[PATCH] sched/numa: advanced per-cgroup numa statistic

From: çè
Date: Wed Oct 23 2019 - 23:08:08 EST


Currently there are no good approach to monitoring the per-cgroup
numa efficiency, this could be a trouble especially when groups
are sharing CPUs, it's impossible to tell which one caused the
remote-memory access by reading hardware counter since multiple
workloads could sharing the same CPU, which make it painful when
one want to find out the root cause and fix the issue.

In order to address this, we introduced new per-cgroup statistic
for numa:
* the numa locality to imply the numa balancing efficiency
* the numa execution time on each node

The task locality is the local page accessing ratio traced on numa
balancing PF, and the group locality is the topology of task execution
time, sectioned by the locality into 8 regions.

For example the new entry 'cpu.numa_stat' show:
locality 15393 21259 13023 44461 21247 17012 28496 145402
exectime 311900 407166

Here we know the workloads executed 311900ms on node_0 and 407166ms
on node_1, tasks with locality around 0~12% executed for 15393 ms, and
tasks with locality around 88~100% executed for 145402 ms, which imply
most of the memory access is local access, for the workloads of this
group.

By monitoring the new statistic, we will be able to know the numa
efficiency of each per-cgroup workloads on machine, whatever they
sharing the CPUs or not, we will be able to find out which one
introduced the remote access mostly.

Besides, per-node memory topology from 'memory.numa_stat' become
more useful when we have the per-node execution time, workloads
always executing on node_0 while it's memory is all on node_1 is
usually a bad case.
