memory-hotplug: fix zone stat mismatch

2012-10-09T07:22:59Z

During memory-hotplug, I found NR_ISOLATED_[ANON|FILE] are increasing, causing the kernel to hang. When the system doesn't have enough free pages, it enters reclaim but never reclaim any pages due to too_many_isolated()==true and loops forever. The cause is that when we do memory-hotadd after memory-remove, __zone_pcp_update() clears a zone's ZONE_STAT_ITEMS in setup_pageset() although the vm_stat_diff of all CPUs still have values. In addtion, when we offline all pages of the zone, we reset them in zone_pcp_reset without draining so we loss some zone stat item.

cma: count free CMA pages

2012-10-09T07:22:44Z

Add NR_FREE_CMA_PAGES counter to be later used for checking watermark in __zone_watermark_ok(). For simplicity and to avoid #ifdef hell make this counter always available (not only when CONFIG_CMA=y).

pg_data_t is zeroed before reaching free_area_init_core(), so remove the now unnecessary initializations. Signed-off-by: Minchan Kim Cc: Tejun Heo Cc: Ralf Baechle Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

mm: move enum vm_event_item into a standalone header file

2011-05-27T00:12:34Z

enums are problematic because they cannot be forward-declared: akpm2:/home/akpm> cat t.c enum foo; static inline void bar(enum foo f) { } akpm2:/home/akpm> gcc -c t.c t.c:4: error: parameter 1 ('f') has incomplete type So move the enum's definition into a standalone header file which can be used wherever its definition is needed.

mm, mem-hotplug: update pcp->stat_threshold when memory hotplug occur

2011-05-25T15:39:09Z

Currently, cpu hotplug updates pcp->stat_threshold, but memory hotplug doesn't. There is no reason for this.

mm: per-node vmstat: show proper vmstats

2011-05-25T15:39:07Z

commit 2ac390370a ("writeback: add /sys/devices/system/node//vmstat") added vmstat entry. But strangely it only show nr_written and nr_dirtied. # cat /sys/devices/system/node/node20/vmstat nr_written 0 nr_dirtied 0 Of course, It's not adequate.

mm: add VM counters for transparent hugepages

2011-04-14T23:06:55Z

I found it difficult to make sense of transparent huge pages without having any counters for its actions. Add some counters to vmstat for allocation of transparent hugepages and fallback to smaller pages. Optional patch, but useful for development and understanding the system.

mm: add __GFP_OTHER_NODE flag

2011-03-23T00:44:05Z

Add a new __GFP_OTHER_NODE flag to tell the low level numa statistics in zone_statistics() that an allocation is on behalf of another thread. This way the local and remote counters can be still correct, even when background daemons like khugepaged are changing memory mappings. This only affects the accounting, but I think it's worth doing that right to avoid confusing users. I first tried to just pass down the right node, but this required a lot of changes to pass down this parameter and at least one addition of a 10th argument to a 9 argument function. Using the flag is a lot less intrusive. Open: should be also used for migration?

mm: vmstat: use a single setter function and callback for adjusting percpu thresholds

2011-01-14T01:32:31Z

reduce_pgdat_percpu_threshold() and restore_pgdat_percpu_threshold() exist to adjust the per-cpu vmstat thresholds while kswapd is awake to avoid errors due to counter drift. The functions duplicate some code so this patch replaces them with a single set_pgdat_percpu_threshold() that takes a callback function to calculate the desired threshold as a parameter.
