6.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ryan Roberts <ryan.roberts@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 00f58104202c472e487f0866fbd38832523fd4f9 ] Since the introduction of mTHP, the docuementation has stated that khugepaged would be enabled when any mTHP size is enabled, and disabled when all mTHP sizes are disabled. There are 2 problems with this; 1. this is not what was implemented by the code and 2. this is not the desirable behavior. Desirable behavior is for khugepaged to be enabled when any PMD-sized THP is enabled, anon or file. (Note that file THP is still controlled by the top-level control so we must always consider that, as well as the PMD-size mTHP control for anon). khugepaged only supports collapsing to PMD-sized THP so there is no value in enabling it when PMD-sized THP is disabled. So let's change the code and documentation to reflect this policy. Further, per-size enabled control modification events were not previously forwarded to khugepaged to give it an opportunity to start or stop. Consequently the following was resulting in khugepaged eroneously not being activated: echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-2048kB/enabled [ryan.roberts@xxxxxxx: v3] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240705102849.2479686-1-ryan.roberts@xxxxxxx Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240705102849.2479686-1-ryan.roberts@xxxxxxx Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240704091051.2411934-1-ryan.roberts@xxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Ryan Roberts <ryan.roberts@xxxxxxx> Fixes: 3485b88390b0 ("mm: thp: introduce multi-size THP sysfs interface") Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/7a0bbe69-1e3d-4263-b206-da007791a5c4@xxxxxxxxxx/ Acked-by: David Hildenbrand <david@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Barry Song <baohua@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@xxxxxxx> Cc: Lance Yang <ioworker0@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Yang Shi <shy828301@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst | 11 ++++---- include/linux/huge_mm.h | 12 -------- mm/huge_memory.c | 7 +++++ mm/khugepaged.c | 33 +++++++++++++++++----- 4 files changed, 38 insertions(+), 25 deletions(-) diff --git a/Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst b/Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst index d414d3f5592a8..1f901de208bca 100644 --- a/Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst +++ b/Documentation/admin-guide/mm/transhuge.rst @@ -202,12 +202,11 @@ PMD-mappable transparent hugepage:: cat /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hpage_pmd_size -khugepaged will be automatically started when one or more hugepage -sizes are enabled (either by directly setting "always" or "madvise", -or by setting "inherit" while the top-level enabled is set to "always" -or "madvise"), and it'll be automatically shutdown when the last -hugepage size is disabled (either by directly setting "never", or by -setting "inherit" while the top-level enabled is set to "never"). +khugepaged will be automatically started when PMD-sized THP is enabled +(either of the per-size anon control or the top-level control are set +to "always" or "madvise"), and it'll be automatically shutdown when +PMD-sized THP is disabled (when both the per-size anon control and the +top-level control are "never") Khugepaged controls ------------------- diff --git a/include/linux/huge_mm.h b/include/linux/huge_mm.h index 71945cf4c7a8d..d73c7d89d27b9 100644 --- a/include/linux/huge_mm.h +++ b/include/linux/huge_mm.h @@ -132,18 +132,6 @@ static inline bool hugepage_global_always(void) (1<<TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_FLAG);
