[PATCH] generic: test swapping process pages in and out of a swapfile

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

 



From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx>

This test is intended to perform minimal spot-checking that we can swap
pages to a swapfile and recall them into memory without burning peoples'
machines to the ground.

+# Test swapping process pages in and out of a swapfile.  Because we cannot
+# direct the virtual memory manager to flush pages to swap and do not wish to
+# spend a large amount of time flooding the system with dirty anonymous pages,
+# some trickery is employed here to speed things up.
+#
+# Specifically, this test employs the memory cgroup controller to run a modest
+# memory consuming process with an artificially low limit on the amount of
+# physical memory that it can use.  Combined with swap files configured with
+# maximum priority, the hope is that the mem-user process will get paged out
+# to the swapfile and some clever uses of swapon/swapoff will force it to be
+# paged back in.
+#
+# Note that we use systemd-run to configure the memory controller so that we
+# don't have to open-code all the cgroupv1 and cgroupv2 configuration logic in
+# the form of shell scripts.
