Baolin Wang March 29, 2024, 6:56 a.m. UTC
Now the anonymous page allocation already supports multi-size THP (mTHP),
but the numa balancing still prohibits mTHP migration even though it is an
exclusive mapping, which is unreasonable.

Allow scanning mTHP:
Commit 859d4adc3415 ("mm: numa: do not trap faults on shared data section
pages") skips shared CoW pages' NUMA page migration to avoid shared data
segment migration. In addition, commit 80d47f5de5e3 ("mm: don't try to
NUMA-migrate COW pages that have other uses") change to use page_count()
to avoid GUP pages migration, that will also skip the mTHP numa scaning.
Theoretically, we can use folio_maybe_dma_pinned() to detect the GUP
issue, although there is still a GUP race, the issue seems to have been
resolved by commit 80d47f5de5e3. Meanwhile, use the folio_likely_mapped_shared()
to skip shared CoW pages though this is not a precise sharers count. To
check if the folio is shared, ideally we want to make sure every page is
mapped to the same process, but doing that seems expensive and using
the estimated mapcount seems can work when running autonuma benchmark.

Allow migrating mTHP:
As mentioned in the previous thread[1], large folios (including THP) are
more susceptible to false sharing issues among threads than 4K base page,
leading to pages ping-pong back and forth during numa balancing, which is
currently not easy to resolve. Therefore, as a start to support mTHP numa
balancing, we can follow the PMD mapped THP's strategy, that means we can
reuse the 2-stage filter in should_numa_migrate_memory() to check if the
mTHP is being heavily contended among threads (through checking the CPU id
and pid of the last access) to avoid false sharing at some degree. Thus,
we can restore all PTE maps upon the first hint page fault of a large folio
to follow the PMD mapped THP's strategy. In the future, we can continue to
optimize the NUMA balancing algorithm to avoid the false sharing issue with
large folios as much as possible.

We call vma_wants_manual_pte_write_upgrade() in do_numa_page() already.
It seems that we can make "ignore_writable = true" if
"vma_wants_manual_pte_write_upgrade() == false" in do_numa_page() to
remove one call.

Otherwise, the patchset LGTM, feel free to add

Maybe pass "unsigned long address, pte_t *ptep" to 
numa_rebuild_single_mapping(),
then, just call it here.

 From the original logics, we should also call pte_mkwrite() for the new 
mapping if the pte_write() is true while 
vma_wants_manual_pte_write_upgrade() is false.

But I can add a new boolean parameter for numa_rebuild_large_mapping() 
to remove the same function call.

Yes, sounds reasonable. Will do in next version.

Umm, IMO, folio_test_large() is more readable for me.
