[PATCH v12 1/8] mm: support madvise(MADV_FREE)

[Minchan Kim]

Linux doesn't have an ability to free pages lazy while other OS
already have been supported that named by madvise(MADV_FREE).

The gain is clear that kernel can discard freed pages rather than
swapping out or OOM if memory pressure happens.

Without memory pressure, freed pages would be reused by userspace
without another additional overhead(ex, page fault + allocation
+ zeroing).

How to work is following as.

When madvise syscall is called, VM clears dirty bit of ptes of
the range. If memory pressure happens, VM checks dirty bit of
page table and if it found still "clean", it means it's a
"lazyfree pages" so VM could discard the page instead of swapping out.
Once there was store operation for the page before VM peek a page
to reclaim, dirty bit is set so VM can swap out the page instead of
discarding.

Firstly, heavy users would be general allocators(ex, jemalloc,
tcmalloc and hope glibc supports it) and jemalloc/tcmalloc already
have supported the feature for other OS(ex, FreeBSD)

In summary, MADV_FREE is about 2 time faster than MADV_DONTNEED.

[PATCH v12 1/8] mm: support madvise(MADV_FREE)

[Minchan Kim]

Linux doesn't have an ability to free pages lazy while other OS
already have been supported that named by madvise(MADV_FREE).

The gain is clear that kernel can discard freed pages rather than
swapping out or OOM if memory pressure happens.

Without memory pressure, freed pages would be reused by userspace
without another additional overhead(ex, page fault + allocation
+ zeroing).

How to work is following as.

When madvise syscall is called, VM clears dirty bit of ptes of
the range. If memory pressure happens, VM checks dirty bit of
page table and if it found still "clean", it means it's a
"lazyfree pages" so VM could discard the page instead of swapping out.
Once there was store operation for the page before VM peek a page
to reclaim, dirty bit is set so VM can swap out the page instead of
discarding.

Firstly, heavy users would be general allocators(ex, jemalloc,
tcmalloc and hope glibc supports it) and jemalloc/tcmalloc already
have supported the feature for other OS(ex, FreeBSD)

[PATCH v12 2/8] x86: add pmd_[dirty|mkclean] for THP

[Minchan Kim]

MADV_FREE needs pmd_dirty and pmd_mkclean for detecting recent
overwrite of the contents since MADV_FREE syscall is called for
THP page.

This patch adds pmd_dirty and pmd_mkclean for THP page MADV_FREE
support.

[PATCH v12 5/8] s390: add pmd_[dirty|mkclean] for THP

[Minchan Kim]

MADV_FREE needs pmd_dirty and pmd_mkclean for detecting recent
overwrite of the contents since MADV_FREE syscall is called for
THP page but for s390 pmds only referenced bit is available
because there is no free bit left in the pmd entry for the
software dirty bit so this patch adds dumb pmd_dirty which
returns always true by suggesting by Martin.

They finally find a solution in future.

[PATCH v12 7/8] arm64: add pmd_[dirty|mkclean] for THP

[Minchan Kim]

MADV_FREE needs pmd_dirty and pmd_mkclean for detecting recent
overwrite of the contents since MADV_FREE syscall is called for
THP page.

This patch adds pmd_dirty and pmd_mkclean for THP page MADV_FREE
support.
