From: Yang Shi <[email protected]>
The migrate_pages() returns the number of pages that were not migrated,
or an error code. When returning an error code, there is no way to know
how many pages were migrated or not migrated.
In the following patch, migrate_pages() is used to demote pages to PMEM
node, we need account how many pages are reclaimed (demoted) since page
reclaim behavior depends on this. Add *nr_succeeded parameter to make
migrate_pages() return how many pages are demoted successfully for all
cases.

Note: Yang Shi originally wrote the patch, thus the SoB. There was
also a Reviewed-by provided since there were some modifications made
to this after the original work.
Changes since 20210302:
* Fix definition of CONFIG_MIGRATION=n stub migrate_pages(). Its
parameters were wrong, but oddly enough did not generate any
compile errors.
Changes since 20200122:
* Fix migrate_pages() to manipulate nr_succeeded *value*
rather than the pointer.

A small suggestion: Given that migrate_pages() requires that
*nr_succeeded should be initialized to 0 when it is called due to its
use of *nr_succeeded in count_vm_events() and trace_mm_migrate_pages(),
it would be less error-prone if migrate_pages() initializes
*nr_succeeded itself.

That's a good point, especially if a caller made multiple
migrate_pages() calls without resetting it, which a number of callers
do. That could really have caused some interesting problems. Thanks
for catching that!
I'll do what you suggested.

It seems that reclaiming is the only user who cared about how many pages

And pass only a valid pointer from demote_page_list() and NULL from all

I was just wondered after all those "unsigned int nr_succedded" in all
other functions.
This would also solve the "be careful to initialize nr_succedded"
problem?

Thanks, Oscar. Yes, kind of. But we have to remember to initialize
"nr_succedded" pointer properly for every migrate_pages() callsite,
right? And it doesn't prevent from returning wrong value if
migrate_pages() is called multiple times by one caller although there
might be not such case (calls migrate_pages() multiple times and care
about nr_succeded) for now.
So IMHO I do prefer Wei's suggestion to have migrate_pages()
initialize nr_succeeded. This seems simpler.

Hi Yang,
I might be missing something but AFAICS you only need to initialize
nr_succeded pointer where it matters.
The local nr_succeeded in migrate_pages() doesn't go, and so it gets
initialized every time you call in it to 0.
And if you pass a valid pointer, *ret_succeeded == nr_succedeed.
I am talking about this (not even compile-tested):

Of course, to give a full context:
+static unsigned int demote_page_list(struct list_head *demote_pages,
+ struct pglist_data *pgdat,
+ struct scan_control *sc)
+{
+ int target_nid = next_demotion_node(pgdat->node_id);
+ unsigned int nr_succeeded = 0;
+ int err;
+
+ if (list_empty(demote_pages))
+ return 0;
+
+ /* Demotion ignores all cpuset and mempolicy settings */
+ err = migrate_pages(demote_pages, alloc_demote_page, NULL,
+ target_nid, MIGRATE_ASYNC, MR_DEMOTION,
+ &nr_succeeded);
+
+ return nr_succeeded;
+}
So, demote_page_list() would be the only function that passes a valid
pointer, instead of NULL, because it cares about the nr_succeeded.

Thanks a lot for the example code. You didn't miss anything. At first
glance, I thought your suggestion seemed neater. Actually I
misunderstood what Dave said about "That could really have caused some
interesting problems." with multiple calls to migrate_pages(). I was
thinking about:
unsigned long foo()
{
unsigned long *ret_succeeded;
migrate_pages(..., ret_succeeded);
migrate_pages(..., ret_succeeded);
return *ret_succeeded;
}
Of course, this is a hypothetical case now. We don't have to care
about it at all.

But that would not be a problem as well. I mean I am not sure what is
foo() supposed to do.
I assume is supposed to return the *total* number of pages that were
migrated?
Then could do something like:
unsigned long foo()
{
unsigned long ret_succeeded;
unsigned long total_succeeded = 0;
migrate_pages(..., &ret_succeeded);
total_succeeded += ret_succeeded;
migrate_pages(..., &ret_succeeded);
total_succeeded += ret_succeeded;
return *total_succeeded;
}
But AFAICS, you would have to do that with Wei Xu's version and with
mine, no difference there.
IIUC, Dave's concern was that nr_succeeded was only set to 0 at the beginning
of the function, and never reset back, which means, we would carry the
sum of previous nr_succeeded instead of the nr_succeeded in that round.
That would be misleading for e.g: reclaim in case we were to call
migrate_pages() several times, as instead of a delta value, nr_succeeded
would accumulate.
But that won't happen neither with Wei Xu's version nor with mine.

I agree that it is a good further improvement to make nr_succeeded an optional
output argument of migrate_pages() given that most callers don't need it. IMHO,
the most important thing in this matter is to ensure that nr_succeeded only
returns (when its return value is needed) the successfully migrated
pages in this
round and doesn't accumulate. This is addressed by both proposals.

It is because nr_succeeded is reset for each migrate_pages() call.
You could do "*ret_succeeded += nr_succeeded" if we want an
accumulated counter, then you don't have to add total_succeeded. And
since nr_succeeded is reset for each migrate_pages() call, so both vm
counter and trace point are happy.

I think the most straightforward concern is the vm counter and trace
point in migrate_pages(), if migrate_pages() is called multiple times
we may see messed up counters if nr_succeeded is not reset properly.
Of course both your and Wei's suggestion solve this problem.
But if we have usecase which returns nr_succeeded and call
migrate_pages() multiple times, I think we do want to return
accumulated value IMHO.

No, fine to me.
