Subject: [PATCH v2] mm: mglru: provide a separate list for lazyfree anon folios
From: Barry Song <v-songbaohua@...o.com>
This builds on the discussion about Gaoxu's work[1]. Significant
file refaults may occur when userspace makes extensive use of
MADV_FREE on anonymous folios, as these folios are not
positioned in an easily reclaimable area within the LRU.
According to Lokesh, MADV_FREE'd anon folios are expected to be
released earlier than file folios. One option, as implemented
by Gao Xu, is to place lazyfree anon folios at the tail of the
file's `min_seq` generation[1]. However, this approach results in
lazyfree folios being released in a LIFO manner, which conflicts
with LRU behavior, as noted by Michal.
To address this, this patch proposes maintaining a separate list
for lazyfree anon folios while keeping them classified under the
"file" LRU type to minimize code changes. These lazyfree anon
folios will still be counted as file folios and share the same
generation with regular files. In the eviction path, the lazyfree
list will be prioritized for scanning before the actual file
LRU list.
Thanks to Gao Xu for the test results, which look quite promising:
Base version：android V (enable Android ART use MADV_FREE)
Test cases: 60 apps repeatedly restarted, tested for 8 hours;
The test results are as follows:
workingset_refault_anon workingset_refault_file
base 42016805 92010542
patch 19834873 49383572
% diff -52.79% -46.33%
A comparative test was also performed on approach [1], with the
following results:
workingset_refault_anon workingset_refault_file
lazyfree-tail 20313395 52203061
patch 19834873 49383572
% diff -2.36% -5.40%
