[RFC][PATCH 5/6] memcg: mem+swap controller

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Date: Tue Nov 11 2008 - 22:31:46 EST


Mem+Swap controller core.

This patch implements per cgroup limit for usage of memory+swap.
However there are SwapCache, double counting of swap-cache and
swap-entry is avoided.

Mem+Swap controller works as following.
- memory usage is limited by memory.limit_in_bytes.
- memory + swap usage is limited by memory.memsw_limit_in_bytes.


This has following benefits.
- A user can limit total resource usage of mem+swap.

Without this, because memory resource controller doesn't take care of
usage of swap, a process can exhaust all the swap (by memory leak.)
We can avoid this case.

And Swap is shared resource but it cannot be reclaimed (goes back to memory)
until it's used. This characteristic can be trouble when the memory
is divided into some parts by cpuset or memcg.
Assume group A and group B.
After some application executes, the system can be..

Group A -- very large free memory space but occupy 99% of swap.
Group B -- under memory shortage but cannot use swap...it's nearly full.

Ability to set appropriate swap limit for each group is required.

Maybe someone wonder "why not swap but mem+swap ?"

- The global LRU(kswapd) can swap out arbitrary pages. Swap-out means
to move account from memory to swap...there is no change in usage of
mem+swap.

In other words, when we want to limit the usage of swap without affecting
global LRU, mem+swap limit is better than just limiting swap.


Accounting target information is stored in swap_cgroup which is
per swap entry record.

Charge is done as following.
map
- charge page and memsw.

unmap
- uncharge page/memsw if not SwapCache.

swap-out (__delete_from_swap_cache)
- uncharge page
- record mem_cgroup information to swap_cgroup.

swap-in (do_swap_page)
- charged as page and memsw.
record in swap_cgroup is cleared.
memsw accounting is decremented.

swap-free (swap_free())
- if swap entry is freed, memsw is uncharged by PAGE_SIZE.


There are people work under never-swap environments and consider swap as
something bad. For such people, this mem+swap controller extension is just an
overhead. This overhead is avoided by config or boot option.
(see Kconfig. detail is not in this patch.)

TODO:
- maybe more optimization can be don in swap-in path. (but not very safe.)
But we just do simple accounting at this stage.

Changelog: v2 -> v3
- create memsw.* file only when do_swap_account==1.
- fixed cancel_charge_swapin().
- swap_on_disk in stat file is dropped.
- swapref is renamed to be refcnt. (so, this can be used for general use.)
- fixed resize_limit() to check that new limit don't exceed memsw.limit

Changelog: v1 -> v2
- fixed typos
- fixed migration of anon pages.
- fixed uncharge to check USED bit always.
- code for swapcache is moved to another patch.
- added "noswap" argument to try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages
- fixed lock_page around mem_cgroup_charge_cache_swap()
- fixed failcnt file.
