      writeback, memcg: Implement foreign dirty flushing · 97b27821
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      There's an inherent mismatch between memcg and writeback.  The former
trackes ownership per-page while the latter per-inode.  This was a
deliberate design decision because honoring per-page ownership in the
writeback path is complicated, may lead to higher CPU and IO overheads
and deemed unnecessary given that write-sharing an inode across
different cgroups isn't a common use-case.

Combined with inode majority-writer ownership switching, this works
well enough in most cases but there are some pathological cases.  For
example, let's say there are two cgroups A and B which keep writing to
different but confined parts of the same inode.  B owns the inode and
A's memory is limited far below B's.  A's dirty ratio can rise enough
to trigger balance_dirty_pages() sleeps but B's can be low enough to
avoid triggering background writeback.  A will be slowed down without
a way to make writeback of the dirty pages happen.

This patch implements foreign dirty recording and foreign mechanism so
that when a memcg encounters a condition as above it can trigger
flushes on bdi_writebacks which can clean its pages.  Please see the
comment on top of mem_cgroup_track_foreign_dirty_slowpath() for
details.

A reproducer follows.

  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <stdlib.h>
  #include <unistd.h>
  #include <fcntl.h>
  #include <sys/types.h>

  static const char *usage = "write-range FILE START SIZE\n";

  int main(int argc, char **argv)
  {
	  int fd;
	  unsigned long start, size, end, pos;
	  char *endp;
	  char buf[4096];

	  if (argc < 4) {
		  fprintf(stderr, usage);
		  return 1;
	  }

	  fd = open(argv[1], O_WRONLY);
	  if (fd < 0) {
		  perror("open");
		  return 1;
	  }

	  start = strtoul(argv[2], &endp, 0);
	  if (*endp != '\0') {
		  fprintf(stderr, usage);
		  return 1;
	  }

	  size = strtoul(argv[3], &endp, 0);
	  if (*endp != '\0') {
		  fprintf(stderr, usage);
		  return 1;
	  }

	  end = start + size;

	  while (1) {
		  for (pos = start; pos < end; ) {
			  long bread, bwritten = 0;

			  if (lseek(fd, pos, SEEK_SET) < 0) {
				  perror("lseek");
				  return 1;
			  }

			  bread = read(0, buf, sizeof(buf) < end - pos ?
					       sizeof(buf) : end - pos);
			  if (bread < 0) {
				  perror("read");
				  return 1;
			  }
			  if (bread == 0)
				  return 0;

			  while (bwritten < bread) {
				  long this;

				  this = write(fd, buf + bwritten,
					       bread - bwritten);
				  if (this < 0) {
					  perror("write");
					  return 1;
				  }

				  bwritten += this;
				  pos += bwritten;
			  }
		  }
	  }
  }

v2: Added comments explaining why the specific intervals are being used.

v3: Use 0 @nr when calling cgroup_writeback_by_id() to use best-effort
    flushing while avoding possible livelocks.

v4: Use get_jiffies_64() and time_before/after64() instead of raw
    jiffies_64 and arthimetic comparisons as suggested by Jan.

      writeback, memcg: Implement cgroup_writeback_by_id() · d62241c7
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      Implement cgroup_writeback_by_id() which initiates cgroup writeback
from bdi and memcg IDs.  This will be used by memcg foreign inode
flushing.

v2: Use wb_get_lookup() instead of wb_get_create() to avoid creating
    spurious wbs.

v3: Interpret 0 @nr as 1.25 * nr_dirty to implement best-effort
    flushing while avoding possible livelocks.

      Separate out wb_get_lookup() which doesn't try to create one if there
isn't already one from wb_get_create().  This will be used by later

      bdi: Add bdi->id · 34f8fe50
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      There currently is no way to universally identify and lookup a bdi
without holding a reference and pointer to it.  This patch adds an
non-recycling bdi->id and implements bdi_get_by_id() which looks up
bdis by their ids.  This will be used by memcg foreign inode flushing.

I left bdi_list alone for simplicity and because while rb_tree does
support rcu assignment it doesn't seem to guarantee lossless walk when
walk is racing aginst tree rebalance operations.

      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      wb_completion is used to track writeback completions.  We want to use
it from memcg side for foreign inode flushes.  This patch updates it
to remember the target waitq instead of assuming bdi->wb_waitq and
expose it outside of fs-writeback.c.

      writeback, cgroup: inode_switch_wbs() shouldn't give up on wb_switch_rwsem trylock fail · 6444f47e
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      As inode wb switching may make sync(2) miss some inodes, they're
synchronized using wb_switch_rwsem so that no wb switching happens
while sync(2) is in progress.  In addition to synchronizing the actual
switching, the rwsem is also used to prevent queueing new switch
attempts while sync(2) is in progress.  This is to avoid queueing too
many instances while the rwsem is held by sync(2).  Unfortunately,
this is too agressive and can block wb switching for a long time if
sync(2) is frequent.

The goal is avoiding expolding the number of scheduled switches, not
avoiding scheduling anything.  Let's use wb_switch_rwsem only for
synchronizing the actual switching and sync(2) and use
isw_nr_in_flight instead for limiting the maximum number of scheduled
switches.  The limit is set to 1024 which should be more than enough
while still avoiding extreme situations.

      writeback, cgroup: Adjust WB_FRN_TIME_CUT_DIV to accelerate foreign inode switching · 55a694df
      由 Tejun Heo 提交于 
      WB_FRN_TIME_CUT_DIV is used to tell the foreign inode detection logic
to ignore short writeback rounds to prevent getting confused by a
burst of short writebacks.  The parameter is currently 2 meaning that
anything smaller than half of the running average writback duration
will be ignored.

This is unnecessarily aggressive.  The detection logic uses 16 history
slots and is already reasonably protected against some short bursts
confusing it and the current parameter can lead to tens of seconds of
missed detection depending on the writeback pattern.

Let's change the parameter to 8, so that it only ignores writeback
with are smaller than 12.5% of the current running average.

v2: Add comment explaining what's going on with the foreign detection
    parameters.
