This patch applies on top of Paul Menage's container patches (V7) posted at
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/2/12/88
It implements a controller within the containers framework for limiting
memory usage (RSS usage).
The memory controller was discussed at length in the RFC posted to lkml
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/30/51
This is version 2 of the patch, version 1 was posted at
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/2/19/10
I have tried to incorporate all comments, more details can be found
in the changelog's of induvidual patches. Any remaining mistakes are
all my fault.
The next question could be why release version 2?
1. It serves a decision point to decide if we should move to a per-container
LRU list. Walking through the global LRU is slow, in this patchset I've
tried to address the LRU churning issue. The patch
memcontrol-reclaim-on-limit has more details
2. I;ve included fixes for several of the comments/issues raised in version 1
Steps to use the controller
--------------------------
0. Download the patches, apply the patches
1. Turn on CONFIG_CONTAINER_MEMCONTROL in kernel config, build the kernel
and boot into the new kernel
2. mount -t container container -o memcontrol /<mount point>
3. cd /<mount point>
optionally do (mkdir <directory>; cd <directory>) under /<mount point>
4. echo $$ > tasks (attaches the current shell to the container)
5. echo -n (limit value) > memcontrol_limit
6. cat memcontrol_usage
7. Run tasks, check the usage of the controller, reclaim behaviour
8. Report bugs, get bug fixes and iterate (goto step 0).
Advantages of the patchset
--------------------------
1. Zero overhead in struct page (struct page is not expanded)
2. Minimal changes to the core-mm code
3. Shared pages are not reclaimed unless all mappings belong to overlimit
containers.
4. It can be used to debug drivers/applications/kernel components in a
constrained memory environment (similar to mem=XXX option), except that
several containers can be created simultaneously without rebooting and
the limits can be changed. NOTE: There is no support for limiting
kernel memory allocations and page cache control (presently).
Testing
-------
Created containers, attached tasks to containers with lower limits than
the memory the tasks require (memory hog tests) and ran some basic tests on
them.
Tested the patches on UML and PowerPC. On UML tried the patches with the
config enabled and disabled (sanity check) and with containers enabled
but the memory controller disabled.
TODO's and improvement areas
----------------------------
1. Come up with cool page replacement algorithms for containers - still holds
good (if possible without any changes to struct page)
2. Add page cache control
3. Add kernel memory allocator control
4. Extract benchmark numbers and overhead data
Comments & criticism are welcome.

[-- Warning: decoded text below may be mangled, UTF-8 assumed --]
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 8938 bytes --]
Changelog
1. Change the name from memctlr to memcontrol
2. Coding style changes, call the API and then check return value (for kmalloc).
3. Change the output format, to print sizes in both pages and kB
4. Split the usage and limit files to be independent (cat memcontrol_usage
no longer prints the limit)
TODO's
1. Implement error handling mechansim for handling container_add_file()
failures (this would depend on the containers code).
This patch sets up the basic controller infrastructure on top of the
containers infrastructure. Two files are provided for monitoring
and control memcontrol_usage and memcontrol_limit.
memcontrol_usage shows the current usage (in pages, of RSS) and the limit
set by the user.
memcontrol_limit can be used to set a limit on the RSS usage of the resource.
A special value of 0, indicates that the usage is unlimited. The limit
is set in units of pages.

* [RFC][PATCH][2/4] Add RSS accounting and control (
2007-02-24 14:45 ` Balbir Singh
@ 2007-02-24 14:45 ` Balbir Singh

From: Balbir Singh @ 2007-02-24 14:45 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: linux-kernel
Cc: Balbir Singh, vatsa, ckrm-tech, magnus.damm, xemul, dev,
linux-mm, kamezawa.hiroyu, menage, svaidy, akpm, devel
Changelog
1. Be consistent, use the C style of returning 0 on success and negative
values on failure
2. Change and document the locking used by the controller
(I hope I got it right this time :-))
3. Remove memctlr_double_(un)lock routines
4. Comment the usage of MEMCONTROL_DONT_CHECK_LIMIT
This patch adds the basic accounting hooks to account for pages allocated
into the RSS of a process. Accounting is maintained at two levels, in
the mm_struct of each task and in the memory controller data structure
associated with each node in the container.
When the limit specified for the container is exceeded, the task is killed.
RSS accounting is consistent with the current definition of RSS in the
kernel. Shared pages are accounted into the RSS of each process as is
done in the kernel currently. The code is flexible in that it can be easily
modified to work with any definition of RSS.

Changelog
1. Be consistent, use the C style of returning 0 on success and negative
values on failure
2. Change and document the locking used by the controller
(I hope I got it right this time :-))
3. Remove memctlr_double_(un)lock routines
4. Comment the usage of MEMCONTROL_DONT_CHECK_LIMIT
This patch adds the basic accounting hooks to account for pages allocated
into the RSS of a process. Accounting is maintained at two levels, in
the mm_struct of each task and in the memory controller data structure
associated with each node in the container.
When the limit specified for the container is exceeded, the task is killed.
RSS accounting is consistent with the current definition of RSS in the
kernel. Shared pages are accounted into the RSS of each process as is
done in the kernel currently. The code is flexible in that it can be easily
modified to work with any definition of RSS.

Changelog
1. Move void *container to struct container (in scan_control and vmscan.c
and rmap.c)
2. The last set of patches churned the LRU list, in this release, pages
that can do not belong to the container are moved to a skipped_pages
list. At the end of the isolation they are added back to the zone
list using list_spice_tail (a new function added in list.h).
The disadvantage of this approach is that pages moved to skipped_pages
will not be available for general reclaim. General testing on UML
and a powerpc box showed that the changes worked.
Other alternatives tried
------------------------
a. Do not delete the page from lru list, but that quickly lead to
a panic, since the page was on LRU and we released the lru_lock
in page_in_container
TODO's
1. Try a per-container LRU list, but that would mean expanding the page
struct or special tricks like overloading the LRU pointer. A per-container
list would also make it more difficult to handle shared pages, as a
page will belong to just one container at-a-time.
This patch reclaims pages from a container when the container limit is hit.
The executable is oom'ed only when the container it is running in, is overlimit
and we could not reclaim any pages belonging to the container
A parameter called pushback, controls how much memory is reclaimed when the
limit is hit. It should be easy to expose this knob to user space, but
currently it is hard coded to 20% of the total limit of the container.
isolate_lru_pages() has been modified to isolate pages belonging to a
particular container, so that reclaim code will reclaim only container
pages. For shared pages, reclaim does not unmap all mappings of the page,
it only unmaps those mappings that are over their limit. This ensures
that other containers are not penalized while reclaiming shared pages.
Parallel reclaim per container is not allowed. Each controller has a wait
queue that ensures that only one task per control is running reclaim on
that container.

Changelog
1. Move void *container to struct container (in scan_control and vmscan.c
and rmap.c)
2. The last set of patches churned the LRU list, in this release, pages
that can do not belong to the container are moved to a skipped_pages
list. At the end of the isolation they are added back to the zone
list using list_spice_tail (a new function added in list.h).
The disadvantage of this approach is that pages moved to skipped_pages
will not be available for general reclaim. General testing on UML
and a powerpc box showed that the changes worked.
Other alternatives tried
------------------------
a. Do not delete the page from lru list, but that quickly lead to
a panic, since the page was on LRU and we released the lru_lock
in page_in_container
TODO's
1. Try a per-container LRU list, but that would mean expanding the page
struct or special tricks like overloading the LRU pointer. A per-container
list would also make it more difficult to handle shared pages, as a
page will belong to just one container at-a-time.
This patch reclaims pages from a container when the container limit is hit.
The executable is oom'ed only when the container it is running in, is overlimit
and we could not reclaim any pages belonging to the container
A parameter called pushback, controls how much memory is reclaimed when the
limit is hit. It should be easy to expose this knob to user space, but
currently it is hard coded to 20% of the total limit of the container.
isolate_lru_pages() has been modified to isolate pages belonging to a
particular container, so that reclaim code will reclaim only container
pages. For shared pages, reclaim does not unmap all mappings of the page,
it only unmaps those mappings that are over their limit. This ensures
that other containers are not penalized while reclaiming shared pages.
Parallel reclaim per container is not allowed. Each controller has a wait
queue that ensures that only one task per control is running reclaim on
that container.

+Introduction
+------------
+
+The memory controller is a controller module written under the containers
+framework. It can be used to limit the resource usage of a group of
+tasks grouped by the container.
+
+Accounting
+----------
+
+The memory controller tracks the RSS usage of the tasks in the container.
+The definition of RSS was debated on lkml in the following thread
+
+ http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/10/130
+
+This patch is flexible, it is easy to adapt the patch to any definition
+of RSS. The current accounting is based on the current definition of
+RSS. Each page mapped is charged to the container.
+
+The accounting is done at two levels, each process has RSS accounting in
+the mm_struct and in the container it belongs to. The mm_struct accounting
+is used when a task switches (migrates to a different) container(s). The
+accounting information for the task is subtracted from the source container
+and added to the destination container. If as result of the migration, the
+destination container goes over limit, no action is taken until some task
+in the destination container runs and tries to map a new page in its
+page table.
+
+The current RSS usage can be seen in the memcontrol_usage file. The value
+is in units of pages.
+
+Control
+-------
+
+The memcontrol_limit file allows the user to set a limit on the number of
+pages that can be mapped by the processes in the container. A special
+value of 0 (which is the default limit of any new container), indicates
+that the container can use unlimited amount of RSS.
+
+Reclaim
+-------
+
+When the limit set in the container is hit, the memory controller starts
+reclaiming pages belonging to the container (simulating a local LRU in
+some sense). isolate_lru_pages() has been modified to isolate lru
+pages belonging to a specific container. Parallel reclaims on the same
+container are not allowed, other tasks end up waiting for the any existing
+reclaim to finish.
+
+The reclaim code uses two internal knobs, retries and pushback. pushback
+specifies the percentage of memory to be reclaimed when the container goes
+over limit. The retries knob, controls how many times reclaim is retried
+before the task is killed (because reclaim failed).
+
+Shared pages are treated specially during reclaim. They are not force
+reclaimed, they are only unmapped from containers which are over limit.
+This ensures that other containers do not pay a penalty for a shared
+page being reclaimed when a paritcular container goes over its limit.
+
+NOTE: All limits are hard limits.
+
+Future Plans
+------------
+
+The current controller implements only RSS control. It is planned to add
+the following components
+
+1. Page Cache control
+2. mlock'ed memory control
+3. kernel memory allocation control (memory allocated on behalf of a task)
