Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] mm, lru_gen: move pages in bulk when aging
From: Kairui Song <kasong@...cent.com>
Another overhead of aging is page moving. Actually, in most cases,
pages are being moved to the same gen after folio_inc_gen is called,
especially the protected pages. So it's better to move them in bulk.
This also has a good effect on LRU order. Currently when MGLRU
ages, it walks the LRU backwards, and the protected pages are moved to
the tail of newer gen one by one, which actually reverses the order of
pages in LRU. Moving them in batches can help keep their order, only
in a small scope though, due to the scan limit of MAX_LRU_BATCH pages.
After this commit, we can see a slight performance gain (with
CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST=n):
Test 1: of memcached in a 4G memcg on a EPYC 7K62 with:
memcached -u nobody -m 16384 -s /tmp/memcached.socket \
-a 0766 -t 16 -B binary &
memtier_benchmark -S /tmp/memcached.socket \
-P memcache_binary -n allkeys \
--key-minimum=1 --key-maximum=16000000 -d 1024 \
--ratio=1:0 --key-pattern=P:P -c 2 -t 16 --pipeline 8 -x 6
Average result of 18 test runs:
Before: 44017.78 Ops/sec
After patch 1-2: 44810.01 Ops/sec (+1.8%)
Test 2: MySQL in 6G memcg with:
echo 'set GLOBAL innodb_buffer_pool_size=16106127360;' | \
mysql -u USER -h localhost --password=PASS
sysbench /usr/share/sysbench/oltp_read_only.lua \
--mysql-user=USER --mysql-password=PASS --mysql-db=sb\
--tables=48 --table-size=2000000 --threads=16 --time=1800\
--report-interval=5 run
QPS of 6 test runs:
Before:
134126.83
134352.13
134045.19
133985.12
134787.47
134554.43
After patch 1-2 (+0.4%):
134913.38
134695.35
134891.31
134662.66
135090.32
134901.14
Only about 10% CPU time is spent in kernel space for MySQL test so the
improvement is very trivial.
There could be a higher performance gain when pages are getting
protected aggressively.
