Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] Allow migrate on protnone reference with MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY policy
Date: Thu, 21 Mar 2024 06:29:49 -0500

This patchset is to optimize the cross-socket memory access with
MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY policy.

To test this patch we ran the following test on a 3 node system.
 Node 0 - 2GB   - Tier 1
 Node 1 - 11GB  - Tier 1
 Node 6 - 10GB  - Tier 2

Below changes are made to memcached to set the memory policy,
It select Node0 and Node1 as preferred nodes.

   #include <numaif.h>
   #include <numa.h>

    unsigned long nodemask;
    int ret;

    nodemask = 0x03;
    ret = set_mempolicy(MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY | MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING,
                                               &nodemask, 10);
    /* If MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING isn't supported,
     * fall back to MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY */
    if (ret < 0 && errno == EINVAL){
       printf("set mem policy normal\n");
        ret = set_mempolicy(MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY, &nodemask, 10);
    }
    if (ret < 0) {
       perror("Failed to call set_mempolicy");
       exit(-1);
    }

Test Procedure:
===============
1. Make sure memory tiering and demotion are enabled.
2. Start memcached.

   # ./memcached -b 100000 -m 204800 -u root -c 1000000 -t 7
       -d -s "/tmp/memcached.sock"

3. Run memtier_benchmark to store 3200000 keys.

  #./memtier_benchmark -S "/tmp/memcached.sock" --protocol=memcache_binary
    --threads=1 --pipeline=1 --ratio=1:0 --key-pattern=S:S --key-minimum=1
    --key-maximum=3200000 -n allkeys -c 1 -R -x 1 -d 1024

4. Start a memory eater on node 0 and 1. This will demote all memcached
   pages to node 6.
5. Make sure all the memcached pages got demoted to lower tier by reading
   /proc/<memcaced PID>/numa_maps.

    # cat /proc/2771/numa_maps
     ---
    default anon=1009 dirty=1009 active=0 N6=1009 kernelpagesize_kB=64
    default anon=1009 dirty=1009 active=0 N6=1009 kernelpagesize_kB=64
     ---

6. Kill memory eater.
7. Read the pgpromote_success counter.
8. Start reading the keys by running memtier_benchmark.

  #./memtier_benchmark -S "/tmp/memcached.sock" --protocol=memcache_binary
   --pipeline=1 --distinct-client-seed --ratio=0:3 --key-pattern=R:R
   --key-minimum=1 --key-maximum=3200000 -n allkeys
   --threads=64 -c 1 -R -x 6

9. Read the pgpromote_success counter.

Test Result Analysis:
=====================
1. With patch we could observe pages are getting promoted.
2. Memtier-benchmark results shows that, with the patch,
   performance has increased more than 50%.

 Ops/sec without fix -  305792.03
 Ops/sec with fix    -  521942.24

Changes:
V3:
- Added "* @vmf: structure describing the fault" comment for
  mpol_misplaced() to fix the warning.	
https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202403202229.WZeAnUuO-lkp@intel.com/
v2:
- Rebased on latest upstream (v6.8-rc7)
- Used 'numa_node_id()' to get the current execution node ID, Added
  'lockdep_assert_held' to make sure that the 'mpol_misplaced()' is
  called with ptl held.
- The migration condition has been updated; now, migration will only
  occur if the execution node is present in the policy nodemask.

-v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/9c3f7b743477560d1c5b12b8c111a584a2cc92ee.1708097962.git.donettom@linux.ibm.com/#t
