From: Roman Gushchin <guro@xxxxxx> Subject: mm: memcontrol: use per-cpu stocks for socket memory uncharging We've noticed a quite sensible performance overhead on some hosts with significant network traffic when socket memory accounting is enabled. Perf top shows that socket memory uncharging path is hot: 2.13% [kernel] [k] page_counter_cancel 1.14% [kernel] [k] __sk_mem_reduce_allocated 1.14% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock 0.87% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave 0.84% [kernel] [k] tcp_ack 0.84% [kernel] [k] ixgbe_poll 0.83% < workload > 0.82% [kernel] [k] enqueue_entity 0.68% [kernel] [k] __fget 0.68% [kernel] [k] tcp_delack_timer_handler 0.67% [kernel] [k] __schedule 0.60% < workload > 0.59% [kernel] [k] __inet6_lookup_established 0.55% [kernel] [k] __switch_to 0.55% [kernel] [k] menu_select 0.54% libc-2.20.so [.] __memcpy_avx_unaligned To address this issue, the existing per-cpu stock infrastructure can be used. refill_stock() can be called from mem_cgroup_uncharge_skmem() to move charge to a per-cpu stock instead of calling atomic page_counter_uncharge(). To prevent the uncontrolled growth of per-cpu stocks, refill_stock() will explicitly drain the cached charge, if the cached value exceeds CHARGE_BATCH. This allows significantly optimize the load: 1.21% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock 1.01% [kernel] [k] ixgbe_poll 0.92% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave 0.90% [kernel] [k] enqueue_entity 0.86% [kernel] [k] tcp_ack 0.85% < workload > 0.74% perf-11120.map [.] 0x000000000061bf24 0.73% [kernel] [k] __schedule 0.67% [kernel] [k] __fget 0.63% [kernel] [k] __inet6_lookup_established 0.62% [kernel] [k] menu_select 0.59% < workload > 0.59% [kernel] [k] __switch_to 0.57% libc-2.20.so [.] __memcpy_avx_unaligned Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170829100150.4580-1-guro@xxxxxx Signed-off-by: Roman Gushchin <guro@xxxxxx> Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov.dev@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- mm/memcontrol.c | 6 ++++-- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff -puN mm/memcontrol.c~mm-memcontrol-use-per-cpu-stocks-for-socket-memory-uncharging mm/memcontrol.c --- a/mm/memcontrol.c~mm-memcontrol-use-per-cpu-stocks-for-socket-memory-uncharging +++ a/mm/memcontrol.c @@ -1792,6 +1792,9 @@ static void refill_stock(struct mem_cgro } stock->nr_pages += nr_pages; + if (stock->nr_pages > CHARGE_BATCH) + drain_stock(stock); + local_irq_restore(flags); } @@ -5886,8 +5889,7 @@ void mem_cgroup_uncharge_skmem(struct me this_cpu_sub(memcg->stat->count[MEMCG_SOCK], nr_pages); - page_counter_uncharge(&memcg->memory, nr_pages); - css_put_many(&memcg->css, nr_pages); + refill_stock(memcg, nr_pages); } static int __init cgroup_memory(char *s) _ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
