mm/thp: check and bail out if page in deferred queue already
Kernel build regression with LLVM was reported here: https://lore.kernel.org/all/Y1GCYXGtEVZbcv%[email protected]/ with commit f35b5d7d676e ("mm: align larger anonymous mappings on THP boundaries"). And the commit f35b5d7d676e was reverted. It turned out the regression is related with madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) was used by ld.lld. But with none PMD_SIZE aligned parameter len. trace-bpfcc captured: 531607 531732 ld.lld do_madvise.part.0 start: 0x7feca9000000, len: 0x7fb000, behavior: 0x4 531607 531793 ld.lld do_madvise.part.0 start: 0x7fec86a00000, len: 0x7fb000, behavior: 0x4 If the underneath physical page is THP, the madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) can trigger split_queue_lock contention raised significantly. perf showed following data: 14.85% 0.00% ld.lld [kernel.kallsyms] [k] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe 11.52% entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe do_syscall_64 __x64_sys_madvise do_madvise.part.0 zap_page_range unmap_single_vma unmap_page_range page_remove_rmap deferred_split_huge_page __lock_text_start native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath If THP can't be removed from rmap as whole THP, partial THP will be removed from rmap by removing sub-pages from rmap. Even the THP head page is added to deferred queue already, the split_queue_lock will be acquired and check whether the THP head page is in the queue already. Thus, the contention of split_queue_lock is raised. Before acquire split_queue_lock, check and bail out early if the THP head page is in the queue already. The checking without holding split_queue_lock could race with deferred_split_scan, but it doesn't impact the correctness here.
