[PATCH v3 12/14] mm: multigenerational lru: user interface

[Yu Zhao]

Add a sysfs file /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled to enable and disable
the multigenerational lru at runtime.

Add a sysfs file /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/spread to optionally spread
pages out across more than three generations. More generations make
the background aging more aggressive.

Add a debugfs file /sys/kernel/debug/lru_gen to monitor the
multigenerational lru and trigger the aging and the eviction. This
file has the following output:
  memcg  memcg_id  memcg_path
    node  node_id
      min_gen  birth_time  anon_size  file_size
      ...
      max_gen  birth_time  anon_size  file_size

Given a memcg and a node, "min_gen" is the oldest generation (number)
and "max_gen" is the youngest. Birth time is in milliseconds. The
sizes of anon and file types are in pages.

This file takes the following input:
  + memcg_id node_id gen [swappiness]
  - memcg_id node_id gen [swappiness] [nr_to_reclaim]

The first command line accounts referenced pages to generation
"max_gen" and creates the next generation "max_gen"+1. In this case,
"gen" should be equal to "max_gen". A swap file and a non-zero
"swappiness" are required to scan anon type. If swapping is not
desired, set vm.swappiness to 0. The second command line evicts
generations less than or equal to "gen". In this case, "gen" should be
less than "max_gen"-1 as "max_gen" and "max_gen"-1 are active
generations and therefore protected from the eviction. Use
"nr_to_reclaim" to limit the number of pages to evict. Multiple
command lines are supported, so does concatenation with delimiters ","
and ";".
