoll() got stuck when waiting for POLLIN on a local TCP socket. It was easier to trigger if there was disk IO and dirty pages at the same time and he bisected it to commit 1fb3f8ca0e92 ("mm: compaction: capture a suitable high-order page immediately when it is made available"). The intention of that patch was to improve high-order allocations under memory pressure after changes made to reclaim in 3.6 drastically hurt THP allocations but the approach was flawed. For Eric, the problem was that page->pfmemalloc was not being cleared for captured pages leading to a poor interaction with swap-over-NFS support causing the packets to be dropped. However, I identified a few more problems with the patch including the fact that it can increase contention on zone->lock in some cases which could result in async direct compaction being aborted early. In retrospect the capture patch took the wrong approach. What it should have done is mark the pageblock being migrated as MIGRATE_ISOLATE if it was allocating for THP and avoided races that way. While the patch was showing to improve allocation success rates at the time, the benefit is marginal given the relative complexity and it should be revisited from scratch in the context of the other reclaim-related changes that have taken place since the patch was first written and tested. This patch partially reverts commit 1fb3f8ca "mm: compaction: capture a suitable high-order page immediately when it is made available".

mm: compaction: clear PG_migrate_skip based on compaction and reclaim activity Compaction caches if a pageblock was scanned and no pages were isolated so that the pageblocks can be skipped in the future to reduce scanning. This information is not cleared by the page allocator based on activity due to the impact it would have to the page allocator fast paths. Hence there is a requirement that something clear the cache or pageblocks will be skipped forever. Currently the cache is cleared if there were a number of recent allocation failures and it has not been cleared within the last 5 seconds. Time-based decisions like this are terrible as they have no relationship to VM activity and is basically a big hammer. Unfortunately, accurate heuristics would add cost to some hot paths so this patch implements a rough heuristic. There are two cases where the cache is cleared. 1. If a !kswapd process completes a compaction cycle (migrate and free scanner meet), the zone is marked compact_blockskip_flush. When kswapd goes to sleep, it will clear the cache. This is expected to be the common case where the cache is cleared. It does not really matter if kswapd happens to be asleep or going to sleep when the flag is set as it will be woken on the next allocation request. 2. If there have been multiple failures recently and compaction just finished being deferred then a process will clear the cache and start a full scan. This situation happens if there are multiple high-order allocation requests under heavy memory pressure. The clearing of the PG_migrate_skip bits and other scans is inherently racy but the race is harmless. For allocations that can fail such as THP, they will simply fail. For requests that cannot fail, they will retry the allocation. Tests indicated that scanning rates were roughly similar to when the time-based heuristic was used and the allocation success rates were similar.

mm: vmscan: reclaim order-0 and use compaction instead of lumpy reclaim Lumpy reclaim is disruptive. It reclaims a large number of pages and ignores the age of the pages it reclaims. This can incur significant stalls and potentially increase the number of major faults. Compaction has reached the point where it is considered reasonably stable (meaning it has passed a lot of testing) and is a potential candidate for displacing lumpy reclaim. This patch introduces an alternative to lumpy reclaim whe compaction is available called reclaim/compaction. The basic operation is very simple - instead of selecting a contiguous range of pages to reclaim, a number of order-0 pages are reclaimed and then compaction is later by either kswapd (compact_zone_order()) or direct compaction (__alloc_pages_direct_compact()).

mm: compaction: defer compaction using an exponential backoff when compaction fails The fragmentation index may indicate that a failure is due to external fragmentation but after a compaction run completes, it is still possible for an allocation to fail. There are two obvious reasons as to why o Page migration cannot move all pages so fragmentation remains o A suitable page may exist but watermarks are not met In the event of compaction followed by an allocation failure, this patch defers further compaction in the zone (1 << compact_defer_shift) times. If the next compaction attempt also fails, compact_defer_shift is increased up to a maximum of 6. If compaction succeeds, the defer counters are reset again. The zone that is deferred is the first zone in the zonelist - i.e. the preferred zone. To defer compaction in the other zones, the information would need to be stored in the zonelist or implemented similar to the zonelist_cache. This would impact the fast-paths and is not justified at this time.

mm: compaction: direct compact when a high-order allocation fails Ordinarily when a high-order allocation fails, direct reclaim is entered to free pages to satisfy the allocation. With this patch, it is determined if an allocation failed due to external fragmentation instead of low memory and if so, the calling process will compact until a suitable page is freed. Compaction by moving pages in memory is considerably cheaper than paging out to disk and works where there are locked pages or no swap. If compaction fails to free a page of a suitable size, then reclaim will still occur. Direct compaction returns as soon as possible. As each block is compacted, it is checked if a suitable page has been freed and if so, it returns.

mm: migration: allow migration to operate asynchronously and avoid synchronous compaction in the faster path Migration synchronously waits for writeback if the initial passes fails. Callers of memory compaction do not necessarily want this behaviour if the caller is latency sensitive or expects that synchronous migration is not going to have a significantly better success rate. This patch adds a sync parameter to migrate_pages() allowing the caller to indicate if wait_on_page_writeback() is allowed within migration or not. For reclaim/compaction, try_to_compact_pages() is first called asynchronously, direct reclaim runs and then try_to_compact_pages() is called synchronously as there is a greater expectation that it'll succeed.

mm: compaction: Partially revert capture of suitable high-order page Eric Wong reported on 3.7 and 3.8-rc2 that ppoll() got stuck when waiting for POLLIN on a local TCP socket. It was easier to trigger if there was disk IO and dirty pages at the same time and he bisected it to commit 1fb3f8ca0e92 ("mm: compaction: capture a suitable high-order page immediately when it is made available"). The intention of that patch was to improve high-order allocations under memory pressure after changes made to reclaim in 3.6 drastically hurt THP allocations but the approach was flawed. For Eric, the problem was that page->pfmemalloc was not being cleared for captured pages leading to a poor interaction with swap-over-NFS support causing the packets to be dropped. However, I identified a few more problems with the patch including the fact that it can increase contention on zone->lock in some cases which could result in async direct compaction being aborted early. In retrospect the capture patch took the wrong approach. What it should have done is mark the pageblock being migrated as MIGRATE_ISOLATE if it was allocating for THP and avoided races that way. While the patch was showing to improve allocation success rates at the time, the benefit is marginal given the relative complexity and it should be revisited from scratch in the context of the other reclaim-related changes that have taken place since the patch was first written and tested. This patch partially reverts commit 1fb3f8ca "mm: compaction: capture a suitable high-order page immediately when it is made available".

vmscan: kswapd carefully call compaction With CONFIG_COMPACTION enabled, kswapd does not try to free contiguous free pages, even when it is woken for a higher order request. This could be bad for eg. jumbo frame network allocations, which are done from interrupt context and cannot compact memory themselves. Higher than before allocation failure rates in the network receive path have been observed in kernels with compaction enabled. Teach kswapd to defragment the memory zones in a node, but only if required and compaction is not deferred in a zone.

mm: compaction: clear PG_migrate_skip based on compaction and reclaim activity Compaction caches if a pageblock was scanned and no pages were isolated so that the pageblocks can be skipped in the future to reduce scanning. This information is not cleared by the page allocator based on activity due to the impact it would have to the page allocator fast paths. Hence there is a requirement that something clear the cache or pageblocks will be skipped forever. Currently the cache is cleared if there were a number of recent allocation failures and it has not been cleared within the last 5 seconds. Time-based decisions like this are terrible as they have no relationship to VM activity and is basically a big hammer. Unfortunately, accurate heuristics would add cost to some hot paths so this patch implements a rough heuristic. There are two cases where the cache is cleared. 1. If a !kswapd process completes a compaction cycle (migrate and free scanner meet), the zone is marked compact_blockskip_flush. When kswapd goes to sleep, it will clear the cache. This is expected to be the common case where the cache is cleared. It does not really matter if kswapd happens to be asleep or going to sleep when the flag is set as it will be woken on the next allocation request. 2. If there have been multiple failures recently and compaction just finished being deferred then a process will clear the cache and start a full scan. This situation happens if there are multiple high-order allocation requests under heavy memory pressure. The clearing of the PG_migrate_skip bits and other scans is inherently racy but the race is harmless. For allocations that can fail such as THP, they will simply fail. For requests that cannot fail, they will retry the allocation. Tests indicated that scanning rates were roughly similar to when the time-based heuristic was used and the allocation success rates were similar.

mm: vmscan: reclaim order-0 and use compaction instead of lumpy reclaim Lumpy reclaim is disruptive. It reclaims a large number of pages and ignores the age of the pages it reclaims. This can incur significant stalls and potentially increase the number of major faults. Compaction has reached the point where it is considered reasonably stable (meaning it has passed a lot of testing) and is a potential candidate for displacing lumpy reclaim. This patch introduces an alternative to lumpy reclaim whe compaction is available called reclaim/compaction. The basic operation is very simple - instead of selecting a contiguous range of pages to reclaim, a number of order-0 pages are reclaimed and then compaction is later by either kswapd (compact_zone_order()) or direct compaction (__alloc_pages_direct_compact()).

mm: compaction: memory compaction core This patch is the core of a mechanism which compacts memory in a zone by relocating movable pages towards the end of the zone. A single compaction run involves a migration scanner and a free scanner. Both scanners operate on pageblock-sized areas in the zone. The migration scanner starts at the bottom of the zone and searches for all movable pages within each area, isolating them onto a private list called migratelist. The free scanner starts at the top of the zone and searches for suitable areas and consumes the free pages within making them available for the migration scanner. The pages isolated for migration are then migrated to the newly isolated free pages.
