From 2ad657802244d3ff515b4040ac1d9b41faf8d239 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yu Zhao Date: Sun, 18 Sep 2022 02:00:08 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] UPSTREAM: mm: multi-gen LRU: thrashing prevention MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Add /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/min_ttl_ms for thrashing prevention, as requested by many desktop users [1]. When set to value N, it prevents the working set of N milliseconds from getting evicted. The OOM killer is triggered if this working set cannot be kept in memory. Based on the average human detectable lag (~100ms), N=1000 usually eliminates intolerable lags due to thrashing. Larger values like N=3000 make lags less noticeable at the risk of premature OOM kills. Compared with the size-based approach [2], this time-based approach has the following advantages: 1. It is easier to configure because it is agnostic to applications and memory sizes. 2. It is more reliable because it is directly wired to the OOM killer.
