mm: trace-vmscan-postprocess.pl: report the number of file/anon pages respectively
Until now, the reporting from trace-vmscan-postprocess.pl is not very useful because we cannot directly use this script for checking the file/anon ratio of scanning. This patch aims to report respectively the number of file/anon pages which were scanned/reclaimed by kswapd or direct-reclaim. Sample output is usually something like the following. Summary Direct reclaims: 8823 Direct reclaim pages scanned: 2438797 Direct reclaim file pages scanned: 1315200 Direct reclaim anon pages scanned: 1123597 Direct reclaim pages reclaimed: 446139 Direct reclaim file pages reclaimed: 378668 Direct reclaim anon pages reclaimed: 67471 Direct reclaim write file sync I/O: 0 Direct reclaim write anon sync I/O: 0 Direct reclaim write file async I/O: 0 Direct reclaim write anon async I/O: 4240 Wake kswapd requests: 122310 Time stalled direct reclaim: 13.78 seconds Kswapd wakeups: 25817 Kswapd pages scanned: 170779115 Kswapd file pages scanned: 162725123 Kswapd anon pages scanned: 8053992 Kswapd pages reclaimed: 129065738 Kswapd file pages reclaimed: 128500930 Kswapd anon pages reclaimed: 564808 Kswapd reclaim write file sync I/O: 0 Kswapd reclaim write anon sync I/O: 0 Kswapd reclaim write file async I/O: 36 Kswapd reclaim write anon async I/O: 730730 Time kswapd awake: 1015.50 seconds Signed-off-by: Chen Yucong <slaoub@gmail.com> Cc: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

mm:vmscan: update the trace-vmscan-postprocess.pl for event vmscan/mm_vmscan_lru_isolate
When using trace-vmscan-postprocess.pl for checking the file/anon rate
of scanning, we can find that it can not be performed. At the same
time, the following message will be reported:
WARNING: Format not as expected for event vmscan/mm_vmscan_lru_isolate
'file' != 'contig_taken' Fewer fields than expected in format at
./trace-vmscan-postprocess.pl line 171, <FORMAT> line 76.
In trace-vmscan-postprocess.pl, (contig_taken, contig_dirty, and
contig_failed) are be associated respectively to (nr_lumpy_taken,
nr_lumpy_dirty, and nr_lumpy_failed) for lumpy reclaim. Via commit

mm-tracepoint: rename page-free events
Rename mm_page_free_direct into mm_page_free and mm_pagevec_free into mm_page_free_batched Since v2.6.33-5426-gc475dab the kernel triggers mm_page_free_direct for all freed pages, not only for directly freed. So, let's name it properly. For pages freed via page-list we also trigger mm_page_free_batched event.

mm: change isolate mode from #define to bitwise type
Change ISOLATE_XXX macro with bitwise isolate_mode_t type. Normally, macro isn't recommended as it's type-unsafe and making debugging harder as symbol cannot be passed throught to the debugger. Quote from Johannes " Hmm, it would probably be cleaner to fully convert the isolation mode into independent flags. INACTIVE, ACTIVE, BOTH is currently a tri-state among flags, which is a bit ugly."

mm: vmscan: tracepoint: account for scanned pages similarly for both ftrace and vmstat
When correlating ftrace results with /proc/vmstat, I noticed that the reporting scripts value for "pages scanned" differed significantly. Both values were "right" depending on how you look at it. The difference is due to vmstat only counting scanning of the inactive list towards pages scanned. The analysis script for the tracepoint counts active and inactive list yielding a far higher value than vmstat. The resulting scanning/reclaim ratio looks much worse. The tracepoint is ok but this patch updates the reporting script so that the report values for scanned are similar to vmstat.

tracing, vmscan: add trace events for LRU list shrinking
There have been numerous reports of stalls that pointed at the problem
being somewhere in the VM. There are multiple roots to the problems which
means dealing with any of the root problems in isolation is tricky to
justify on their own and they would still need integration testing. This
patch series puts together two different patch sets which in combination
should tackle some of the root causes of latency problems being reported.
Patch 1 adds a tracepoint for shrink_inactive_list. For this series, the
most important results is being able to calculate the scanning/reclaim
ratio as a measure of the amount of work being done by page reclaim.
Patch 2 accounts for time spent in congestion_wait.
Patches 3-6 were originally developed by Kosaki Motohiro but reworked for
this series. It has been noted that lumpy reclaim is far too aggressive
and trashes the system somewhat. As SLUB uses high-order allocations, a
large cost incurred by lumpy reclaim will be noticeable. It was also
reported during transparent hugepage support testing that lumpy reclaim
was trashing the system and these patches should mitigate that problem
without disabling lumpy reclaim.
Patch 7 adds wait_iff_congested() and replaces some callers of
congestion_wait(). wait_iff_congested() only sleeps if there is a BDI
that is currently congested. Patch 8 notes that any BDI being congested
is not necessarily a problem because there could be multiple BDIs of
varying speeds and numberous zones. It attempts to track when a zone
being reclaimed contains many pages backed by a congested BDI and if so,
reclaimers wait on the congestion queue.
I ran a number of tests with monitoring on X86, X86-64 and PPC64. Each
machine had 3G of RAM and the CPUs were
X86: Intel P4 2-core
X86-64: AMD Phenom 4-core
PPC64: PPC970MP
Each used a single disk and the onboard IO controller. Dirty ratio was
left at 20. I'm just going to report for X86-64 and PPC64 in a vague
attempt to keep this report short. Four kernels were tested each based on
v2.6.36-rc4
traceonly-v2r2: Patches 1 and 2 to instrument vmscan reclaims and congestion_wait
lowlumpy-v2r3: Patches 1-6 to test if lumpy reclaim is better
waitcongest-v2r3: Patches 1-7 to only wait on congestion
waitwriteback-v2r4: Patches 1-8 to detect when a zone is congested
nocongest-v1r5: Patches 1-3 for testing wait_iff_congestion
nodirect-v1r5: Patches 1-10 to disable filesystem writeback for better IO
The tests run were as follows
kernbench
compile-based benchmark. Smoke test performance
sysbench
OLTP read-only benchmark. Will be re-run in the future as read-write
micro-mapped-file-stream
This is a micro-benchmark from Johannes Weiner that accesses a
large sparse-file through mmap(). It was configured to run in only
single-CPU mode but can be indicative of how well page reclaim
identifies suitable pages.
stress-highalloc
Tries to allocate huge pages under heavy load.
kernbench, iozone and sysbench did not report any performance regression
on any machine. sysbench did pressure the system lightly and there was
reclaim activity but there were no difference of major interest between
the kernels.

These are based on the raw figures taken from /proc/vmstat. It's a rough
measure of reclaim activity. Note that allocstall counts are higher
because we are entering direct reclaim more often as a result of not
sleeping in congestion. In itself, it's not necessarily a bad thing.
It's easier to get a view of what happened from the vmscan tracepoint
report.

vmscan: tracing: add a postprocessing script for reclaim-related ftrace events
Add a simple post-processing script for the reclaim-related trace events. It can be used to give an indication of how much traffic there is on the LRU lists and how severe latencies due to reclaim are.

tracing, page-allocator: add a postprocessing script for page-allocator-related ftrace events
This patch adds a simple post-processing script for the
page-allocator-related trace events. It can be used to give an indication
of who the most allocator-intensive processes are and how often the zone
lock was taken during the tracing period. Example output looks like
Process Pages Pages Pages Pages PCPU PCPU PCPU Fragment Fragment MigType Fragment Fragment Unknown
details allocd allocd freed freed pages drains refills Fallback Causing Changed Severe Moderate
under lock direct pagevec drain
swapper-0 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

khelper-12 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Optionally, the output can include information on the parent or aggregate
based on process name instead of aggregating based on each pid. Example output
including parent information and stripped out the PID looks something like;
Process Pages Pages Pages Pages PCPU PCPU PCPU Fragment Fragment MigType Fragment Fragment Unknown
details allocd allocd freed freed pages drains refills Fallback Causing Changed Severe Moderate
under lock direct pagevec drain
gdm-3756 :: Xorg-3770 3796 2976 99 3813 3224 104 98 0 0 0 0 0 0
init-1 :: hald-3892 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
git-21447 :: editor-21448 4 0 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
This says that Xorg allocated 3796 pages and it's parent process is gdm
with a PID of 3756;
The postprocessor parses the text output of tracing. While there is a
binary format, the expectation is that the binary output can be readily
translated into text and post-processed offline. Obviously if the text
format changes, the parser will break but the regular expression parser is
fairly rudimentary so should be readily adjustable.
