[PATCH v4 03/13] mm: Assign memcg-aware shrinkers bitmap to memcg

From: Kirill Tkhai
Date: Wed May 09 2018 - 07:57:32 EST


Imagine a big node with many cpus, memory cgroups and containers.
Let we have 200 containers, every container has 10 mounts,
and 10 cgroups. All container tasks don't touch foreign
containers mounts. If there is intensive pages write,
and global reclaim happens, a writing task has to iterate
over all memcgs to shrink slab, before it's able to go
to shrink_page_list().

Iteration over all the memcg slabs is very expensive:
the task has to visit 200 * 10 = 2000 shrinkers
for every memcg, and since there are 2000 memcgs,
the total calls are 2000 * 2000 = 4000000.

So, the shrinker makes 4 million do_shrink_slab() calls
just to try to isolate SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages in one
of the actively writing memcg via shrink_page_list().
I've observed a node spending almost 100% in kernel,
making useless iteration over already shrinked slab.

This patch adds bitmap of memcg-aware shrinkers to memcg.
The size of the bitmap depends on bitmap_nr_ids, and during
memcg life it's maintained to be enough to fit bitmap_nr_ids
shrinkers. Every bit in the map is related to corresponding
shrinker id.

Next patches will maintain set bit only for really charged
memcg. This will allow shrink_slab() to increase its
performance in significant way. See the last patch for
the numbers.
