[PATCH 1/1] mm: introduce MADV_DEMOTE/MADV_PROMOTE

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

 



In a tiered memory architecture, when a process does not access memory
in the fast nodes for a long time, the kernel will demote the memory
to slower memory through a reclamation mechanism. This frees up the
fast memory for other processes. When the process accesses the demoted
memory again, the tiered memory system will, following certain
policies, promote it back to fast memory. Since memory demotion and
promotion in a tiered memory system do not occur instantly but require
a gradual process, this can severely impact the performance of programs
in high-performance computing scenarios.

This patch introduces new MADV_DEMOTE and MADV_PROMOTE hints to the
madvise syscall. MADV_DEMOTE can mark a range of memory pages as cold
pages and immediately demote them to slow memory. MADV_PROMOTE can mark
a range of memory pages as hot pages and immediately promote them to
fast memory, allowing applications to better balance large memory
capacity with latency.
