2022-09-26filemap: make the accounting of thrashing more consistentYang Yang1-1/+1
Once upon a time, we only support accounting thrashing of page cache. Then Joonsoo introduced workingset detection for anonymous pages and we gained the ability to account thrashing of them[1]. So let delayacct account both the thrashing of page cache and anonymous pages, this could make the codes more consistent and simpler.

2022-06-01delayacct: track delays from write-protect copyYang Yang1-1/+4
Delay accounting does not track the delay of write-protect copy. When tasks trigger many write-protect copys(include COW and unsharing of anonymous pages[1]), it may spend a amount of time waiting for them. To get the delay of tasks in write-protect copy, could help users to evaluate the impact of using KSM or fork() or GUP.

2022-04-22sched/psi: report zeroes for CPU full at the system levelChengming Zhou1-5/+4
Martin find it confusing when look at the /proc/pressure/cpu output, and found no hint about that CPU "full" line in psi Documentation. % cat /proc/pressure/cpu some avg10=0.92 avg60=0.91 avg300=0.73 total=933490489 full avg10=0.22 avg60=0.23 avg300=0.16 total=358783277 The PSI_CPU_FULL state is introduced by commit e7fcd7622823 ("psi: Add PSI_CPU_FULL state"), which mainly for cgroup level, but also counted at the system level as a side effect. Naturally, the FULL state doesn't exist for the CPU resource at the system level. These "full" numbers can come from CPU idle schedule latency. For example, t1 is the time when task wakeup on an idle CPU, t2 is the time when CPU pick and switch to it. The delta of (t2 - t1) will be in CPU_FULL state. Another case all processes can be stalled is when all cgroups have been throttled at the same time, which unlikely to happen. Anyway, CPU_FULL metric is meaningless and confusing at the system level. So this patch will report zeroes for CPU full at the system level, and update psi Documentation accordingly.

2022-01-18psi: Fix uaf issue when psi trigger is destroyed while being polledSuren Baghdasaryan1-1/+2
With write operation on psi files replacing old trigger with a new one, the lifetime of its waitqueue is totally arbitrary. Overwriting an existing trigger causes its waitqueue to be freed and pending poll() will stumble on trigger->event_wait which was destroyed. Fix this by disallowing to redefine an existing psi trigger. If a write operation is used on a file descriptor with an already existing psi trigger, the operation will fail with EBUSY error. Also bypass a check for psi_disabled in the psi_trigger_destroy as the flag can be flipped after the trigger is created, leading to a memory leak.

2019-05-14psi: introduce psi monitorSuren Baghdasaryan1-0/+107
Psi monitor aims to provide a low-latency short-term pressure detection mechanism configurable by users. It allows users to monitor psi metrics growth and trigger events whenever a metric raises above user-defined threshold within user-defined time window. Time window and threshold are both expressed in usecs. Multiple psi resources with different thresholds and window sizes can be monitored concurrently. Psi monitors activate when system enters stall state for the monitored psi metric and deactivate upon exit from the stall state. While system is in the stall state psi signal growth is monitored at a rate of 10 times per tracking window. Min window size is 500ms, therefore the min monitoring interval is 50ms. Max window size is 10s with monitoring interval of 1s. When activated psi monitor stays active for at least the duration of one tracking window to avoid repeated activations/deactivations when psi signal is bouncing. Notifications to the users are rate-limited to one per tracking window.

2018-10-26psi: cgroup supportJohannes Weiner1-0/+9
On a system that executes multiple cgrouped jobs and independent workloads, we don't just care about the health of the overall system, but also that of individual jobs, so that we can ensure individual job health, fairness between jobs, or prioritize some jobs over others. This patch implements pressure stall tracking for cgroups. In kernels with CONFIG_PSI=y, cgroup2 groups will have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure, and io.pressure files that track aggregate pressure stall times for only the tasks inside the cgroup.

2018-10-26psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IOJohannes Weiner1-0/+64
When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close the system is to lockups and OOM kills. In particular, when machines work multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency and throughput on the individual job can be enormous. In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way to quantify resource pressure in the system. A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO, respectively. Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay accounting delays: cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache io: tasks are waiting for io completions These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages, and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss incurred by resource overcommit. They can also indicate when the system is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs. To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU and samples the time they spend in stall states. Every 2 seconds, the samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of walltime. A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s, 1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

2010-12-22taskstats: pad taskstats netlink response for aligment issues on ia64Jeff Mahoney1-0/+1
The taskstats structure is internally aligned on 8 byte boundaries but the layout of the aggregrate reply, with two NLA headers and the pid (each 4 bytes), actually force the entire structure to be unaligned. This causes the kernel to issue unaligned access warnings on some architectures like ia64. Unfortunately, some software out there doesn't properly unroll the NLA packet and assumes that the start of the taskstats structure will always be 20 bytes from the start of the netlink payload. Aligning the start of the taskstats structure breaks this software, which we don't want. So, for now the alignment only happens on architectures that require it and those users will have to update to fixed versions of those packages. Space is reserved in the packet only when needed. This ifdef should be removed in several years e.g. 2012 once we can be confident that fixed versions are installed on most systems. We add the padding before the aggregate since the aggregate is already a defined type. Commit 85893120 ("delayacct: align to 8 byte boundary on 64-bit systems") previously addressed the alignment issues by padding out the pid field. This was supposed to be a compatible change but the circumstances described above mean that it wasn't. This patch backs out that change, since it was a hack, and introduces a new NULL attribute type to provide the padding. Padding the response with 4 bytes avoids allocating an aligned taskstats structure and copying it back. Since the structure weighs in at 328 bytes, it's too big to do it on the stack.

2010-10-27delay-accounting: reimplement -c for getdelays.c to report information on a ↵Mel Gorman1-2/+36
target command Task delay-accounting was identified as one means of determining how long a process spends in congestion_wait() without adding new statistics. For example, if the workload should not be doing IO, delay-accounting could reveal how long it was spending in unexpected IO or delays. Unfortunately, on closer examination it was clear that getdelays does not act as documented. Commit a3baf649 ("per-task-delay-accounting: documentation") added Documentation/accounting/getdelays.c with a -c switch that was documented to fork/exec a child and report statistics on it but for reasons that are unclear to me, commit 9e06d3f9 deleted support for this switch but did not update the documentation. It might be an oversight or it might be because the control flow of the program meant that accounting information would be printed once early in the lifetime of the program making it of limited use. This patch reimplements -c for getdelays.c to act as documented. Unlike the original version, it waits until the command completes before printing any information on it. An example of it being used looks like $ ./getdelays -d -c find /home/mel -name mel print delayacct stats ON /home/mel /home/mel/.notes-wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/mel /home/mel/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/mel /home/mel/git-configs/dot.kde/share/apps/konqueror/home/mel PID 5923 CPU count real total virtual total delay total 42779 5051232096 5164722692 564207988 IO count delay total 41727 97804147758 SWAP count delay total 0 0 RECLAIM count delay total 0 0 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Acked-by: Balbir Singh <balbir@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-08-12docsrc: build Documentation/ sourcesRandy Dunlap1-0/+10
Currently source files in the Documentation/ sub-dir can easily bit-rot since they are not generally buildable, either because they are hidden in text files or because there are no Makefile rules for them. This needs to be fixed so that the source files remain usable and good examples of code instead of bad examples. Add the ability to build source files that are in the Documentation/ dir. Add to Kconfig as "BUILD_DOCSRC" config symbol. Use "CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=1 make ..." to build objects from the Documentation/ sources. Or enable BUILD_DOCSRC in the *config system. However, this symbol depends on HEADERS_CHECK since the header files need to be installed (for userspace builds). Built (using cross-tools) for x86-64, i386, alpha, ia64, sparc32, sparc64, powerpc, sh, m68k, & mips.

2007-10-19Add cgroupstatsBalbir Singh1-0/+27
This patch is inspired by the discussion at http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/11/187 and implements per cgroup statistics as suggested by Andrew Morton in http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/11/263. The patch is on top of 2.6.21-mm1 with Paul's cgroups v9 patches (forward ported) This patch implements per cgroup statistics infrastructure and re-uses code from the taskstats interface. A new set of cgroup operations are registered with commands and attributes. It should be very easy to *extend* per cgroup statistics, by adding members to the cgroupstats structure. The current model for cgroupstats is a pull, a push model (to post statistics on interesting events), should be very easy to add. Currently user space requests for statistics by passing the cgroup file descriptor. Statistics about the state of all the tasks in the cgroup is returned to user space. TODO's/NOTE: This patch provides an infrastructure for implementing cgroup statistics. Based on the needs of each controller, we can incrementally add more statistics, event based support for notification of statistics, accumulation of taskstats into cgroup statistics in the future. Sample output # ./cgroupstats -C /cgroup/a sleeping 2, blocked 0, running 1, stopped 0, uninterruptible 0 # ./cgroupstats -C /cgroup/ sleeping 154, blocked 0, running 0, stopped 0, uninterruptible 0 If the approach looks good, I'll enhance and post the user space utility for the same Feedback, comments, test results are always welcome!
