Vladimir Davydov 33c3fc71c8 mm: introduce idle page tracking
Knowing the portion of memory that is not used by a certain application or
memory cgroup (idle memory) can be useful for partitioning the system
efficiently, e.g.  by setting memory cgroup limits appropriately.
Currently, the only means to estimate the amount of idle memory provided
by the kernel is /proc/PID/{clear_refs,smaps}: the user can clear the
access bit for all pages mapped to a particular process by writing 1 to
clear_refs, wait for some time, and then count smaps:Referenced.  However,
this method has two serious shortcomings:

 - it does not count unmapped file pages
 - it affects the reclaimer logic

To overcome these drawbacks, this patch introduces two new page flags,
Idle and Young, and a new sysfs file, /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap.
A page's Idle flag can only be set from userspace by setting bit in
/sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap at the offset corresponding to the page,
and it is cleared whenever the page is accessed either through page tables
(it is cleared in page_referenced() in this case) or using the read(2)
system call (mark_page_accessed()). Thus by setting the Idle flag for
pages of a particular workload, which can be found e.g.  by reading
/proc/PID/pagemap, waiting for some time to let the workload access its
working set, and then reading the bitmap file, one can estimate the amount
of pages that are not used by the workload.

The Young page flag is used to avoid interference with the memory
reclaimer.  A page's Young flag is set whenever the Access bit of a page
table entry pointing to the page is cleared by writing to the bitmap file.
If page_referenced() is called on a Young page, it will add 1 to its
return value, therefore concealing the fact that the Access bit was
cleared.

Note, since there is no room for extra page flags on 32 bit, this feature
uses extended page flags when compiled on 32 bit.

/*
* struct page extension
*
* This is the feature to manage memory for extended data per page.
*
* Until now, we must modify struct page itself to store extra data per page.
* This requires rebuilding the kernel and it is really time consuming process.
* And, sometimes, rebuild is impossible due to third party module dependency.
* At last, enlarging struct page could cause un-wanted system behaviour change.
*
* This feature is intended to overcome above mentioned problems. This feature
* allocates memory for extended data per page in certain place rather than
* the struct page itself. This memory can be accessed by the accessor
* functions provided by this code. During the boot process, it checks whether
* allocation of huge chunk of memory is needed or not. If not, it avoids
* allocating memory at all. With this advantage, we can include this feature
* into the kernel in default and can avoid rebuild and solve related problems.
*
* To help these things to work well, there are two callbacks for clients. One
* is the need callback which is mandatory if user wants to avoid useless
* memory allocation at boot-time. The other is optional, init callback, which
* is used to do proper initialization after memory is allocated.
*
* The need callback is used to decide whether extended memory allocation is
* needed or not. Sometimes users want to deactivate some features in this
* boot and extra memory would be unneccessary. In this case, to avoid
* allocating huge chunk of memory, each clients represent their need of
* extra memory through the need callback. If one of the need callbacks
* returns true, it means that someone needs extra memory so that
* page extension core should allocates memory for page extension. If
* none of need callbacks return true, memory isn't needed at all in this boot
* and page extension core can skip to allocate memory. As result,
* none of memory is wasted.
*
* The init callback is used to do proper initialization after page extension
* is completely initialized. In sparse memory system, extra memory is
* allocated some time later than memmap is allocated. In other words, lifetime
* of memory for page extension isn't same with memmap for struct page.
* Therefore, clients can't store extra data until page extension is
* initialized, even if pages are allocated and used freely. This could
* cause inadequate state of extra data per page, so, to prevent it, client
* can utilize this callback to initialize the state of it correctly.
