Subject: Re: Help Resource Counters Scale better (v4)
* Balbir Singh <balbir@...ux.vnet.ibm.com> [2009-08-11 20:14:05]:
Here is a verion of the patch, with the checkpatch.pl warnings fixed.
I forgot to refresh my changes :(
From: Balbir Singh <balbir@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>
Enhancement: Remove the overhead of root based resource counter accounting
This patch reduces the resource counter overhead (mostly spinlock)
associated with the root cgroup. This is a part of the several
patches to reduce mem cgroup overhead. I had posted other
approaches earlier (including using percpu counters). Those
patches will be a natural addition and will be added iteratively
on top of these.
The patch stops resource counter accounting for the root cgroup.
The data for display is derived from the statisitcs we maintain
via mem_cgroup_charge_statistics (which is more scalable).
The tests results I see on a 24 way show that
1. The lock contention disappears from /proc/lock_stats
2. The results of the test are comparable to running with
cgroup_disable=memory.
