Subject: [PATCH v3] mm: Add nodes= arg to memory.reclaim
The nodes= arg instructs the kernel to only scan the given nodes for
proactive reclaim. For example use cases, consider a 2 tier memory system:
nodes 0,1 -> top tier
nodes 2,3 -> second tier
$ echo "1m nodes=0" > memory.reclaim
This instructs the kernel to attempt to reclaim 1m memory from node 0.
Since node 0 is a top tier node, demotion will be attempted first. This
is useful to direct proactive reclaim to specific nodes that are under
pressure.
$ echo "1m nodes=2,3" > memory.reclaim
This instructs the kernel to attempt to reclaim 1m memory in the second tier,
since this tier of memory has no demotion targets the memory will be
reclaimed.
$ echo "1m nodes=0,1" > memory.reclaim
Instructs the kernel to reclaim memory from the top tier nodes, which can
be desirable according to the userspace policy if there is pressure on
the top tiers. Since these nodes have demotion targets, the kernel will
attempt demotion first.
Since commit 3f1509c57b1b ("Revert "mm/vmscan: never demote for memcg
reclaim""), the proactive reclaim interface memory.reclaim does both
reclaim and demotion. Reclaim and demotion incur different latency costs
to the jobs in the cgroup. Demoted memory would still be addressable
by the userspace at a higher latency, but reclaimed memory would need to
incur a pagefault.
The 'nodes' arg is useful to allow the userspace to control demotion
and reclaim independently according to its policy: if the memory.reclaim
is called on a node with demotion targets, it will attempt demotion first;
if it is called on a node without demotion targets, it will only attempt
reclaim.

v3:
- Dropped RFC tag from subject.
- Added Michal's Ack
- Applied some of Bagas's comment suggestions.
- Converted try_to_fre_mem_cgorup_pages() to take nodemask_t* instead of
nodemask_t as Shakeel and Muchun suggested.
Cc: bagasdotme@...il.com
Thanks for the comments and reviews.

This is a simple interface to trigger memory reclaim in the
target cgroup.
- This file accepts a single key, the number of bytes to reclaim.
- No nested keys are currently supported.
+ This file accepts a string which contains the number of bytes to
+ reclaim.
Example::
echo "1G" > memory.reclaim
- The interface can be later extended with nested keys to
- configure the reclaim behavior. For example, specify the
- type of memory to reclaim from (anon, file, ..).
-
Please note that the kernel can over or under reclaim from
the target cgroup. If less bytes are reclaimed than the
specified amount, -EAGAIN is returned.
