Subject[PATCH] Avoiding fragmentation through different allocator
Date
From
Changelog since V5
o Fixed up gcc-2.95 errors
o Fixed up whitespace damage

Changelog since V4
o No changes. Applies cleanly against 2.6.11-rc1 and 2.6.11-rc1-bk6. Applies
with offsets to 2.6.11-rc1-mm1

Changelog since V3
o inlined get_pageblock_type() and set_pageblock_type()
o set_pageblock_type() now takes a zone parameter to avoid a call to page_zone()
o When taking from the global pool, do not scan all the low-order lists

Changelog since V2
o Do not to interfere with the "min" decay
o Update the __GFP_BITS_SHIFT properly. Old value broke fsync and probably
anything to do with asynchronous IO

Changelog since V1
o Update patch to 2.6.11-rc1
o Cleaned up bug where memory was wasted on a large bitmap
o Remove code that needed the binary buddy bitmaps
o Update flags to avoid colliding with __GFP_ZERO changes
o Extended fallback_count bean counters to show the fallback count for each
allocation type
o In-code documentation

Version 1
o Initial release against 2.6.9

This patch divides allocations into three different types of allocations;

UserReclaimable - These are userspace pages that are easily reclaimable. Right
now, all allocations of GFP_USER, GFP_HIGHUSER and disk buffers are
in this category. These pages are trivially reclaimed by writing
the page out to swap or syncing with backing storage

KernelReclaimable - These are pages allocated by the kernel that are easily
reclaimed. This is stuff like inode caches, dcache, buffer_heads etc.
These type of pages potentially could be reclaimed by dumping the
caches and reaping the slabs

KernelNonReclaimable - These are pages that are allocated by the kernel that
are not trivially reclaimed. For example, the memory allocated for a
loaded module would be in this category. By default, allocations are
considered to be of this type

Instead of having one global MAX_ORDER-sized array of free lists, there are
three, one for each type of allocation. Finally, there is a list of pages of
size 2^MAX_ORDER which is a global pool of the largest pages the kernel deals
with.

Once a 2^MAX_ORDER block of pages it split for a type of allocation, it is
added to the free-lists for that type, in effect reserving it. Hence, over
time, pages of the different types can be clustered together. This means that
if we wanted 2^MAX_ORDER number of pages, we could linearly scan a block of
pages allocated for UserReclaimable and page each of them out.

Fallback is used when there are no 2^MAX_ORDER pages available and there
are no free pages of the desired type. The fallback lists were chosen in a
way that keeps the most easily reclaimable pages together.

Three benchmark results are included. The first is the output of portions
of AIM9 for the vanilla allocator and the modified one;

13 link_test 120.01 11089 92.40063 5821.24 Link/Unlink Pairs/second

They show that the allocator performs roughly similar to the standard
allocator so there is negligible slowdown with the extra complexity. The
second benchmark tested the CPU cache usage to make sure it was not getting
clobbered. The test was to repeatadly render a large postcript file 10 times
and get the average. The result is;

==> gsbench-2.6.11-rc1Standard.txt <==
Average: 115.468 real, 115.092 user, 0.337 sys

==> gsbench-2.6.11-rc1MBuddy.txt <==
Average: 115.47 real, 115.136 user, 0.338 sys


So there are no adverse cache effects. The last test is to show that the
allocator can satisfy more high-order allocations, especially under load,
than the standard allocator. The test performs the following;

1. Start updatedb running in the background
2. Load kernel modules that tries to allocate high-order blocks on demand
3. Clean a kernel tree
4. Make 6 copies of the tree. As each copy finishes, a compile starts at -j4
5. Start compiling the primary tree
6. Sleep 3 minutes while the 7 trees are being compiled
7. Use the kernel module to attempt 160 times to allocate a 2^10 block of pages
- note, it only attempts 160 times, no matter how often it succeeds
- An allocation is attempted every 1/10th of a second

The result of the allocations under load were;

Vanilla 2.6.11-rc1
Attempted allocations: 160
Success allocs: 3
Failed allocs: 157
% Success: 1

2.6.11-rc1 with modified allocator
Attempted allocations: 160
Success allocs: 81
Failed allocs: 79
% Success: 50

The results show that the modified allocator runs at least as fast as the
normal allocator, has no adverse cache effects but is far less fragmented
and able to satisfy high-order allocations.
