Subject: [PATCH v20 16/20] mm/compaction: do page isolation first in compaction
Date: Thu, 29 Oct 2020 18:45:01 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1603968305-8026-17-git-send-email-alex.shi@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1603968305-8026-1-git-send-email-alex.shi@linux.alibaba.com>

Currently, compaction would get the lru_lock and then do page isolation
which works fine with pgdat->lru_lock, since any page isoltion would
compete for the lru_lock. If we want to change to memcg lru_lock, we
have to isolate the page before getting lru_lock, thus isoltion would
block page's memcg change which relay on page isoltion too. Then we
could safely use per memcg lru_lock later.

The new page isolation use previous introduced TestClearPageLRU() +
pgdat lru locking which will be changed to memcg lru lock later.

Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> fixed following bugs in this patch's
early version:

Fix lots of crashes under compaction load: isolate_migratepages_block()
must clean up appropriately when rejecting a page, setting PageLRU again
if it had been cleared; and a put_page() after get_page_unless_zero()
cannot safely be done while holding locked_lruvec - it may turn out to
be the final put_page(), which will take an lruvec lock when PageLRU.
And move __isolate_lru_page_prepare back after get_page_unless_zero to
make trylock_page() safe:
trylock_page() is not safe to use at this time: its setting PG_locked
can race with the page being freed or allocated ("Bad page"), and can
also erase flags being set by one of those "sole owners" of a freshly
allocated page who use non-atomic __SetPageFlag().
