Subject: mm/compaction: enable compacting >0 order folios.
Date: Fri, 2 Feb 2024 11:15:52 -0500
Patch series "Enable >0 order folio memory compaction", v3.
This patchset enables >0 order folio memory compaction, which is one of
the prerequisitions for large folio support[1]. It includes the fix[4]
for V2 and is on top of mm-everything-2024-01-29-07-19.
I am aware of that split free pages is necessary for folio migration in
compaction, since if >0 order free pages are never split and no order-0
free page is scanned, compaction will end prematurely due to migration
returns -ENOMEM. Free page split becomes a must instead of an
optimization.
lkp ncompare results for default LRU (-no-mglru) and CONFIG_LRU_GEN are
shown at the bottom (on a 8-CPU (Intel Xeon E5-2650 v4 @ 2.20GHz) 16G VM).
In sum, most of vm-scalability applications do not see performance
change, and the others see ~4% to ~26% performance boost under default LRU
and ~2% to ~6% performance boost under CONFIG_LRU_GEN.
This patch (of 3):
migrate_pages() supports >0 order folio migration and during compaction,
even if compaction_alloc() cannot provide >0 order free pages,
migrate_pages() can split the source page and try to migrate the base
pages from the split. It can be a baseline and start point for adding
support for compacting >0 order folios.

Subject: mm/compaction: enable compacting >0 order folios.
Date: Mon, 22 Jan 2024 22:46:33 -0500
Patch series "Enable >0 order folio memory compaction", v2.
This patchset enables >0 order folio memory compaction, which is one of
the prerequisitions for large folio support[1].
I am aware that split free pages is necessary for folio migration in
compaction, since if >0 order free pages are never split and no order-0
free page is scanned, compaction will end prematurely due to migration
returns -ENOMEM. Free page split becomes a must instead of an
optimization.
Some applications from vm-scalability show different performance trends on
default LRU and CONFIG_LRU_GEN from patch 1 (split folio during
compaction), to patch 2 (folio migration during compaction), to patch 3
(folio migration during compaction with free page split). I am looking
into it.
lkp ncompare results (with >5% delta) for default LRU and CONFIG_LRU_GEN
are shown at the bottom (on a 8-CPU (Intel Xeon E5-2650 v4 @ 2.20GHz) 16G
VM).
Overview
========
To support >0 order folio compaction, the patchset changes how free pages
used for migration are kept during compaction. Free pages used to be
split into order-0 pages that are post allocation processed (i.e.,
PageBuddy flag cleared, page order stored in page->private is zeroed, and
page reference is set to 1). Now all free pages are kept in a MAX_ORDER+1
array of page lists based on their order without post allocation process.
When migrate_pages() asks for a new page, one of the free pages, based on
the requested page order, is then processed and given out.

This patch (of 3):
migrate_pages() supports >0 order folio migration and during compaction,
even if compaction_alloc() cannot provide >0 order free pages,
migrate_pages() can split the source page and try to migrate the base
pages from the split. It can be a baseline and start point for adding
support for compacting >0 order folios.
