I'm moving the patches from bug 1005844 here as I'm not convinced they'll fix that bug and I'd rather not split landings across branches.

Carrying forward r=glandium from bug 1005844. Rebased across bug 1057754, and I think I fixed a bug where I failed to call chunk_alloc correctly (but somehow it compiled fine).

I'm much happier with this version. Compared to the last one, this: 1) Uses the chunk recording and recycling only for chunksized allocations, so that it cannot lead to unbalanced VirtualAlloc/VirtualFree calls. 2) Re-enables the address space coalescing that the recycling code does, since it's harmless now. 3) Uses commit/decommit rather than resetting in pages_purge when decommitting is enabled. This ensures that regardless of the current state of pages in a chunk, after recycling they will all be committed. 4) Adds and enforces a MALLOC_RECYCLE_LIMIT so that we don't keep unbounded amounts of address space allocated forever. I arbitrarily set this limit to 100 MiB so the cache can still be useful; smaller values might still be good enough, but note that it's only address space. The only way this value could be a problem is if we're very low on address space and some other allocator (the GC or OS thread creation, let's say) needs it. I'm open to suggestions on how to make this value less arbitrary though. I sent this to try at https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=fc8d139f9578 and confirmed locally that it works; it survived a run of Membench just fine.

Could you split the patch in a "import chunk recycle code" (which would come from the other bug) and a "cap the amount of memory" parts ?

I'll do you one better :) This is just the imported code, changed only enough to compile but not hooked up to anything (as a baseline).

Mike: I made a version of this for jemalloc tip and submitted a pull request, but I have no idea how to CC you on it (consider this needinfo a heads up). The pull request is here: https://github.com/jemalloc/jemalloc/pull/153 Nicholas: I'd like to see how this pull request goes first, as I had to change some things to make it work on jemalloc tip. Hopefully it won't take too long (if it does, I'll just update the patches here at some point).

No comments on the pull request other than my back and forth with Mike. I'll probably split out the unrelated fix for Windows and see if I can just attach patches to an issue instead, but I guess I'll update the patches here first. PS: Thanks for the reminder that this is wanted, the lack of response from upstream has been very frustrating to me.

(In reply to Nicholas Nethercote [:njn] from comment #19) > Do we genuinely need responses from upstream in order to land this? Well, it would be nice to know that they're on board with the approach at least. Still, at least the revised patches should be a good match for jemalloc's dev branch now. I had to rewrite much of parts 4-6; sending them through try now (got them in just before it closed, hopefully they'll finish).

The only real change here is the addition of atomic_add_z and atomic_sub_z. I basically cherry-picked the implementations we care about from jemalloc3's atomic.h.

I changed this to fully implement JEMALLOC_MUNMAP, since it was already 90% of the way there before and things make more sense this way. I fixed pages_purge() to work with non-chunksize allocations on Windows. This version no longer makes any changes to chunk_record, since making it fallible wasn't compatible with the dev branch of jemalloc3 and we can do everything at the caller.

Comment 23•10 years ago

This version moves the decisions on whether to record or recycle into the callers, makes JEMALLOC_RECYCLE a separate concept to JEMALLOC_MUNMAP (which serves its own purpose) and does things in terms of compile time constant variables instead of defines, as jemalloc3 does it (the defines got *really* ugly). The main reason I didn't want to make the decision about whether or not to record a chunk in the caller is that we can't take the chunk lock until we're in chunk_record - so the check can race with additions to the chunk cache. But I guess that's not really a big deal - at most we'll go over the limit by a few chunks in a heavily multithreaded situation. I did have to make the check atomic to compensate for the lack of a lock, though.

:johns triggered runs on AWSY for me, which should show up here eventually: https://areweslimyet.com/?series=bug1073662#evenspacing I also did some extra try runs for other configurations. This disables JEMALLOC_RECYCLE, which should match the pre-patch configuration: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/ui/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=30b15a0934f6 This disables JEMALLOC_MUNMAP, completely disabling memory unmapping (which might be viable on 64-bit platforms and supposedly helps Linux): https://treeherder.mozilla.org/ui/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=23d31ac71d5b It's good to see that these work, especially the former, as it means we can just opt out of the new code if needed.

And doing 3 triggers of baseline and the modified version is even better. Nonetheless, things look promising: - The two low (start-up lines) look unchanged: 173 and 151, which are similar to current. - The five high (after TP5, no waiting) lines look unchanged: 395--495, which are similar to current. - The two middle lines (after TP5, +30s) lines look better: 237 and 254, vs. ~260 and ~270. Though there is enough variation in these lines that it's hard to say it's a conclusive improvement.

(In reply to Mike Hommey [:glandium] from comment #32) > decrementing with min(chunksize, length) would work too. Hmm, true, I guess I'll do that. (In reply to Mike Hommey [:glandium] from comment #30) > 128GB? That seems like a whole lot of decommitted address space to hold on > to. Why not simply twice as much as what we'd hold on to on 32-bits? I figured there's plenty of address space to go around on 64-bit [1], so there's no real need to limit it - and to actually make it to 128GB we'd have to actually allocate that much first (then deallocate all of it), which seems impossible. However there's actually another limit that I forgot about: max_map_count on Linux, which appears to generally be 65530. Since we allocate in chunksize increments, we should make sure to stay well shy of that limit. How about something like 4096 * chunksize? It's more that I see no reason *not* to make it a high limit than anything else. [1] The limit is 7 TiB on 64-bit Windows with an Itanium-based processor and 8 TiB on others, 128 TiB on 64-bit Linux and something ridiculous on OSX. > It would probably read better as: > #ifdef MOZ_MEMORY_WINDOWS > /* comment */ > #define CAN_RECYCLE(size) (size == chunksize) > #else > #define CAN_RECYCLE(size) true > #endif > > if (!config_munmap || (config_recycle && CAN_RECYCLE(size)) { I like that, will do. > what's the worst that can happen from not using an atomic read here? a > couple chunks sneaking in the recycle list. I don't think we need to care > about the limit being absolutely accurate. Hmm, this is kind of a tough question. It's true we don't need atomicity, but it's worth thinking about the memory ordering. (1) If |recycled_size < recycle_limit|, we go to record the chunk and take the lock, inserting a memory fence and essentially giving us release-acquire memory ordering (not quite sequentially consistent, because there's no fence before the load). (2) If |recycled_size >= recycle_limit|, we never take any locks, and so this has relaxed memory ordering. If allocation always happens on one thread, and deallocation always happens on another, this could theoretically never sync up, and we wouldn't record any more chunks even though they're being recycled. In practice I expect we'd get memory fences and serializing instructions every now and then regardless, but I don't really like leaving it up to chance. It seems odd to make only the load here atomic though :\

Why not simply twice as much as what we'd hold on to on 32-bits? I changed this to 4096 and added a comment (4096 and 128 actually have some interesting parity in this case).

I don't think we need to care > about the limit being absolutely accurate. See also comment #33. I talked this over with Waldo; he advised me to do the cautious thing, and I agree. Without any memory barriers, there's no guarantee that this load will ever sync up with the store in chunk_recycle(). I don't think we need sequential consistency here; release-acquire memory ordering is enough. To do that efficiently and explicitly, I wrote a small function that inserts a memory barrier after the load, called load_acquire_z to differentiate it from the jemalloc atomic functions. I realize this may not be the right answer for upstream (which can just use the existing atomic_read_z), but I think this is the best solution for our fork (since we can't import all the jemalloc atomics functions verbatim anyway). Let me know if you'd prefer something different. The use of InterlockedExchange with a dummy variable on Windows is fairly well known - MinGW uses it, for instance, and it has been verified to generate the right instruction.

I realized there might be a problem on Mac, which uses MALLOC_DOUBLE_PURGE. pages_purge() does |madvise(..., MADV_FREE)|, but IIUC that doesn't make Mac actually decommit anything until the memory is needed by other processes. MALLOC_DOUBLE_PURGE forces it to decommit, which I believe we use when we measure in about:memory, but this isn't hooked up to the chunk recycling code. Nicholas, how important is this to fix? Is this a reason to go with the same limit (128 chunks) on 32-bit and 64-bit? I'm not sure off-hand how to hook the recycling code up to the MALLOC_DOUBLE_PURGE stuff, but I could probably figure it out if needed.

(In reply to Mike Hommey [:glandium] from comment #47) > I for one don't like the loop repetition. How about [...] That's not a bad idea. However, let me offer this patch as a counter-proposal: by fixing pages_commit and pages_decommit to work on chunksized regions on Windows (as they should, in the presence of recycling), we can simply call them instead. This adds the same loop to pages_commit and pages_decommit, but removes it from chunk_recycle. In addition, this makes pages_purge work with MALLOC_DECOMMIT on any platform (although we only have it enabled on Windows), and removes the same limitation in chunk_recycle. I also realized something while working on this that the regions that pages_commit and pages_decommit work on are not in general chunk-aligned. pages_purge is only used for chunk-aligned regions currently, but that doesn't have to remain the case. So this patch modifies the loop slightly to first commit/decommit/purge everything up to the nearest chunk boundary, then proceed in chunksized increments. I actually think it looks better this way, though it does involve an additional variable. Finally, this patch should fix the problem I noticed regarding MALLOC_DOUBLE_PURGE. The solution is simply to walk the tree of recycled chunks in jemalloc_purge_freed_pages_impl, and decommit-then-commit each region as hard_purge_chunk does. I can't actually test this locally since I don't have a Mac, so hopefully Try will exercise this path (though it's simple enough that if it compiles, it probably works). I'm asking for another round of review since this version changed a fair few things.

Silly compilation bustage fixes. Try on Linux looks good, but I'm having trouble getting any results out of Windows for some reason: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/ui/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=878ff01b9a3c and (after compile fix) https://treeherder.mozilla.org/ui/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=2a7b9295b44c Windows compiles fine locally, so I think this is some sort of weird infrastructure problem. It shouldn't be affected by the OSX compilation fix, since that code is ifdeffed out on Windows.

This fixes a silly copy/paste error (which made pages_commit try to decommit instead of committing). I don't know why this caused compilation to fail on try for Windows, but it was probably the cause. Sending it through try now.

This doesn't actually change the behavior - the cache is only used when unmapping is *disabled*. jemalloc3 disables munmap by default on Linux, but we do not.

This caused a 5.64% regression in TP5 (Private Bytes) on Linux. RSS stayed the same, and Windows is unaffected. I guess this isn't surprising since we're holding on to address space that we weren't before. Windows might be unaffected because we're decommitting there, whereas Linux just uses madvise(..., MADV_DONTNEED), but I'm not really sure how Private Bytes are measured (i.e. what they are).

What does "private bytes" mean on Linux?
Assignee | ||
Comment 66•10 years ago
|
||
about:memory says about 'private': "Memory that cannot be shared with other processes, including memory that is committed and marked MEM_PRIVATE, data that is not mapped, and executable pages that have been written to." Since we only MADV_DONTNEED the pages, I don't think that will reduce our private bytes unless the OS decommits the pages due to memory pressure.
Assignee | ||
Comment 67•10 years ago
|

Note that pages_decommit sets the pages to PROT_NONE instead (which apparently makes the OS *actually* get rid of them), but MALLOC_DECOMMIT is not enabled on Linux.

Since we don't unmap unless the chunk cache is empty now, this might have gotten faster.

IIRC MADV_DONTNEED makes the kernel drop the pages immediately, and the recorded chunks are purged, which does MADV_DONTNEED on them right? So an increase in private bytes theoretically can't come from that.

As far as I can tell, 'Private Bytes' is a (hard to understand) Microsoft term, so I'm not sure what it even really means on Linux. It would be nice to know how Talos and/or about:memory determine this figure. Joel, could you point me in the right direction?

here is where we calculate 'private bytes' for linux: http://hg.mozilla.org/build/talos/file/2bdbc49134c4/talos/cmanager_linux.py#l74 I assume this is related to the alert that came out from graph server/talos ?

Thanks! So that just tallies up all the mapped ranges that have PROT_WRITE set on them. MADV_DONTNEED doesn't change the memory protection of the range, so I don't see any reason why it would reduce private bytes. It also explains why pages_decommit *would* reduce private bytes, since it explicitly sets the range to PROT_NONE.
Comment 74•10 years ago

Seems to me it's an uninteresting metric to care about here. Yes, this bug makes us "leak" "private" address space on purpose. The important part is that RSS doesn't change because we MADV_DONTNEED it.

Linux aside, I would definitely suggest not collecting private bytes for Mac - the number seems to hover around 3.8 GiB for 10.6 (which is 32-bit, I think?) and about the same with more noise for 10.8. I don't know if we could do anything to make it report a useful number (for instance, maybe the MALLOC_DOUBLE_PURGE stuff isn't kicking in because Talos doesn't call the relevant function), but it doesn't look useful now.

This might help you debug. This patch here - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=552020#c43 - Makes the talos test crash a bit more often, which might help, however again only on 10.6.
