Subject: [RFC 1/2] mm: add framework for PCP high auto-tuning
The page allocation performance requirements of different workloads
are usually different. So, we often need to tune PCP (per-CPU
pageset) high to optimize the workload page allocation performance.
Now, we have a system wide sysctl knob (percpu_pagelist_high_fraction)
to tune PCP high by hand. But, it's hard to find out the best value
by hand. And one global configuration may not work best for the
different workloads that run on the same system. One solution to
these issues is to tune PCP high of each CPU automatically.
This patch adds the framework for PCP high auto-tuning. With it,
pcp->high will be changed automatically by tuning algorithm at
runtime. Its default value (pcp->high_def) is the original PCP high
value calculated based on low watermark pages or
percpu_pagelist_high_fraction sysctl knob. To avoid putting too many
pages in PCP, the original limit of percpu_pagelist_high_fraction
sysctl knob, MIN_PERCPU_PAGELIST_HIGH_FRACTION, is used to calculate
the max PCP high value (pcp->high_max).
This patch only adds the framework, so pcp->high will be set to
pcp->high_def always. We will add actual auto-tuning algorithm in the
next patch in the series.
