psi: fix reference to kernel commandline enable

2018-12-14T23:05:45Z

The kernel commandline parameter named in CONFIG_PSI_DEFAULT_DISABLED help text contradicts the documentation in kernel-parameters.txt, and the code. Fix that.

psi: make disabling/enabling easier for vendor kernels

2018-11-30T22:56:14Z

Mel Gorman reports a hackbench regression with psi that would prohibit shipping the suse kernel with it default-enabled, but he'd still like users to be able to opt in at little to no cost to others. With the current combination of CONFIG_PSI and the psi_disabled bool set from the commandline, this is a challenge. Do the following things to make it easier: 1. Add a config option CONFIG_PSI_DEFAULT_DISABLED that allows distros to enable CONFIG_PSI in their kernel but leave the feature disabled unless a user requests it at boot-time. To avoid double negatives, rename psi_disabled= to psi=. 2. Make psi_disabled a static branch to eliminate any branch costs when the feature is disabled. In terms of numbers before and after this patch, Mel says: : The following is a comparision using CONFIG_PSI=n as a baseline against : your patch and a vanilla kernel : : 4.20.0-rc4 4.20.0-rc4 4.20.0-rc4 : kconfigdisable-v1r1 vanilla psidisable-v1r1 : Amean 1 1.3100 ( 0.00%) 1.3923 ( -6.28%) 1.3427 ( -2.49%) : Amean 3 3.8860 ( 0.00%) 4.1230 * -6.10%* 3.8860 ( -0.00%) : Amean 5 6.8847 ( 0.00%) 8.0390 * -16.77%* 6.7727 ( 1.63%) : Amean 7 9.9310 ( 0.00%) 10.8367 * -9.12%* 9.9910 ( -0.60%) : Amean 12 16.6577 ( 0.00%) 18.2363 * -9.48%* 17.1083 ( -2.71%) : Amean 18 26.5133 ( 0.00%) 27.8833 * -5.17%* 25.7663 ( 2.82%) : Amean 24 34.3003 ( 0.00%) 34.6830 ( -1.12%) 32.0450 ( 6.58%) : Amean 30 40.0063 ( 0.00%) 40.5800 ( -1.43%) 41.5087 ( -3.76%) : Amean 32 40.1407 ( 0.00%) 41.2273 ( -2.71%) 39.9417 ( 0.50%) : : It's showing that the vanilla kernel takes a hit (as the bisection : indicated it would) and that disabling PSI by default is reasonably : close in terms of performance for this particular workload on this : particular machine so; Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181127165329.GA29728@cmpxchg.org Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner Tested-by: Mel Gorman Reported-by: Mel Gorman Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

psi: cgroup support

2018-10-26T23:26:32Z

On a system that executes multiple cgrouped jobs and independent workloads, we don't just care about the health of the overall system, but also that of individual jobs, so that we can ensure individual job health, fairness between jobs, or prioritize some jobs over others. This patch implements pressure stall tracking for cgroups. In kernels with CONFIG_PSI=y, cgroup2 groups will have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure, and io.pressure files that track aggregate pressure stall times for only the tasks inside the cgroup.

psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO

2018-10-26T23:26:32Z

When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close the system is to lockups and OOM kills. In particular, when machines work multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency and throughput on the individual job can be enormous. In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way to quantify resource pressure in the system. A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO, respectively. Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay accounting delays: cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache io: tasks are waiting for io completions These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages, and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss incurred by resource overcommit. They can also indicate when the system is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs. To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU and samples the time they spend in stall states. Every 2 seconds, the samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of walltime. A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s, 1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

sched/pelt: Fix warning and clean up IRQ PELT config

2018-10-02T07:45:00Z

Create a config for enabling irq load tracking in the scheduler. irq load tracking is useful only when irq or paravirtual time is accounted but it's only possible with SMP for now. Also use __maybe_unused to remove the compilation warning in update_rq_clock_task() that has been introduced by: 2e62c4743adc ("sched/fair: Remove #ifdefs from scale_rt_capacity()") Suggested-by: Ingo Molnar Reported-by: Dou Liyang Reported-by: Miguel Ojeda Signed-off-by: Vincent Guittot Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Cc: Linus Torvalds Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: bp@alien8.de Cc: dou_liyang@163.com Fixes: 2e62c4743adc ("sched/fair: Remove #ifdefs from scale_rt_capacity()") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1537867062-27285-1-git-send-email-vincent.guittot@linaro.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

init/Kconfig: remove EXPERT from CHECKPOINT_RESTORE

2018-08-22T17:52:51Z

The CHECKPOINT_RESTORE configuration option was introduced in 2012 and combined with EXPERT. CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is already enabled in many distribution kernels and also part of the defconfigs of various architectures. To make it easier for distributions to enable CHECKPOINT_RESTORE this removes EXPERT and moves the configuration option out of the EXPERT block.
