Patch series "mm: PCP high auto-tuning", v3.
The page allocation performance requirements of different workloads are
often different. So, we need to tune the PCP (Per-CPU Pageset) high on
each CPU automatically to optimize the page allocation performance.
The list of patches in series is as follows,
[1/9] mm, pcp: avoid to drain PCP when process exit
[2/9] cacheinfo: calculate per-CPU data cache size
[3/9] mm, pcp: reduce lock contention for draining high-order pages
[4/9] mm: restrict the pcp batch scale factor to avoid too long latency
[5/9] mm, page_alloc: scale the number of pages that are batch allocated
[6/9] mm: add framework for PCP high auto-tuning
[7/9] mm: tune PCP high automatically
[8/9] mm, pcp: decrease PCP high if free pages < high watermark
[9/9] mm, pcp: reduce detecting time of consecutive high order page freeing
Patch [1/9], [2/9], [3/9] optimize the PCP draining for consecutive
high-order pages freeing.
Patch [4/9], [5/9] optimize batch freeing and allocating.
Patch [6/9], [7/9], [8/9] implement and optimize a PCP high
auto-tuning method.
Patch [9/9] optimize the PCP draining for consecutive high order page
freeing based on PCP high auto-tuning.
The test results for patches with performance impact are as follows,
kbuild
======
On a 2-socket Intel server with 224 logical CPU, we run 8 kbuild instances
in parallel (each with `make -j 28`) in 8 cgroup. This simulates the
kbuild server that is used by 0-Day kbuild service.

patch7 95.1 0.5 2.8 15.6
patch9 95.0 1.0 8.8 20.0
The PCP draining optimization (patch [1/9], [3/9]) and PCP batch
allocation optimization (patch [5/9]) reduces zone lock contention a
little. The PCP high auto-tuning (patch [7/9], [9/9]) reduces build time
visibly. Where the tuning target: the number of pages allocated from zone
reduces greatly. So, the zone contention cycles% reduces greatly.
With PCP tuning patches (patch [7/9], [9/9]), the average used memory
during test increases up to 18.4% because more pages are cached in PCP.
But at the end of the test, the number of the used memory decreases to the
same level as that of the base patch. That is, the pages cached in PCP
will be released to zone after not being used actively.
netperf SCTP_STREAM_MANY
========================
On a 2-socket Intel server with 128 logical CPU, we tested
SCTP_STREAM_MANY test case of netperf test suite with 64-pair processes.

The PCP draining optimization (patch [1/9]+[3/9]) improves performance.
The PCP high auto-tuning (patch [7/9]) reduces performance a little
because PCP draining cannot be triggered in time sometimes. So, the cache
miss rate% increases. The further PCP draining optimization (patch [9/9])
based on PCP tuning restore the performance.
lmbench3 UNIX (AF_UNIX)
=======================
On a 2-socket Intel server with 128 logical CPU, we tested UNIX
(AF_UNIX socket) test case of lmbench3 test suite with 16-pair
processes.

The patchset adds several fields in struct per_cpu_pages. The struct
layout before/after the patchset is as follows,
base

struct per_cpu_pages {

/* size: 256, cachelines: 4, members: 11 */
/* sum members: 237, holes: 2, sum holes: 3 */
/* padding: 16 */
} __attribute__((__aligned__(64)));
The size of the struct doesn't changed with the patchset.
This patch (of 9):
In commit f26b3fa04611 ("mm/page_alloc: limit number of high-order pages
on PCP during bulk free"), the PCP (Per-CPU Pageset) will be drained when
PCP is mostly used for high-order pages freeing to improve the cache-hot
pages reusing between page allocation and freeing CPUs.
But, the PCP draining mechanism may be triggered unexpectedly when process
exits. With some customized trace point, it was found that PCP draining
(free_high == true) was triggered with the order-1 page freeing with the
following call stack,
=> free_unref_page_commit
=> free_unref_page
=> __mmdrop
=> exit_mm
=> do_exit
=> do_group_exit
=> __x64_sys_exit_group
=> do_syscall_64
Checking the source code, this is the page table PGD freeing
(mm_free_pgd()). It's a order-1 page freeing if
CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION=y. Which is a common configuration for
security.
Just before that, page freeing with the following call stack was found,
=> free_unref_page_commit
=> free_unref_page_list
=> release_pages
=> tlb_batch_pages_flush
=> tlb_finish_mmu
=> exit_mmap
=> __mmput
=> exit_mm
=> do_exit
=> do_group_exit
=> __x64_sys_exit_group
=> do_syscall_64
So, when a process exits,
- a large number of user pages of the process will be freed without
page allocation, it's highly possible that pcp->free_factor becomes >
0. In fact, this is expected behavior to improve process exit
performance.
- after freeing all user pages, the PGD will be freed, which is a
order-1 page freeing, PCP will be drained.
All in all, when a process exits, it's high possible that the PCP will be
drained. This is an unexpected behavior.
To avoid this, in the patch, the PCP draining will only be triggered for 2
consecutive high-order page freeing.
On a 2-socket Intel server with 224 logical CPU, we run 8 kbuild instances
in parallel (each with `make -j 28`) in 8 cgroup. This simulates the
kbuild server that is used by 0-Day kbuild service. With the patch, the
cycles% of the spinlock contention (mostly for zone lock) decreases from
14.0% to 12.8% (with PCP size == 367). The number of PCP draining for
high order pages freeing (free_high) decreases 80.5%.
This helps network workload too for reduced zone lock contention. On a
2-socket Intel server with 128 logical CPU, with the patch, the network
bandwidth of the UNIX (AF_UNIX) test case of lmbench test suite with
16-pair processes increase 16.8%. The cycles% of the spinlock contention
(mostly for zone lock) decreases from 51.4% to 46.1%. The number of PCP
draining for high order pages freeing (free_high) decreases 30.5%. The
cache miss rate keeps 0.2%.
