From 5095a2b23987d3c3c47dd16b3d4080e2733b8bb9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yu Zhao Date: Thu, 7 Dec 2023 23:14:05 -0700 Subject: mm/mglru: try to stop at high watermarks The initial MGLRU patchset didn't include the memcg LRU support, and it relied on should_abort_scan(), added by commit f76c83378851 ("mm: multi-gen LRU: optimize multiple memcgs"), to "backoff to avoid overshooting their aggregate reclaim target by too much". Later on when the memcg LRU was added, should_abort_scan() was deemed unnecessary, and the test results [1] showed no side effects after it was removed by commit a579086c99ed ("mm: multi-gen LRU: remove eviction fairness safeguard"). However, that test used memory.reclaim, which sets nr_to_reclaim to SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX. So it can overshoot only by SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX-1 pages, i.e., from nr_reclaimed=nr_to_reclaim-1 to nr_reclaimed=nr_to_reclaim+SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX-1. Compared with the batch size kswapd sets to nr_to_reclaim, SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX is tiny. Therefore that test isn't able to reproduce the worst case scenario, i.e., kswapd overshooting GBs on large systems and "consuming 100% CPU" (see the Closes tag). Bring back a simplified version of should_abort_scan() on top of the memcg LRU, so that kswapd stops when all eligible zones are above their respective high watermarks plus a small delta to lower the chance of KSWAPD_HIGH_WMARK_HIT_QUICKLY. Note that this only applies to order-0 reclaim, meaning compaction-induced reclaim can still run wild (which is a different problem).
