13 years agowriteback: per task dirty rate limit

writeback: per task dirty rate limit

Add two fields to task_struct.

1) account dirtied pages in the individual tasks, for accuracy
2) per-task balance_dirty_pages() call intervals, for flexibility

The balance_dirty_pages() call interval (ie. nr_dirtied_pause) will
scale near-sqrt to the safety gap between dirty pages and threshold.

The main problem of per-task nr_dirtied is, if 1k+ tasks start dirtying
pages at exactly the same time, each task will be assigned a large
initial nr_dirtied_pause, so that the dirty threshold will be exceeded
long before each task reached its nr_dirtied_pause and hence call
balance_dirty_pages().

The solution is to watch for the number of pages dirtied on each CPU in
between the calls into balance_dirty_pages(). If it exceeds ratelimit_pages
(3% dirty threshold), force call balance_dirty_pages() for a chance to
set bdi->dirty_exceeded. In normal situations, this safeguarding
condition is not expected to trigger at all.

On the sqrt in dirty_poll_interval():

It will serve as an initial guess when dirty pages are still in the
freerun area.

When dirty pages are floating inside the dirty control scope [freerun,
limit], a followup patch will use some refined dirty poll interval to
get the desired pause time.

   thresh-dirty (MB)    sqrt
   1      16
   2      22
   4      32
   8      45
  16      64
  32      90
  64     128
 128     181
 256     256
 512     362
1024     512

The above table means, given 1MB (or 1GB) gap and the dd tasks polling
balance_dirty_pages() on every 16 (or 512) pages, the dirty limit won't
be exceeded as long as there are less than 16 (or 512) concurrent dd's.

So sqrt naturally leads to less overheads and more safe concurrent tasks
for large memory servers, which have large (thresh-freerun) gaps.

13 years agowriteback: stabilize bdi->dirty_ratelimit
Wu Fengguang [Fri, 26 Aug 2011 21:53:24 +0000 (15:53 -0600)]
writeback: stabilize bdi->dirty_ratelimit

There are some imperfections in balanced_dirty_ratelimit.

1) large fluctuations

The dirty_rate used for computing balanced_dirty_ratelimit is merely
averaged in the past 200ms (very small comparing to the 3s estimation
period for write_bw), which makes rather dispersed distribution of
balanced_dirty_ratelimit.

It's pretty hard to average out the singular points by increasing the
estimation period. Considering that the averaging technique will
introduce very undesirable time lags, I give it up totally. (btw, the 3s
write_bw averaging time lag is much more acceptable because its impact
is one-way and therefore won't lead to oscillations.)

The more practical way is filtering -- most singular
balanced_dirty_ratelimit points can be filtered out by remembering some
prev_balanced_rate and prev_prev_balanced_rate. However the more
reliable way is to guard balanced_dirty_ratelimit with task_ratelimit.

2) due to truncates and fs redirties, the (write_bw <=> dirty_rate)
match could become unbalanced, which may lead to large systematical
errors in balanced_dirty_ratelimit. The truncates, due to its possibly
bumpy nature, can hardly be compensated smoothly. So let's face it. When
some over-estimated balanced_dirty_ratelimit brings dirty_ratelimit
high, dirty pages will go higher than the setpoint. task_ratelimit will
in turn become lower than dirty_ratelimit.  So if we consider both
balanced_dirty_ratelimit and task_ratelimit and update dirty_ratelimit
only when they are on the same side of dirty_ratelimit, the systematical
errors in balanced_dirty_ratelimit won't be able to bring
dirty_ratelimit far away.

The balanced_dirty_ratelimit estimation may also be inaccurate near
@limit or @freerun, however is less an issue.

3) since we ultimately want to

- keep the fluctuations of task ratelimit as small as possible
- keep the dirty pages around the setpoint as long time as possible

the update policy used for (2) also serves the above goals nicely:
if for some reason the dirty pages are high (task_ratelimit < dirty_ratelimit),
and dirty_ratelimit is low (dirty_ratelimit < balanced_dirty_ratelimit),
there is no point to bring up dirty_ratelimit in a hurry only to hurt
both the above two goals.

So, we make use of task_ratelimit to limit the update of dirty_ratelimit
in two ways:

1) avoid changing dirty rate when it's against the position control target
   (the adjusted rate will slow down the progress of dirty pages going
   back to setpoint).

2) limit the step size. task_ratelimit is changing values step by step,
   leaving a consistent trace comparing to the randomly jumping
   balanced_dirty_ratelimit. task_ratelimit also has the nice smaller
   errors in stable state and typically larger errors when there are big
   errors in rate.  So it's a pretty good limiting factor for the step
   size of dirty_ratelimit.

Note that bdi->dirty_ratelimit is always tracking balanced_dirty_ratelimit.
task_ratelimit is merely used as a limiting factor.

writeback: dirty rate control

It's all about bdi->dirty_ratelimit, which aims to be (write_bw / N)
when there are N dd tasks.

On write() syscall, use bdi->dirty_ratelimit
============================================

    balance_dirty_pages(pages_dirtied)
    {
        task_ratelimit = bdi->dirty_ratelimit * bdi_position_ratio();
        pause = pages_dirtied / task_ratelimit;
        sleep(pause);
    }

On every 200ms, update bdi->dirty_ratelimit
===========================================

    bdi_update_dirty_ratelimit()
    {
        task_ratelimit = bdi->dirty_ratelimit * bdi_position_ratio();
        balanced_dirty_ratelimit = task_ratelimit * write_bw / dirty_rate;
        bdi->dirty_ratelimit = balanced_dirty_ratelimit
    }

Estimation of balanced bdi->dirty_ratelimit
===========================================

balanced task_ratelimit
-----------------------

balance_dirty_pages() needs to throttle tasks dirtying pages such that
the total amount of dirty pages stays below the specified dirty limit in
order to avoid memory deadlocks. Furthermore we desire fairness in that
tasks get throttled proportionally to the amount of pages they dirty.

IOW we want to throttle tasks such that we match the dirty rate to the
writeout bandwidth, this yields a stable amount of dirty pages:

        dirty_rate == write_bw                                          (1)

The fairness requirement gives us:

        task_ratelimit = balanced_dirty_ratelimit
                       == write_bw / N                                  (2)

where N is the number of dd tasks.  We don't know N beforehand, but
still can estimate balanced_dirty_ratelimit within 200ms.

Start by throttling each dd task at rate

        task_ratelimit = task_ratelimit_0                               (3)
                         (any non-zero initial value is OK)

After 200ms, we measured

        dirty_rate = # of pages dirtied by all dd's / 200ms
        write_bw   = # of pages written to the disk / 200ms

For the aggressive dd dirtiers, the equality holds

        dirty_rate == N * task_rate
                   == N * task_ratelimit_0                              (4)
Or
        task_ratelimit_0 == dirty_rate / N                              (5)

Now we conclude that the balanced task ratelimit can be estimated by

                                                      write_bw
        balanced_dirty_ratelimit = task_ratelimit_0 * ----------        (6)
                                                      dirty_rate

Because with (4) and (5) we can get the desired equality (1):

                                                       write_bw
        balanced_dirty_ratelimit == (dirty_rate / N) * ----------
                                                       dirty_rate
                                 == write_bw / N

Then using the balanced task ratelimit we can compute task pause times like:

        task_pause = task->nr_dirtied / task_ratelimit

task_ratelimit with position control
------------------------------------

However, while the above gives us means of matching the dirty rate to
the writeout bandwidth, it at best provides us with a stable dirty page
count (assuming a static system). In order to control the dirty page
count such that it is high enough to provide performance, but does not
exceed the specified limit we need another control.

The dirty position control works by extending (2) to

        task_ratelimit = balanced_dirty_ratelimit * pos_ratio           (7)

where pos_ratio is a negative feedback function that subjects to

1) f(setpoint) = 1.0
2) df/dx < 0

That is, if the dirty pages are ABOVE the setpoint, we throttle each
task a bit more HEAVY than balanced_dirty_ratelimit, so that the dirty
pages are created less fast than they are cleaned, thus DROP to the
setpoints (and the reverse).

Based on (7) and the assumption that both dirty_ratelimit and pos_ratio
remains CONSTANT for the past 200ms, we get

        task_ratelimit_0 = balanced_dirty_ratelimit * pos_ratio         (8)

Putting (8) into (6), we get the formula used in
bdi_update_dirty_ratelimit():

                                                write_bw
        balanced_dirty_ratelimit *= pos_ratio * ----------              (9)
                                                dirty_rate

The slope of the bdi control line should be

1) large enough to pull the dirty pages to setpoint reasonably fast

2) small enough to avoid big fluctuations in the resulted pos_ratio and
   hence task ratelimit

Since the fluctuation range of the bdi dirty pages is typically observed
to be within 1-second worth of data, the bdi control line's slope is
selected to be a linear function of bdi write bandwidth, so that it can
adapt to slow/fast storage devices well.

Assume the bdi control line

pos_ratio = 1.0 + k * (dirty - bdi_setpoint)

where k is the negative slope.

If targeting for 12.5% fluctuation range in pos_ratio when dirty pages
are fluctuating in range

[bdi_setpoint - write_bw/2, bdi_setpoint + write_bw/2],

we get slope

k = - 1 / (8 * write_bw)

Let pos_ratio(x_intercept) = 0, we get the parameter used in code:

x_intercept = bdi_setpoint + 8 * write_bw

The global/bdi slopes are nicely complementing each other when the
system has only one major bdi (indicated by bdi_thresh ~= thresh):

1) slope of global control line    => scaling to the control scope size
2) slope of main bdi control line  => scaling to the writeout bandwidth

so that

- in memory tight systems, (1) becomes strong enough to squeeze dirty
  pages inside the control scope

- in large memory systems where the "gravity" of (1) for pulling the
  dirty pages to setpoint is too weak, (2) can back (1) up and drive
  dirty pages to bdi_setpoint ~= setpoint reasonably fast.

Unfortunately in JBOD setups, the fluctuation range of bdi threshold
is related to memory size due to the interferences between disks.  In
this case, the bdi slope will be weighted sum of write_bw and bdi_thresh.

Given equations

        span = x_intercept - bdi_setpoint
        k = df/dx = - 1 / span

and the extremum values

        span = bdi_thresh
        dx = bdi_thresh

we get

        df = - dx / span = - 1.0

That means, when bdi_dirty deviates bdi_thresh up, pos_ratio and hence
task ratelimit will fluctuate by -100%.

or otherwise) into account. We can cure this by using
task_sched_runtime() at the cost of having to take locks.

This also means we can (and must) do away with
thread_group_sched_runtime() since the modified thread_group_cputime()
is now more accurate and would deadlock when called from
thread_group_sched_runtime().

Aside of that it makes the function safe on 32 bit systems. The old
code added t->se.sum_exec_runtime unprotected. sum_exec_runtime is a
64bit value and could be changed on another cpu at the same time.

Resource: fix wrong resource window calculation

__find_resource() incorrectly returns a resource window which overlaps
an existing allocated window.  This happens when the parent's
resource-window spans 0x00000000 to 0xffffffff and is entirely allocated
to all its children resource-windows.

__find_resource() looks for gaps in resource allocation among the
children resource windows.  When it encounters the last child window it
blindly tries the range next to one allocated to the last child.  Since
the last child's window ends at 0xffffffff the calculation overflows,
leading the algorithm to believe that any window in the range 0x0000000
to 0xfffffff is available for allocation.  This leads to a conflicting
window allocation.

So maybe we could start usermodehelper_enable a little early to make
some task work that need eary init with the help of user mode.

[ I would *really* prefer that initcalls not call into user space - even
  the real 'init' hasn't been execve'd yet, after all! But for uvesafb
  it really does look like we don't have much choice.

  I considered doing this when we mount the root filesystem, but
  depending on config options that is in multiple places.  We could do
  the usermode helper enable as a rootfs_initcall()..

sparc64: Force the execute bit in OpenFirmware's translation entries.

In the OF 'translations' property, the template TTEs in the mappings
never specify the executable bit.  This is the case even though some
of these mappings are for OF's code segment.

Therefore, we need to force the execute bit on in every mapping.

This problem can only really trigger on Niagara/sun4v machines and the
history behind this is a little complicated.

Previous to sun4v, the sun4u TTE entries lacked a hardware execute
permission bit.  So OF didn't have to ever worry about setting
anything to handle executable pages.  Any valid TTE loaded into the
I-TLB would be respected by the chip.

But sun4v Niagara chips have a real hardware enforced executable bit
in their TTEs.  So it has to be set or else the I-TLB throws an
instruction access exception with type code 6 (protection violation).

We've been extremely fortunate to not get bitten by this in the past.

The best I can tell is that the OF's mappings for it's executable code
were mapped using permanent locked mappings on sun4v in the past.
Therefore, the fact that we didn't have the exec bit set in the OF
translations we would use did not matter in practice.

Thanks to Greg Onufer for helping me track this down.

bootup: move 'usermodehelper_enable()' to the end of do_basic_setup()

Doing it just before starting to call into cpu_idle() made a sick kind
of sense only because the original bug we fixed (see commit
288d5abec831: "Boot up with usermodehelper disabled") was about problems
with some scheduler data structures not being initialized, and they had
better be initialized at that point.

But it really didn't make any other conceptual sense, and doing it after
the initial "schedule()" call for the idle thread actually opened up a
race: what if the main initialization thread did everything without
needing to sleep, and got all the way into user land too? Without
actually having scheduled back to the idle thread?

Now, in normal circumstances that doesn't ever happen, but it looks like
Richard Cochran triggered exactly that on his ARM IXP4xx machines:

  "I have some ARM IXP4xx based machines that use the two on chip MAC
   ports (aka NPEs).  The NPE needs a firmware in order to function.
   Ever since the following commit [that 288d5abec831 one], it is no
   longer possible to bring up the interfaces during the init scripts."

with a call trace showing an ioctl coming from user space. Richard says:

  "The init is busybox, and the startup script does mount, syslogd, and
   then ifup, so that all can go by quickly."

The fix is to move the usermodehelper_enable() into the main 'init'
thread, and just put it after we've done all our initcalls.  By then,
everything really should be up, but we've obviously not actually started
the user-mode portion of init yet.

That flag no longer makes sense, since we don't look up automount points
as eagerly any more.  Additionally, it turns out that the NO_AUTOMOUNT
handling was buggy to begin with: it would avoid automounting even for
cases where we really *needed* to do the automount handling, and could
return ENOENT for autofs entries that hadn't been instantiated yet.

With our new non-eager automount semantics, one discussion has been
about adding a AT_AUTOMOUNT flag to vfs_fstatat (and thus the
newfstatat() and fstatat64() system calls), but it's probably not worth
it: you can always force at least directory automounting by simply
adding the final '/' to the filename, which works for *all* of the stat
family system calls, old and new.

So AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT (and thus LOOKUP_NO_AUTOMOUNT) really were just a
result of our bad default behavior.

vfs pathname lookup: Add LOOKUP_AUTOMOUNT flag

Since we've now turned around and made LOOKUP_FOLLOW *not* force an
automount, we want to add the ability to force an automount event on
lookup even if we don't happen to have one of the other flags that force
it implicitly (LOOKUP_OPEN, LOOKUP_DIRECTORY, LOOKUP_PARENT..)

Most cases will never want to use this, since you'd normally want to
delay automounting as long as possible, which usually implies
LOOKUP_OPEN (when we open a file or directory, we really cannot avoid
the automount any more).

But Trond argued sufficiently forcefully that at a minimum bind mounting
a file and quotactl will want to force the automount lookup.  Some other
cases (like nfs_follow_remote_path()) could use it too, although
LOOKUP_DIRECTORY would work there as well.

This commit just adds the flag and logic, no users yet, though.  It also
doesn't actually touch the LOOKUP_NO_AUTOMOUNT flag that is related, and
was made irrelevant by the same change that made us not follow on
LOOKUP_FOLLOW.

PM / Clocks: Do not acquire a mutex under a spinlock

Commit b7ab83e (PM: Use spinlock instead of mutex in clock
management functions) introduced a regression causing clocks_mutex
to be acquired under a spinlock.  This happens because
pm_clk_suspend() and pm_clk_resume() call pm_clk_acquire() under
pcd->lock, but pm_clk_acquire() executes clk_get() which causes
clocks_mutex to be acquired.  Similarly, __pm_clk_remove(),
executed under pcd->lock, calls clk_put(), which also causes
clocks_mutex to be acquired.

To fix those problems make pm_clk_add() call pm_clk_acquire(), so
that pm_clk_suspend() and pm_clk_resume() don't have to do that.
Change pm_clk_remove() and pm_clk_destroy() to separate
modifications of the pcd->clock_list list from the actual removal of
PM clock entry objects done by __pm_clk_remove().

--- Exception: c01 (System Call) at 00000080da560cfc

The root cause was an EEH error, which sent us down the offload_close path in
the cxgb3 driver, which in turn sets cdev->l2opt to NULL, without regard for
upper layer driver (like the cxgbi drivers) which might have execution contexts
in the middle of its use. The result is the oops above, when t3_l2t_get attempts
to dereference L2DATA(cdev)->nentries in arp_hash right after the EEH error handler sets it to NULL.

The fix is to prevent the setting of the NULL pointer until after there are no
further users of it.  The t3cdev->l2opt pointer is now converted to be an rcu
pointer and the L2DATA macro is now called under the protection of the
rcu_read_lock().  When the EEH error path:
t3_adapter_error->offload_close->cxgb3_offload_deactivate
Is exectured, setting of that l2opt pointer to NULL, is now gated on an rcu
quiescence point, preventing, allowing L2DATA callers to safely check for a NULL
pointer without concern that the underlying data will be freeded before the
pointer is dereferenced.

This has been tested by the reporter and shown to fix the reproted oops

Buildid can vary in size. According to the man page of ld, buildid can
be 160 bits (sha1) or 128 bits (md5, uuid). Perf assumes buildid size of
20 bytes (160 bits) regardless. When dealing with md5 buildids, it would
thus read more than needed and that would cause mismatches and samples
without symbols.

This patch fixes this by taking into account the actual buildid size as
encoded int he section header. The leftover bytes are also cleared.

This second version fixes a minor issue with the memset() base position.

13 years agoperf tool: Fix endianness handling of u32 data in samples
David Ahern [Tue, 6 Sep 2011 15:12:26 +0000 (09:12 -0600)]
perf tool: Fix endianness handling of u32 data in samples

Currently, analyzing PPC data files on x86 the cpu field is always 0 and
the tid and pid are backwards. For example, analyzing a PPC file on PPC
the pid/tid fields show:

        rsyslogd  1210/1212

and analyzing the same PPC file using an x86 perf binary shows:

        rsyslogd  1212/1210

The problem is that the swap_op method for samples is
perf_event__all64_swap which assumes all elements in the sample_data
struct are u64s. cpu, tid and pid are u32s and need to be handled
individually. Given that the swap is done before the sample is parsed,
the simplest solution is to undo the 64-bit swap of those elements when
the sample is parsed and do the proper swap.

The RAW data field is generic and perf cannot have programmatic knowledge
of how to treat that data. Instead a warning is given to the user.

Thanks to Anton Blanchard for providing a data file for a mult-CPU
PPC system so I could verify the fix for the CPU fields.

v3 -> v4:
- fixed use of WARN_ONCE

v2 -> v3:
- used WARN_ONCE for message regarding raw data
- removed struct wrapper around union
- fixed whitespace issues

v1 -> v2:
- added a union for undoing the byte-swap on u64 and redoing swap on
  u32's to address compiler errors (see git commit 65014ab3)

13 years agoperf sort: Fix symbol sort output by separating unresolved samples by type
Anton Blanchard [Wed, 31 Aug 2011 01:51:45 +0000 (11:51 +1000)]
perf sort: Fix symbol sort output by separating unresolved samples by type

I took a profile that suggested 60% of total CPU time was in the
hypervisor:

...
    60.20%  [H] 0x33d43c
     4.43%  [k] ._spin_lock_irqsave
     1.07%  [k] ._spin_lock

Using perf stat to get the user/kernel/hypervisor breakdown contradicted
this.

The problem is we merge all unresolved samples into the one unknown
bucket. If add a comparison by sample type to sort__sym_cmp we get the
real picture:

...
    57.11%  [.] 0x80fbf63c
     4.43%  [k] ._spin_lock_irqsave
     1.07%  [k] ._spin_lock
     0.65%  [H] 0x33d43c

So it was almost all userspace, not hypervisor as the initial profile
suggested.

I found another issue while adding this. Symbol sorting sometimes shows
multiple entries for the unknown bucket:

...
    16.65%  [.] 0x6cd3a8
     7.25%  [.] 0x422460
     5.37%  [.] yylex
     4.79%  [.] malloc
     4.78%  [.] _int_malloc
     4.03%  [.] _int_free
     3.95%  [.] hash_source_code_string
     2.82%  [.] 0x532908
     2.64%  [.] 0x36b538
     0.94%  [H] 0x8000000000e132a4
     0.82%  [H] 0x800000000000e8b0

This happens because we aren't consistent with our sorting. On
one hand we check to see if both symbols match and for two unresolved
samples sym is NULL so we match:

        if (left->ms.sym == right->ms.sym)
                return 0;

On the other hand we use sample IP for unresolved samples when
comparing against a symbol:

       ip_l = left->ms.sym ? left->ms.sym->start : left->ip;
       ip_r = right->ms.sym ? right->ms.sym->start : right->ip;

This means unresolved samples end up spread across the rbtree and we
can't merge them all.

If we use cmp_null all unresolved samples will end up in the one bucket
and the output makes more sense:

...
    39.12%  [.] 0x36b538
     5.37%  [.] yylex
     4.79%  [.] malloc
     4.78%  [.] _int_malloc
     4.03%  [.] _int_free
     3.95%  [.] hash_source_code_string
     2.26%  [H] 0x800000000000e8b0

perf record: Create events initially disabled and enable after init

perf-record currently creates events enabled. When doing a system wide
collection (-a arg) this causes data collection for perf's
initialization activities -- eg., perf_event__synthesize_threads().

For some events (e.g., context switch S/W event or tracepoints like
syscalls) perf's initialization causes a lot of events to be captured
frequently generating "Check IO/CPU overload!" warnings on larger
systems (e.g., 2 socket, quad core, hyperthreading).

perf's initialization phase can be skipped by creating events
disabled and then enabling them once the initialization is done.
