Hard to understand: perhaps: In func isolate_migratepages_block, compact_unlock_should_abort and lock_page_lruvec_irqsave are open coded to work with compact_control. > Also add a debug func in locking which may give some clues if there are > sth out of hands. > > According to Daniel Jordan's suggestion, I run 208 'dd' with on 104 > containers on a 2s * 26cores * HT box with a modefied case: > https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wfg/vm-scalability.git/tree/case-lru-file-readtwice s/modeified/modified/ lruv19 has an lkml.org link there, please substitute https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/01ed6e45-3853-dcba-61cb-b429a49a7572@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ > > With this and later patches, the readtwice performance increases > about 80% within concurrent containers. > > On a large machine with memcg enabled but not used, the page's lruvec > seeking pass a few pointers, that may lead to lru_lock holding time > increase and a bit regression. > > Hugh Dickins helped on patch polish, thanks! > > Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@xxxxxxxxx> Eh? It may have reported some locking bugs somewhere, but this is the main patch of your per-memcg lru_lock: I don't think the kernel test robot inspired your whole design, did it? Delete that. > Signed-off-by: Alex Shi <alex.shi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> I can't quite Ack this one yet, because there are several functions (mainly __munlock_pagevec and check_move_unevictable_pages) which are not right in this v18 version, and a bit tricky to correct: I already suggested what to do in other mail, but this patch comes before relock_page_lruvec, so must look different from the final result; I need to look at a later version, perhaps already there in your github tree, before I can Ack: but it's not far off.

I'll be tempted just to delete it later on (historically, bugs have tended to show up as list_debug or update_lru_size warnings); but we should certainly leave it in for now. > + > /** > * mem_cgroup_page_lruvec - return lruvec for isolating/putting an LRU page > * @page: the page > @@ -1341,6 +1354,51 @@ struct lruvec *mem_cgroup_page_lruvec(struct page *page, struct pglist_data *pgd > return lruvec; > } > > +struct lruvec *lock_page_lruvec(struct page *page) > +{ > + struct lruvec *lruvec; > + struct pglist_data *pgdat = page_pgdat(page); > + > + rcu_read_lock(); > + lruvec = mem_cgroup_page_lruvec(page, pgdat); > + spin_lock(&lruvec->lru_lock); > + rcu_read_unlock(); > + > + lruvec_memcg_debug(lruvec, page); > + > + return lruvec; > +} > + > +struct lruvec *lock_page_lruvec_irq(struct page *page) > +{ > + struct lruvec *lruvec; > + struct pglist_data *pgdat = page_pgdat(page); > + > + rcu_read_lock(); > + lruvec = mem_cgroup_page_lruvec(page, pgdat); > + spin_lock_irq(&lruvec->lru_lock); > + rcu_read_unlock(); > + > + lruvec_memcg_debug(lruvec, page); > + > + return lruvec; > +} > + > +struct lruvec *lock_page_lruvec_irqsave(struct page *page, unsigned long *flags) > +{ > + struct lruvec *lruvec; > + struct pglist_data *pgdat = page_pgdat(page); > + > + rcu_read_lock(); > + lruvec = mem_cgroup_page_lruvec(page, pgdat); > + spin_lock_irqsave(&lruvec->lru_lock, *flags); > + rcu_read_unlock(); > + > + lruvec_memcg_debug(lruvec, page); > + > + return lruvec; > +} > + > /** > * mem_cgroup_update_lru_size - account for adding or removing an lru page > * @lruvec: mem_cgroup per zone lru vector > @@ -3222,7 +3280,7 @@ void obj_cgroup_uncharge(struct obj_cgroup *objcg, size_t size) > > /* > * Because tail pages are not marked as "used", set it.

Might as well get the comment right in one place or the other, I don't mind which (get it right in this one and 23/32 need not touch mm/memcontrol.c). The reference to "used" goes back several years, to when there was a special flag to mark a page as charged: now it's just done by setting mem_cgroup, so I think the comment should just say: * Because page->mem_cgroup is not set on compound tails, set it now.

No, AlexD was right, most of these changes in move_pages_to_lru(), saving orig_lruvec, and allowing for change of lruvec from one page to the next, are not necessary, and the patch much nicer without them. All you need here is the change from pgdat to lruvec, and add a check that that lruvec really is not changing: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(mem_cgroup_page_lruvec(page, page_pgdat(page)) != lruvec, page); after the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PageLRU) at the head of the loop in this patch, which can be updated to the nicer VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!lruvec_holds_page_lru_lock(page, lruvec), page); in the next patch, where that function becomes available. It certainly used to be true that move_pages_to_lru() had to allow for lruvec to change; and that was still true at the time of my v5.3 tarball; but down the years the various reasons for it have gone away, most recently with Johannes's swapcache charging simplifications. I did see your mail to AlexD, where you showed a NULL deref you had hit in move_pages_to_lru() two months ago. I spent quite a while puzzling over that last night, but don't have an explanation, and don't know exactly what source you were built from when you hit it. I had hoped to explain it by that bug I've fixed in v5.9-rc6: 62fdb1632bcb ("ksm: reinstate memcg charge on copied pages") but did not quite succeed in explaining it that way. And you said that you haven't hit it again recently. Whatever, I don't see it as any reason for keeping the more complicated and unnecessary code in move_pages_to_lru(): if we hit such a bug again, then we investigate it. > @@ -1952,7 +1962,7 @@ static int current_may_throttle(void) > > lru_add_drain(); > > - spin_lock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock); > + spin_lock_irq(&lruvec->lru_lock); > > nr_taken = isolate_lru_pages(nr_to_scan, lruvec, &page_list, > &nr_scanned, sc, lru); > @@ -1964,7 +1974,7 @@ static int current_may_throttle(void) > __count_memcg_events(lruvec_memcg(lruvec), item, nr_scanned); > __count_vm_events(PGSCAN_ANON + file, nr_scanned); > > - spin_unlock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock); > + spin_unlock_irq(&lruvec->lru_lock); > > if (nr_taken == 0) > return 0; > @@ -1972,7 +1982,7 @@ static int current_may_throttle(void) > nr_reclaimed = shrink_page_list(&page_list, pgdat, sc, 0, > &stat, false); > > - spin_lock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock); > + spin_lock_irq(&lruvec->lru_lock); > move_pages_to_lru(lruvec, &page_list); > > __mod_node_page_state(pgdat, NR_ISOLATED_ANON + file, -nr_taken); > @@ -1981,7 +1991,7 @@ static int current_may_throttle(void) > __count_vm_events(item, nr_reclaimed); > __count_memcg_events(lruvec_memcg(lruvec), item, nr_reclaimed); > __count_vm_events(PGSTEAL_ANON + file, nr_reclaimed); > - spin_unlock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock); > + spin_unlock_irq(&lruvec->lru_lock); > > lru_note_cost(lruvec, file, stat.nr_pageout); > mem_cgroup_uncharge_list(&page_list); > @@ -2034,7 +2044,7 @@ static void shrink_active_list(unsigned long nr_to_scan, > > lru_add_drain(); > > - spin_lock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock); > + spin_lock_irq(&lruvec->lru_lock); > > nr_taken = isolate_lru_pages(nr_to_scan, lruvec, &l_hold, > &nr_scanned, sc, lru); > @@ -2045,7 +2055,7 @@ static void shrink_active_list(unsigned long nr_to_scan, > __count_vm_events(PGREFILL, nr_scanned); > __count_memcg_events(lruvec_memcg(lruvec), PGREFILL, nr_scanned); > > - spin_unlock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock); > + spin_unlock_irq(&lruvec->lru_lock); > > while (!list_empty(&l_hold)) { > cond_resched(); > @@ -2091,7 +2101,7 @@ static void shrink_active_list(unsigned long nr_to_scan, > /* > * Move pages back to the lru list. > */ > - spin_lock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock); > + spin_lock_irq(&lruvec->lru_lock); > > nr_activate = move_pages_to_lru(lruvec, &l_active); > nr_deactivate = move_pages_to_lru(lruvec, &l_inactive); > @@ -2102,7 +2112,7 @@ static void shrink_active_list(unsigned long nr_to_scan, > __count_memcg_events(lruvec_memcg(lruvec), PGDEACTIVATE, nr_deactivate); > > __mod_node_page_state(pgdat, NR_ISOLATED_ANON + file, -nr_taken); > - spin_unlock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock); > + spin_unlock_irq(&lruvec->lru_lock); > > mem_cgroup_uncharge_list(&l_active); > free_unref_page_list(&l_active); > @@ -2684,10 +2694,10 @@ static void shrink_node(pg_data_t *pgdat, struct scan_control *sc) > /* > * Determine the scan balance between anon and file LRUs. > */ > - spin_lock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock); > + spin_lock_irq(&target_lruvec->lru_lock); > sc->anon_cost = target_lruvec->anon_cost; > sc->file_cost = target_lruvec->file_cost; > - spin_unlock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock); > + spin_unlock_irq(&target_lruvec->lru_lock); > > /* > * Target desirable inactive:active list ratios for the anon > @@ -4263,24 +4273,22 @@ int node_reclaim(struct pglist_data *pgdat, gfp_t gfp_mask, unsigned int order) > */ > void check_move_unevictable_pages(struct pagevec *pvec) And as I've described elsewhere, some changes needed here, that I'll have to check in later versions before Acking this patch. > { > - struct lruvec *lruvec; > - struct pglist_data *pgdat = NULL; > + struct lruvec *lruvec = NULL; > int pgscanned = 0; > int pgrescued = 0; > int i; > > for (i = 0; i < pvec->nr; i++) { > struct page *page = pvec->pages[i]; > - struct pglist_data *pagepgdat = page_pgdat(page); > + struct lruvec *new_lruvec; > > pgscanned++; > - if (pagepgdat != pgdat) { > - if (pgdat) > - spin_unlock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock); > - pgdat = pagepgdat; > - spin_lock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock); > + new_lruvec = mem_cgroup_page_lruvec(page, page_pgdat(page)); > + if (lruvec != new_lruvec) { > + if (lruvec) > + unlock_page_lruvec_irq(lruvec); > + lruvec = lock_page_lruvec_irq(page); > } > - lruvec = mem_cgroup_page_lruvec(page, pgdat); > > if (!PageLRU(page) || !PageUnevictable(page)) > continue; > @@ -4296,10 +4304,10 @@ void check_move_unevictable_pages(struct pagevec *pvec) > } > } > > - if (pgdat) { > + if (lruvec) { > __count_vm_events(UNEVICTABLE_PGRESCUED, pgrescued); > __count_vm_events(UNEVICTABLE_PGSCANNED, pgscanned); > - spin_unlock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock); > + unlock_page_lruvec_irq(lruvec); > } > } > EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(check_move_unevictable_pages); > -- > 1.8.3.1
