Our current global sysctl will try its best to put hugepages equally on each node, but htat may not always be desired. This allows the admin to control the layout of hugepage allocation at a finer level (while not breaking the existing interface). Add callbacks in the sysfs node registration and unregistration functions into hugetlb to add the nr_hugepages attribute, which is a no-op if !NUMA or !HUGETLB. This new interface requires some changes to the nr_hugepages sysctl as well. We update max_huge_pages via a call to set_max_huge_pages() with the value written into the nr_hugepages sysctl, even when only reading. This is not very efficient. More importantly when nr_hugepages can be altered by other interfaces (per-node sysfs attributes), this side effect of reading can invoke set_max_huge_pages with a value less than nr_hugepages, resulting in hugepages being freed! Rather than relying on set_max_huge_pages() at all in the read-path, update max_huge_pages (which is still the syctl variable) to the appropriate value on reads (before invoking the generic sysctl handler) and call set_max_huge_pages() on writes (after invoking the generic sysctl handler). Thanks to Dean Luick for finding some bugs in my previous posting of the patch. Signed-off-by: Nishanth Aravamudan --- Same patch as before, but an RFC this time to decide if /sys/devices/system/node is where we want to be putting the pool allocators. As discussed in a separate thread with Nick ("[patch 00/17] multi size, and giatn hugetlb page support, 1GB hugetlb for x86" on linux-mm), perhaps a better location would be /sys/kernel, but then we'd need to replicate a bit of the NUMA layout into /sys/kernel. However, the advantage would be when we put the multiple hugepage pool allocation interfaces in /sys/kernel, all of the hugetlb related interfaces will be in one place (as presumably we'll want per-node control on a per-pool basis!). diff --git a/drivers/base/node.c b/drivers/base/node.c index 4c2caff..96aa493 100644 --- a/drivers/base/node.c +++ b/drivers/base/node.c @@ -154,6 +154,7 @@ int register_node(struct node *node, int num, struct node *parent) sysdev_create_file(&node->sysdev, &attr_meminfo); sysdev_create_file(&node->sysdev, &attr_numastat); sysdev_create_file(&node->sysdev, &attr_distance); + hugetlb_register_node(node); } return error; } @@ -171,6 +172,7 @@ void unregister_node(struct node *node) sysdev_remove_file(&node->sysdev, &attr_meminfo); sysdev_remove_file(&node->sysdev, &attr_numastat); sysdev_remove_file(&node->sysdev, &attr_distance); + hugetlb_unregister_node(node); sysdev_unregister(&node->sysdev); } diff --git a/include/linux/hugetlb.h b/include/linux/hugetlb.h index a79e80b..ac8c8d9 100644 --- a/include/linux/hugetlb.h +++ b/include/linux/hugetlb.h @@ -6,7 +6,9 @@ #ifdef CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE #include +#include #include +#include #include #include @@ -27,6 +29,13 @@ void __unmap_hugepage_range(struct vm_area_struct *, unsigned long, unsigned lon int hugetlb_prefault(struct address_space *, struct vm_area_struct *); int hugetlb_report_meminfo(char *); int hugetlb_report_node_meminfo(int, char *); +#ifdef CONFIG_NUMA +int hugetlb_register_node(struct node *); +void hugetlb_unregister_node(struct node *); +#else +#define hugetlb_register_node(node) do {} while (0) +#define hugetlb_unregister_node(node) do {} while (0) +#endif unsigned long hugetlb_total_pages(void); int hugetlb_fault(struct mm_struct *mm, struct vm_area_struct *vma, unsigned long address, int write_access); @@ -70,6 +79,8 @@ static inline unsigned long hugetlb_total_pages(void) #define unmap_hugepage_range(vma, start, end) BUG() #define hugetlb_report_meminfo(buf) 0 #define hugetlb_report_node_meminfo(n, buf) 0 +#define hugetlb_register_node(node) do {} while (0) +#define hugetlb_unregister_node(node) do {} while (0) #define follow_huge_pmd(mm, addr, pmd, write) NULL #define prepare_hugepage_range(addr,len) (-EINVAL) #define pmd_huge(x) 0 diff --git a/mm/hugetlb.c b/mm/hugetlb.c index 8faaa16..d35b087 100644 --- a/mm/hugetlb.c +++ b/mm/hugetlb.c @@ -562,7 +562,6 @@ static unsigned int cpuset_mems_nr(unsigned int *array) return nr; } -#ifdef CONFIG_SYSCTL #ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM static void try_to_free_low_node(unsigned long count, int nid) { @@ -578,7 +577,14 @@ static void try_to_free_low_node(unsigned long count, int nid) free_huge_pages_node[nid]--; } } +#else +static inline void try_to_free_low_node(unsigned long count, int nid) +{ +} +#endif +#ifdef CONFIG_SYSCTL +#ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM static void try_to_free_low(unsigned long count) { int i; @@ -590,18 +596,15 @@ static void try_to_free_low(unsigned long count) } } #else -static inline void try_to_free_low_node(unsigned long count, int nid) -{ -} static inline void try_to_free_low(unsigned long count) { } #endif #define persistent_huge_pages (nr_huge_pages - surplus_huge_pages) -static unsigned long set_max_huge_pages(unsigned long count) +static void set_max_huge_pages(unsigned long count) { - unsigned long min_count, ret; + unsigned long min_count; /* * Increase the pool size @@ -664,17 +667,21 @@ static unsigned long set_max_huge_pages(unsigned long count) break; } out: - ret = persistent_huge_pages; spin_unlock(&hugetlb_lock); - return ret; } int hugetlb_sysctl_handler(struct ctl_table *table, int write, struct file *file, void __user *buffer, size_t *length, loff_t *ppos) { + if (!write) { + spin_lock(&hugetlb_lock); + max_huge_pages = persistent_huge_pages; + spin_unlock(&hugetlb_lock); + } proc_doulongvec_minmax(table, write, file, buffer, length, ppos); - max_huge_pages = set_max_huge_pages(max_huge_pages); + if (write) + set_max_huge_pages(max_huge_pages); return 0; } @@ -729,6 +736,115 @@ int hugetlb_report_node_meminfo(int nid, char *buf) nid, surplus_huge_pages_node[nid]); } +#ifdef CONFIG_NUMA +static ssize_t hugetlb_read_nr_hugepages_node(struct sys_device *dev, + char *buf) +{ + return sprintf(buf, "%u\n", nr_huge_pages_node[dev->id]); +} + +#define persistent_huge_pages_node(nid) \ + (nr_huge_pages_node[nid] - surplus_huge_pages_node[nid]) +static ssize_t hugetlb_write_nr_hugepages_node(struct sys_device *dev, + const char *buf, size_t count) +{ + int nid = dev->id; + unsigned long target; + unsigned long free_on_other_nodes; + unsigned long nr_huge_pages_req = simple_strtoul(buf, NULL, 10); + + /* + * Increase the pool size on the node + * First take pages out of surplus state.
