Subject: [PATCH 3/3] memory tiering: adjust hot threshold automatically
The promotion hot threshold may be workload dependent. So in this
patch, a method to adjust the hot threshold automatically is
implemented. The basic idea is to control the number of the candidate
promotion pages to match the promotion rate limit. If the hint page
fault latency of a page is less than the hot threshold, we will try to
promote the page, and the page is called the candidate promotion page.
If the number of the candidate promotion pages in the statistics
interval is much more than the promotion rate limit, the hot threshold
will be decreased to reduce the number of the candidate promotion
pages. Otherwise, the hot threshold will be increased to increase the
number of the candidate promotion pages.
To make the above method works, in each statistics interval, the total
number of the pages to check (on which the hint page faults occur) and
the hot/cold distribution need to be stable. Because the page tables
are scanned linearly in NUMA balancing, but the hot/cold distribution
isn't uniform along the address usually, the statistics interval
should be larger than the NUMA balancing scan period. So in the
patch, the max scan period is used as statistics interval and it works
well in our tests.
