memcg: support hierarchical memory.numa_stats

2013-11-13T03:09:06+00:00

The memory.numa_stat file was not hierarchical.  Memory charged to the
children was not shown in parent's numa_stat.

This change adds the "hierarchical_" stats to the existing stats.  The
new hierarchical stats include the sum of all children's values in
addition to the value of the memcg.

Tested: Create cgroup a, a/b and run workload under b.  The values of
b are included in the "hierarchical_*" under a.

$ cd /sys/fs/cgroup
$ echo 1 > memory.use_hierarchy
$ mkdir a a/b

Run workload in a/b:
$ (echo $BASHPID >> a/b/cgroup.procs && cat /some/file && bash) &

The hierarchical_ fields in parent (a) show use of workload in a/b:
$ cat a/memory.numa_stat
total=0 N0=0 N1=0 N2=0 N3=0
file=0 N0=0 N1=0 N2=0 N3=0
anon=0 N0=0 N1=0 N2=0 N3=0

Merge branch 'for-3.11/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

2013-07-11T20:03:24+00:00

Pull core block IO updates from Jens Axboe:
"Here are the core IO block bits for 3.11. It contains:

- A tweak to the reserved tag logic from Jan, for weirdo devices with
just 3 free tags. But for those it improves things substantially
for random writes.

- Periodic writeback fix from Jan. Marked for stable as well.

- Fix for a race condition in IO scheduler switching from Jianpeng.

- The hierarchical blk-cgroup support from Tejun. This is the grunt
of the series.

- blk-throttle fix from Vivek.

Just a note that I'm in the middle of a relocation, whole family is
flying out tomorrow. Hence I will be awal the remainder of this week,
but back at work again on Monday the 15th. CC'ing Tejun, since any
potential "surprises" will most likely be from the blk-cgroup work.
But it's been brewing for a while and sitting in my tree and
linux-next for a long time, so should be solid."

sched: Rename sched.c as sched/core.c in comments and Documentation

2013-06-19T10:58:42+00:00

Most of the stuff from kernel/sched.c was moved to kernel/sched/core.c long time
back and the comments/Documentation never got updated.

I figured it out when I was going through sched-domains.txt and so thought of
fixing it globally.

I haven't crossed check if the stuff that is referenced in sched/core.c by all
these files is still present and hasn't changed as that wasn't the motive behind
this patch.

blk-throttle: implement proper hierarchy support

2013-05-14T20:52:38+00:00

With the recent updates, blk-throttle is finally ready for proper
hierarchy support.  Dispatching now honors service_queue->parent_sq
and propagates correctly.  The only thing missing is setting
->parent_sq correctly so that throtl_grp hierarchy matches the cgroup
hierarchy.

This patch updates throtl_pd_init() such that service_queues form the
same hierarchy as the cgroup hierarchy if sane_behavior is enabled.
As this concludes proper hierarchy support for blkcg, the shameful
.broken_hierarchy tag is removed from blkio_subsys.

v2: Updated blkio-controller.txt as suggested by Vivek.

mm, memcg: add rss_huge stat to memory.stat

2013-05-08T01:38:26+00:00

This exports the amount of anonymous transparent hugepages for each
memcg via the new "rss_huge" stat in memory.stat.  The units are in
bytes.

This is helpful to determine the hugepage utilization for individual
jobs on the system in comparison to rss and opportunities where
MADV_HUGEPAGE may be helpful.

The amount of anonymous transparent hugepages is also included in "rss"
for backwards compatibility.
