[PATCH v10 0/9] X86 TLB flush optimization

[PATCH v10 0/9] X86 TLB flush optimization

[Alex Shi]

Thank for Fengguang's 0-day build system. It found 2 build errors on 
the first and 7th patch.

So this version fix them, introduce a c_detect_tlb() member into
struct cpu_dev for tlb entries detection of specific CPU vendor.

Thanks all of comments and testing on this patchset!

[PATCH v10 1/9] x86/tlb_info: get last level TLB entry number of CPU

[Alex Shi]

For 4KB pages, x86 CPU has 2 or 1 level TLB, first level is data TLB and
instruction TLB, second level is shared TLB for both data and instructions.

For hupe page TLB, usually there is just one level and seperated by 2MB/4MB
and 1GB.

Although each levels TLB size is important for performance tuning, but for
genernal and rude optimizing, last level TLB entry number is suitable. And
in fact, last level TLB always has the biggest entry number.

This patch will get the biggest TLB entry number and use it in furture TLB
optimizing.

Accroding Borislav's suggestion, except tlb_ll[i/d]_* array, other
function and data will be released after system boot up.

For all kinds of x86 vendor friendly, vendor specific code was moved to its
specific files.

[PATCH v10 2/9] x86/flush_tlb: try flush_tlb_single one by one in flush_tlb_range

[Alex Shi]

x86 has no flush_tlb_range support in instruction level. Currently the
flush_tlb_range just implemented by flushing all page table. That is not
the best solution for all scenarios. In fact, if we just use 'invlpg' to
flush few lines from TLB, we can get the performance gain from later
remain TLB lines accessing.

But the 'invlpg' instruction costs much of time. Its execution time can
compete with cr3 rewriting, and even a bit more on SNB CPU.

So, on a 512 4KB TLB entries CPU, the balance points is at:
	(512 - X) * 100ns(assumed TLB refill cost) =
		X(TLB flush entries) * 100ns(assumed invlpg cost)

Here, X is 256, that is 1/2 of 512 entries.

But with the mysterious CPU pre-fetcher and page miss handler Unit, the
assumed TLB refill cost is far lower then 100ns in sequential access. And
2 HT siblings in one core makes the memory access more faster if they are
accessing the same memory. So, in the patch, I just do the change when
the target entries is less than 1/16 of whole active tlb entries.
Actually, I have no data support for the percentage '1/16', so any
suggestions are welcomed.

As to hugetlb, guess due to smaller page table, and smaller active TLB
entries, I didn't see benefit via my benchmark, so no optimizing now.

My micro benchmark show in ideal scenarios, the performance improves 70
percent in reading. And in worst scenario, the reading/writing
performance is similar with unpatched 3.4-rc4 kernel.

Here is the reading data on my 2P * 4cores *HT NHM EP machine, with THP
'always':

multi thread testing, '-t' paramter is thread number:
	       	        with patch   unpatched 3.4-rc4
./mprotect -t 1           14ns		24ns
./mprotect -t 2           13ns		22ns
./mprotect -t 4           12ns		19ns
./mprotect -t 8           14ns		16ns
./mprotect -t 16          28ns		26ns
./mprotect -t 32          54ns		51ns
./mprotect -t 128         200ns		199ns

Single process with sequencial flushing and memory accessing:

		       	with patch   unpatched 3.4-rc4
./mprotect		    7ns			11ns
./mprotect -p 4096  -l 8 -n 10240
			    21ns		21ns

x86/flush_tlb: try flush_tlb_single one by one in flush_tlb_range

x86 has no flush_tlb_range support in instruction level. Currently the
flush_tlb_range just implemented by flushing all page table. That is not
the best solution for all scenarios. In fact, if we just use 'invlpg' to
flush few lines from TLB, we can get the performance gain from later
remain TLB lines accessing.

But the 'invlpg' instruction costs much of time. Its execution time can
compete with cr3 rewriting, and even a bit more on SNB CPU.

So, on a 512 4KB TLB entries CPU, the balance points is at:
	(512 - X) * 100ns(assumed TLB refill cost) =
		X(TLB flush entries) * 100ns(assumed invlpg cost)

Here, X is 256, that is 1/2 of 512 entries.

But with the mysterious CPU pre-fetcher and page miss handler Unit, the
assumed TLB refill cost is far lower then 100ns in sequential access. And
2 HT siblings in one core makes the memory access more faster if they are
accessing the same memory. So, in the patch, I just do the change when
the target entries is less than 1/16 of whole active tlb entries.
Actually, I have no data support for the percentage '1/16', so any
suggestions are welcomed.

As to hugetlb, guess due to smaller page table, and smaller active TLB
entries, I didn't see benefit via my benchmark, so no optimizing now.

My micro benchmark show in ideal scenarios, the performance improves 70
percent in reading. And in worst scenario, the reading/writing
performance is similar with unpatched 3.4-rc4 kernel.

Here is the reading data on my 2P * 4cores *HT NHM EP machine, with THP
'always':

multi thread testing, '-t' paramter is thread number:
	       	        with patch   unpatched 3.4-rc4
./mprotect -t 1           14ns		24ns
./mprotect -t 2           13ns		22ns
./mprotect -t 4           12ns		19ns
./mprotect -t 8           14ns		16ns
./mprotect -t 16          28ns		26ns
./mprotect -t 32          54ns		51ns
./mprotect -t 128         200ns		199ns

Single process with sequencial flushing and memory accessing:

		       	with patch   unpatched 3.4-rc4
./mprotect		    7ns			11ns
./mprotect -p 4096  -l 8 -n 10240
			    21ns		21ns

[PATCH v10 3/9] x86/tlb: fall back to flush all when meet a THP large page

[Alex Shi]

We don't need to flush large pages by PAGE_SIZE step, that just waste
time. and actually, large page don't need 'invlpg' optimizing according
to our micro benchmark. So, just flush whole TLB is enough for them.

The following result is tested on a 2CPU * 4cores * 2HT NHM EP machine,
with THP 'always' setting.

Multi-thread testing, '-t' paramter is thread number:

[PATCH v10 4/9] x86/tlb: add tlb_flushall_shift for specific CPU

[Alex Shi]

Testing show different CPU type(micro architectures and NUMA mode) has
different balance points between the TLB flush all and multiple invlpg.
And there also has cases the tlb flush change has no any help.

This patch give a interface to let x86 vendor developers have a chance
to set different shift for different CPU type.

like some machine in my hands, balance points is 16 entries on
Romely-EP; while it is at 8 entries on Bloomfield NHM-EP; and is 256 on
IVB mobile CPU. but on model 15 core2 Xeon using invlpg has nothing
help.

For untested machine, do a conservative optimization, same as NHM CPU.

[PATCH v10 5/9] x86/tlb: add tlb_flushall_shift knob into debugfs

[Alex Shi]

kernel will replace cr3 rewrite with invlpg when
  tlb_flush_entries <= active_tlb_entries / 2^tlb_flushall_factor
if tlb_flushall_factor is -1, kernel won't do this replacement.

User can modify its value according to specific CPU/applications.

Thanks for Borislav providing the help message of
CONFIG_DEBUG_TLBFLUSH.

[PATCH v10 6/9] mm/mmu_gather: enable tlb flush range in generic mmu_gather

[Alex Shi]

This patch enabled the tlb flush range support in generic mmu layer.

Most of arch has self tlb flush range support, like ARM/IA64 etc.
X86 arch has no this support in hardware yet. But another instruction
'invlpg' can implement this function in some degree. So, enable this
feather in generic layer for x86 now. and maybe useful for other archs
in further.

Generic mmu_gather struct is protected by micro
HAVE_GENERIC_MMU_GATHER. Other archs that has flush range supported
own self mmu_gather struct. So, now this change is safe for them.

In future we may unify this struct and related functions on multiple
archs.

Thanks for Peter Zijlstra time and time reminder for multiple
architecture code safe!

[PATCH v10 7/9] x86/tlb: enable tlb flush range support for x86

[Alex Shi]

Not every tlb_flush execution moment is really need to evacuate all
TLB entries, like in munmap, just few 'invlpg' is better for whole
process performance, since it leaves most of TLB entries for later
accessing.

This patch also rewrite flush_tlb_range for 2 purposes:
1, split it out to get flush_blt_mm_range function.
2, clean up to reduce line breaking, thanks for Borislav's input.

My micro benchmark 'mummap' http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/17/59
show that the random memory access on other CPU has 0~50% speed up
on a 2P * 4cores * HT NHM EP while do 'munmap'.

Thanks Yongjie's testing on this patch:
-------------
I used Linux 3.4-RC6 w/ and w/o his patches as Xen dom0 and guest
kernel.
After running two benchmarks in Xen HVM guest, I found his patches
brought about 1%~3% performance gain in 'kernel build' and 'netperf'
testing, though the performance gain was not very stable in 'kernel
build' testing.

Some detailed testing results are below.

Testing Environment:
	Hardware: Romley-EP platform
	Xen version: latest upstream
	Linux kernel: 3.4-RC6
	Guest vCPU number: 8
	NIC: Intel 82599 (10GB bandwidth)

In 'kernel build' testing in guest:
	Command line  |  performance gain
    make -j 4      |    3.81%
    make -j 8      |    0.37%
    make -j 16     |    -0.52%

In 'netperf' testing, we tested TCP_STREAM with default socket size
16384 byte as large packet and 64 byte as small packet.
I used several clients to add networking pressure, then 'netperf' server
automatically generated several threads to response them.
I also used large-size packet and small-size packet in the testing.
	Packet size  |  Thread number | performance gain
	16384 bytes  |      4       |   0.02%
	16384 bytes  |      8       |   2.21%
	16384 bytes  |      16      |   2.04%
	64 bytes     |      4       |   1.07%
	64 bytes     |      8       |   3.31%
	64 bytes     |      16      |   0.71%

x86/tlb: enable tlb flush range support for x86

Not every tlb_flush execution moment is really need to evacuate all
TLB entries, like in munmap, just few 'invlpg' is better for whole
process performance, since it leaves most of TLB entries for later
accessing.

This patch also rewrite flush_tlb_range for 2 purposes:
1, split it out to get flush_blt_mm_range function.
2, clean up to reduce line breaking, thanks for Borislav's input.

My micro benchmark 'mummap' http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/17/59
show that the random memory access on other CPU has 0~50% speed up
on a 2P * 4cores * HT NHM EP while do 'munmap'.

Thanks Yongjie's testing on this patch:
-------------
I used Linux 3.4-RC6 w/ and w/o his patches as Xen dom0 and guest
kernel.
After running two benchmarks in Xen HVM guest, I found his patches
brought about 1%~3% performance gain in 'kernel build' and 'netperf'
testing, though the performance gain was not very stable in 'kernel
build' testing.

Some detailed testing results are below.

Testing Environment:
	Hardware: Romley-EP platform
	Xen version: latest upstream
	Linux kernel: 3.4-RC6
	Guest vCPU number: 8
	NIC: Intel 82599 (10GB bandwidth)

In 'kernel build' testing in guest:
	Command line  |  performance gain
    make -j 4      |    3.81%
    make -j 8      |    0.37%
    make -j 16     |    -0.52%

In 'netperf' testing, we tested TCP_STREAM with default socket size
16384 byte as large packet and 64 byte as small packet.
I used several clients to add networking pressure, then 'netperf' server
automatically generated several threads to response them.
I also used large-size packet and small-size packet in the testing.
	Packet size  |  Thread number | performance gain
	16384 bytes  |      4       |   0.02%
	16384 bytes  |      8       |   2.21%
	16384 bytes  |      16      |   2.04%
	64 bytes     |      4       |   1.07%
	64 bytes     |      8       |   3.31%
	64 bytes     |      16      |   0.71%

There's a problem with this in one of my randconfig tests. It has
!CONFIG_SMP and the warning is:

mm/memory.c: In function ‘tlb_flush_mmu’:
mm/memory.c:230:2: warning: passing argument 1 of ‘flush_tlb_mm_range’ from incompatible pointer type
/usr/src/linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h:108:20: note: expected ‘struct vm_area_struct *’ but argument is of type ‘struct mm_struct *’
mm/memory.c:230:2: warning: passing argument 1 of ‘flush_tlb_mm_range’ from incompatible pointer type
/usr/src/linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h:108:20: note: expected ‘struct vm_area_struct *’ but argument is of type ‘struct mm_struct *’


Due to the fact that the macro flush_tlb actually resolves to
flush_tlb_mm_range and this function has a different signature based on
CONFIG_SMP. On !SMP expects struct vm_area_struct * as a first argument
but on SMP its first argument is struct mm_struct *.

So two different function signatures based on a config option? Now
that's a first. What is going on?

Sure, it is a bug, the fix had sent:

Since, it has not impact for the serial left patches, and linux-next has not merge this patchset. I folded this patch into original. 
Is that ok, or need a separated one?

Subject: [PATCH 7/9] x86/tlb: enable tlb flush range support for x86

Not every tlb_flush execution moment is really need to evacuate all
TLB entries, like in munmap, just few 'invlpg' is better for whole
process performance, since it leaves most of TLB entries for later
accessing.

This patch also rewrite flush_tlb_range for 2 purposes:
1, split it out to get flush_blt_mm_range function.
2, clean up to reduce line breaking, thanks for Borislav's input.

My micro benchmark 'mummap' http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/17/59
show that the random memory access on other CPU has 0~50% speed up
on a 2P * 4cores * HT NHM EP while do 'munmap'.

Thanks Yongjie's testing on this patch:
-------------
I used Linux 3.4-RC6 w/ and w/o his patches as Xen dom0 and guest
kernel.
After running two benchmarks in Xen HVM guest, I found his patches
brought about 1%~3% performance gain in 'kernel build' and 'netperf'
testing, though the performance gain was not very stable in 'kernel
build' testing.

Some detailed testing results are below.

Testing Environment:
	Hardware: Romley-EP platform
	Xen version: latest upstream
	Linux kernel: 3.4-RC6
	Guest vCPU number: 8
	NIC: Intel 82599 (10GB bandwidth)

In 'kernel build' testing in guest:
	Command line  |  performance gain
    make -j 4      |    3.81%
    make -j 8      |    0.37%
    make -j 16     |    -0.52%

In 'netperf' testing, we tested TCP_STREAM with default socket size
16384 byte as large packet and 64 byte as small packet.
I used several clients to add networking pressure, then 'netperf' server
automatically generated several threads to response them.
I also used large-size packet and small-size packet in the testing.
	Packet size  |  Thread number | performance gain
	16384 bytes  |      4       |   0.02%
	16384 bytes  |      8       |   2.21%
	16384 bytes  |      16      |   2.04%
	64 bytes     |      4       |   1.07%
	64 bytes     |      8       |   3.31%
	64 bytes     |      16      |   0.71%

This patch also fold a flush_tlb_mm_range() fixing in 'make allnoconfig'
, that reported by Tetsuo Handa. Thanks!

Separate is better.  When I say clean patch I mean in a separate email so git am can process it.

[PATCH v10 8/9] x86/tlb: replace INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR by CALL_FUNCTION_VECTOR

[Alex Shi]

There are 32 INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR now in kernel. That is quite big
amount of vector in IDT. But it is still not enough, since modern x86
sever has more cpu number. That still causes heavy lock contention
in TLB flushing.

The patch using generic smp call function to replace it. That saved 32
vector number in IDT, and resolved the lock contention in TLB
flushing on large system.

In the NHM EX machine 4P * 8cores * HT = 64 CPUs, hackbench pthread
has 3% performance increase.

x86/tlb: replace INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR by CALL_FUNCTION_VECTOR

There are 32 INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR now in kernel. That is quite big
amount of vector in IDT. But it is still not enough, since modern x86
sever has more cpu number. That still causes heavy lock contention
in TLB flushing.

The patch using generic smp call function to replace it. That saved 32
vector number in IDT, and resolved the lock contention in TLB
flushing on large system.

In the NHM EX machine 4P * 8cores * HT = 64 CPUs, hackbench pthread
has 3% performance increase.

[PATCH v10 9/9] x86/tlb: do flush_tlb_kernel_range by 'invlpg'

[Alex Shi]

This patch do flush_tlb_kernel_range by 'invlpg'. The performance pay
and gain was analyzed in previous patch
(x86/flush_tlb: try flush_tlb_single one by one in flush_tlb_range).

In the testing: http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/21/10

The pay is mostly covered by long kernel path, but the gain is still
quite clear, memory access in user APP can increase 30+% when kernel
execute this funtion.

x86/tlb: do flush_tlb_kernel_range by 'invlpg'

This patch do flush_tlb_kernel_range by 'invlpg'. The performance pay
and gain was analyzed in previous patch
(x86/flush_tlb: try flush_tlb_single one by one in flush_tlb_range).

In the testing: http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/21/10

The pay is mostly covered by long kernel path, but the gain is still
quite clear, memory access in user APP can increase 30+% when kernel
execute this funtion.

[PATCH v9 3/9] x86/tlb: fall back to flush all when meet a THP large page

[Alex Shi]

We don't need to flush large pages by PAGE_SIZE step, that just waste
time. and actually, large page don't need 'invlpg' optimizing according
to our macro benchmark. So, just flush whole TLB is enough for them.

The following result is tested on a 2CPU * 4cores * 2HT NHM EP machine,
with THP 'always' setting.

Multi-thread testing, '-t' paramter is thread number:
