This continues to build on the previous feedback and further testing and
I'm hoping this can be finalised relatively soon. False sharing is still
a major problem but I still think it deserves its own series. Minimally I
think the fact that we are now scanning shared pages without much additional
system overhead is a big step in the right direction.
Changelog since V4
o Added code that avoids overloading preferred nodes
o Swap tasks if nodes are overloaded and the swap does not impair locality
Changelog since V3
o Correct detection of unset last nid/pid information
o Dropped nr_preferred_running and replaced it with Peter's load balancing
o Pass in correct node information for THP hinting faults
o Pressure tasks sharing a THP page to move towards same node
o Do not set pmd_numa if false sharing is detected
Changelog since V2
o Reshuffle to match Peter's implied preference for layout
o Reshuffle to move private/shared split towards end of series to make it
easier to evaluate the impact
o Use PID information to identify private accesses
o Set the floor for PTE scanning based on virtual address space scan rates
instead of time
o Some locking improvements
o Do not preempt pinned tasks unless they are kernel threads
Changelog since V1
o Scan pages with elevated map count (shared pages)
o Scale scan rates based on the vsz of the process so the sampling of the
task is independant of its size
o Favour moving towards nodes with more faults even if it's not the
preferred node
o Laughably basic accounting of a compute overloaded node when selecting
the preferred node.
o Applied review comments
This series integrates basic scheduler support for automatic NUMA balancing.
It borrows very heavily from Peter Ziljstra's work in "sched, numa, mm:
Add adaptive NUMA affinity support" but deviates too much to preserve
Signed-off-bys. As before, if the relevant authors are ok with it I'll
add Signed-off-bys (or add them yourselves if you pick the patches up).
This is still far from complete and there are known performance gaps
between this series and manual binding (when that is possible). As before,
the intention is not to complete the work but to incrementally improve
mainline and preserve bisectability for any bug reports that crop up. In
some cases performance may be worse unfortunately and when that happens
it will have to be judged if the system overhead is lower and if so,
is it still an acceptable direction as a stepping stone to something better.
Patch 1 adds sysctl documentation
Patch 2 tracks NUMA hinting faults per-task and per-node
Patch 3 corrects a THP NUMA hint fault accounting bug
Patch 4 avoids trying to migrate the THP zero page
Patches 5-7 selects a preferred node at the end of a PTE scan based on what
node incurrent the highest number of NUMA faults. When the balancer
is comparing two CPU it will prefer to locate tasks on their
preferred node.
Patch 8 reschedules a task when a preferred node is selected if it is not
running on that node already. This avoids waiting for the scheduler
to move the task slowly.
Patch 9 adds infrastructure to allow separate tracking of shared/private
pages but treats all faults as if they are private accesses. Laying
it out this way reduces churn later in the series when private
fault detection is introduced
Patch 10 replaces PTE scanning reset hammer and instread increases the
scanning rate when an otherwise settled task changes its
preferred node.
Patch 11 avoids some unnecessary allocation
Patch 12 sets the scan rate proportional to the size of the task being scanned.
Patch 13-14 kicks away some training wheels and scans shared pages and small VMAs.
Patch 15 introduces private fault detection based on the PID of the faulting
process and accounts for shared/private accesses differently
Patch 16 pick the least loaded CPU based on a preferred node based on a scheduling
domain common to both the source and destination NUMA node.
Patch 17 retries task migration if an earlier attempt failed
Patch 18 will swap tasks if the target node is overloaded and the swap would not
impair locality.
Testing on this is only partial as full tests take a long time to run. A
full specjbb for both single and multi takes over 4 hours. NPB D class
also takes a few hours. With all the kernels in question, it still takes
a weekend to churn through them all.
Kernel 3.9 is still the testing baseline.

It's interesting that retrying the migrate introduced such a large dent. I
do not know why at this point. Swapping the tasks helped and overall the
performance is all right with room for improvement.

The percentage of hinting faults that are local are impaired although
this is mostly due to scanning shared pages. That will need to be improved
again. Overall there are fewer PTE updates though.
Next is the autonuma benchmark results. These were only run once so I have no
idea what the variance is. Obviously they could be run multiple times but with
this number of kernels we would die of old age waiting on the results.

numa01 performance is impacted but it's an adverse workload on this
particular machine and at least the system CPu usage is lower in that
case. Otherwise the performnace looks decent although I am mindful that
the system CPU usage is higher in places.

conclusions on each testcase. However, in general the series is doing a lot
less work with PTE updates, faults and so on. THe percentage of local faults
suffers but a large part of this seems to be around where shared pages are
getting scanned.
The following is SpecJBB running on with THP enabled and one JVM running per
NUMA node in the system.

This one is more of a black eye. The average and overall performnace
is down although there is a considerable amount of noise. This workload
particularly suffers from false sharing and there is a requirement for a
follow-on series to better group related tasks together so the JVMs migrate
to individual nodes properly.

Far fewer PTEs are updated but the low percentage of local NUMA hinting faults
shows how much room there is for improvement.
So overall the series perfoms ok even though it is not a universal win that I'd
have liked. However, I think the fact that it is now dealing with shared pages,
that system overhead is generally lower and that it's now taking compute overloading
into account are all important steps in the right direction.
I'd still like to see this treated as a standalone with a separate series
focusing on false sharing detection and reduction, shared accesses used
for selecting preferred nodes, shared accesses used for load balancing and
reintroducing Peter's patch that balances compute nodes relative to each
other. This is to keep each series a manageable size for review even if
it's obvious that more work is required.

This continues to build on the previous feedback and further testing and
I'm hoping this can be finalised relatively soon. False sharing is still
a major problem but I still think it deserves its own series. Minimally I
think the fact that we are now scanning shared pages without much additional
system overhead is a big step in the right direction.
Changelog since V4
o Added code that avoids overloading preferred nodes
o Swap tasks if nodes are overloaded and the swap does not impair locality
Changelog since V3
o Correct detection of unset last nid/pid information
o Dropped nr_preferred_running and replaced it with Peter's load balancing
o Pass in correct node information for THP hinting faults
o Pressure tasks sharing a THP page to move towards same node
o Do not set pmd_numa if false sharing is detected
Changelog since V2
o Reshuffle to match Peter's implied preference for layout
o Reshuffle to move private/shared split towards end of series to make it
easier to evaluate the impact
o Use PID information to identify private accesses
o Set the floor for PTE scanning based on virtual address space scan rates
instead of time
o Some locking improvements
o Do not preempt pinned tasks unless they are kernel threads
Changelog since V1
o Scan pages with elevated map count (shared pages)
o Scale scan rates based on the vsz of the process so the sampling of the
task is independant of its size
o Favour moving towards nodes with more faults even if it's not the
preferred node
o Laughably basic accounting of a compute overloaded node when selecting
the preferred node.
o Applied review comments
This series integrates basic scheduler support for automatic NUMA balancing.
It borrows very heavily from Peter Ziljstra's work in "sched, numa, mm:
Add adaptive NUMA affinity support" but deviates too much to preserve
Signed-off-bys. As before, if the relevant authors are ok with it I'll
add Signed-off-bys (or add them yourselves if you pick the patches up).
This is still far from complete and there are known performance gaps
between this series and manual binding (when that is possible). As before,
the intention is not to complete the work but to incrementally improve
mainline and preserve bisectability for any bug reports that crop up. In
some cases performance may be worse unfortunately and when that happens
it will have to be judged if the system overhead is lower and if so,
is it still an acceptable direction as a stepping stone to something better.
Patch 1 adds sysctl documentation
Patch 2 tracks NUMA hinting faults per-task and per-node
Patch 3 corrects a THP NUMA hint fault accounting bug
Patch 4 avoids trying to migrate the THP zero page
Patches 5-7 selects a preferred node at the end of a PTE scan based on what
node incurrent the highest number of NUMA faults. When the balancer
is comparing two CPU it will prefer to locate tasks on their
preferred node.
Patch 8 reschedules a task when a preferred node is selected if it is not
running on that node already. This avoids waiting for the scheduler
to move the task slowly.
Patch 9 adds infrastructure to allow separate tracking of shared/private
pages but treats all faults as if they are private accesses. Laying
it out this way reduces churn later in the series when private
fault detection is introduced
Patch 10 replaces PTE scanning reset hammer and instread increases the
scanning rate when an otherwise settled task changes its
preferred node.
Patch 11 avoids some unnecessary allocation
Patch 12 sets the scan rate proportional to the size of the task being scanned.
Patch 13-14 kicks away some training wheels and scans shared pages and small VMAs.
Patch 15 introduces private fault detection based on the PID of the faulting
process and accounts for shared/private accesses differently
Patch 16 pick the least loaded CPU based on a preferred node based on a scheduling
domain common to both the source and destination NUMA node.
Patch 17 retries task migration if an earlier attempt failed
Patch 18 will swap tasks if the target node is overloaded and the swap would not
impair locality.
Testing on this is only partial as full tests take a long time to run. A
full specjbb for both single and multi takes over 4 hours. NPB D class
also takes a few hours. With all the kernels in question, it still takes
a weekend to churn through them all.
Kernel 3.9 is still the testing baseline.

It's interesting that retrying the migrate introduced such a large dent. I
do not know why at this point. Swapping the tasks helped and overall the
performance is all right with room for improvement.

The percentage of hinting faults that are local are impaired although
this is mostly due to scanning shared pages. That will need to be improved
again. Overall there are fewer PTE updates though.
Next is the autonuma benchmark results. These were only run once so I have no
idea what the variance is. Obviously they could be run multiple times but with
this number of kernels we would die of old age waiting on the results.

numa01 performance is impacted but it's an adverse workload on this
particular machine and at least the system CPu usage is lower in that
case. Otherwise the performnace looks decent although I am mindful that
the system CPU usage is higher in places.

conclusions on each testcase. However, in general the series is doing a lot
less work with PTE updates, faults and so on. THe percentage of local faults
suffers but a large part of this seems to be around where shared pages are
getting scanned.

This one is more of a black eye. The average and overall performnace
is down although there is a considerable amount of noise. This workload
particularly suffers from false sharing and there is a requirement for a
follow-on series to better group related tasks together so the JVMs migrate
to individual nodes properly.

Far fewer PTEs are updated but the low percentage of local NUMA hinting faults
shows how much room there is for improvement.
So overall the series perfoms ok even though it is not a universal win that I'd
have liked. However, I think the fact that it is now dealing with shared pages,
that system overhead is generally lower and that it's now taking compute overloading
into account are all important steps in the right direction.
I'd still like to see this treated as a standalone with a separate series
focusing on false sharing detection and reduction, shared accesses used
for selecting preferred nodes, shared accesses used for load balancing and
reintroducing Peter's patch that balances compute nodes relative to each
other. This is to keep each series a manageable size for review even if
it's obvious that more work is required.

This patch tracks what nodes numa hinting faults were incurred on. Greater
weight is given if the pages were to be migrated on the understanding
that such faults cost significantly more. If a task has paid the cost to
migrating data to that node then in the future it would be preferred if the
task did not migrate the data again unnecessarily. This information is later
used to schedule a task on the node incurring the most NUMA hinting faults.

THP NUMA hinting fault on pages that are not migrated are being
accounted for incorrectly. Currently the fault will be counted as if the
task was running on a node local to the page which is not necessarily
true.

The zero page is not replicated between nodes and is often shared
between processes. The data is read-only and likely to be cached in
local CPUs if heavily accessed meaning that the remote memory access
cost is less of a concern. This patch stops accounting for numa hinting
faults on the zero page in both terms of counting faults and scheduling
tasks on nodes.

* [PATCH 06/18] sched: Update NUMA hinting faults once per scan

NUMA hinting faults counts and placement decisions are both recorded in the
same array which distorts the samples in an unpredictable fashion. The values
linearly accumulate during the scan and then decay creating a sawtooth-like
pattern in the per-node counts. It also means that placement decisions are
time sensitive. At best it means that it is very difficult to state that
the buffer holds a decaying average of past faulting behaviour. At worst,
it can confuse the load balancer if it sees one node with an artifically high
count due to very recent faulting activity and may create a bouncing effect.
This patch adds a second array. numa_faults stores the historical data
which is used for placement decisions. numa_faults_buffer holds the
fault activity during the current scan window. When the scan completes,
numa_faults decays and the values from numa_faults_buffer are copied
across.

This patch favours moving tasks towards the preferred NUMA node when it
has just been selected. Ideally this is self-reinforcing as the longer
the task runs on that node, the more faults it should incur causing
task_numa_placement to keep the task running on that node. In reality a
big weakness is that the nodes CPUs can be overloaded and it would be more
efficient to queue tasks on an idle node and migrate to the new node. This
would require additional smarts in the balancer so for now the balancer
will simply prefer to place the task on the preferred node for a PTE scans
which is controlled by the numa_balancing_settle_count sysctl. Once the
settle_count number of scans has complete the schedule is free to place
the task on an alternative node if the load is imbalanced.

A preferred node is selected based on the node the most NUMA hinting
faults was incurred on. There is no guarantee that the task is running
on that node at the time so this patch rescheules the task to run on
the most idle CPU of the selected node when selected. This avoids
waiting for the balancer to make a decision.

Ideally it would be possible to distinguish between NUMA hinting faults
that are private to a task and those that are shared. This patch prepares
infrastructure for separately accounting shared and private faults by
allocating the necessary buffers and passing in relevant information. For
now, all faults are treated as private and detection will be introduced
later.

* [PATCH 10/18] sched: Increase NUMA PTE scanning when a new preferred node is selected

The NUMA PTE scan is reset every sysctl_numa_balancing_scan_period_reset
in case of phase changes. This is crude and it is clearly visible in graphs
when the PTE scanner resets even if the workload is already balanced. This
patch increases the scan rate if the preferred node is updated and the
task is currently running on the node to recheck if the placement
decision is correct. In the optimistic expectation that the placement
decisions will be correct, the maximum period between scans is also
increased to reduce overhead due to automatic NUMA balancing.

task_numa_placement checks current->mm but after buffers for faults
have already been uselessly allocated. Move the check earlier.

* [PATCH 12/18] sched: Set the scan rate proportional to the size of the task being scanned

The NUMA PTE scan rate is controlled with a combination of the
numa_balancing_scan_period_min, numa_balancing_scan_period_max and
numa_balancing_scan_size. This scan rate is independent of the size
of the task and as an aside it is further complicated by the fact that
numa_balancing_scan_size controls how many pages are marked pte_numa and
not how much virtual memory is scanned.
In combination, it is almost impossible to meaningfully tune the min and
max scan periods and reasoning about performance is complex when the time
to complete a full scan is is partially a function of the tasks memory
size. This patch alters the semantic of the min and max tunables to be
about tuning the length time it takes to complete a scan of a tasks virtual
address space. Conceptually this is a lot easier to understand. There is a
"sanity" check to ensure the scan rate is never extremely fast based on the
amount of virtual memory that should be scanned in a second. The default
of 2.5G seems arbitrary but it is to have the maximum scan rate after the
patch roughly match the maximum scan rate before the patch was applied.

Currently automatic NUMA balancing is unable to distinguish between false
shared versus private pages except by ignoring pages with an elevated
page_mapcount entirely. This avoids shared pages bouncing between the
nodes whose task is using them but that is ignored quite a lot of data.
This patch kicks away the training wheels in preparation for adding support
for identifying shared/private pages is now in place. The ordering is so
that the impact of the shared/private detection can be easily measured. Note
that the patch does not migrate shared, file-backed within vmas marked
VM_EXEC as these are generally shared library pages. Migrating such pages
is not beneficial as there is an expectation they are read-shared between
caches and iTLB and iCache pressure is generally low.

* [PATCH 13/18] mm: numa: Scan pages with elevated page_mapcount

Currently automatic NUMA balancing is unable to distinguish between false
shared versus private pages except by ignoring pages with an elevated
page_mapcount entirely. This avoids shared pages bouncing between the
nodes whose task is using them but that is ignored quite a lot of data.
This patch kicks away the training wheels in preparation for adding support
for identifying shared/private pages is now in place. The ordering is so
that the impact of the shared/private detection can be easily measured. Note
that the patch does not migrate shared, file-backed within vmas marked
VM_EXEC as these are generally shared library pages. Migrating such pages
is not beneficial as there is an expectation they are read-shared between
caches and iTLB and iCache pressure is generally low.

task_numa_work skips small VMAs. At the time the logic was to reduce the
scanning overhead which was considerable. It is a dubious hack at best.
It would make much more sense to cache where faults have been observed
and only rescan those regions during subsequent PTE scans. Remove this
hack as motivation to do it properly in the future.

* [PATCH 15/18] sched: Set preferred NUMA node based on number of private faults
2013-07-15 15:20 ` Mel Gorman

Ideally it would be possible to distinguish between NUMA hinting faults that
are private to a task and those that are shared. If treated identically
there is a risk that shared pages bounce between nodes depending on
the order they are referenced by tasks. Ultimately what is desirable is
that task private pages remain local to the task while shared pages are
interleaved between sharing tasks running on different nodes to give good
average performance. This is further complicated by THP as even
applications that partition their data may not be partitioning on a huge
page boundary.
To start with, this patch assumes that multi-threaded or multi-process
applications partition their data and that in general the private accesses
are more important for cpu->memory locality in the general case. Also,
no new infrastructure is required to treat private pages properly but
interleaving for shared pages requires additional infrastructure.
To detect private accesses the pid of the last accessing task is required
but the storage requirements are a high. This patch borrows heavily from
Ingo Molnar's patch "numa, mm, sched: Implement last-CPU+PID hash tracking"
to encode some bits from the last accessing task in the page flags as
well as the node information. Collisions will occur but it is better than
just depending on the node information. Node information is then used to
determine if a page needs to migrate. The PID information is used to detect
private/shared accesses. The preferred NUMA node is selected based on where
the maximum number of approximately private faults were measured. Shared
faults are not taken into consideration for a few reasons.
First, if there are many tasks sharing the page then they'll all move
towards the same node. The node will be compute overloaded and then
scheduled away later only to bounce back again. Alternatively the shared
tasks would just bounce around nodes because the fault information is
effectively noise. Either way accounting for shared faults the same as
private faults can result in lower performance overall.
The second reason is based on a hypothetical workload that has a small
number of very important, heavily accessed private pages but a large shared
array. The shared array would dominate the number of faults and be selected
as a preferred node even though it's the wrong decision.
The third reason is that multiple threads in a process will race each
other to fault the shared page making the fault information unreliable.

Ideally it would be possible to distinguish between NUMA hinting faults that
are private to a task and those that are shared. If treated identically
there is a risk that shared pages bounce between nodes depending on
the order they are referenced by tasks. Ultimately what is desirable is
that task private pages remain local to the task while shared pages are
interleaved between sharing tasks running on different nodes to give good
average performance. This is further complicated by THP as even
applications that partition their data may not be partitioning on a huge
page boundary.
To start with, this patch assumes that multi-threaded or multi-process
applications partition their data and that in general the private accesses
are more important for cpu->memory locality in the general case. Also,
no new infrastructure is required to treat private pages properly but
interleaving for shared pages requires additional infrastructure.
To detect private accesses the pid of the last accessing task is required
but the storage requirements are a high. This patch borrows heavily from
Ingo Molnar's patch "numa, mm, sched: Implement last-CPU+PID hash tracking"
to encode some bits from the last accessing task in the page flags as
well as the node information. Collisions will occur but it is better than
just depending on the node information. Node information is then used to
determine if a page needs to migrate. The PID information is used to detect
private/shared accesses. The preferred NUMA node is selected based on where
the maximum number of approximately private faults were measured. Shared
faults are not taken into consideration for a few reasons.
First, if there are many tasks sharing the page then they'll all move
towards the same node. The node will be compute overloaded and then
scheduled away later only to bounce back again. Alternatively the shared
tasks would just bounce around nodes because the fault information is
effectively noise. Either way accounting for shared faults the same as
private faults can result in lower performance overall.
The second reason is based on a hypothetical workload that has a small
number of very important, heavily accessed private pages but a large shared
array. The shared array would dominate the number of faults and be selected
as a preferred node even though it's the wrong decision.
The third reason is that multiple threads in a process will race each
other to fault the shared page making the fault information unreliable.

* [PATCH 16/18] sched: Avoid overloading CPUs on a preferred NUMA node
2013-07-15 15:20 ` Mel Gorman

Mel Gorman
This patch replaces find_idlest_cpu_node with task_numa_find_cpu.
find_idlest_cpu_node has two critical limitations. It does not take the
scheduling class into account when calculating the load and it is unsuitable
for using when comparing loads between NUMA nodes.
task_numa_find_cpu uses similar load calculations to wake_affine() when
selecting the least loaded CPU within a scheduling domain common to the
source and destimation nodes. It avoids causing CPU load imbalances in
the machine by refusing to migrate if the relative load on the target
CPU is higher than the source CPU.

* [PATCH 16/18] sched: Avoid overloading CPUs on a preferred NUMA node

This patch replaces find_idlest_cpu_node with task_numa_find_cpu.
find_idlest_cpu_node has two critical limitations. It does not take the
scheduling class into account when calculating the load and it is unsuitable
for using when comparing loads between NUMA nodes.
task_numa_find_cpu uses similar load calculations to wake_affine() when
selecting the least loaded CPU within a scheduling domain common to the
source and destimation nodes. It avoids causing CPU load imbalances in
the machine by refusing to migrate if the relative load on the target
CPU is higher than the source CPU.

When a preferred node is selected for a tasks there is an attempt to migrate
the task to a CPU there. This may fail in which case the task will only
migrate if the active load balancer takes action. This may never happen if
the conditions are not right. This patch will check at NUMA hinting fault
time if another attempt should be made to migrate the task. It will only
make an attempt once every five seconds.

The scheduler avoids adding load imbalance when scheduling a task on its
preferred node. This unfortunately can mean that a task continues access
remote memory. In the event the CPUs are relatively imbalanced this
patch will check if the task running on the target CPU can be swapped
with. An attempt will be made to swap with the task if it is not running
on its preferred node and that moving it would not impair its locality.

So I know this is very much like what Ingo did in his patches, but
there's a whole heap of 'problems' with this approach to task flipping.
So at (1) we just moved ourselves to the remote cpu. This might have
left our original cpu idle and we might have done a newidle balance,
even though we intend another task to run here.
At (1) we just moved ourselves to the remote cpu, however we might not
be eligible to run, so moving the other task to our original CPU might
take a while -- exacerbating the previously mention issue.
Since (1) might take a whole lot of time, it might become rather
unlikely that our task @swap_p is still queued on the cpu where we
expected him to be.

I think it means that our direct migration scheme is creating too much
imbalance and doing it more often results in more task movement to fix
it up again, hindering page migration efforts to settle on a node.

Yes, it performed worse in tests. Looking at it, I figured that it would
have to perform worse unless effective_load regularly returns negative
values.

True. Minimally a parallel numa hinting fault that selected the source
nid as preferred nid might make the idle_cpu check and move there immediately

Also true.

Which would hurt the intentions of patch 17.
hmm.
I did not want to do this lazily via the active load balancer because it
might never happen or by the time it did happen that it's no longer the
correct decision. This applied whether I set numa_preferred_nid or added
a numa_preferred_cpu.
What I think I can do is set a preferred CPU, wait until the next
wakeup and then move the task during select_task_rq as long as the load
balance permits. I cannot test it right now as all my test machines are
unplugged as part of a move but the patch against patch 17 is below.
Once p->numa_preferred_cpu exists then I should be able to lazily swap tasks
by setting p->numa_preferred_cpu.
Obviously untested and I need to give it more thought but this is the
general idea of what I mean.

True. Minimally a parallel numa hinting fault that selected the source
nid as preferred nid might make the idle_cpu check and move there immediately

Which would hurt the intentions of patch 17.
hmm.
I did not want to do this lazily via the active load balancer because it
might never happen or by the time it did happen that it's no longer the
correct decision. This applied whether I set numa_preferred_nid or added
a numa_preferred_cpu.
What I think I can do is set a preferred CPU, wait until the next
wakeup and then move the task during select_task_rq as long as the load
balance permits. I cannot test it right now as all my test machines are
unplugged as part of a move but the patch against patch 17 is below.
Once p->numa_preferred_cpu exists then I should be able to lazily swap tasks
by setting p->numa_preferred_cpu.
Obviously untested and I need to give it more thought but this is the
general idea of what I mean.

In this case it would return negative, seeing as we put a negative in.

Hi Hillf,

I think the essential point is which node NUMA hinting faults counts should
be accumulated to when thp pages are not migrated. Counts are accounted as
local numa hinting fault before this patch, it's not always true and there's
bad influence when determine the preferred node with the most numa hinting
faults.

Your patch 15 breaks the compile with !CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING.
This little patch fixes it:
The code in change_pte_range unconditionally calls nidpid_to_pid,
even when CONFIG_NUMA_SCHED is disabled. Returning -1 keeps the
value of last_nid at "don't care" and should result in the mprotect
code doing nothing NUMA-related when CONFIG_NUMA_SCHED is disabled.

Subject: stop_machine: Introduce stop_two_cpus()
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Date: Sun Jul 21 12:24:09 CEST 2013
Introduce stop_two_cpus() in order to allow controlled swapping of two
tasks. It repurposes the stop_machine() state machine but only stops
the two cpus which we can do with on-stack structures and avoid
machine wide synchronization issues.

Subject: sched: Introduce migrate_swap()
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Date: Sun Jul 21 12:30:54 CEST 2013
Use the new stop_two_cpus() to implement migrate_swap(), a function
that flips two tasks between their respective cpus.
I'm fairly sure there's a less crude way than employing the
stop_two_cpus() method, but everything I tried either got horribly
fragile and/or complex. So keep it simple for now.
The notable detail is how we 'migrate' tasks that aren't runnable
anymore. We'll make it appear like we migrated them before they went
to sleep. The sole difference is the previous cpu in the wakeup path,
so we override this.
TODO: I'm fairly sure we can get rid of the wake_cpu != -1 test by
keeping wake_cpu to the actual task cpu; just couldn't be bothered to
think through all the cases.

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Date: Tue Jul 23 14:58:41 CEST 2013
This patch is mostly a comment in code. I don't believe the current
scan period adjustment scheme can work properly nor do I think it a
good idea to ratelimit the numa faults as a whole based on migration.
Reasons are in the modified comments...

There are three callers of task_numa_fault():
- do_huge_pmd_numa_page():
Accounts against the current node, not the node where the
page resides, unless we migrated, in which case it accounts
against the node we migrated to.
- do_numa_page():
Accounts against the current node, not the node where the
page resides, unless we migrated, in which case it accounts
against the node we migrated to.
- do_pmd_numa_page():
Accounts not at all when the page isn't migrated, otherwise
accounts against the node we migrated towards.
This seems wrong to me; all three sites should have the same
sementaics, furthermore we should accounts against where the page
really is, we already know where the task is.
So modify all three sites to always account; we did after all receive
the fault; and always account to where the page is after migration,
regardless of success.
They all still differ on when they clear the PTE/PMD; ideally that
would get sorted too.

It just makes heaps of sense; so add it and make both it and
migrate_improve_locality() a sched_feat().

With a trace_printk("working\n"); right after the cmpxchg in
task_numa_work() we can see that of a 4 thread process, its always the
same task winning the race and doing the protection change.
This is a problem since the task doing the protection change has a
penalty for taking faults -- it is busy when marking the PTEs. If its
always the same task the ->numa_faults[] get severely skewed.
Avoid this by delaying the task doing the protection change such that
it is unlikely to win the privilege again.

At this point I would've expected something like:
int nidpid = page_nidpid_last(page);
int thisnid = nidpid_to_nid(nidpid);
int thispid = nidpit_to_pid(nidpit);
It seems 'weird' to mix the state like you did; is there a reason the
above is incorrect?

Hurmph I just stumbled upon this PMD 'trick' and I'm not at all sure I
like it. If an application would pre-fault/initialize its memory with
the main thread we'll collapse it into a PMDs and forever thereafter (by
virtue of do_pmd_numa_page()) they'll all stay the same. Resulting in
PMD granularity.
It seems possible that concurrent faults can break it up, but the window
is tiny so I don't expect to actually see that happening.
In any case, this thing needs comments; both here in mprotect and near
do_pmu_numa_page().

At this point I would've expected something like:
int nidpid = page_nidpid_last(page);
int thisnid = nidpid_to_nid(nidpid);
int thispid = nidpit_to_pid(nidpit);
It seems 'weird' to mix the state like you did; is there a reason the
above is incorrect?

Hurmph I just stumbled upon this PMD 'trick' and I'm not at all sure I
like it. If an application would pre-fault/initialize its memory with
the main thread we'll collapse it into a PMDs and forever thereafter (by
virtue of do_pmd_numa_page()) they'll all stay the same. Resulting in
PMD granularity.
It seems possible that concurrent faults can break it up, but the window
is tiny so I don't expect to actually see that happening.
In any case, this thing needs comments; both here in mprotect and near
do_pmu_numa_page().

Subject: mm, numa: Change page last {nid,pid} into {cpu,pid}
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Date: Thu Jul 25 18:44:50 CEST 2013
Change the per page last fault tracking to use cpu,pid instead of
nid,pid. This will allow us to try and lookup the alternate task more
easily.

Subject: mm, numa: Change page last {nid,pid} into {cpu,pid}
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Date: Thu Jul 25 18:44:50 CEST 2013
Change the per page last fault tracking to use cpu,pid instead of
nid,pid. This will allow us to try and lookup the alternate task more
easily.

Subject: sched, numa: Use {cpu, pid} to create task groups for shared faults
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Date: Tue Jul 30 10:40:20 CEST 2013
A very simple/straight forward shared fault task grouping
implementation.
Concerns are that grouping on a single shared fault might be too
aggressive -- this only works because Mel is excluding DSOs for faults,
otherwise we'd have the world in a single group.
Future work could explore more complex means of picking groups. We
could for example track one group for the entire scan (using something
like PDM) and join it at the end of the scan if we deem it shared a
sufficient amount of memory.
Another avenue to explore is that to do with tasks where private faults
are predominant. Should we exclude them from the group or treat them as
secondary, creating a graded group that tries hardest to collate shared
tasks but also tries to move private tasks near when possible.
Also, the grouping information is completely unused, its up to future
patches to do this.

Unfortunately, I am not seeing any improvement for situations where there
are more than one multi-threaded processes running. These would be one or
more processes per node, like a multi-JVM JBB test. Or a
multi-virtual-machine test (in my case running dbench).
One of the concerns I have is that the way numa_preferred_node decision is
made. What I am seeing is that when I run workloads as described above,
which threads of same process are likely to have accesses to same memory
areas, those threads are not grouped together and given a common preferred
node. What happens is that the threads get different numa_preferred_nid
values, and they continue to access the same pool of memory, and just bounce
the memory back and forth.
I added a few stats to show the problem:
faults(K) is the total fault count and not decayed
aged_faults are the decayed, per node faults
switches is the number of times the preferred_nid changed
The data below is for 1 of 4 active Qemu(KVM VM) with 20 vCPUs each. The
host is a 4 socket, 40 core, 80 thread westmere-EX. Ideally each of the VMs
would be run in just one NUMA node. This data was collected after dbench
was running for 5 minutes). Notice that the tasks from a single VM are
spread across all nodes.

I think we need to establish some sort of "attracting" and "opposing" forces
when deciding to choose a numa_perferred_nid. Even if tasks of a same
process are not necessarily sharing memory accesses at the same time, it
might be beneficial to give them more "closeness" than say, a task from a
different process which has zero chance of having common accesses (no actual
shared memory between them).
One more thing regarding the common preferred_nid: this does not have to
restrict us to just one preferred_nid for each process. We certainly have
some situations where a multi-threaded process is so big that it spans the
entire system (single-JVM JBB). In that case we can try to identify
multiple thread groups within that process, and each can have a different
preferred_nid. Might even discover that the number of thread-groups =
number of threads (complete isolation in memory access pattern between the
threads).
Here's the stats patch (I am sending this via gmane, so this patch might get
garbled):

Ok. I'll be splitting this patch and merging part of it into "sched:
Favour moving tasks towards the preferred node" and keeping the
degrades_locality as a separate patch. I'm also not a fan of the
tunables names NUMA_FAULTS_UP and NUMA_FAULTS_DOWN because it is hard to
guess what they mean. NUMA_FAVOUR_HIGHER, NUMA_RESIST_LOWER?
Change to just the parent patch looks is as follows. task_faults() is
not introduced yet in the series which is why it is still missing.

To weight the fault heavier if the page was migrated due to being

Two tasks may be operating on a shared buffer that is not aligned. It is
expected that will at least cache align to avoid CPU cache line bouncing
but the buffers are not necessarily page aligned. A page is the minimum
granularity we can track NUMA hinting faults so two tasks sharing
such a page will appear to be sharing data when in fact they are not.

Two tasks may be operating on a shared buffer that is not aligned. It is
expected that will at least cache align to avoid CPU cache line bouncing
but the buffers are not necessarily page aligned. A page is the minimum
granularity we can track NUMA hinting faults so two tasks sharing
such a page will appear to be sharing data when in fact they are not.

Potentially yes. When that PMD trick was introduced it was because the cost
of faults was very high due to a high scanning rate. The trick mitigated
worse-case scenarios until faults were properly accounted for and the scan
rates were better controlled. As these *should* be addressed by the series
I think I will be adding a patch to kick away this PMD crutch and see how
it looks in profiles.

I've been thinking on this a bit and I think we should split these and
thp pages when we get shared faults from different nodes on them and
refuse thp collapses when the pages are on different nodes.
With the exception that when we introduce the interleave mempolicies we
should define 'different node' as being outside of the interleave mask.

But still we could check if the task is allowed to run on a cpu before we
capture the load of the cpu. This would avoid us trying to select a cpu
whose load is low but which cannot run this task.

Understood. I'll disable CONFIG_CGROUPS in the next round of testing which

Clever! I did not spot any problems so will be pulling this (and
presumably the next patch) into the series. Thanks!

Agreed, I reached the same conclusion when thinking about THP false sharing
just before I went on holiday. The first prototype patch was a bit messy
and performed very badly so "Handle false sharing of THP" was chucked onto
the TODO pile to worry about when I got back. It also collided a little with
the PMD handling of base pages which is another reason to get rid of that.

I'm not sure I understand your point. The scan rate is decreased again if
the page is found to be properly placed in the future. It's in the next
hunk you modify although the periodically reset comment is now out of date.

FWIW, I'm also not happy with how the scan rate is reduced but did not
come up with a better alternative that was not fragile or depended on
gathering too much state. Granted, I also have not been treating it as a
high priority problem.

At some point in the past scan starts were based on waiting a fixed interval
but that seemed like a hack designed to get around hurting kernel compile
benchmarks. I'll give it more thought and see can I think of a better
alternative that is based on an event but not this event.

Ingo also disliked this but I wanted to avoid a situation where the
workload suffered because of a corner case where the interconnect was

Yeah its because of the next hunk. I figured that if we don't lower it,
we shouldn't raise it either.

Right, so what Ingo did is have the scan rate depend on the convergence.
What exactly did you dislike about that?
We could define the convergence as all the faults inside the interleave
mask vs the total faults, and then run at: min + (1 - c)*(max-min).

Ah, well the reasoning on that was that all this NUMA business is
'expensive' so we'd better only bother with tasks that persist long
enough for it to pay off.
In that regard it makes perfect sense to wait a fixed amount of runtime
before we start scanning.
So it was not a pure hack to make kbuild work again.. that is did was
good though.

Right, but you already rate limit the actual migrations, this should
leave enough bandwidth to allow the non-migrating scanning.
I think its important we keep up-to-date information if we're going to
do placement based on it.
On that rate-limit, this looks to be a hard-coded number unrelated to
the actual hardware. I think we should at the very least make it a
configurable number and preferably scale the number with the SLIT info.
Or alternatively actually measure the node to node bandwidth.

Agreed. To allow the scheduler parts to still be evaluated in proper

It depended entirely on properly detecting if we are converged or not. As
things like false share detection within THP is still not there I was
worried that it was too easy to make the wrong decision here and keep it
pinned at the maximum scan rate.

Which is fair enough but tasks that lasted *just* longer than the interval

Ok, you convinced me. I slapped a changelog on it that is a cut&paste job

Ideally we should just kick it away because scan rate limiting works
properly. Lets not make it a tunable just yet so we can avoid having to
deprecate it later.

Ok, you convinced me. I slapped a changelog on it that is a cut&paste job
and moved it earlier in the series.

Ideally we should just kick it away because scan rate limiting works
properly. Lets not make it a tunable just yet so we can avoid having to
deprecate it later.

New version that includes a final put for the numa_group struct and a
few other modifications.
The new task_numa_free() completely blows though, far too expensive.
Good ideas needed.

Subject: sched, numa: Use {cpu, pid} to create task groups for shared faults
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Date: Tue Jul 30 10:40:20 CEST 2013
A very simple/straight forward shared fault task grouping
implementation.
Concerns are that grouping on a single shared fault might be too
aggressive -- this only works because Mel is excluding DSOs for faults,
otherwise we'd have the world in a single group.
Future work could explore more complex means of picking groups. We
could for example track one group for the entire scan (using something
like PDM) and join it at the end of the scan if we deem it shared a
sufficient amount of memory.
Another avenue to explore is that to do with tasks where private faults
are predominant. Should we exclude them from the group or treat them as
secondary, creating a graded group that tries hardest to collate shared
tasks but also tries to move private tasks near when possible.
Also, the grouping information is completely unused, its up to future
patches to do this.

Humm:
kernel/sched/fair.c:
/* Scan @scan_size MB every @scan_period after an initial @scan_delay in ms */
unsigned int sysctl_numa_balancing_scan_delay = 1000;
kernel/sched/core.c:__sched_fork():
numa_scan_period = sysctl_numa_balancing_scan_delay
It seems its still there, no need to resuscitate.
I share your preference for a clear event, although nothing really comes
to mind. The entire multi-process space seems devoid of useful triggers.

I'm not seeing how the rate-limit as per the convergence is going to
help here. Suppose we migrate the task to another node and its going to
stay there. Then our convergence is going down to 0 (all our memory is
remote) so we end up at the max scan rate migrating every single page
ASAP.
This would completely and utterly saturate any interconnect.
Also, in the case we don't have a fully connected system the memory
transfers will need multiple hops, which greatly complicates the entire
accounting trick :-)
I'm not particularly arguing one way or another, just saying we could
probably blow the interconnect whatever we do.

So Rik just pointed out that this condition is likely to generate false
positives due to the birthday paradox. The problem with including
cpu/nid information is another kind of false positives.
We've no idea which is worse..

Yes, reverting 5bca23035391928c4c7301835accca3551b96cc2 effectively restores
the behaviour you are looking for. It just seems very crude. Then again,
I also should not have left the scan delay on top of the first_nid
check.

RSS was another option it felt as arbitrary as a plain delay.
Should I revert 5bca23035391928c4c7301835accca3551b96cc2 with an
explanation that it potentially is completely useless in the purely
multi-process shared case?

It should reduce the potential number of NUMA hinting faults that can be
incurred. However, I accept your point because even it does not directly
avoid a large number of migration events.

Good point and we'd arrive back at rate limiting the migration in an
attempt to avoid it.

Also unfortunately true. The larger the machine, the more likely this
becomes.

Should I revert 5bca23035391928c4c7301835accca3551b96cc2 with an
explanation that it potentially is completely useless in the purely

It should reduce the potential number of NUMA hinting faults that can be
incurred. However, I accept your point because even it does not directly
avoid a large number of migration events.

Good point and we'd arrive back at rate limiting the migration in an

Also unfortunately true. The larger the machine, the more likely this
becomes.

Right, it would avoid 'small' programs getting scanning done with the
rationale that their cost isn't that large since they don't have much
memory to begin with.
The same can be said for tasks that don't run much -- irrespective of
how much absolute runtime they've gathered.
Is there any other group of tasks that we do not want to scan?
Maybe if we can list all the various exclusions we can get to a proper
quantifier that way.
So far we've got:
- doesn't run long
- doesn't run much
- doesn't have much memory

As I had noted earlier, this upsets schedstats badly.
Can we add a TODO for this patch, which mentions that schedstats need to
taken care.
One alternative that I can think of is to have a per scheduling class
routine that gets called and does the needful.
for example: for fair share, it could update the schedstats as well as
check for cfs_throttling.
But I think its an issue that needs some fix or we should obsolete
schedstats.

Are we some times passing a wrong candidate?
Lets say the first cpu balanced is false and we set the swap_candidate,
but find the second cpu(/or later cpus) to be idle or has lesser effective load, then we
could be sending the task that is running on the first cpu as the swap
candidate.
Then would the preferred cpu and swap_candidate match?

Apart from load imbalance or heavily loaded cpus on the preferred node,
what could be the other reasons for migration failure with
migrate_task_to()? I see it almost similar to active load balance except
for pushing instead of pulling tasks.
If load imbalance is the only reason, do we need to retry? If the task
is really so attached to memory on that node, shouldn't we getting
task_numa_placement hit before the next 5 seconds?

Here is a quick strawman on how the group fault stuff could be used

suboptimal and in need of tweaking. My main goal is to get this to
Peter & Mel before it's breakfast time on their side of the Atlantic...
This goes on top of "sched, numa: Use {cpu, pid} to create task groups for shared faults"

Cant this lead to lot of imbalance across nodes? Wont this lead to lot
of ping-pong of tasks between different nodes resulting in performance
hit? Lets say the system is not fully loaded, something like a numa01
but with far lesser number of threads probably nr_cpus/2 or nr_cpus/4,
then all threads will try to move to single node as we can keep seeing
idle threads. No? Wont it lead all load moving to one node and load
balancer spreading it out...

Okay same case as above, the cpu could be lightly loaded, but the

This makes sense.. another part of the problem, which you might already
have spotted is selecting a task to swap with.
If you only look at per task faults its often impossible to find a
suitable swap task because moving you to a more suitable node would
degrade the other task -- below a patch you've already seen but I
haven't yet posted because I'm not at all sure its something 'sane' :-)
With group information your case might be stronger because you already
have many tasks on that node.
Still there's the tie where there's two groups with each exactly half
their tasks crossed between two nodes. I suppose we should forcefully
tie break in this case.
And all this while also maintaining the invariants placed by the regular
balancer. It would be no good to move tasks about if the balancer would
then have to shuffle stuff right back (or worse) in order to maintain
fairness.

This makes sense.. another part of the problem, which you might already
have spotted is selecting a task to swap with.
If you only look at per task faults its often impossible to find a
suitable swap task because moving you to a more suitable node would
degrade the other task -- below a patch you've already seen but I
haven't yet posted because I'm not at all sure its something 'sane' :-)
With group information your case might be stronger because you already
have many tasks on that node.
Still there's the tie where there's two groups with each exactly half
their tasks crossed between two nodes. I suppose we should forcefully
tie break in this case.
And all this while also maintaining the invariants placed by the regular
balancer. It would be no good to move tasks about if the balancer would
then have to shuffle stuff right back (or worse) in order to maintain
fairness.

Ideally it wouldn't because if we are trying to migrate the task to here in
the first place then it must have been scheduled there for long enough to
accumulate those faults. Now, there might be a ping-pong effect because a
tasks gets moved off by the load balancer because the CPUs are overloaded and
now we're trying to move it back. If we can detect that this is happening
then one way of dealing with it would be to clear p->numa_faults[] when
a task is moved off a node due to compute overload.

I cannot be 100% certain. I'm not strong enough on the scheduler yet and
the compute overloading handling is currently too weak.

Ideally it wouldn't because if we are trying to migrate the task to here in
the first place then it must have been scheduled there for long enough to
accumulate those faults. Now, there might be a ping-pong effect because a

Then at the second or later CPU swap_candidate == NULL so swap_p is

I did not realize you had not posted that patch yet, and was
actually building on top of it :)
I suspect that comparing both per-task and per-group fault weights
in task_numa_compare should make your code do the right thing in
task_numa_migrate.
I suspect there will be enough randomness in accesses that they
will never be exactly the same, so we might not need an explicit
tie breaker.
However, if numa_migrate_preferred fails, we may want to try
migrating to any node that has a better score than the current
one. After all, if we have a group of tasks that would fit in
2 NUMA nodes, we don't want half of the tasks to not migrate
at all because the top node is full. We want them to move to
the #2 node at some point.

Here is another (untested) version of task placement on top of
your task grouping. Better send it to you now, rather than on
your friday evening :)
The algorithm is loosely based on Andrea's placement algorithm,
but not as strict because I am not entirely confident that the
task grouping code works right yet...
It also has no "fall back to a better node than the current one"
code yet, for the case where we fail to migrate to the best node,
but that should be a separate patch anyway.
Subject: [PATCH,RFC] numa,sched: use group fault statistics in numa placement
This version uses the fraction of faults on a particular node for
both task and group, to figure out the best node to place a task.
I wish I had benchmark numbers to report, but our timezones just
don't seem to work out that way. Enjoy at your own peril :)
I will be testing these tomorrow.

Here is another (untested) version of task placement on top of
your task grouping. Better send it to you now, rather than on
your friday evening :)
The algorithm is loosely based on Andrea's placement algorithm,
but not as strict because I am not entirely confident that the
task grouping code works right yet...
It also has no "fall back to a better node than the current one"
code yet, for the case where we fail to migrate to the best node,
but that should be a separate patch anyway.
Subject: [PATCH,RFC] numa,sched: use group fault statistics in numa placement
This version uses the fraction of faults on a particular node for
both task and group, to figure out the best node to place a task.
I wish I had benchmark numbers to report, but our timezones just
don't seem to work out that way. Enjoy at your own peril :)
I will be testing these tomorrow.

And here's a little something to make sure not the whole world ends up
in a single group.
As while we don't migrate shared executable pages, we do scan/fault on
them. And since everybody links to libc, everybody ends up in the same
group.

OK, so that comment is crap. Its that you cannot work into RO pages and

Rik also noted that mapcount == 1 will trivially not form groups. This
should indeed be so but I didn't test it without that clause.

Using the fraction of the faults that happen on each node to
determine both the group weight and the task weight of each
node, and attempting to move the task to the node with the
highest score, seems to work fairly well.
Here are the specjbb scores with this patch, on top of your
task grouping patches:

I suspect there may be further room for improvement, but it
may be time for this patch to go into Mel's tree, so others
will test it as well, helping us all learn what is broken
and how it can be improved...

I've been testing what I believe is the accumulation of Mel's
original changes plus what Peter added via LKML and this thread
then this change. Don't think I missed any, but apologies if I
did.
Looking at it with Andrea's AutoNUMA tests (modified to automatically
generate power-of-two runs based on the available nodes -- i.e.
a 4 node system would run 2-node then 4-node, 8 node runs 2,4,8,
16 (if I had one) should do 2,4,8,16, etc.) it does look like
the "highest score" is being used -- but that's not really a
great thing for this type of private memory accessed by
multiple processes -- it looks to be all concentrating back
into a single node in the unbound cases for the runs beyond
2 nodes taking 1000+ seconds where the stock kernel takes 670
and the hard binding takes only 483. So it looks to me like the
weighting here is a bit too strong -- we don't want all the
tasks on the same node (more threads than available processors)
when there's an idle node reasonably close we can move some of
the memory to. Granted, this would be easier in cases with
really large DBs where the memory *and* cpu load are both
larger than the node resources....
Including a spreadsheet with the basic run / hard binding run
memory layout as things run and a run summary for comparison.

OK, here's one that actually works and doesn't have magical crashes.

Subject: mm, sched, numa: Create a per-task MPOL_INTERLEAVE policy
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Date: Mon Jul 22 10:42:38 CEST 2013
For those tasks belonging to groups that span nodes -- for whatever
reason -- we want to interleave their memory allocations to minimize
their performance penalty.
There's a subtlety to interleaved memory allocations though, once you
establish an interleave mask a measurement of where the actual memory
is is completely flat across those nodes. Therefore we'll never
actually shrink the interleave mask, even if at some point all tasks
can/do run on a single node again.
To fix this issue, change the accounting so that when we find a page
part of the interleave mask, we still account it against the current
node, not the node the page is really at.
Finally, simplify the 'default' numa policy. It used a per-node
preferred node policy and always picked the current node, this can be
written with a single MPOL_F_LOCAL policy.

So Rik and me found a possible issue with this -- although in the end it
turned out to be a userspace 'feature' instead.
It might be possible for a COW page to be 'shared' and thus get a
last_cpupid set from another process. When we break cow and reuse the
now private and writable page might still have this last_cpupid and thus
cause a shared fault and form grouping.
Something like the below resets the last_cpupid field on reuse much like
fresh COW copies will have.
There might be something that avoids the above scenario but I'm too
tired to come up with anything.

I believe this is a real bug.
It can be avoided by either -1ing out the cpupid like you do, or
using the current process's cpupid, when we re-use an old page
in do_wp_page.
