As can be seen from the diffstat the major changes
are:
- A big conversion of the AT91 pinctrl driver and
the associated ACKed platform changes under
arch/arm/max-at91 and its device trees. This
has been coordinated with the AT91 maintainers
to go in through the pinctrl tree.
- A larger chunk of changes to the SPEAr drivers
and the addition of the "plgpio" driver for the
SPEAr as well.
- The removal of the remnants of the Nomadik driver
from the arch/arm tree and fusion of that into
the Nomadik driver and platform data header files.
- Some local movement in the Marvell MVEBU drivers,
these now have their own subdirectory.
- The addition of a chunk of code to gpiolib under
drivers/gpio to register gpio-to-pin range mappings
from the GPIO side of things. This has been
requested by Grant Likely and is now implemented,
it is particularly useful for device tree work.
Then we have incremental updates all over the place,
many of these are cleanups and fixes from Axel Lin
who has done a great job of removing minor mistakes
and compilation annoyances.

Dmitry Kravkov reported packet drops for GRE packets since GRO support
was added.
There is a race in gro_cell_poll() because we call napi_complete()
without any synchronization with a concurrent gro_cells_receive()
Once bug was triggered, we queued packets but did not schedule NAPI
poll.
We can fix this issue using the spinlock protected the napi_skbs queue,
as we have to hold it to perform skb dequeue anyway.
As we open-code skb_dequeue(), we no longer need to mask IRQS, as both
producer and consumer run under BH context.

rmap_walk_anon() and try_to_unmap_anon() appears to be too
careful about locking the anon vma: while it needs protection
against anon vma list modifications, it does not need exclusive
access to the list itself.
Transforming this exclusive lock to a read-locked rwsem removes
a global lock from the hot path of page-migration intense
threaded workloads which can cause pathological performance like

With this change applied the profile is now nicely flat
and there's no anon-vma related scheduling/blocking.
Rename anon_vma_[un]lock() => anon_vma_[un]lock_write(),
to make it clearer that it's an exclusive write-lock in
that case - suggested by Rik van Riel.

Note: This is very heavily based on a patch from Peter Zijlstra with
fixes from Ingo Molnar, Hugh Dickins and Johannes Weiner. That patch
put a lot of migration logic into mm/huge_memory.c where it does
not belong. This version puts tries to share some of the migration
logic with migrate_misplaced_page. However, it should be noted
that now migrate.c is doing more with the pagetable manipulation
than is preferred. The end result is barely recognisable so as
before, the signed-offs had to be removed but will be re-added if
the original authors are ok with it.
Add THP migration for the NUMA working set scanning fault case.
It uses the page lock to serialize. No migration pte dance is
necessary because the pte is already unmapped when we decide
to migrate.

Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de>
Due to the fact that migrations are driven by the CPU a task is running
on there is no point tracking NUMA faults until one task runs on a new
node. This patch tracks the first node used by an address space. Until
it changes, PTE scanning is disabled and no NUMA hinting faults are
trapped. This should help workloads that are short-lived, do not care
about NUMA placement or have bound themselves to a single node.
This takes advantage of the logic in "mm: sched: numa: Implement slow
start for working set sampling" to delay when the checks are made. This
will take advantage of processes that set their CPU and node bindings
early in their lifetime. It will also potentially allow any initial load
balancing to take place.
Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de>
This patch adds Kconfig options and kernel parameters to allow the
enabling and disabling of automatic NUMA balancing. The existance
of such a switch was and is very important when debugging problems
related to transparent hugepages and we should have the same for
automatic NUMA placement.
Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de>
The PTE scanning rate and fault rates are two of the biggest sources of
system CPU overhead with automatic NUMA placement. Ideally a proper policy
would detect if a workload was properly placed, schedule and adjust the
PTE scanning rate accordingly. We do not track the necessary information
to do that but we at least know if we migrated or not.
This patch scans slower if a page was not migrated as the result of a
NUMA hinting fault up to sysctl_numa_balancing_scan_period_max which is
now higher than the previous default. Once every minute it will reset
the scanner in case of phase changes.
This is hilariously crude and the numbers are arbitrary. Workloads will
converge quite slowly in comparison to what a proper policy should be able
to do. On the plus side, we will chew up less CPU for workloads that have
no need for automatic balancing.
Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de>
This patch introduces a last_nid field to the page struct. This is used
to build a two-stage filter in the next patch that is aimed at
mitigating a problem whereby pages migrate to the wrong node when
referenced by a process that was running off its home node.
Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de>
If there are a large number of NUMA hinting faults and all of them
are resulting in migrations it may indicate that memory is just
bouncing uselessly around. NUMA balancing cost is likely exceeding
any benefit from locality. Rate limit the PTE updates if the node
is migration rate-limited. As noted in the comments, this distorts

It is tricky to quantify the basic cost of automatic NUMA placement in a
meaningful manner. This patch adds some vmstats that can be used as part
of a basic costing model.
u = basic unit = sizeof(void *)
Ca = cost of struct page access = sizeof(struct page) / u
Cpte = Cost PTE access = Ca
Cupdate = Cost PTE update = (2 * Cpte) + (2 * Wlock)
where Cpte is incurred twice for a read and a write and Wlock
is a constant representing the cost of taking or releasing a
lock
Cnumahint = Cost of a minor page fault = some high constant e.g. 1000
Cpagerw = Cost to read or write a full page = Ca + PAGE_SIZE/u
Ci = Cost of page isolation = Ca + Wi
where Wi is a constant that should reflect the approximate cost
of the locking operation
Cpagecopy = Cpagerw + (Cpagerw * Wnuma) + Ci + (Ci * Wnuma)
where Wnuma is the approximate NUMA factor. 1 is local. 1.2
would imply that remote accesses are 20% more expensive
Balancing cost = Cpte * numa_pte_updates +
Cnumahint * numa_hint_faults +
Ci * numa_pages_migrated +
Cpagecopy * numa_pages_migrated
Note that numa_pages_migrated is used as a measure of how many pages
were isolated even though it would miss pages that failed to migrate. A
vmstat counter could have been added for it but the isolation cost is
pretty marginal in comparison to the overall cost so it seemed overkill.
The ideal way to measure automatic placement benefit would be to count
the number of remote accesses versus local accesses and do something like
benefit = (remote_accesses_before - remove_access_after) * Wnuma
but the information is not readily available. As a workload converges, the
expection would be that the number of remote numa hints would reduce to 0.
convergence = numa_hint_faults_local / numa_hint_faults
where this is measured for the last N number of
numa hints recorded. When the workload is fully
converged the value is 1.
This can measure if the placement policy is converging and how fast it is
doing it.

Add a 1 second delay before starting to scan the working set of
a task and starting to balance it amongst nodes.
[ note that before the constant per task WSS sampling rate patch
the initial scan would happen much later still, in effect that
patch caused this regression. ]
The theory is that short-run tasks benefit very little from NUMA
placement: they come and go, and they better stick to the node
they were started on. As tasks mature and rebalance to other CPUs
and nodes, so does their NUMA placement have to change and so
does it start to matter more and more.
In practice this change fixes an observable kbuild regression:
# [ a perf stat --null --repeat 10 test of ten bzImage builds to /dev/shm ]
!NUMA:
45.291088843 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.40% )
45.154231752 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.36% )
+NUMA, no slow start:
46.172308123 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.30% )
46.343168745 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.25% )
+NUMA, 1 sec slow start:
45.224189155 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.25% )
45.160866532 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.17% )
and it also fixes an observable perf bench (hackbench) regression:
# perf stat --null --repeat 10 perf bench sched messaging
-NUMA:
-NUMA: 0.246225691 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.31% )
+NUMA no slow start: 0.252620063 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.13% )
+NUMA 1sec delay: 0.248076230 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.35% )
The implementation is simple and straightforward, most of the patch
deals with adding the /proc/sys/kernel/numa_balancing_scan_delay_ms tunable
knob.

Previously, to probe the working set of a task, we'd use
a very simple and crude method: mark all of its address
space PROT_NONE.
That method has various (obvious) disadvantages:
- it samples the working set at dissimilar rates,
giving some tasks a sampling quality advantage
over others.
- creates performance problems for tasks with very
large working sets
- over-samples processes with large address spaces but
which only very rarely execute
Improve that method by keeping a rotating offset into the
address space that marks the current position of the scan,
and advance it by a constant rate (in a CPU cycles execution
proportional manner). If the offset reaches the last mapped
address of the mm then it then it starts over at the first
address.
The per-task nature of the working set sampling functionality in this tree
allows such constant rate, per task, execution-weight proportional sampling
of the working set, with an adaptive sampling interval/frequency that
goes from once per 100ms up to just once per 8 seconds. The current
sampling volume is 256 MB per interval.
As tasks mature and converge their working set, so does the
sampling rate slow down to just a trickle, 256 MB per 8
seconds of CPU time executed.
This, beyond being adaptive, also rate-limits rarely
executing systems and does not over-sample on overloaded
systems.
[ In AutoNUMA speak, this patch deals with the effective sampling
rate of the 'hinting page fault'. AutoNUMA's scanning is
currently rate-limited, but it is also fundamentally
single-threaded, executing in the knuma_scand kernel thread,
so the limit in AutoNUMA is global and does not scale up with
the number of CPUs, nor does it scan tasks in an execution
proportional manner.
So the idea of rate-limiting the scanning was first implemented
in the AutoNUMA tree via a global rate limit. This patch goes
beyond that by implementing an execution rate proportional
working set sampling rate that is not implemented via a single
global scanning daemon. ]
[ Dan Carpenter pointed out a possible NULL pointer dereference in the
first version of this patch. ]

path on "first touch", if the policy dictates at that time.
"Lazy Migration" will allow testing of migrate-on-fault via mbind().
Also allows applications to specify that only subsequently touched
pages be migrated to obey new policy, instead of all pages in range.
This can be useful for multi-threaded applications working on a
large shared data area that is initialized by an initial thread
resulting in all pages on one [or a few, if overflowed] nodes.
After PROT_NONE, the pages in regions assigned to the worker threads
will be automatically migrated local to the threads on 1st touch.

This patch provides a new function to test whether a page resides
on a node that is appropriate for the mempolicy for the vma and
address where the page is supposed to be mapped. This involves
looking up the node where the page belongs. So, the function
returns that node so that it may be used to allocated the page
without consulting the policy again.
A subsequent patch will call this function from the fault path.
Because of this, I don't want to go ahead and allocate the page, e.g.,
via alloc_page_vma() only to have to free it if it has the correct
policy. So, I just mimic the alloc_page_vma() node computation
logic--sort of.
Note: we could use this function to implement a MPOL_MF_STRICT
behavior when migrating pages to match mbind() mempolicy--e.g.,
to ensure that pages in an interleaved range are reinterleaved
rather than left where they are when they reside on any page in
the interleave nodemask.

This allows an application to prepare for a new phase of operation
where different regions of shared storage will be assigned to
worker threads, w/o changing policy. Note that we could just use
"default" policy in this case. However, this also allows an
application to request that pages be migrated, only if necessary,
to follow any arbitrary policy that might currently apply to a
range of pages, without knowing the policy, or without specifying
multiple mbind()s for ranges with different policies.

In order to facilitate a lazy -- fault driven -- migration of pages, create
a special transient PAGE_NUMA variant, we can then use the 'spurious'
protection faults to drive our migrations from.
The meaning of PAGE_NUMA depends on the architecture but on x86 it is
effectively PROT_NONE. Actual PROT_NONE mappings will not generate these
NUMA faults for the reason that the page fault code checks the permission on
the VMA (and will throw a segmentation fault on actual PROT_NONE mappings),
before it ever calls handle_mm_fault.

a NUMA hinting page fault will trigger. The NUMA hinting page fault
will clear the NUMA bit and set the present bit again to resolve the

Compaction already has tracepoints to count scanned and isolated pages
but it requires that ftrace be enabled and if that information has to be
written to disk then it can be disruptive. This patch adds vmstat counters
for compaction called compact_migrate_scanned, compact_free_scanned and
compact_isolated.
With these counters, it is possible to define a basic cost model for
compaction. This approximates of how much work compaction is doing and can
be compared that with an oprofile showing TLB misses and see if the cost of
compaction is being offset by THP for example. Minimally a compaction patch
can be evaluated in terms of whether it increases or decreases cost. The
basic cost model looks like this
Fundamental unit u: a word sizeof(void *)
Ca = cost of struct page access = sizeof(struct page) / u
Cmc = Cost migrate page copy = (Ca + PAGE_SIZE/u) * 2
Cmf = Cost migrate failure = Ca * 2
Ci = Cost page isolation = (Ca + Wi)
where Wi is a constant that should reflect the approximate
cost of the locking operation.
Csm = Cost migrate scanning = Ca
Csf = Cost free scanning = Ca
Overall cost = (Csm * compact_migrate_scanned) +
(Csf * compact_free_scanned) +
(Ci * compact_isolated) +
(Cmc * pgmigrate_success) +
(Cmf * pgmigrate_failed)
Where the values are read from /proc/vmstat.
This is very basic and ignores certain costs such as the allocation cost
to do a migrate page copy but any improvement to the model would still
use the same vmstat counters.

Some gate clocks have special needs which must be handled during the
disable-unused clocks sequence. These needs might be driven by software
due to the fact that we're disabling a clock outside of the normal
clk_disable path and a clk's enable_count will not be accurate. On the
other hand a specific hardware programming sequence might need to be
followed for this corner case.
This change is needed for the upcoming OMAP port to the common clock
framework. Specifically, it is undesirable to treat the disable-unused
path identically to the normal clk_disable path since other software
layers are involved. In this case OMAP's clockdomain code throws WARNs
and bails early due to the clock's enable_count being set to zero. A
custom callback mitigates this problem nicely.

really is fundamental: waking up kswapd simply isn't the right thing to
do, and direct reclaim sometimes simply _is_ the right thing to do.
When certain allocations fail, we simply should try some direct reclaim,
and if that fails, fail the allocation. That's the right thing to do
for THP allocations, which can easily fail, and the GPU allocations want
to do that too.
So starting kswapd is sometimes simply wrong, and removing the flag that
said "don't start kswapd" was a mistake. Let's hope we never revisit
