These are called for caching memory layout whether it is contiguous or not. So, they are always called in memory initialization. Then, hotplug could change memory layout so they should be called there, too. So, they are defined in page_alloc.c and exported only if CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG. > The i386 allnocofnig build fails in preditable ways so I fixed that up > as below, but it seems wrong. Yeah, it seems wrong to me. :) Here goes fix. ----------->8------------ >From ed6add18bc361e00a7ac6746de6eeb62109e6416 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@xxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 10 Dec 2015 17:03:54 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] mm/compaction: speed up pageblock_pfn_to_page() when zone is contiguous There is a performance drop report due to hugepage allocation and in there half of cpu time are spent on pageblock_pfn_to_page() in compaction [1]. In that workload, compaction is triggered to make hugepage but most of pageblocks are un-available for compaction due to pageblock type and skip bit so compaction usually fails. Most costly operations in this case is to find valid pageblock while scanning whole zone range. To check if pageblock is valid to compact, valid pfn within pageblock is required and we can obtain it by calling pageblock_pfn_to_page(). This function checks whether pageblock is in a single zone and return valid pfn if possible. Problem is that we need to check it every time before scanning pageblock even if we re-visit it and this turns out to be very expensive in this workload. Although we have no way to skip this pageblock check in the system where hole exists at arbitrary position, we can use cached value for zone continuity and just do pfn_to_page() in the system where hole doesn't exist. This optimization considerably speeds up in above workload. Before vs After Max: 1096 MB/s vs 1325 MB/s Min: 635 MB/s 1015 MB/s Avg: 899 MB/s 1194 MB/s Avg is improved by roughly 30% [2].
