mm: add a basic debugging framework for memory initialisation Boot initialisation is very complex, with significant numbers of architecture-specific routines, hooks and code ordering. While significant amounts of the initialisation is architecture-independent, it trusts the data received from the architecture layer. This is a mistake, and has resulted in a number of difficult-to-diagnose bugs. This patchset adds some validation and tracing to memory initialisation. It also introduces a few basic defensive measures. The validation code can be explicitly disabled for embedded systems. This patch: Add additional debugging and verification code for memory initialisation. Once enabled, the verification checks are always run and when required additional debugging information may be outputted via a mminit_loglevel= command-line parameter. The verification code is placed in a new file mm/mm_init.c. Ideally other mm initialisation code will be moved here over time.

mm: create /sys/kernel/mm Add a kobject to create /sys/kernel/mm when sysfs is mounted. The kobject will exist regardless. This will allow for the hugepage related sysfs directories to exist under the mm "subsystem" directory. Add an ABI file appropriately.

mm: Map most files to use export.h instead of module.h The files changed within are only using the EXPORT_SYMBOL macro variants. They are not using core modular infrastructure and hence don't need module.h but only the export.h header. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

mm: tune vm_committed_as percpu_counter batching size Currently the per cpu counter's batch size for memory accounting is configured as twice the number of cpus in the system. However, for system with very large memory, it is more appropriate to make it proportional to the memory size per cpu in the system. For example, for a x86_64 system with 64 cpus and 128 GB of memory, the batch size is only 2*64 pages (0.5 MB). So any memory accounting changes of more than 0.5MB will overflow the per cpu counter into the global counter. Instead, for the new scheme, the batch size is configured to be 0.4% of the memory/cpu = 8MB (128 GB/64 /256), which is more inline with the memory size. I've done a repeated brk test of 800KB (from will-it-scale test suite) with 80 concurrent processes on a 4 socket Westmere machine with a total of 40 cores. Without the patch, about 80% of cpu is spent on spin-lock contention within the vm_committed_as counter. With the patch, there's a 73x speedup on the benchmark and the lock contention drops off almost entirely.

mm: meminit: initialise remaining struct pages in parallel with kswapd Only a subset of struct pages are initialised at the moment. When this patch is applied kswapd initialise the remaining struct pages in parallel. This should boot faster by spreading the work to multiple CPUs and initialising data that is local to the CPU. The user-visible effect on large machines is that free memory will appear to rapidly increase early in the lifetime of the system until kswapd reports that all memory is initialised in the kernel log. Once initialised there should be no other user-visibile effects.

mm: remove mm_init compilation dependency on CONFIG_DEBUG_MEMORY_INIT Towards the end of putting all core mm initialization in mm_init.c, I plan on putting the creation of a mm kobject in a function in that file. However, the file is currently only compiled if CONFIG_DEBUG_MEMORY_INIT is set. Remove this dependency, but put the code under an #ifdef on the same config option. This should result in no functional changes.

mm: init: report on last-nid information stored in page->flags Answering the question "how much space remains in the page->flags" is time-consuming. mminit_loglevel can help answer the question but it does not take last_nid information into account. This patch corrects it and while there it corrects the messages related to page flag usage, pgshifts and node/zone id. When applied the relevant output looks something like this but will depend on the kernel configuration. mminit::pageflags_layout_widths Section 0 Node 9 Zone 2 Lastnid 9 Flags 25 mminit::pageflags_layout_shifts Section 19 Node 9 Zone 2 Lastnid 9 mminit::pageflags_layout_pgshifts Section 0 Node 55 Zone 53 Lastnid 44 mminit::pageflags_layout_nodezoneid Node/Zone ID: 64 -> 53 mminit::pageflags_layout_usage location: 64 -> 44 layout 44 -> 25 unused 25 -> 0 page-flags Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

mm: add a basic debugging framework for memory initialisation Boot initialisation is very complex, with significant numbers of architecture-specific routines, hooks and code ordering. While significant amounts of the initialisation is architecture-independent, it trusts the data received from the architecture layer. This is a mistake, and has resulted in a number of difficult-to-diagnose bugs. This patchset adds some validation and tracing to memory initialisation. It also introduces a few basic defensive measures. The validation code can be explicitly disabled for embedded systems. This patch: Add additional debugging and verification code for memory initialisation. Once enabled, the verification checks are always run and when required additional debugging information may be outputted via a mminit_loglevel= command-line parameter. The verification code is placed in a new file mm/mm_init.c. Ideally other mm initialisation code will be moved here over time.

mm: remove mm_init compilation dependency on CONFIG_DEBUG_MEMORY_INIT Towards the end of putting all core mm initialization in mm_init.c, I plan on putting the creation of a mm kobject in a function in that file. However, the file is currently only compiled if CONFIG_DEBUG_MEMORY_INIT is set. Remove this dependency, but put the code under an #ifdef on the same config option. This should result in no functional changes.

mm: tune vm_committed_as percpu_counter batching size Currently the per cpu counter's batch size for memory accounting is configured as twice the number of cpus in the system. However, for system with very large memory, it is more appropriate to make it proportional to the memory size per cpu in the system. For example, for a x86_64 system with 64 cpus and 128 GB of memory, the batch size is only 2*64 pages (0.5 MB). So any memory accounting changes of more than 0.5MB will overflow the per cpu counter into the global counter. Instead, for the new scheme, the batch size is configured to be 0.4% of the memory/cpu = 8MB (128 GB/64 /256), which is more inline with the memory size. I've done a repeated brk test of 800KB (from will-it-scale test suite) with 80 concurrent processes on a 4 socket Westmere machine with a total of 40 cores. Without the patch, about 80% of cpu is spent on spin-lock contention within the vm_committed_as counter. With the patch, there's a 73x speedup on the benchmark and the lock contention drops off almost entirely.

That's too early: mm_sysfs_init() depends on core_initcall(ksysfs_init) to have made the kernel_kobj directory "kernel" in which to create "mm". Make it postcore_initcall(mm_sysfs_init). We could use core_initcall(), and depend upon Makefile link order kernel/ mm/ fs/ ipc/ security/ ... as core_initcall(debugfs_init) and core_initcall(securityfs_init) do; but better not.
