On 17/08/2022 09:14, Huang Ying wrote: > The return value of move_pages() syscall is incorrect when counting > the remaining pages to be migrated. Hi Huang, Alistair, I've noticed that this patch from Huang has caused the mm/migration selftest (authored by Alistair) to start failing (see bisection log below). Of the 3 tests, migration.private_anon and migration.private_anon_thp continue to pass, but migration.shared_anon fails: # RUN migration.shared_anon ... Didn't migrate 1 pages # migration.c:167:shared_anon:Expected migrate(ptr, self->n1, self->n2) (-2) == 0 (0) # shared_anon: Test terminated by assertion # FAIL migration.shared_anon not ok 2 migration.shared_anon The failure occurs due to the return code of move_pages() and this patch has changed the return code handling in the kernel, so it makes sense: int migrate(uint64_t *ptr, int n1, int n2) { int ret, tmp; int status = 0; struct timespec ts1, ts2; if (clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &ts1)) return -1; while (1) { if (clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &ts2)) return -1; if (ts2.tv_sec - ts1.tv_sec >= RUNTIME) return 0; ret = move_pages(0, 1, (void **) &ptr, &n2, &status, MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL); if (ret) { if (ret > 0) printf("Didn't migrate %d pages\n", ret); <<<< HERE else perror("Couldn't migrate pages"); return -2; } tmp = n2; n2 = n1; n1 = tmp; } return 0; } I haven't looked any further and am not sure what the correct fix is. I wondered if either you might be able to offer a solution?

Thanks Ryan. If I'm understanding Huang's patch correctly then kernel versions without it would have returned a return code indicating that all pages were migrated (ie. none failed to migrate) even if they hadn't. Given I would have wrote and tested the test against the old buggy version it's probable that this test was always failing but the failure was undetected. The failure to migrate could be valid (although I'd expect at least some success). One improvement to the test would be to check that status code for the page as well and make sure it matches the return code. We would likely have caught the bug Huang fixed earlier then. Will take a look and see if I can improve the test. - Alistair Ryan Roberts <ryan.roberts@arm.com> writes: > On 17/08/2022 09:14, Huang Ying wrote: >> The return value of move_pages() syscall is incorrect when counting >> the remaining pages to be migrated. > > Hi Huang, Alistair, > > I've noticed that this patch from Huang has caused the mm/migration selftest (authored by Alistair) to start failing (see bisection log below). > > Of the 3 tests, migration.private_anon and migration.private_anon_thp continue to pass, but migration.shared_anon fails: > > > # RUN migration.shared_anon ... > Didn't migrate 1 pages > # migration.c:167:shared_anon:Expected migrate(ptr, self->n1, self->n2) (-2) == 0 (0) > # shared_anon: Test terminated by assertion > # FAIL migration.shared_anon > not ok 2 migration.shared_anon > > > The failure occurs due to the return code of move_pages() and this patch has changed the return code handling in the kernel, so it makes sense: > > > int migrate(uint64_t *ptr, int n1, int n2) > { > int ret, tmp; > int status = 0; > struct timespec ts1, ts2; > > if (clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &ts1)) > return -1; > > while (1) { > if (clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &ts2)) > return -1; > > if (ts2.tv_sec - ts1.tv_sec >= RUNTIME) > return 0; > > ret = move_pages(0, 1, (void **) &ptr, &n2, &status, > MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL); > if (ret) { > if (ret > 0) > printf("Didn't migrate %d pages\n", ret); <<<< HERE > else > perror("Couldn't migrate pages"); > return -2; > } > > tmp = n2; > n2 = n1; > n1 = tmp; > } > > return 0; > } > > > I haven't looked any further and am not sure what the correct fix is.
