2024-09-26memory tiers: use default_dram_perf_ref_source in log messageHuang Ying
Commit 3718c02dbd4c ("acpi, hmat: calculate abstract distance with HMAT") added a default_dram_perf_ref_source variable that was initialized but never used. This causes kmemleak to report the following memory leak: unreferenced object 0xff11000225a47b60 (size 16): comm "swapper/0", pid 1, jiffies 4294761654 hex dump (first 16 bytes): 41 43 50 49 20 48 4d 41 54 00 c1 4b 7d b7 75 7c ACPI HMAT..K}.u| backtrace (crc e6d0e7b2): [<ffffffff95d5afdb>] __kmalloc_node_track_caller_noprof+0x36b/0x440 [<ffffffff95c276d6>] kstrdup+0x36/0x60 [<ffffffff95dfabfa>] mt_set_default_dram_perf+0x23a/0x2c0 [<ffffffff9ad64733>] hmat_init+0x2b3/0x660 [<ffffffff95203cec>] do_one_initcall+0x11c/0x5c0 [<ffffffff9ac9cfc4>] do_initcalls+0x1b4/0x1f0 [<ffffffff9ac9d52e>] kernel_init_freeable+0x4ae/0x520 [<ffffffff97c789cc>] kernel_init+0x1c/0x150 [<ffffffff952aecd1>] ret_from_fork+0x31/0x70 [<ffffffff9520b18a>] ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 This reminds us that we forget to use the performance data source information.

2024-09-03memory tier: fix deadlock warning while onlining pagesYanfei Xu
commit 823430c8e9d9 ("memory tier: consolidate the initialization of memory tiers") introduces a locking change that use guard(mutex) to instead of mutex_lock/unlock() for memory_tier_lock. It unexpectedly expanded the locked region to include the hotplug_memory_notifier(), as a result, it triggers an locking dependency detected of ABBA deadlock. Exclude hotplug_memory_notifier() from the locked region to fixing it. The deadlock scenario is that when a memory online event occurs, the execution of memory notifier will access the read lock of the memory_chain.rwsem, then the reigistration of the memory notifier in memory_tier_init() acquires the write lock of the memory_chain.rwsem while holding memory_tier_lock. Then the memory online event continues to invoke the memory hotplug callback registered by memory_tier_init(). Since this callback tries to acquire the memory_tier_lock, a deadlock occurs. In fact, this deadlock can't happen because memory_tier_init() always executes before memory online events happen due to the subsys_initcall() has an higher priority than module_init().

2024-07-12memory tier: consolidate the initialization of memory tiersHo-Ren (Jack) Chuang
The current memory tier initialization process is distributed across two different functions, memory_tier_init() and memory_tier_late_init(). This design is hard to maintain. Thus, this patch is proposed to reduce the possible code paths by consolidating different initialization patches into one. The earlier discussion with Jonathan and Ying is listed here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240405150244.00004b49@Huawei.com/ If we want to put these two initializations together, they must be placed together in the later function. Because only at that time, the HMAT information will be ready, adist between nodes can be calculated, and memory tiering can be established based on the adist. So we position the initialization at memory_tier_init() to the memory_tier_late_init() call. Moreover, it's natural to keep memory_tier initialization in drivers at device_initcall() level. If we simply move the set_node_memory_tier() from memory_tier_init() to late_initcall(), it will result in HMAT not registering the mt_adistance_algorithm callback function, because set_node_memory_tier() is not performed during the memory tiering initialization phase, leading to a lack of correct default_dram information. Therefore, we introduced a nodemask to pass the information of the default DRAM nodes. The reason for not choosing to reuse default_dram_type->nodes is that it is not clean enough. So in the end, we use a __initdata variable, which is a variable that is released once initialization is complete, including both CPU and memory nodes for HMAT to iterate through.

2024-05-05memory tier: create CPUless memory tiers after obtaining HMAT infoHo-Ren (Jack) Chuang
The current implementation treats emulated memory devices, such as CXL1.1 type3 memory, as normal DRAM when they are emulated as normal memory (E820_TYPE_RAM). However, these emulated devices have different characteristics than traditional DRAM, making it important to distinguish them. Thus, we modify the tiered memory initialization process to introduce a delay specifically for CPUless NUMA nodes. This delay ensures that the memory tier initialization for these nodes is deferred until HMAT information is obtained during the boot process. Finally, demotion tables are recalculated at the end. * late_initcall(memory_tier_late_init); Some device drivers may have initialized memory tiers between `memory_tier_init()` and `memory_tier_late_init()`, potentially bringing online memory nodes and configuring memory tiers. They should be excluded in the late init. * Handle cases where there is no HMAT when creating memory tiers There is a scenario where a CPUless node does not provide HMAT information. If no HMAT is specified, it falls back to using the default DRAM tier. * Introduce another new lock `default_dram_perf_lock` for adist calculation In the current implementation, iterating through CPUlist nodes requires holding the `memory_tier_lock`. However, `mt_calc_adistance()` will end up trying to acquire the same lock, leading to a potential deadlock. Therefore, we propose introducing a standalone `default_dram_perf_lock` to protect `default_dram_perf_*`. This approach not only avoids deadlock but also prevents holding a large lock simultaneously. * Upgrade `set_node_memory_tier` to support additional cases, including default DRAM, late CPUless, and hot-plugged initializations. To cover hot-plugged memory nodes, `mt_calc_adistance()` and `mt_find_alloc_memory_type()` are moved into `set_node_memory_tier()` to handle cases where memtype is not initialized and where HMAT information is available. * Introduce `default_memory_types` for those memory types that are not initialized by device drivers. Because late initialized memory and default DRAM memory need to be managed, a default memory type is created for storing all memory types that are not initialized by device drivers and as a fallback.

2024-05-05memory tier: dax/kmem: introduce an abstract layer for finding, allocating, ↵Ho-Ren (Jack) Chuang
and putting memory types Patch series "Improved Memory Tier Creation for CPUless NUMA Nodes", v11. When a memory device, such as CXL1.1 type3 memory, is emulated as normal memory (E820_TYPE_RAM), the memory device is indistinguishable from normal DRAM in terms of memory tiering with the current implementation. The current memory tiering assigns all detected normal memory nodes to the same DRAM tier. This results in normal memory devices with different attributions being unable to be assigned to the correct memory tier, leading to the inability to migrate pages between different types of memory. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/PH0PR08MB7955E9F08CCB64F23963B5C3A860A@PH0PR08MB7955.namprd08.prod.outlook.com/T/ This patchset automatically resolves the issues. It delays the initialization of memory tiers for CPUless NUMA nodes until they obtain HMAT information and after all devices are initialized at boot time, eliminating the need for user intervention. If no HMAT is specified, it falls back to using `default_dram_type`. Example usecase: We have CXL memory on the host, and we create VMs with a new system memory device backed by host CXL memory. We inject CXL memory performance attributes through QEMU, and the guest now sees memory nodes with performance attributes in HMAT. With this change, we enable the guest kernel to construct the correct memory tiering for the memory nodes. This patch (of 2): Since different memory devices require finding, allocating, and putting memory types, these common steps are abstracted in this patch, enhancing the scalability and conciseness of the code.

2024-02-22mm/demotion: print demotion targetsLi Zhijian
Currently, when a demotion occurs, it will prioritize selecting a node from the preferred targets as the destination node for the demotion. If the preferred node does not meet the requirements, it will try from all the lower memory tier nodes until it finds a suitable demotion destination node or ultimately fails. However, the demotion target information isn't exposed to the users, especially the preferred target information, which relies on more factors. This makes it hard for users to understand the exact demotion behavior. Rather than having a new sysfs interface to expose this information, printing directly to kernel messages, just like the current page allocation fallback order does. A dmesg example with this patch is as follows: [ 0.704860] Demotion targets for Node 0: null [ 0.705456] Demotion targets for Node 1: null // node 2 is onlined [ 32.259775] Demotion targets for Node 0: perferred: 2, fallback: 2 [ 32.261290] Demotion targets for Node 1: perferred: 2, fallback: 2 [ 32.262726] Demotion targets for Node 2: null // node 3 is onlined [ 42.448809] Demotion targets for Node 0: perferred: 2, fallback: 2-3 [ 42.450704] Demotion targets for Node 1: perferred: 2, fallback: 2-3 [ 42.452556] Demotion targets for Node 2: perferred: 3, fallback: 3 [ 42.454136] Demotion targets for Node 3: null // node 4 is onlined [ 52.676833] Demotion targets for Node 0: perferred: 2, fallback: 2-4 [ 52.678735] Demotion targets for Node 1: perferred: 2, fallback: 2-4 [ 52.680493] Demotion targets for Node 2: perferred: 4, fallback: 3-4 [ 52.682154] Demotion targets for Node 3: null [ 52.683405] Demotion targets for Node 4: null // node 5 is onlined [ 62.931902] Demotion targets for Node 0: perferred: 2, fallback: 2-5 [ 62.938266] Demotion targets for Node 1: perferred: 5, fallback: 2-5 [ 62.943515] Demotion targets for Node 2: perferred: 4, fallback: 3-4 [ 62.947471] Demotion targets for Node 3: null [ 62.949908] Demotion targets for Node 4: null [ 62.952137] Demotion targets for Node 5: perferred: 3, fallback: 3-4 Regarding this requirement, we have previously discussed [1].

2023-12-22base/node / acpi: Change 'node_hmem_attrs' to 'access_coordinates'Dave Jiang
Dan Williams suggested changing the struct 'node_hmem_attrs' to 'access_coordinates' [1]. The struct is a container of r/w-latency and r/w-bandwidth numbers. Moving forward, this container will also be used by CXL to store the performance characteristics of each link hop in the PCIE/CXL topology. So, where node_hmem_attrs is just the access parameters of a memory-node, access_coordinates applies more broadly to hardware topology characteristics. The observation is that seemed like an exercise in having the application identify "where" it falls on a spectrum of bandwidth and latency needs. For the tuple of read/write-latency and read/write-bandwidth, "coordinates" is not a perfect fit. Sometimes it is just conveying values in isolation and not a "location" relative to other performance points, but in the end this data is used to identify the performance operation point of a given memory-node.

Previously, a fixed abstract distance MEMTIER_DEFAULT_DAX_ADISTANCE is used for slow memory type in kmem driver. This limits the usage of kmem driver, for example, it cannot be used for HBM (high bandwidth memory). So, we use the general abstract distance calculation mechanism in kmem drivers to get more accurate abstract distance on systems with proper support. The original MEMTIER_DEFAULT_DAX_ADISTANCE is used as fallback only. Now, multiple memory types may be managed by kmem. These memory types are put into the "kmem_memory_types" list and protected by kmem_memory_type_lock.

2023-10-16acpi, hmat: calculate abstract distance with HMATHuang Ying
A memory tiering abstract distance calculation algorithm based on ACPI HMAT is implemented. The basic idea is as follows. The performance attributes of system default DRAM nodes are recorded as the base line. Whose abstract distance is MEMTIER_ADISTANCE_DRAM. Then, the ratio of the abstract distance of a memory node (target) to MEMTIER_ADISTANCE_DRAM is scaled based on the ratio of the performance attributes of the node to that of the default DRAM nodes. The functions to record the read/write latency/bandwidth of the default DRAM nodes and calculate abstract distance according to read/write latency/bandwidth ratio will be used by CXL CDAT (Coherent Device Attribute Table) and other memory device drivers. So, they are put in memory-tiers.c.

2023-10-16memory tiering: add abstract distance calculation algorithms managementHuang Ying
Patch series "memory tiering: calculate abstract distance based on ACPI HMAT", v4. We have the explicit memory tiers framework to manage systems with multiple types of memory, e.g., DRAM in DIMM slots and CXL memory devices. Where, same kind of memory devices will be grouped into memory types, then put into memory tiers. To describe the performance of a memory type, abstract distance is defined. Which is in direct proportion to the memory latency and inversely proportional to the memory bandwidth. To keep the code as simple as possible, fixed abstract distance is used in dax/kmem to describe slow memory such as Optane DCPMM. To support more memory types, in this series, we added the abstract distance calculation algorithm management mechanism, provided a algorithm implementation based on ACPI HMAT, and used the general abstract distance calculation interface in dax/kmem driver. So, dax/kmem can support HBM (high bandwidth memory) in addition to the original Optane DCPMM. This patch (of 4): The abstract distance may be calculated by various drivers, such as ACPI HMAT, CXL CDAT, etc. While it may be used by various code which hot-add memory node, such as dax/kmem etc. To decouple the algorithm users and the providers, the abstract distance calculation algorithms management mechanism is implemented in this patch. It provides interface for the providers to register the implementation, and interface for the users. Multiple algorithm implementations can cooperate via calculating abstract distance for different memory nodes. The preference of algorithm implementations can be specified via priority (notifier_block.priority).

For example, in my system, $ cat /sys/devices/system/node/node0/cpumap f,ffffffff $ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/topology/core_cpus 0,00100004 $ cat cat /sys/devices/system/node/node0/cpulist 0-35 $ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/topology/core_cpus_list 2,20 It looks reasonable to use "nodemap" for node mask and "nodelist" for node list. So, rename the attribute to follow the naming convention.

2022-09-26mm/demotion: demote pages according to allocation fallback orderJagdish Gediya
Currently, a higher tier node can only be demoted to selected nodes on the next lower tier as defined by the demotion path. This strict demotion order does not work in all use cases (e.g. some use cases may want to allow cross-socket demotion to another node in the same demotion tier as a fallback when the preferred demotion node is out of space). This demotion order is also inconsistent with the page allocation fallback order when all the nodes in a higher tier are out of space: The page allocation can fall back to any node from any lower tier, whereas the demotion order doesn't allow that currently. This patch adds support to get all the allowed demotion targets for a memory tier. demote_page_list() function is now modified to utilize this allowed node mask as the fallback allocation mask.

2022-09-26mm/demotion: add support for explicit memory tiersAneesh Kumar K.V
Patch series "mm/demotion: Memory tiers and demotion", v15. The current kernel has the basic memory tiering support: Inactive pages on a higher tier NUMA node can be migrated (demoted) to a lower tier NUMA node to make room for new allocations on the higher tier NUMA node. Frequently accessed pages on a lower tier NUMA node can be migrated (promoted) to a higher tier NUMA node to improve the performance. In the current kernel, memory tiers are defined implicitly via a demotion path relationship between NUMA nodes, which is created during the kernel initialization and updated when a NUMA node is hot-added or hot-removed. The current implementation puts all nodes with CPU into the highest tier, and builds the tier hierarchy tier-by-tier by establishing the per-node demotion targets based on the distances between nodes. This current memory tier kernel implementation needs to be improved for several important use cases: * The current tier initialization code always initializes each memory-only NUMA node into a lower tier. But a memory-only NUMA node may have a high performance memory device (e.g. a DRAM-backed memory-only node on a virtual machine) and that should be put into a higher tier. * The current tier hierarchy always puts CPU nodes into the top tier. But on a system with HBM (e.g. GPU memory) devices, these memory-only HBM NUMA nodes should be in the top tier, and DRAM nodes with CPUs are better to be placed into the next lower tier. * Also because the current tier hierarchy always puts CPU nodes into the top tier, when a CPU is hot-added (or hot-removed) and triggers a memory node from CPU-less into a CPU node (or vice versa), the memory tier hierarchy gets changed, even though no memory node is added or removed. This can make the tier hierarchy unstable and make it difficult to support tier-based memory accounting. * A higher tier node can only be demoted to nodes with shortest distance on the next lower tier as defined by the demotion path, not any other node from any lower tier. This strict, demotion order does not work in all use cases (e.g. some use cases may want to allow cross-socket demotion to another node in the same demotion tier as a fallback when the preferred demotion node is out of space), and has resulted in the feature request for an interface to override the system-wide, per-node demotion order from the userspace. This demotion order is also inconsistent with the page allocation fallback order when all the nodes in a higher tier are out of space: The page allocation can fall back to any node from any lower tier, whereas the demotion order doesn't allow that. This patch series make the creation of memory tiers explicit under the control of device driver. Memory Tier Initialization ========================== Linux kernel presents memory devices as NUMA nodes and each memory device is of a specific type. The memory type of a device is represented by its abstract distance. A memory tier corresponds to a range of abstract distance. This allows for classifying memory devices with a specific performance range into a memory tier. By default, all memory nodes are assigned to the default tier with abstract distance 512. A device driver can move its memory nodes from the default tier. For example, PMEM can move its memory nodes below the default tier, whereas GPU can move its memory nodes above the default tier. The kernel initialization code makes the decision on which exact tier a memory node should be assigned to based on the requests from the device drivers as well as the memory device hardware information provided by the firmware. Hot-adding/removing CPUs doesn't affect memory tier hierarchy. This patch (of 10): In the current kernel, memory tiers are defined implicitly via a demotion path relationship between NUMA nodes, which is created during the kernel initialization and updated when a NUMA node is hot-added or hot-removed. The current implementation puts all nodes with CPU into the highest tier, and builds the tier hierarchy by establishing the per-node demotion targets based on the distances between nodes. This current memory tier kernel implementation needs to be improved for several important use cases, The current tier initialization code always initializes each memory-only NUMA node into a lower tier. But a memory-only NUMA node may have a high performance memory device (e.g. a DRAM-backed memory-only node on a virtual machine) that should be put into a higher tier. The current tier hierarchy always puts CPU nodes into the top tier. But on a system with HBM or GPU devices, the memory-only NUMA nodes mapping these devices should be in the top tier, and DRAM nodes with CPUs are better to be placed into the next lower tier. With current kernel higher tier node can only be demoted to nodes with shortest distance on the next lower tier as defined by the demotion path, not any other node from any lower tier. This strict, demotion order does not work in all use cases (e.g. some use cases may want to allow cross-socket demotion to another node in the same demotion tier as a fallback when the preferred demotion node is out of space), This demotion order is also inconsistent with the page allocation fallback order when all the nodes in a higher tier are out of space: The page allocation can fall back to any node from any lower tier, whereas the demotion order doesn't allow that. This patch series address the above by defining memory tiers explicitly. Linux kernel presents memory devices as NUMA nodes and each memory device is of a specific type. The memory type of a device is represented by its abstract distance. A memory tier corresponds to a range of abstract distance. This allows for classifying memory devices with a specific performance range into a memory tier. This patch configures the range/chunk size to be 128. The default DRAM abstract distance is 512. We can have 4 memory tiers below the default DRAM with abstract distance range 0 - 127, 127 - 255, 256- 383, 384 - 511. Faster memory devices can be placed in these faster(higher) memory tiers. Slower memory devices like persistent memory will have abstract distance higher than the default DRAM level.
