    memcg: add the pagefault count into memcg stats · 456f998e
    Ying Han 提交于
    Two new stats in per-memcg memory.stat which tracks the number of page
    faults and number of major page faults.
    
      "pgfault"
      "pgmajfault"
    
    They are different from "pgpgin"/"pgpgout" stat which count number of
    pages charged/discharged to the cgroup and have no meaning of reading/
    writing page to disk.
    
    It is valuable to track the two stats for both measuring application's
    performance as well as the efficiency of the kernel page reclaim path.
    Counting pagefaults per process is useful, but we also need the aggregated
    value since processes are monitored and controlled in cgroup basis in
    memcg.
    
    Functional test: check the total number of pgfault/pgmajfault of all
    memcgs and compare with global vmstat value:
    
      $ cat /proc/vmstat | grep fault
      pgfault 1070751
      pgmajfault 553
    
      $ cat /dev/cgroup/memory.stat | grep fault
      pgfault 1071138
      pgmajfault 553
      total_pgfault 1071142
      total_pgmajfault 553
    
      $ cat /dev/cgroup/A/memory.stat | grep fault
      pgfault 199
      pgmajfault 0
      total_pgfault 199
      total_pgmajfault 0
    
    Performance test: run page fault test(pft) wit 16 thread on faulting in
    15G anon pages in 16G container.  There is no regression noticed on the
    "flt/cpu/s"
    
    Sample output from pft:
    
      TAG pft:anon-sys-default:
        Gb  Thr CLine   User     System     Wall    flt/cpu/s fault/wsec
        15   16   1     0.67s   233.41s    14.76s   16798.546 266356.260
