Hi,
cgroup still lacks a good iocontroller. CFQ works well for hard disk, but not
much for SSD. This patch set try to add a conservative limit for blk-throttle.
It isn't a proportional scheduling, but can help prioritize cgroups. There are
several advantages we choose blk-throttle:
- blk-throttle resides early in the block stack. It works for both bio and
request based queues.
- blk-throttle is light weight in general. It still takes queue lock, but it's
not hard to implement a per-cpu cache and remove the lock contention.
- blk-throttle doesn't use 'idle disk' mechanism, which is used by CFQ/BFQ. The
mechanism is proved to harm performance for fast SSD.
The patch set add a new io.low limit for blk-throttle. It's only for cgroup2.
The existing io.max is a hard limit throttling. cgroup with a max limit never
dispatch more IO than its max limit. While io.low is a best effort throttling.
cgroups with 'low' limit can run above their 'low' limit at appropriate time.
Specifically, if all cgroups reach their 'low' limit, all cgroups can run above
their 'low' limit. If any cgroup runs under its 'low' limit, all other cgroups
will run according to their 'low' limit. So the 'low' limit could act as two
roles, it allows cgroups using free bandwidth and it protects cgroups from
their 'low' limit.
An example usage is we have a high prio cgroup with high 'low' limit and a low
prio cgroup with low 'low' limit. If the high prio cgroup isn't running, the low
prio can run above its 'low' limit, so we don't waste the bandwidth. When the
high prio cgroup runs and is below its 'low' limit, low prio cgroup will run
under its 'low' limit. This will protect high prio cgroup to get more
resources.
The implementation is simple. The disk queue has a state machine. We have 2
states LIMIT_LOW and LIMIT_MAX. In each disk state, we throttle cgroups
according to the limit of the state. That is io.low limit for LIMIT_LOW state,
io.max limit for LIMIT_MAX. The disk state can be upgraded/downgraded between
LIMIT_LOW and LIMIT_MAX according to the rule aboe. Initially disk state is
LIMIT_MAX. And if no cgroup sets io.low, the disk state will remain in
LIMIT_MAX state. Systems with only io.max set will find nothing changed with the
patches.
The first 11 patches implement the basic framework. Add interface, handle
upgrade and downgrade logic. The patch 11 detects a special case a cgroup is
completely idle. In this case, we ignore the cgroup's limit. The patch 12-18
adds more heuristics.
The basic framework has 2 major issues.
1. fluctuation. When the state is upgraded from LIMIT_LOW to LIMIT_MAX, the
cgroup's bandwidth can change dramatically, sometimes in a way we are not
expected. For example, one cgroup's bandwidth will drop below its io.low limit
very soon after a upgrade. patch 10 has more details about the issue.
2. idle cgroup. cgroup with a io.low limit doesn't always dispatch enough IO.
In above upgrade rule, the disk will remain in LIMIT_LOW state and all other
cgroups can't dispatch more IO above their 'low' limit. Hence there is waste.
patch 11 has more details about the issue.
For issue 1, we make cgroup bandwidth increase/decrease smoothly after a
upgrade/downgrade. This will reduce the chance a cgroup's bandwidth drop under
its 'low' limit rapidly. The smoothness means we could waste some bandwidth in
the transition though. But we must pay something for sharing.
The issue 2 is very hard. We introduce two mechanisms for this. One is 'idle
time' or 'think time' borrowed from CFQ. If a cgroup's average idle time is
high, we treat it's idle and its 'low' limit isn't respected. Please see patch
13 - 15 for details. The other is 'latency target'. If a cgroup's io latency is
low, we treat it's idle and its 'low' limit isn't resptected. Please see patch
16 - 18 for fetails. Both mechanisms only happen when a cgroup runs below its
'low' limit.
The disadvantages of blk-throttle is it exports a kind of low level knob.
Configuration would not be easy for normal users. Based on discussion in LSF,
add a configure option for the interface and mark it experimental, so user can
test/benchmark. If the interface is really bad, we can change/remove the
interface.
More tuning is required of course, but otherwise this works well. Please
review, test and consider merge.
Thanks,
Shaohua
V6->V7:
- Add a configure option for the low limit and mark it experimental as
discussed in LSF. All user interfaces are only enabled with the option on.
- Don't overload blk stat, which will simplify the code. This will add extra
space in bio/request though with the low interface configure option on.
- Rebase against Jesn's for-4.12/block tree
V5->V6:
- Change default setting for io.low limit. It's 0 now, which makes more sense
- The default setting for latency is still 0, the default setting for idle time
becomes bigger. So with the default settings, cgroups have small latency but
disk sharing could be harmed
- Addressed other issues pointed out by Tejun
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=148445203815062&w=2
V4->V5, basically address Tejun's comments:
- Change interface from 'io.high' to 'io.low' so consistent with memcg
- Change interface for 'idle time' and 'latency target'
- Make 'idle time' per-cgroup-disk instead of per-cgroup
- Chnage interface name for 'throttle slice'. It's not a real slice
- Make downgrade smooth too
- Make latency sampling work for both bio and request based queue
- Change latency estimation method from 'line fitting' to 'bucket based
calculation'
- Rebase and fix other problems
Issue pointed out by Tejun isn't fixed yet:
- .pd_offline_fn vs .pd_free_fn. .pd_free_fn seems too late to change states
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=148183437022975&w=2
V3->V4:
- Add latency target for cgroup
- Fix bugs
http://marc.info/?l=linux-block&m=147916216512915&w=2
V2->V3:
- Rebase
- Fix several bugs
- Make harddisk think time threshold bigger
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=147552964708965&w=2
V1->V2:
- Drop io.low interface for simplicity and the interface isn't a must-have to
prioritize cgroups.
- Remove the 'trial' logic, which creates too much fluctuation
- Add a new idle cgroup detection
- Other bug fixes and improvements

Here we introduce per-cgroup latency target. The target determines how a
cgroup can afford latency increasement. We will use the target latency
to calculate a threshold and use it to schedule IO for cgroups. If a
cgroup's bandwidth is below its low limit but its average latency is
below the threshold, other cgroups can safely dispatch more IO even
their bandwidth is higher than their low limits. On the other hand, if
the first cgroup's latency is higher than the threshold, other cgroups
are throttled to their low limits. So the target latency determines how
we efficiently utilize free disk resource without sacifice of worload's
IO latency.
For example, assume 4k IO average latency is 50us when disk isn't
congested. A cgroup sets the target latency to 30us. Then the cgroup can
accept 50+30=80us IO latency. If the cgroupt's average IO latency is
90us and its bandwidth is below low limit, other cgroups are throttled
to their low limit. If the cgroup's average IO latency is 60us, other
cgroups are allowed to dispatch more IO. When other cgroups dispatch
more IO, the first cgroup's IO latency will increase. If it increases to
81us, we then throttle other cgroups.
User will configure the interface in this way:
echo "8:16 rbps=2097152 wbps=max latency=100 idle=200" > io.low
latency is in microsecond unit
By default, latency target is 0, which means to guarantee IO latency.

cgroup could be assigned a limit, but doesn't dispatch enough IO, eg the
cgroup is idle. When this happens, the cgroup doesn't hit its limit, so
we can't move the state machine to higher level and all cgroups will be
throttled to their lower limit, so we waste bandwidth. Detecting idle
cgroup is hard. This patch handles a simple case, a cgroup doesn't
dispatch any IO. We ignore such cgroup's limit, so other cgroups can use
the bandwidth.
Please note this will be replaced with a more sophisticated algorithm
later, but this demonstrates the idea how we handle idle cgroups, so I
leave it here.

User configures latency target, but the latency threshold for each
request size isn't fixed. For a SSD, the IO latency highly depends on
request size. To calculate latency threshold, we sample some data, eg,
average latency for request size 4k, 8k, 16k, 32k .. 1M. The latency
threshold of each request size will be the sample latency (I'll call it
base latency) plus latency target. For example, the base latency for
request size 4k is 80us and user configures latency target 60us. The 4k
latency threshold will be 80 + 60 = 140us.
To sample data, we calculate the order base 2 of rounded up IO sectors.
If the IO size is bigger than 1M, it will be accounted as 1M. Since the
calculation does round up, the base latency will be slightly smaller
than actual value. Also if there isn't any IO dispatched for a specific
IO size, we will use the base latency of smaller IO size for this IO
size.
But we shouldn't sample data at any time. The base latency is supposed
to be latency where disk isn't congested, because we use latency
threshold to schedule IOs between cgroups. If disk is congested, the
latency is higher, using it for scheduling is meaningless. Hence we only
do the sampling when block throttling is in the LOW limit, with
assumption disk isn't congested in such state. If the assumption isn't
true, eg, low limit is too high, calculated latency threshold will be
higher.
Hard disk is completely different. Latency depends on spindle seek
instead of request size. Currently this feature is SSD only, we probably
can use a fixed threshold like 4ms for hard disk though.

2.9.3
When cgroups all reach low limit, cgroups can dispatch more IO. This
could make some cgroups dispatch more IO but others not, and even some
cgroups could dispatch less IO than their low limit. For example, cg1
low limit 10MB/s, cg2 limit 80MB/s, assume disk maximum bandwidth is
120M/s for the workload. Their bps could something like this:
cg1/cg2 bps: T1: 10/80 -> T2: 60/60 -> T3: 10/80
At T1, all cgroups reach low limit, so they can dispatch more IO later.
Then cg1 dispatch more IO and cg2 has no room to dispatch enough IO. At
T2, cg2 only dispatches 60M/s. Since We detect cg2 dispatches less IO
than its low limit 80M/s, we downgrade the queue from LIMIT_MAX to
LIMIT_LOW, then all cgroups are throttled to their low limit (T3). cg2
will have bandwidth below its low limit at most time.
The big problem here is we don't know the maximum bandwidth of the
workload, so we can't make smart decision to avoid the situation. This
patch makes cgroup bandwidth change smooth. After disk upgrades from
LIMIT_LOW to LIMIT_MAX, we don't allow cgroups use all bandwidth upto
their max limit immediately. Their bandwidth limit will be increased
gradually to avoid above situation. So above example will became
something like:
cg1/cg2 bps: 10/80 -> 15/105 -> 20/100 -> 25/95 -> 30/90 -> 35/85 -> 40/80
-> 45/75 -> 22/98
In this way cgroups bandwidth will be above their limit in majority
time, this still doesn't fully utilize disk bandwidth, but that's
something we pay for sharing.
Scale up is linear. The limit scales up 1/2 .low limit every
throtl_slice after upgrade. The scale up will stop if the adjusted limit
hits .max limit. Scale down is exponential. We cut the scale value half
if a cgroup doesn't hit its .low limit. If the scale becomes 0, we then
fully downgrade the queue to LIMIT_LOW state.
Note this doesn't completely avoid cgroup running under its low limit.
The best way to guarantee cgroup doesn't run under its limit is to set
max limit. For example, if we set cg1 max limit to 40, cg2 will never
run under its low limit.

2.9.3
A cgroup gets assigned a low limit, but the cgroup could never dispatch
enough IO to cross the low limit. In such case, the queue state machine
will remain in LIMIT_LOW state and all other cgroups will be throttled
according to low limit. This is unfair for other cgroups. We should
treat the cgroup idle and upgrade the state machine to lower state.
We also have a downgrade logic. If the state machine upgrades because of
cgroup idle (real idle), the state machine will downgrade soon as the
cgroup is below its low limit. This isn't what we want. A more
complicated case is cgroup isn't idle when queue is in LIMIT_LOW. But
when queue gets upgraded to lower state, other cgroups could dispatch
more IO and this cgroup can't dispatch enough IO, so the cgroup is below
its low limit and looks like idle (fake idle). In this case, the queue
should downgrade soon. The key to determine if we should do downgrade is
to detect if cgroup is truely idle.
Unfortunately it's very hard to determine if a cgroup is real idle. This
patch uses the 'think time check' idea from CFQ for the purpose. Please
note, the idea doesn't work for all workloads. For example, a workload
with io depth 8 has disk utilization 100%, hence think time is 0, eg,
not idle. But the workload can run higher bandwidth with io depth 16.
Compared to io depth 16, the io depth 8 workload is idle. We use the
idea to roughly determine if a cgroup is idle.
We treat a cgroup idle if its think time is above a threshold (by
default 1ms for SSD and 100ms for HD). The idea is think time above the
threshold will start to harm performance. HD is much slower so a longer
think time is ok.
The patch (and the latter patches) uses 'unsigned long' to track time.
We convert 'ns' to 'us' with 'ns >> 10'. This is fast but loses
precision, should not a big deal.

Last patch introduces a way to detect idle cgroup. We use it to make
upgrade/downgrade decision. And the new algorithm can detect completely
idle cgroup too, so we can delete the corresponding code.

The throtl_slice is 100ms by default. This is a long time for SSD, a lot
of IO can run. To make cgroups have smoother throughput, we choose a
small value (20ms) for SSD.

Hmm, why? As far as I can see, it just makes things worse.

We are going to support low/max limit, each cgroup will have 2 limits
after that. This patch prepares for the multiple limits change.

each queue will have a state machine. Initially queue is in LIMIT_LOW
state, which means all cgroups will be throttled according to their low
limit. After all cgroups with low limit cross the limit, the queue state
gets upgraded to LIMIT_MAX state.
For max limit, cgroup will use the limit configured by user.
For low limit, cgroup will use the minimal value between low limit and
max limit configured by user. If the minimal value is 0, which means the
cgroup doesn't configure low limit, we will use max limit to throttle
the cgroup and the cgroup is ready to upgrade to LIMIT_MAX

2.9.3
One hard problem adding .low limit is to detect idle cgroup. If one
cgroup doesn't dispatch enough IO against its low limit, we must have a
mechanism to determine if other cgroups dispatch more IO. We added the
think time detection mechanism before, but it doesn't work for all
workloads. Here we add a latency based approach.
We already have mechanism to calculate latency threshold for each IO
size. For every IO dispatched from a cgorup, we compare its latency
against its threshold and record the info. If most IO latency is below
threshold (in the code I use 75%), the cgroup could be treated idle and
other cgroups can dispatch more IO.
Currently this latency target check is only for SSD as we can't
calcualte the latency target for hard disk. And this is only for cgroup
leaf node so far.

2.9.3
cgroup could be throttled to a limit but when all cgroups cross high
limit, queue enters a higher state and so the group should be throttled
to a higher limit. It's possible the cgroup is sleeping because of
throttle and other cgroups don't dispatch IO any more. In this case,
nobody can trigger current downgrade/upgrade logic. To fix this issue,
we could either set up a timer to wakeup the cgroup if other cgroups are
idle or make sure this cgroup doesn't sleep too long. Setting up a timer
means we must change the timer very frequently. This patch chooses the
latter. Making cgroup sleep time not too big wouldn't change cgroup
bps/iops, but could make it wakeup more frequently, which isn't a big
issue because throtl_slice * 8 is already quite big.

LIMIT_MAX. To determine if a cgroup exceeds its limitation, we check if
the cgroup has pending request. Since cgroup is throttled according to
the limit, pending request means the cgroup reaches the limit.
If a cgroup has limit set for both read and write, we consider the
combination of them for upgrade. The reason is read IO and write IO can
interfere with each other. If we do the upgrade based in one direction
IO, the other direction IO could be severly harmed.
For a cgroup hierarchy, there are two cases. Children has lower low
limit than parent. Parent's low limit is meaningless. If children's
bps/iops cross low limit, we can upgrade queue state. The other case is
children has higher low limit than parent. Children's low limit is
meaningless. As long as parent's bps/iops (which is a sum of childrens
bps/iops) cross low limit, we can upgrade queue state.

2.9.3
throtl_slice is important for blk-throttling. It's called slice
internally but it really is a time window blk-throttling samples data.
blk-throttling will make decision based on the samplings. An example is
bandwidth measurement. A cgroup's bandwidth is measured in the time
interval of throtl_slice.
A small throtl_slice meanse cgroups have smoother throughput but burn
more CPUs. It has 100ms default value, which is not appropriate for all
disks. A fast SSD can dispatch a lot of IOs in 100ms. This patch makes
it tunable.
Since throtl_slice isn't a time slice, the sysfs name
'throttle_sample_time' reflects its character better.

2.9.3
Add low limit for cgroup and corresponding cgroup interface. To be
consistent with memcg, we allow users configure .low limit higher than
.max limit. But the internal logic always assumes .low limit is lower
than .max limit. So we add extra bps/iops_conf fields in throtl_grp for
userspace configuration. Old bps/iops fields in throtl_grp will be the
actual limit we use for throttling.

Part of the reason is the new callback based blk stat makes enabling stat less
straightforward. I probably can create a fake callback and enalbing the stat
though. Only the last 3 patches depend on this, if you prefer, I can resend
them and add the overload back.

Yeah, I think that would be a big improvement.

Jens,
The 3 patches replace the last two patches (patch 17/18) of the series I sent
out today. The new patch overloads blk stat as you suggested.

Currently there is no way to know the request size when the request is
finished. Next patch will need this info. We could add extra field to
record the size, but blk_issue_stat has enough space to record it, so
this patch just overloads blk_issue_stat. With this, we will have 49bits
to track time, which still is very long time.

One hard problem adding .low limit is to detect idle cgroup. If one
cgroup doesn't dispatch enough IO against its low limit, we must have a
mechanism to determine if other cgroups dispatch more IO. We added the
think time detection mechanism before, but it doesn't work for all
workloads. Here we add a latency based approach.
We already have mechanism to calculate latency threshold for each IO
size. For every IO dispatched from a cgorup, we compare its latency
against its threshold and record the info. If most IO latency is below
threshold (in the code I use 75%), the cgroup could be treated idle and
other cgroups can dispatch more IO.
Currently this latency target check is only for SSD as we can't
calcualte the latency target for hard disk. And this is only for cgroup
leaf node so far.

User configures latency target, but the latency threshold for each
request size isn't fixed. For a SSD, the IO latency highly depends on
request size. To calculate latency threshold, we sample some data, eg,
average latency for request size 4k, 8k, 16k, 32k .. 1M. The latency
threshold of each request size will be the sample latency (I'll call it
base latency) plus latency target. For example, the base latency for
request size 4k is 80us and user configures latency target 60us. The 4k
latency threshold will be 80 + 60 = 140us.
To sample data, we calculate the order base 2 of rounded up IO sectors.
If the IO size is bigger than 1M, it will be accounted as 1M. Since the
calculation does round up, the base latency will be slightly smaller
than actual value. Also if there isn't any IO dispatched for a specific
IO size, we will use the base latency of smaller IO size for this IO
size.
But we shouldn't sample data at any time. The base latency is supposed
to be latency where disk isn't congested, because we use latency
threshold to schedule IOs between cgroups. If disk is congested, the
latency is higher, using it for scheduling is meaningless. Hence we only
do the sampling when block throttling is in the LOW limit, with
assumption disk isn't congested in such state. If the assumption isn't
true, eg, low limit is too high, calculated latency threshold will be
higher.
Hard disk is completely different. Latency depends on spindle seek
instead of request size. Currently this feature is SSD only, we probably
can use a fixed threshold like 4ms for hard disk though.
