Subject: Transcendent memory ("tmem") for Linux
From: http://xenbits.xensource.com/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg (tip 908:baeb818cd2dc)
Patch-mainline: n/a
Tmem, when called from a tmem-capable (paravirtualized) guest, makes
use of otherwise unutilized ("fallow") memory to create and manage
pools of pages that can be accessed from the guest either as
"ephemeral" pages or as "persistent" pages. In either case, the pages
are not directly addressible by the guest, only copied to and fro via
the tmem interface. Ephemeral pages are a nice place for a guest to
put recently evicted clean pages that it might need again; these pages
can be reclaimed synchronously by Xen for other guests or other uses.
Persistent pages are a nice place for a guest to put "swap" pages to
avoid sending them to disk. These pages retain data as long as the
guest lives, but count against the guest memory allocation.
This patch contains the Linux paravirtualization changes to
complement the tmem Xen patch (xen-unstable c/s 19646). It
implements "precache" (ext3 only as of now), "preswap",
and limited "shared precache" (ocfs2 only as of now) support.
CONFIG options are required to turn on
the support (but in this patch they default to "y"). If
the underlying Xen does not have tmem support or has it
turned off, this is sensed early to avoid nearly all
hypercalls.
Lots of useful prose about tmem can be found at

+Normal memory is directly addressable by the kernel, of a known
+normally-fixed size, synchronously accessible, and persistent (though
+not across a reboot).
+
+What if there was a class of memory that is of unknown and dynamically
+variable size, is addressable only indirectly by the kernel, can be
+configured either as persistent or as "ephemeral" (meaning it will be
+around for awhile, but might disappear without warning), and is still
+fast enough to be synchronously accessible?
+
+We call this latter class "transcendent memory" and it provides an
+interesting opportunity to more efficiently utilize RAM in a virtualized
+environment. However this "memory but not really memory" may also have
+applications in NON-virtualized environments, such as hotplug-memory
+deletion, SSDs, and page cache compression. Others have suggested ideas
+such as allowing use of highmem memory without a highmem kernel, or use
+of spare video memory.
+
+Transcendent memory, or "tmem" for short, provides a well-defined API to
+access this unusual class of memory. (A summary of the API is provided
+below.) The basic operations are page-copy-based and use a flexible
+object-oriented addressing mechanism. Tmem assumes that some "privileged
+entity" is capable of executing tmem requests and storing pages of data;
+this entity is currently a hypervisor and operations are performed via
+hypercalls, but the entity could be a kernel policy, or perhaps a
+"memory node" in a cluster of blades connected by a high-speed
+interconnect such as hypertransport or QPI.
+
+Since tmem is not directly accessible and because page copying is done
+to/from physical pageframes, it more suitable for in-kernel memory needs
+than for userland applications. However, there may be yet undiscovered
+userland possibilities.
+
+With the tmem concept outlined vaguely and its broader potential hinted,
+we will overview two existing examples of how tmem can be used by the
+kernel.
+
+"Cleancache" can be thought of as a page-granularity victim cache for clean
+pages that the kernel's pageframe replacement algorithm (PFRA) would like
+to keep around, but can't since there isn't enough memory. So when the
+PFRA "evicts" a page, it first puts it into the cleancache via a call to
+tmem. And any time a filesystem reads a page from disk, it first attempts
+to get the page from cleancache. If it's there, a disk access is eliminated.
+If not, the filesystem just goes to the disk like normal. Cleancache is
+"ephemeral" so whether a page is kept in cleancache (between the "put" and
+the "get") is dependent on a number of factors that are invisible to
+the kernel.
+
+"Frontswap" is so named because it can be thought of as the opposite of
+a "backing store". Frontswap IS persistent, but for various reasons may not
+always be available for use, again due to factors that may not be visible to
+the kernel. (But, briefly, if the kernel is being "good" and has shared its
+resources nicely, then it will be able to use frontswap, else it will not.)
+Once a page is put, a get on the page will always succeed. So when the
+kernel finds itself in a situation where it needs to swap out a page, it
+first attempts to use frontswap. If the put works, a disk write and
+(usually) a disk read are avoided. If it doesn't, the page is written
+to swap as usual. Unlike cleancache, whether a page is stored in frontswap
+vs swap is recorded in kernel data structures, so when a page needs to
+be fetched, the kernel does a get if it is in frontswap and reads from
+swap if it is not in frontswap.
+
+Both cleancache and frontswap may be optionally compressed, trading off 2x
+space reduction vs 10x performance for access. Cleancache also has a
+sharing feature, which allows different nodes in a "virtual cluster"
+to share a local page cache.
+
+Tmem has some similarity to IBM's Collaborative Memory Management, but
+creates more of a partnership between the kernel and the "privileged
+entity" and is not very invasive. Tmem may be applicable for KVM and
+containers; there is some disagreement on the extent of its value.
+Tmem is highly complementary to ballooning (aka page granularity hot
+plug) and memory deduplication (aka transparent content-based page
+sharing) but still has value when neither are present.
+
+Performance is difficult to quantify because some benchmarks respond
+very favorably to increases in memory and tmem may do quite well on
+those, depending on how much tmem is available which may vary widely
+and dynamically, depending on conditions completely outside of the
+system being measured. Ideas on how best to provide useful metrics
+would be appreciated.
+
+Tmem is supported starting in Xen 4.0 and is in Xen's Linux 2.6.18-xen
+source tree. It is also released as a technology preview in Oracle's
+Xen-based virtualization product, Oracle VM 2.2. Again, Xen is not
+necessarily a requirement, but currently provides the only existing
+implementation of tmem.
+
+Lots more information about tmem can be found at:
+ http://oss.oracle.com/projects/tmem
+and there was a talk about it on the first day of Linux Symposium in
+July 2009; an updated talk is planned at linux.conf.au in January 2010.
+Tmem is the result of a group effort, including Dan Magenheimer,
+Chris Mason, Dave McCracken, Kurt Hackel and Zhigang Wang, with helpful
+input from Jeremy Fitzhardinge, Keir Fraser, Ian Pratt, Sunil Mushran,
+Joel Becker, and Jan Beulich.
+
+THE TRANSCENDENT MEMORY API
+
+Transcendent memory is made up of a set of pools. Each pool is made
+up of a set of objects. And each object contains a set of pages.
+The combination of a 32-bit pool id, a 64-bit object id, and a 32-bit
+page id, uniquely identify a page of tmem data, and this tuple is called
+a "handle." Commonly, the three parts of a handle are used to address
+a filesystem, a file within that filesystem, and a page within that file;
+however an OS can use any values as long as they uniquely identify
+a page of data.
+
+When a tmem pool is created, it is given certain attributes: It can
+be private or shared, and it can be persistent or ephemeral. Each
+combination of these attributes provides a different set of useful
+functionality and also defines a slightly different set of semantics
+for the various operations on the pool. Other pool attributes include
+the size of the page and a version number.
+
+Once a pool is created, operations are performed on the pool. Pages
+are copied between the OS and tmem and are addressed using a handle.
+Pages and/or objects may also be flushed from the pool. When all
+operations are completed, a pool can be destroyed.
+
+The specific tmem functions are called in Linux through a set of
+accessor functions:
+
+int (*new_pool)(struct tmem_pool_uuid uuid, u32 flags);
+int (*destroy_pool)(u32 pool_id);
+int (*put_page)(u32 pool_id, u64 object, u32 index, unsigned long pfn);
+int (*get_page)(u32 pool_id, u64 object, u32 index, unsigned long pfn);
+int (*flush_page)(u32 pool_id, u64 object, u32 index);
+int (*flush_object)(u32 pool_id, u64 object);
+
+The new_pool accessor creates a new pool and returns a pool id
+which is a non-negative 32-bit integer. If the flags parameter
+specifies that the pool is to be shared, the uuid is a 128-bit "shared
+secret" else it is ignored. The destroy_pool accessor destroys the pool.
+(Note: shared pools are not supported until security implications
+are better understood.)
+
+The put_page accessor copies a page of data from the specified pageframe
+and associates it with the specified handle.
+
+The get_page accessor looks up a page of data in tmem associated with
+the specified handle and, if found, copies it to the specified pageframe.
+
+The flush_page accessor ensures that subsequent gets of a page with
+the specified handle will fail. The flush_object accessor ensures
+that subsequent gets of any page matching the pool id and object
+will fail.
+
+There are many subtle but critical behaviors for get_page and put_page:
+- Any put_page (with one notable exception) may be rejected and the client
+ must be prepared to deal with that failure. A put_page copies, NOT moves,
+ data; that is the data exists in both places. Linux is responsible for
+ destroying or overwriting its own copy, or alternately managing any
+ coherency between the copies.
+- Every page successfully put to a persistent pool must be found by a
+ subsequent get_page that specifies the same handle. A page successfully
+ put to an ephemeral pool has an indeterminate lifetime and even an
+ immediately subsequent get_page may fail.
+- A get_page to a private pool is destructive, that is it behaves as if
+ the get_page were atomically followed by a flush_page. A get_page
+ to a shared pool is non-destructive. A flush_page behaves just like
+ a get_page to a private pool except the data is thrown away.
+- Put-put-get coherency is guaranteed. For example, after the sequence:
+ put_page(ABC,D1);
+ put_page(ABC,D2);
+ get_page(ABC,E)
+ E may never contain the data from D1. However, even for a persistent
+ pool, the get_page may fail if the second put_page indicates failure.
+- Get-get coherency is guaranteed. For example, in the sequence:
+ put_page(ABC,D);
+ get_page(ABC,E1);
+ get_page(ABC,E2)
+ if the first get_page fails, the second must also fail.
+- A tmem implementation provides no serialization guarantees (e.g. to
+ an SMP Linux). So if different Linux threads are putting and flushing
+ the same page, the results are indeterminate.

+ * and retains the returned pool_id in its superblock. Clean pages evicted
+ * from pagecache may be "put" into the pool and associated with a "handle"
+ * consisting of the pool_id, an object (inode) id, and an index (page offset).
+ * Note that the page is copied to tmem; no kernel mappings are changed.
+ * If the page is later needed, the filesystem (or VFS) issues a "get", passing
+ * the same handle and an empty pageframe. If successful, the page is copied
+ * into the pageframe and a disk read is avoided. But since the tmem pool
+ * is of indeterminate size, a "put" page has indeterminate longevity
+ * ("ephemeral"), and the "get" may fail, in which case the filesystem must
+ * read the page from disk as before. Note that the filesystem/pagecache are
+ * responsible for maintaining coherency between the pagecache, precache,
+ * and the disk, for which "flush page" and "flush object" actions are
+ * provided. And when a filesystem is unmounted, it must "destroy" the pool.
+ *
+ * Two types of pools may be created for a precache: "private" or "shared".
+ * For a private pool, a successful "get" always flushes, implementing
+ * exclusive semantics; for a "shared" pool (which is intended for use by
+ * co-resident nodes of a cluster filesystem), the "flush" is not guaranteed.
+ * In either case, a failed "duplicate" put (overwrite) always guarantee
+ * the old data is flushed.
+ *
+ * Note also that multiple accesses to a tmem pool may be concurrent and any
+ * ordering must be guaranteed by the caller.

+ * and a page is about to be written to disk, a "put" into the pool may first

+ * consisting of a pool_id, an object id, and an index. Since the pool is of
+ * indeterminate size, the "put" may be rejected, in which case the page
+ * is swapped to disk as normal. If the "put" is successful, the page is
+ * copied to tmem and the preswap_map records the success. Later, when
+ * the page needs to be swapped in, the preswap_map is checked and, if set,
+ * the page may be obtained with a "get" operation. Note that the swap
+ * subsystem is responsible for: maintaining coherency between the swapcache,
+ * preswap, and the swapdisk; for evicting stale pages from preswap; and for
+ * emptying preswap when swapoff is performed. The "flush page" and "flush
