[PATCH v10 08/14] x86/sgx: Add basic EPC reclamation flow for cgroup

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Kristen Carlson Accardi <kristen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When a cgroup usage reaches its limit, and it is to be charged, i.e.,
sgx_cgroup_try_charge() called for new allocations, the cgroup needs to
reclaim pages from its LRU or LRUs of its descendants to make room for
any new allocations. This patch adds the basic building block for the
per-cgroup reclamation flow and use it for synchronous reclamation in
sgx_cgroup_try_charge().

First, modify sgx_reclaim_pages() to let callers to pass in the LRU from
which pages are reclaimed, so it can be reused by both the global and
cgroup reclaimers. Also return the number of pages attempted, so a
cgroup reclaimer can use it to track reclamation progress from its
descendants.

For the global reclaimer, replace all call sites of sgx_reclaim_pages()
with calls to a newly created wrapper, sgx_reclaim_pages_global(), which
just calls sgx_reclaim_pages() with the global LRU passed in.

For cgroup reclamation, implement a basic reclamation flow, encapsulated
in the top-level function, sgx_cgroup_reclaim_pages(). It performs a
pre-order walk on a given cgroup subtree, and calls sgx_reclaim_pages()
at each node passing in the LRU of that node. It keeps track of total
attempted pages and stops the walk if desired number of pages are
attempted.

Finally, pass a parameter to sgx_cgroup_try_charge() to indicate whether
a synchronous reclamation is allowed. If the caller allows and cgroup
usage is at its limit, trigger the synchronous reclamation by calling
sgx_cgroup_reclaim_pages() in a loop with cond_resched() in between
iterations.

A later patch will add support for asynchronous reclamation reusing
sgx_cgroup_reclaim_pages().

V10:
- Simplify the signature by removing a pointer to nr_to_scan (Kai)
- Return pages attempted instead of reclaimed as it is really what the
cgroup caller needs to track progress. This further simplifies the design.
- Merge patch for exposing sgx_reclaim_pages() with basic synchronous
reclamation. (Kai)
- Shorten names for EPC cgroup functions. (Jarkko)
- Fix/add comments to justify the design (Kai)
- Separate out a helper for for addressing single iteration of the loop
in sgx_cgroup_try_charge(). (Jarkko)

V9:
- Add comments for static variables. (Jarkko)

V8:
- Use width of 80 characters in text paragraphs. (Jarkko)
- Remove alignment for substructure variables. (Jarkko)

V7:
- Reworked from patch 9 of V6, "x86/sgx: Restructure top-level EPC reclaim
function". Do not split the top level function (Kai)
- Dropped patches 7 and 8 of V6.
- Split this out from the big patch, #10 in V6. (Dave, Kai)
