folio-compat: remove lru_cache_add()
There are no longer any callers of lru_cache_add(), so remove it. This saves 79 bytes of kernel text. Also cleanup some comments such that they reference the new folio_add_lru() instead.

mm: vmscan: make rotations a secondary factor in balancing anon vs file
We noticed a 2% webserver throughput regression after upgrading from 5.6.
This could be tracked down to a shift in the anon/file reclaim balance
(confirmed with swappiness) that resulted in worse reclaim efficiency and
thus more kswapd activity for the same outcome.
The change that exposed the problem is

mm: multi-gen LRU: minimal implementation
To avoid confusion, the terms "promotion" and "demotion" will be applied
to the multi-gen LRU, as a new convention; the terms "activation" and
"deactivation" will be applied to the active/inactive LRU, as usual.
The aging produces young generations. Given an lruvec, it increments
max_seq when max_seq-min_seq+1 approaches MIN_NR_GENS. The aging promotes
hot pages to the youngest generation when it finds them accessed through
page tables; the demotion of cold pages happens consequently when it
increments max_seq. Promotion in the aging path does not involve any LRU
list operations, only the updates of the gen counter and
lrugen->nr_pages[]; demotion, unless as the result of the increment of
max_seq, requires LRU list operations, e.g., lru_deactivate_fn(). The
aging has the complexity O(nr_hot_pages), since it is only interested in
hot pages.
The eviction consumes old generations. Given an lruvec, it increments
min_seq when lrugen->lists[] indexed by min_seq%MAX_NR_GENS becomes empty.
A feedback loop modeled after the PID controller monitors refaults over
anon and file types and decides which type to evict when both types are
available from the same generation.
The protection of pages accessed multiple times through file descriptors
takes place in the eviction path. Each generation is divided into
multiple tiers. A page accessed N times through file descriptors is in
tier order_base_2(N). Tiers do not have dedicated lrugen->lists[], only
bits in folio->flags. The aforementioned feedback loop also monitors
refaults over all tiers and decides when to protect pages in which tiers
(N>1), using the first tier (N=0,1) as a baseline. The first tier
contains single-use unmapped clean pages, which are most likely the best
choices. In contrast to promotion in the aging path, the protection of a
page in the eviction path is achieved by moving this page to the next
generation, i.e., min_seq+1, if the feedback loop decides so. This
approach has the following advantages:
1. It removes the cost of activation in the buffered access path by
inferring whether pages accessed multiple times through file
descriptors are statistically hot and thus worth protecting in the
eviction path.
2. It takes pages accessed through page tables into account and avoids
overprotecting pages accessed multiple times through file
descriptors. (Pages accessed through page tables are in the first
tier, since N=0.)
3. More tiers provide better protection for pages accessed more than
twice through file descriptors, when under heavy buffered I/O
workloads.

mm: shrinkers: provide shrinkers with names
Currently shrinkers are anonymous objects. For debugging purposes they
can be identified by count/scan function names, but it's not always
useful: e.g. for superblock's shrinkers it's nice to have at least an
idea of to which superblock the shrinker belongs.
This commit adds names to shrinkers. register_shrinker() and
prealloc_shrinker() functions are extended to take a format and arguments
to master a name.
In some cases it's not possible to determine a good name at the time when
a shrinker is allocated. For such cases shrinker_debugfs_rename() is
provided.
The expected format is:
<subsystem>-<shrinker_type>[:<instance>]-<id>
For some shrinkers an instance can be encoded as (MAJOR:MINOR) pair.
After this change the shrinker debugfs directory looks like:
$ cd /sys/kernel/debug/shrinker/
$ ls

memcg: sync flush only if periodic flush is delayed
Daniel Dao has reported [1] a regression on workloads that may trigger a
lot of refaults (anon and file). The underlying issue is that flushing
rstat is expensive. Although rstat flush are batched with (nr_cpus *
MEMCG_BATCH) stat updates, it seems like there are workloads which
genuinely do stat updates larger than batch value within short amount of
time. Since the rstat flush can happen in the performance critical
codepaths like page faults, such workload can suffer greatly.
This patch fixes this regression by making the rstat flushing
conditional in the performance critical codepaths. More specifically,
the kernel relies on the async periodic rstat flusher to flush the stats
and only if the periodic flusher is delayed by more than twice the
amount of its normal time window then the kernel allows rstat flushing
from the performance critical codepaths.
Now the question: what are the side-effects of this change? The worst
that can happen is the refault codepath will see 4sec old lruvec stats
and may cause false (or missed) activations of the refaulted page which
may under-or-overestimate the workingset size. Though that is not very
concerning as the kernel can already miss or do false activations.
There are two more codepaths whose flushing behavior is not changed by
this patch and we may need to come to them in future. One is the
writeback stats used by dirty throttling and second is the deactivation
heuristic in the reclaim. For now keeping an eye on them and if there
is report of regression due to these codepaths, we will reevaluate then.

vfs: keep inodes with page cache off the inode shrinker LRU
Historically (pre-2.5), the inode shrinker used to reclaim only empty inodes and skip over those that still contained page cache. This caused problems on highmem hosts: struct inode could put fill lowmem zones before the cache was getting reclaimed in the highmem zones. To address this, the inode shrinker started to strip page cache to facilitate reclaiming lowmem. However, this comes with its own set of problems: the shrinkers may drop actively used page cache just because the inodes are not currently open or dirty - think working with a large git tree. It further doesn't respect cgroup memory protection settings and can cause priority inversions between containers. Nowadays, the page cache also holds non-resident info for evicted cache pages in order to detect refaults. We've come to rely heavily on this data inside reclaim for protecting the cache workingset and driving swap behavior. We also use it to quantify and report workload health through psi. The latter in turn is used for fleet health monitoring, as well as driving automated memory sizing of workloads and containers, proactive reclaim and memory offloading schemes. The consequences of dropping page cache prematurely is that we're seeing subtle and not-so-subtle failures in all of the above-mentioned scenarios, with the workload generally entering unexpected thrashing states while losing the ability to reliably detect it. To fix this on non-highmem systems at least, going back to rotating inodes on the LRU isn't feasible. We've tried (commit |

mm: memcontrol: remove the pgdata parameter of mem_cgroup_page_lruvec
All the callers of mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() just pass page_pgdat(page) as the 2nd parameter to it (except isolate_migratepages_block()). But for isolate_migratepages_block(), the page_pgdat(page) is also equal to the local variable of @pgdat. So mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() do not need the pgdat parameter. Just remove it to simplify the code.

mm: workingset: clarify eviction order and distance calculation
The premise of the refault distance is that it can be seen as a deficit of the inactive list space, so that if the inactive list would have had (R - E) more slots, the page would not have been evicted but promoted to the active list instead. However, the way the code is ordered right now set us to be off by one, so the real number of slots would be (R - E) + 1. I stumbled upon this when trying to understand the code and it puzzled me that the comments did not match what the code did. This it not an issue at all since evictions and refaults tend to happen in a number large enough that being off-by-one does not have any impact - and since the compiler and CPUs are free to rearrange the execution sequence anyway. But as Johannes says, it is better to re-arrange the code in the proper order since otherwise would be misleading to somebody who is actively reading and trying to understand the logic of the code - like it happened to me.

We have to move lru_lock into lru_note_cost, since it cycle up on memcg tree, for future per lruvec lru_lock replace. It's a bit ugly and may cost a bit more locking, but benefit from multiple memcg locking could cover the lost.

mm: memcg/slab: rename *_lruvec_slab_state to *_lruvec_kmem_state
The *_lruvec_slab_state is also suitable for pages allocated from buddy, not just for the slab objects. But the function name seems to tell us that only slab object is applicable. So we can rename the keyword of slab to kmem.

mm: memcontrol: Use helpers to read page's memcg data
Patch series "mm: allow mapping accounted kernel pages to userspace", v6. Currently a non-slab kernel page which has been charged to a memory cgroup can't be mapped to userspace. The underlying reason is simple: PageKmemcg flag is defined as a page type (like buddy, offline, etc), so it takes a bit from a page->mapped counter. Pages with a type set can't be mapped to userspace. But in general the kmemcg flag has nothing to do with mapping to userspace. It only means that the page has been accounted by the page allocator, so it has to be properly uncharged on release. Some bpf maps are mapping the vmalloc-based memory to userspace, and their memory can't be accounted because of this implementation detail. This patchset removes this limitation by moving the PageKmemcg flag into one of the free bits of the page->mem_cgroup pointer. Also it formalizes accesses to the page->mem_cgroup and page->obj_cgroups using new helpers, adds several checks and removes a couple of obsolete functions. As the result the code became more robust with fewer open-coded bit tricks. This patch (of 4): Currently there are many open-coded reads of the page->mem_cgroup pointer, as well as a couple of read helpers, which are barely used. It creates an obstacle on a way to reuse some bits of the pointer for storing additional bits of information. In fact, we already do this for slab pages, where the last bit indicates that a pointer has an attached vector of objcg pointers instead of a regular memcg pointer. This commits uses 2 existing helpers and introduces a new helper to converts all read sides to calls of these helpers: struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg(struct page *page); struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg_rcu(struct page *page); struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg_check(struct page *page); page_memcg_check() is intended to be used in cases when the page can be a slab page and have a memcg pointer pointing at objcg vector. It does check the lowest bit, and if set, returns NULL. page_memcg() contains a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() check for the page not being a slab page. To make sure nobody uses a direct access, struct page's mem_cgroup/obj_cgroups is converted to unsigned long memcg_data.

mm: memcg: convert vmstat slab counters to bytes
In order to prepare for per-object slab memory accounting, convert NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE and NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE vmstat items to bytes. To make it obvious, rename them to NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE_B and NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE_B (similar to NR_KERNEL_STACK_KB). Internally global and per-node counters are stored in pages, however memcg and lruvec counters are stored in bytes. This scheme may look weird, but only for now. As soon as slab pages will be shared between multiple cgroups, global and node counters will reflect the total number of slab pages. However memcg and lruvec counters will be used for per-memcg slab memory tracking, which will take separate kernel objects in the account. Keeping global and node counters in pages helps to avoid additional overhead. The size of slab memory shouldn't exceed 4Gb on 32-bit machines, so it will fit into atomic_long_t we use for vmstats.

mm: workingset: age nonresident information alongside anonymous pages
Patch series "fix for "mm: balance LRU lists based on relative
thrashing" patchset"
This patchset fixes some problems of the patchset, "mm: balance LRU
lists based on relative thrashing", which is now merged on the mainline.
Patch "mm: workingset: let cache workingset challenge anon fix" is the
result of discussion with Johannes. See following link.
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200520232525.798933-6-hannes@cmpxchg.org
And, the other two are minor things which are found when I try to rebase
my patchset.
This patch (of 3):
After ("mm: workingset: let cache workingset challenge anon fix"), we
compare refault distances to active_file + anon. But age of the
non-resident information is only driven by the file LRU. As a result,
we may overestimate the recency of any incoming refaults and activate
them too eagerly, causing unnecessary LRU churn in certain situations.
Make anon aging drive nonresident age as well to address that.

mm: vmscan: reclaim writepage is IO cost
The VM tries to balance reclaim pressure between anon and file so as to reduce the amount of IO incurred due to the memory shortage. It already counts refaults and swapins, but in addition it should also count writepage calls during reclaim. For swap, this is obvious: it's IO that wouldn't have occurred if the anonymous memory hadn't been under memory pressure. From a relative balancing point of view this makes sense as well: even if anon is cold and reclaimable, a cache that isn't thrashing may have equally cold pages that don't require IO to reclaim. For file writeback, it's trickier: some of the reclaim writepage IO would have likely occurred anyway due to dirty expiration. But not all of it - premature writeback reduces batching and generates additional writes. Since the flushers are already woken up by the time the VM starts writing cache pages one by one, let's assume that we'e likely causing writes that wouldn't have happened without memory pressure. In addition, the per-page cost of IO would have probably been much cheaper if written in larger batches from the flusher thread rather than the single-page-writes from kswapd. For our purposes - getting the trend right to accelerate convergence on a stable state that doesn't require paging at all - this is sufficiently accurate. If we later wanted to optimize for sustained thrashing, we can still refine the measurements. Count all writepage calls from kswapd as IO cost toward the LRU that the page belongs to. Why do this dynamically? Don't we know in advance that anon pages require IO to reclaim, and so could build in a static bias? First, scanning is not the same as reclaiming. If all the anon pages are referenced, we may not swap for a while just because we're scanning the anon list. During this time, however, it's important that we age anonymous memory and the page cache at the same rate so that their hot-cold gradients are comparable. Everything else being equal, we still want to reclaim the coldest memory overall. Second, we keep copies in swap unless the page changes. If there is swap-backed data that's mostly read (tmpfs file) and has been swapped out before, we can reclaim it without incurring additional IO.

mm: balance LRU lists based on relative thrashing
Since the LRUs were split into anon and file lists, the VM has been
balancing between page cache and anonymous pages based on per-list ratios
of scanned vs. rotated pages. In most cases that tips page reclaim
towards the list that is easier to reclaim and has the fewest actively
used pages, but there are a few problems with it:
1. Refaults and LRU rotations are weighted the same way, even though
one costs IO and the other costs a bit of CPU.
2. The less we scan an LRU list based on already observed rotations,
the more we increase the sampling interval for new references, and
rotations become even more likely on that list. This can enter a
death spiral in which we stop looking at one list completely until
the other one is all but annihilated by page reclaim.

mm: workingset: let cache workingset challenge anon
We activate cache refaults with reuse distances in pages smaller than the size of the total cache. This allows new pages with competitive access frequencies to establish themselves, as well as challenge and potentially displace pages on the active list that have gone cold. However, that assumes that active cache can only replace other active cache in a competition for the hottest memory. This is not a great default assumption. The page cache might be thrashing while there are enough completely cold and unused anonymous pages sitting around that we'd only have to write to swap once to stop all IO from the cache. Activate cache refaults when their reuse distance in pages is smaller than the total userspace workingset, including anonymous pages. Reclaim can still decide how to balance pressure among the two LRUs depending on the IO situation. Rotational drives will prefer avoiding random IO from swap and go harder after cache. But fundamentally, hot cache should be able to compete with anon pages for a place in RAM.

mm: vmscan: detect file thrashing at the reclaim root
We use refault information to determine whether the cache workingset is stable or transitioning, and dynamically adjust the inactive:active file LRU ratio so as to maximize protection from one-off cache during stable periods, and minimize IO during transitions. With cgroups and their nested LRU lists, we currently don't do this correctly. While recursive cgroup reclaim establishes a relative LRU order among the pages of all involved cgroups, refaults only affect the local LRU order in the cgroup in which they are occuring. As a result, cache transitions can take longer in a cgrouped system as the active pages of sibling cgroups aren't challenged when they should be. [ Right now, this is somewhat theoretical, because the siblings, under continued regular reclaim pressure, should eventually run out of inactive pages - and since inactive:active *size* balancing is also done on a cgroup-local level, we will challenge the active pages eventually in most cases. But the next patch will move that relative size enforcement to the reclaim root as well, and then this patch here will be necessary to propagate refault pressure to siblings. ] This patch moves refault detection to the root of reclaim. Instead of remembering the cgroup owner of an evicted page, remember the cgroup that caused the reclaim to happen. When refaults later occur, they'll correctly influence the cross-cgroup LRU order that reclaim follows. I.e. if global reclaim kicked out pages in some subgroup A/B/C, the refault of those pages will challenge the global LRU order, and not just the local order down inside C.

mm: clean up and clarify lruvec lookup procedure
There is a per-memcg lruvec and a NUMA node lruvec. Which one is being used is somewhat confusing right now, and it's easy to make mistakes - especially when it comes to global reclaim. How it works: when memory cgroups are enabled, we always use the root_mem_cgroup's per-node lruvecs. When memory cgroups are not compiled in or disabled at runtime, we use pgdat->lruvec. Document that in a comment. Due to the way the reclaim code is generalized, all lookups use the mem_cgroup_lruvec() helper function, and nobody should have to find the right lruvec manually right now. But to avoid future mistakes, rename the pgdat->lruvec member to pgdat->__lruvec and delete the convenience wrapper that suggests it's a commonly accessed member. While in this area, swap the mem_cgroup_lruvec() argument order. The name suggests a memcg operation, yet it takes a pgdat first and a memcg second. I have to double take every time I call this. Fix that.

mm: memcontrol: make cgroup stats and events query API explicitly local
Patch series "mm: memcontrol: memory.stat cost & correctness". The cgroup memory.stat file holds recursive statistics for the entire subtree. The current implementation does this tree walk on-demand whenever the file is read. This is giving us problems in production. 1. The cost of aggregating the statistics on-demand is high. A lot of system service cgroups are mostly idle and their stats don't change between reads, yet we always have to check them. There are also always some lazily-dying cgroups sitting around that are pinned by a handful of remaining page cache; the same applies to them. In an application that periodically monitors memory.stat in our fleet, we have seen the aggregation consume up to 5% CPU time. 2. When cgroups die and disappear from the cgroup tree, so do their accumulated vm events. The result is that the event counters at higher-level cgroups can go backwards and confuse some of our automation, let alone people looking at the graphs over time. To address both issues, this patch series changes the stat implementation to spill counts upwards when the counters change. The upward spilling is batched using the existing per-cpu cache. In a sparse file stress test with 5 level cgroup nesting, the additional cost of the flushing was negligible (a little under 1% of CPU at 100% CPU utilization, compared to the 5% of reading memory.stat during regular operation). This patch (of 4): memcg_page_state(), lruvec_page_state(), memcg_sum_events() are currently returning the state of the local memcg or lruvec, not the recursive state. In practice there is a demand for both versions, although the callers that want the recursive counts currently sum them up by hand. Per default, cgroups are considered recursive entities and generally we expect more users of the recursive counters, with the local counts being special cases. To reflect that in the name, add a _local suffix to the current implementations. The following patch will re-incarnate these functions with recursive semantics, but with an O(1) implementation.

mm: zero-seek shrinkers
The page cache and most shrinkable slab caches hold data that has been read from disk, but there are some caches that only cache CPU work, such as the dentry and inode caches of procfs and sysfs, as well as the subset of radix tree nodes that track non-resident page cache. Currently, all these are shrunk at the same rate: using DEFAULT_SEEKS for the shrinker's seeks setting tells the reclaim algorithm that for every two page cache pages scanned it should scan one slab object. This is a bogus setting. A virtual inode that required no IO to create is not twice as valuable as a page cache page; shadow cache entries with eviction distances beyond the size of memory aren't either. In most cases, the behavior in practice is still fine. Such virtual caches don't tend to grow and assert themselves aggressively, and usually get picked up before they cause problems. But there are scenarios where that's not true. Our database workloads suffer from two of those. For one, their file workingset is several times bigger than available memory, which has the kernel aggressively create shadow page cache entries for the non-resident parts of it. The workingset code does tell the VM that most of these are expendable, but the VM ends up balancing them 2:1 to cache pages as per the seeks setting. This is a huge waste of memory. These workloads also deal with tens of thousands of open files and use /proc for introspection, which ends up growing the proc_inode_cache to absurdly large sizes - again at the cost of valuable cache space, which isn't a reasonable trade-off, given that proc inodes can be re-created without involving the disk. This patch implements a "zero-seek" setting for shrinkers that results in a target ratio of 0:1 between their objects and IO-backed caches. This allows such virtual caches to grow when memory is available (they do cache/avoid CPU work after all), but effectively disables them as soon as IO-backed objects are under pressure. It then switches the shrinkers for procfs and sysfs metadata, as well as excess page cache shadow nodes, to the new zero-seek setting.

mm: workingset: tell cache transitions from workingset thrashing
Refaults happen during transitions between workingsets as well as in-place thrashing. Knowing the difference between the two has a range of applications, including measuring the impact of memory shortage on the system performance, as well as the ability to smarter balance pressure between the filesystem cache and the swap-backed workingset. During workingset transitions, inactive cache refaults and pushes out established active cache. When that active cache isn't stale, however, and also ends up refaulting, that's bonafide thrashing. Introduce a new page flag that tells on eviction whether the page has been active or not in its lifetime. This bit is then stored in the shadow entry, to classify refaults as transitioning or thrashing. How many page->flags does this leave us with on 32-bit? 20 bits are always page flags 21 if you have an MMU 23 with the zone bits for DMA, Normal, HighMem, Movable 29 with the sparsemem section bits 30 if PAE is enabled 31 with this patch. So on 32-bit PAE, that leaves 1 bit for distinguishing two NUMA nodes. If that's not enough, the system can switch to discontigmem and re-gain the 6 or 7 sparsemem section bits.

mm: workingset: don't drop refault information prematurely
Patch series "psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO", v4. Overview PSI reports the overall wallclock time in which the tasks in a system (or cgroup) wait for (contended) hardware resources. This helps users understand the resource pressure their workloads are under, which allows them to rootcause and fix throughput and latency problems caused by overcommitting, underprovisioning, suboptimal job placement in a grid; as well as anticipate major disruptions like OOM. Real-world applications We're using the data collected by PSI (and its previous incarnation, memdelay) quite extensively at Facebook, and with several success stories. One usecase is avoiding OOM hangs/livelocks. The reason these happen is because the OOM killer is triggered by reclaim not being able to free pages, but with fast flash devices there is *always* some clean and uptodate cache to reclaim; the OOM killer never kicks in, even as tasks spend 90% of the time thrashing the cache pages of their own executables. There is no situation where this ever makes sense in practice. We wrote a <100 line POC python script to monitor memory pressure and kill stuff way before such pathological thrashing leads to full system losses that would require forcible hard resets. We've since extended and deployed this code into other places to guarantee latency and throughput SLAs, since they're usually violated way before the kernel OOM killer would ever kick in. It is available here: https://github.com/facebookincubator/oomd Eventually we probably want to trigger the in-kernel OOM killer based on extreme sustained pressure as well, so that Linux can avoid memory livelocks - which technically aren't deadlocks, but to the user indistinguishable from them - out of the box. We'd continue using OOMD as the first line of defense to ensure workload health and implement complex kill policies that are beyond the scope of the kernel. We also use PSI memory pressure for loadshedding. Our batch job infrastructure used to use heuristics based on various VM stats to anticipate OOM situations, with lackluster success. We switched it to PSI and managed to anticipate and avoid OOM kills and lockups fairly reliably. The reduction of OOM outages in the worker pool raised the pool's aggregate productivity, and we were able to switch that service to smaller machines. Lastly, we use cgroups to isolate a machine's main workload from maintenance crap like package upgrades, logging, configuration, as well as to prevent multiple workloads on a machine from stepping on each others' toes. We were not able to configure this properly without the pressure metrics; we would see latency or bandwidth drops, but it would often be hard to impossible to rootcause it post-mortem. We now log and graph pressure for the containers in our fleet and can trivially link latency spikes and throughput drops to shortages of specific resources after the fact, and fix the job config/scheduling. PSI has also received testing, feedback, and feature requests from Android and EndlessOS for the purpose of low-latency OOM killing, to intervene in pressure situations before the UI starts hanging. How do you use this feature? A kernel with CONFIG_PSI=y will create a /proc/pressure directory with 3 files: cpu, memory, and io. If using cgroup2, cgroups will also have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure and io.pressure files, which simply aggregate task stalls at the cgroup level instead of system-wide. The cpu file contains one line: some avg10=2.04 avg60=0.75 avg300=0.40 total=157656722 The averages give the percentage of walltime in which one or more tasks are delayed on the runqueue while another task has the CPU. They're recent averages over 10s, 1m, 5m windows, so you can tell short term trends from long term ones, similarly to the load average. The total= value gives the absolute stall time in microseconds. This allows detecting latency spikes that might be too short to sway the running averages. It also allows custom time averaging in case the 10s/1m/5m windows aren't adequate for the usecase (or are too coarse with future hardware). What to make of this "some" metric? If CPU utilization is at 100% and CPU pressure is 0, it means the system is perfectly utilized, with one runnable thread per CPU and nobody waiting. At two or more runnable tasks per CPU, the system is 100% overcommitted and the pressure average will indicate as much. From a utilization perspective this is a great state of course: no CPU cycles are being wasted, even when 50% of the threads were to go idle (as most workloads do vary). From the perspective of the individual job it's not great, however, and they would do better with more resources. Depending on what your priority and options are, raised "some" numbers may or may not require action. The memory file contains two lines: some avg10=70.24 avg60=68.52 avg300=69.91 total=3559632828 full avg10=57.59 avg60=58.06 avg300=60.38 total=3300487258 The some line is the same as for cpu, the time in which at least one task is stalled on the resource. In the case of memory, this includes waiting on swap-in, page cache refaults and page reclaim. The full line, however, indicates time in which *nobody* is using the CPU productively due to pressure: all non-idle tasks are waiting for memory in one form or another. Significant time spent in there is a good trigger for killing things, moving jobs to other machines, or dropping incoming requests, since neither the jobs nor the machine overall are making too much headway. The io file is similar to memory. Because the block layer doesn't have a concept of hardware contention right now (how much longer is my IO request taking due to other tasks?), it reports CPU potential lost on all IO delays, not just the potential lost due to competition. FAQ Q: How is PSI's CPU component different from the load average? A: There are several quirks in the load average that make it hard to impossible to tell how overcommitted the CPU really is. 1. The load average is reported as a raw number of active tasks. You need to know how many CPUs there are in the system, how many CPUs the workload is allowed to use, then think about what the proportion between load and the number of CPUs mean for the tasks trying to run. PSI reports the percentage of wallclock time in which tasks are waiting for a CPU to run on. It doesn't matter how many CPUs are present or usable. The number always tells the quality of life of tasks in the system or in a particular cgroup. 2. The shortest averaging window is 1m, which is extremely coarse, and it's sampled in 5s intervals. A *lot* can happen on a CPU in 5 seconds. This *may* be able to identify persistent long-term trends and very clear and obvious overloads, but it's unusable for latency spikes and more subtle overutilization. PSI's shortest window is 10s. It also exports the cumulative stall times (in microseconds) of synchronously recorded events. 3. On Linux, the load average for historical reasons includes all TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE tasks. This gives a broader sense of how busy the system is, but on the flipside it doesn't distinguish whether tasks are likely to contend over the CPU or IO - which obviously requires very different interventions from a sys admin or a job scheduler. PSI reports independent metrics for CPU and IO. You can tell which resource is making the tasks wait, but in conjunction still see how overloaded the system is overall. Q: What's the cost / performance impact of this feature? A: PSI's primary cost is in the scheduler, in particular task wakeups and sleeps. I benchmarked this code using Facebook's two most scheduling sensitive workloads: memcache and webserver. They handle a ton of small requests - lots of wakeups and sleeps with little actual work in between - so they tend to be canaries for scheduler regressions. In the tests, the boxes were handling live traffic over the course of several hours. Half the machines, the control, ran with CONFIG_PSI=n. For memcache I used eight machines total. They're 2-socket, 14 core, 56 thread boxes. The test runs for half the test period, flips the test and control kernels on the hardware to rule out HW factors, DC location etc., then runs the other half of the test. For the webservers, I used 32 machines total. They're single socket, 16 core, 32 thread machines. During the memcache test, CPU load was nopsi=78.05% psi=78.98% in the first half and nopsi=77.52% psi=78.25%, so PSI added between 0.7 and 0.9 percentage points to the CPU load, a difference of about 1%. UPDATE: I re-ran this test with the v3 version of this patch set and the CPU utilization was equivalent between test and control. UPDATE: v4 is on par with v3. As far as end-to-end request latency from the client perspective goes, we don't sample those finely enough to capture the requests going to those particular machines during the test, but we know the p50 turnaround time in this workload is 54us, and perf bench sched pipe on those machines show nopsi=5.232666 us/op and psi=5.587347 us/op, so this doesn't add much here either. The profile for the pipe benchmark shows: 0.87% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_group_change 0.83% perf.real [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_group_change 0.82% perf.real [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_task_change 0.58% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_task_change The webserver load is running inside 4 nested cgroup levels. The CPU load with both nopsi and psi kernels was indistinguishable at 81%. For comparison, we had to disable the cgroup cpu controller on the webservers because it added 4 percentage points to the CPU% during this same exact test. Versions of this accounting code now run on 80% of our fleet. None of our workloads have reported regressions during the rollout.

Nicely : done! This patch (of 9): If we keep just enough refault information to match the *current* page cache during reclaim time, we could lose a lot of events when there is only a temporary spike in non-cache memory consumption that pushes out all the cache. Once cache comes back, we won't see those refaults. They might not be actionable for LRU aging, but we want to know about them for measuring memory pressure.
