symlinks in sysfs) created symlinks from nodes to memory sections, e.g. /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135 If you're examining the memory section though and are wondering what node it might belong to, you can find it by grovelling around in sysfs, but it's a little cumbersome. Add a reverse symlink for each memory section that points back to the node to which it belongs. Signed-off-by:

corrupted for it to have been called, it does print_bad_pte() and returns ... VM_FAULT_OOM, which is hard to understand. It made some sense when I did it for 2.6.15, when do_page_fault() just killed the current process; but nowadays it lets the OOM killer decide who to kill - so page table corruption in one process would be liable to kill another. Change it to return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS instead: that doesn't guarantee that the process will be killed, but is good enough for such a rare abnormality, accompanied as it is by the "BUG: Bad page map" message. And recent HWPOISON work has copied that code into do_swap_page(), when it finds an impossible swap entry: fix that to VM_FAULT_SIGBUS too. Signed-off-by:

and CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC adds another 12 or 24 bytes to it: lockdep enables both of those, and CONFIG_LOCK_STAT adds 8 or 16 bytes to that. When 2.6.15 placed the split page table lock inside struct page (usually sized 32 or 56 bytes), only CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK was a possibility, and we ignored the enlargement (but fitted in CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK's 4 by letting the spinlock_t occupy both page->private and page->mapping). Should these debugging options be allowed to double the size of a struct page, when only one minority use of the page (as a page table) needs to fit a spinlock in there? Perhaps not. Take the easy way out: switch off SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS when DEBUG_SPINLOCK or DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is in force. I've sometimes tried to be cleverer, kmallocing a cacheline for the spinlock when it doesn't fit, but given up each time. Falling back to mm->page_table_lock (as we do when ptlock is not split) lets lockdep check out the strictest path anyway. And now that some arches allow 8192 cpus, use 999999 for infinity. (What has this got to do with KSM swapping? It doesn't care about the size of struct page, but may care about random junk in page->mapping - to be explained separately later.) Signed-off-by:

try_to_unmap_file(), which we'd prefer not to repeat for KSM swapping. Simplify it by moving it all down into try_to_unmap_one(). One thing is then lost, try_to_munlock()'s distinction between when no vma holds the page mlocked, and when a vma does mlock it, but we could not get mmap_sem to set the page flag. But its only caller takes no interest in that distinction (and is better testing SWAP_MLOCK anyway), so let's keep the code simple and return SWAP_AGAIN for both cases. try_to_unmap_file()'s TTU_MUNLOCK nonlinear handling was particularly amusing: once unravelled, it turns out to have been choosing between two different ways of doing the same nothing. Ah, no, one way was actually returning SWAP_FAIL when it meant to return SWAP_SUCCESS. Signed-off-by:

in page->mapping, with the higher bits a pointer to the anon_vma; and have defined PageKsm(page) as that with NULL anon_vma. But KSM swapping will need to store a pointer there: so in preparation for that, now define PAGE_MAPPING_FLAGS as the low two bits, including PAGE_MAPPING_KSM (always set along with PAGE_MAPPING_ANON, until some other use for the bit emerges). Declare page_rmapping(page) to return the pointer part of page->mapping, and page_anon_vma(page) to return the anon_vma pointer when that's what it is. Use these in a few appropriate places: notably, unuse_vma() has been testing page->mapping, but is better to be testing page_anon_vma() (cases may be added in which flag bits are set without any pointer).

Once the priority is higher, kswapd starts waiting on congestion. However, if the zone is below the min watermark then kswapd needs to continue working without delay as there is a danger of an increased rate of GFP_ATOMIC allocation failure. This patch changes the conditions under which kswapd waits on congestion by only going to sleep if the min watermarks are being met.

event of no IO congestion, kswapd can go to sleep very shortly after the high watermark was reached. If there are a constant stream of allocations from parallel processes, it can mean that kswapd went to sleep too quickly and the high watermark is not being maintained for sufficient length time. This patch makes kswapd go to sleep as a two-stage process. It first tries to sleep for HZ/10. If it is woken up by another process or the high watermark is no longer met, it's considered a premature sleep and kswapd continues work. Otherwise it goes fully to sleep. This adds more counters to distinguish between fast and slow breaches of watermarks. A "fast" premature sleep is one where the low watermark was hit in a very short time after kswapd going to sleep. A "slow" premature sleep indicates that the high watermark was breached after a very short interval. Signed-off-by:

that the commits 373c0a7e 8aa7e847 dramatically increased the number of GFP_ATOMIC failures that were occuring within a wireless driver. Reverting this patch seemed to help a lot even though it was pointed out that the congestion changes were very far away from high-order atomic allocations. The key to why the revert makes such a big difference is down to timing and how long direct reclaimers wait versus kswapd. With the patch reverted, the congestion_wait() is on the SYNC queue instead of the ASYNC. As a significant part of the workload involved reads, it makes sense that the SYNC list is what was truely congested and with the revert processes were waiting on congestion as expected. Hence, direct reclaimers stalled properly and kswapd was able to do its job with fewer stalls. This patch aims to fix the congestion_wait() behaviour for SYNC and ASYNC for direct reclaimers. Instead of making the congestion_wait() on the SYNC queue which would only fix a particular type of workload, this patch adds a third type of congestion_wait - BLK_RW_BOTH which first waits on the ASYNC and then the SYNC queue if the timeout has not been reached. In tests, this counter-intuitively results in kswapd stalling less and freeing up pages resulting in fewer allocation failures and fewer direct-reclaim-orientated stalls. Signed-off-by:

as a bugfix not as an ehnancement. In these days, things are changed as - alloc_pages() eats nodemask as its arguments, __alloc_pages_nodemask(). - mempolicy don't maintain its own private zonelists. (And cpuset doesn't use nodemask for __alloc_pages_nodemask()) So, current oom-killer's check function is wrong. This patch does - check nodemask, if nodemask && nodemask doesn't cover all node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY], this is CONSTRAINT_MEMORY_POLICY. - Scan all zonelist under nodemask, if it hits cpuset's wall this faiulre is from cpuset. And - modifies the caller of out_of_memory not to call oom if __GFP_THISNODE. This doesn't change "current" behavior. If callers use __GFP_THISNODE it should handle "page allocation failure" by itself. - handle __GFP_NOFAIL+__GFP_THISNODE path. This is something like a FIXME but this gfpmask is not used now.

reproduce it easily. Now, oom-killer uses mm->total_vm as its base value. But in recent applications, there are a big gap between VM size and RSS size. Because - Applications attaches much dynamic libraries. (Gnome, KDE, etc...) - Applications may alloc big VM area but use small part of them. (Java, and multi-threaded applications has this tendency because of default-size of stack.) I think using mm->total_vm as score for oom-kill is not good. By the same reason, overcommit memory can't work as expected. (In other words, if we depends on total_vm, using overcommit more positive is a good choice.) This patch uses mm->anon_rss/file_rss as base value for calculating badness. Following is changes to OOM score(badness) on an environment with 1.6G memory plus memory-eater(500M & 1G). Top 10 of badness score.

swap page is inserted into another mm (when forking finds a swap entry in place of a pte, or when reclaim unmaps a pte to insert the swap entry). swap_info_struct's vmalloc'ed swap_map is the array of these reference counts: but what happens when the unsigned short (or unsigned char since the preceding patch) is full? (and its high bit is kept for a cache flag) We then lose track of it, never freeing, leaving it in use until swapoff: at which point we _hope_ that a single pass will have found all instances, assume there are no more, and will lose user data if we're wrong. Swapping of KSM pages has not yet been enabled; but it is implemented, and makes it very easy for a user to overflow the maximum swap count: possible with ordinary process pages, but unlikely, even when pid_max has been raised from PID_MAX_DEFAULT. This patch implements swap count continuations: when the count overflows, a continuation page is allocated and linked to the original vmalloc'ed map page, and this used to hold the continuation counts for that entry and its neighbours. These continuation pages are seldom referenced: the common paths all work on the original swap_map, only referring to a continuation page when the low "digit" of a count is incremented or decremented through SWAP_MAP_MAX.

Now, the patch is not actually wrong: an existing free entry will have a good empty first_swap_extent.list; but it looks suspicious, it seems strange to initialize a field in something we're about to kfree, and I'd rather we put that initialization back to where it was in 2.6.32.

backed by slab caches that are not of large order, traditionally never greater than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. Thus, using GFP_KERNEL for these allocations on large machines when CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT > 8 will cause the page allocator to loop endlessly in the allocation attempt, each time invoking both direct reclaim or the oom killer. This is of particular interest when using NODEMASK_ALLOC() from a mempolicy context (either directly in mm/mempolicy.c or the mempolicy constrained hugetlb allocations) since the oom killer always kills current when allocations are constrained by mempolicies. So for all present use cases in the kernel, current would end up being oom killed when direct reclaim fails. That would allow the NODEMASK_ALLOC() to succeed but current would have sacrificed itself upon returning. This patch adds gfp flags to NODEMASK_ALLOC() to pass to kmalloc() on CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT > 8; this parameter is a nop on other configurations. All current use cases either directly from hugetlb code or indirectly via NODEMASK_SCRATCH() union __GFP_NORETRY to avoid direct reclaim and the oom killer when the slab allocator needs to allocate additional pages. The side-effect of this change is that all current use cases of either NODEMASK_ALLOC() or NODEMASK_SCRATCH() need appropriate -ENOMEM handling when the allocation fails (never for CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT <= 8). All current use cases were audited and do have appropriate error handling at this time. Signed-off-by:
