I think you are right about page cache.

The OOM happens when I forget to set TMPDIR, so the bitmaps and my (-e) pfn file are going right into memory. > >It writes a 3.5G dump in about 800 seconds. > >So there is definitely a big advantage to cached i/o and cyclic mode. > > > >If I use both -e and -j it writes a 440M dump in 430 seconds. > >This is therefore the fastest way to dump a large memory, even though it is > >using direct i/o.

In cyclic mode it writes a 13.8G dump in 3400 seconds. Using -e (which triggers non-cyclic mode) it writes a 1.6G dump in 729 seconds. I'm not using direct i/o with the -e, and am not getting any OOM. So that's why I think you are right about page cache. I'll have to prove it with a 32TB or 64TB memory. Both of the above are using buffered i/o so the write performance is about equal. The cyclic scan/copy phase is writing over 8 times the data in about 10 times (2980/280 copy times) the time. > >It's not very easy to do, however.

Thinking about what has to be done to not dump unused vmemmap page structures, I do not think it can be done in cyclic mode. By the time we get to the point where we can compare part of the present-page map to the same part of the dumpable-page map and compute the system page structures that do not need to be dumped, we may have already written them. > So I think it would be better to enable the -e option only if there is enough > memory space or --work-dir is specified. Now, in the devel branch, you can > distinguish it by info->flag_cyclic. If info->flag_cyclic is false, it means > the whole bitmaps can be held at one time like old non-cyclic mode. If writing of the dump file is not filling page cache, and the bit maps are being written to the root filesystem (not tmpfs), it looks like we can use non-cyclic mode even in a restricted crash kernel size such as 450M. Again, I have to test on an even bigger machine. But considering that dumping 8TB takes 12 minutes with the -e option vs. 50 minutes without it, I would say that it is almost indispensible for very large systems. But it's looking like we can indeed get along just fine without direct i/o. -Cliff > > > Thanks > Atsushi Kumagai > > >-Cliff > > > >On Tue, Jul 07, 2015 at 07:42:26AM +0000, Atsushi Kumagai wrote: > >> Hello Cliff, > >> > >> Did you overlook my comment below ? > >> > >> - http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2015-May/013823.html > >> I understood that you suggested direct I/O to reduce the memory > >> consumption without multi cycle processing, but I don't understand > >> the actual benefit yet because page cache is reclaimable and it's > >> generally usable.
