[PATCH 0/4] De-couple sysfs memory directories from memory sections

[PATCH 0/4] De-couple sysfs memory directories from memory sections

[Nathan Fontenot]

This is a re-send of the remaining patches that did not make it
into the last kernel release for de-coupling sysfs memory
directories from memory sections.  The first three patches of the
previous set went in, and this is the remaining patches that
need to be applied.

The patches decouple the concept that a single memory section corresponds
to a single directory in /sys/devices/system/memory/.  On systems
with large amounts of memory (1+ TB) there are performance issues
related to creating the large number of sysfs directories.  For
a powerpc machine with 1 TB of memory we are creating 63,000+
directories.  This is resulting in boot times of around 45-50
minutes for systems with 1 TB of memory and 8+ hours for systems
with 2 TB of memory.  With this patch set applied I am now seeing
boot times of 5 minutes or less.

The root of this issue is in sysfs directory creation. Every time
a directory is created a string compare is done against sibling
directories ( see sysfs_find_dirent() ) to ensure we do not create 
duplicates.  The list of directory nodes in sysfs is kept as an
unsorted list which results in this being an exponentially longer
operation as the number of directories are created.

The solution solved by this patch set is to allow a single
directory in sysfs to span multiple memory sections.  This is
controlled by an optional architecturally defined function
memory_block_size_bytes().  The default definition of this
routine returns a memory block size equal to the memory section
size. This maintains the current layout of sysfs memory
directories as it appears to userspace to remain the same as it
is today.

For architectures that define their own version of this routine,
as is done for powerpc and x86 in this patchset, the view in userspace
would change such that each memoryXXX directory would span
multiple memory sections.  The number of sections spanned would
depend on the value reported by memory_block_size_bytes.

[PATCH 1/4] Allow memory blocks to span multiple memory sections

[Nathan Fontenot]

Update the memory sysfs code such that each sysfs memory directory is now
considered a memory block that can span multiple memory sections per
memory block.  The default size of each memory block is SECTION_SIZE_BITS
to maintain the current behavior of having a single memory section per
memory block (i.e. one sysfs directory per memory section).

For architectures that want to have memory blocks span multiple
memory sections they need only define their own memory_block_size_bytes()
routine.

Update the memory hotplug documentation to reflect the new behaviors of
memory blocks reflected in sysfs.

[PATCH 1/4] Allow memory blocks to span multiple memory sections

[Nathan Fontenot]

Update the memory sysfs code such that each sysfs memory directory is now
considered a memory block that can span multiple memory sections per
memory block.  The default size of each memory block is SECTION_SIZE_BITS
to maintain the current behavior of having a single memory section per
memory block (i.e. one sysfs directory per memory section).

For architectures that want to have memory blocks span multiple
memory sections they need only define their own memory_block_size_bytes()
routine.

Update the memory hotplug documentation to reflect the new behaviors of
memory blocks reflected in sysfs.

[PATCH 2/4] Update phys_index to [start|end]_section_nr

[Nathan Fontenot]

Update the 'phys_index' property of a the memory_block struct to be
called start_section_nr, and add a end_section_nr property.  The
data tracked here is the same but the updated naming is more in line
with what is stored here, namely the first and last section number
that the memory block spans.

The names presented to userspace remain the same, phys_index for
start_section_nr and end_phys_index for end_section_nr, to avoid breaking
anything in userspace.

This also updates the node sysfs code to be aware of the new capability for
a memory block to contain multiple memory sections and be aware of the memory
block structure name changes (start_section_nr).  This requires an additional
parameter to unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes so that we know which memory
section of the memory block to unregister.

[PATCH 2/4] Update phys_index to [start|end]_section_nr

[Nathan Fontenot]

Update the 'phys_index' property of a the memory_block struct to be
called start_section_nr, and add a end_section_nr property.  The
data tracked here is the same but the updated naming is more in line
with what is stored here, namely the first and last section number
that the memory block spans.

The names presented to userspace remain the same, phys_index for
start_section_nr and end_phys_index for end_section_nr, to avoid breaking
anything in userspace.

This also updates the node sysfs code to be aware of the new capability for
a memory block to contain multiple memory sections and be aware of the memory
block structure name changes (start_section_nr).  This requires an additional
parameter to unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes so that we know which memory
section of the memory block to unregister.

Hi Nathan !

Is somebody from -mm picking the rest of the series ? This patch as well
or shall I wait for the first two to go in and then pick that one in
-powerpc ?

Cheers,
Ben.

Hi Nathan !

Is somebody from -mm picking the rest of the series ? This patch as well
or shall I wait for the first two to go in and then pick that one in
-powerpc ?

Cheers,
Ben.

Yes, the string compare is still present in the sysfs code.  There was
discussion around this sometime last year when I sent a patch out that
stored the directory entries in something other than a linked list.
That patch was rejected but it was agreed that something should be done.

Just to be clear, simply reducing the number of kobjects can make these
patches worthwhile on their own.  I originally figured that the
SECTION_SIZE would go up over time as systems got larger, and _that_
would keep the number of sections and number of sysfs objects down.
Well, that turned out to be wrong, and we're eating up a ton of memory
now.  We can't fix the SECTION_SIZE easily, but we can reduce the number
of kobjects that we need to track the sections.  *That* is the main
benefit I see from these patches.

I think there's a problem worth fixing, even ignoring the directory
creation issue (if it still exists).

[PATCH 0/4] De-couple sysfs memory directories from memory sections

[Nathan Fontenot]

This is a re-send of the remaining patches that did not make it
into the last kernel release for de-coupling sysfs memory
directories from memory sections.  The first three patches of the
previous set went in, and this is the remaining patches that
need to be applied.

The patches decouple the concept that a single memory
section corresponds to a single directory in 
/sys/devices/system/memory/.  On systems
with large amounts of memory (1+ TB) there are performance issues
related to creating the large number of sysfs directories.  For
a powerpc machine with 1 TB of memory we are creating 63,000+
directories.  This is resulting in boot times of around 45-50
minutes for systems with 1 TB of memory and 8 hours for systems
with 2 TB of memory.  With this patch set applied I am now seeing
boot times of 5 minutes or less.

The root of this issue is in sysfs directory creation. Every time
a directory is created a string compare is done against all sibling
directories to ensure we do not create duplicates.  The list of
directory nodes in sysfs is kept as an unsorted list which results
in this being an exponentially longer operation as the number of
directories are created.

The solution solved by this patch set is to allow a single
directory in sysfs to span multiple memory sections.  This is
controlled by an optional architecturally defined function
memory_block_size_bytes().  The default definition of this
routine returns a memory block size equal to the memory section
size. This maintains the current layout of sysfs memory
directories as it appears to userspace to remain the same as it
is today.

For architectures that define their own version of this routine,
as is done for powerpc and x86 in this patchset, the view in userspace
would change such that each memoryXXX directory would span
multiple memory sections.  The number of sections spanned would
depend on the value reported by memory_block_size_bytes.

-Nathan Fontenot

[PATCH 1/4] allow memory blocks to span multiple memory sections

[Nathan Fontenot]

Update the memory sysfs code such that each sysfs memory directory is now
considered a memory block that can span multiple memory sections per
memory block.  The default size of each memory block is SECTION_SIZE_BITS
to maintain the current behavior of having a single memory section per
memory block (i.e. one sysfs directory per memory section).

For architectures that want to have memory blocks span multiple
memory sections they need only define their own memory_block_size_bytes()
routine.

Update the memory hotplug documentation to reflect the new behaviors of
memory blocks reflected in sysfs.

[PATCH 1/4] allow memory blocks to span multiple memory sections

[Nathan Fontenot]

Update the memory sysfs code such that each sysfs memory directory is now
considered a memory block that can span multiple memory sections per
memory block.  The default size of each memory block is SECTION_SIZE_BITS
to maintain the current behavior of having a single memory section per
memory block (i.e. one sysfs directory per memory section).

For architectures that want to have memory blocks span multiple
memory sections they need only define their own memory_block_size_bytes()
routine.

Update the memory hotplug documentation to reflect the new behaviors of
memory blocks reflected in sysfs.

 4 sysfs files for memory hotplug
 --------------------------------
-All sections have their device information under /sys/devices/system/memory as
+All sections have their device information in sysfs.  Each section is part of
+a memory block under /sys/devices/system/memory as
 
 /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXXX
-(XXX is section id.)
+(XXX is the section id.)
 
-Now, XXX is defined as start_address_of_section / section_size.
+Now, XXX is defined as (start_address_of_section / section_size) of the first
+section contained in the memory block.  The files 'phys_index' and
+'end_phys_index' under each directory report the beginning and end section id's
+for the memory block covered by the sysfs directory.  It is expected that all
+memory sections in this range are present and no memory holes exist in the
+range. Currently there is no way to determine if there is a memory hole, but
+the existence of one should not affect the hotplug capabilities of the memory
+block.
 
 For example, assume 1GiB section size. A device for a memory starting at
 0x100000000 is /sys/device/system/memory/memory4
 (0x100000000 / 1Gib = 4)
 This device covers address range [0x100000000 ... 0x140000000)
 
-Under each section, you can see 4 files.
+Under each section, you can see 4 or 5 files, the end_phys_index file being
+a recent addition and not present on older kernels.
