Johannes Weiner May 7, 2018, 9:01 p.m. UTC
On a system that executes multiple cgrouped jobs and independent
workloads, we don't just care about the health of the overall system,
but also that of individual jobs, so that we can ensure individual job
health, fairness between jobs, or prioritize some jobs over others.

This patch implements pressure stall tracking for cgroups. In kernels
with CONFIG_PSI=y, cgroups will have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure,
and io.pressure files that track aggregate pressure stall times for
only the tasks inside the cgroup.

TJ fixed needing that for stats at some point, why can't you do the
same?

The stats deltas are all additive, so it's okay to delay flushing them
up the tree right before somebody is trying to look at them.

With this, though, we are tracking time of an aggregate state composed
of child tasks, and that state might not be identical for you and all
your ancestor, so everytime a task state changes we have to evaluate
and start/stop clocks on every level, because we cannot derive our
state from the state history of our child groups.

For example, say you have the following tree:

              root
             /
            A
          /   \
         A1   A2
  running=1   running=1

I.e. There is a a running task in A1 and one in A2.

root, A, A1, and A2 are all PSI_NONE as nothing is stalled.

Now the task in A2 enters a memstall.

              root
             /
            A
          /   \
         A1   A2
  running=1   memstall=1

From the perspective of A2, the group is now fully blocked and starts
recording time in PSI_FULL.

From the perspective of A, it has a working group below it and a
stalled one, which would make it PSI_SOME, so it starts recording time
in PSI_SOME.

The root/sytem level likewise has to start the timer on PSI_SOME.

Now the task in A1 enters a memstall, and we have to propagate the
PSI_FULL state up A1 -> A -> root.

I'm not quite sure how we could make this lazy. Say we hadn't
propagated the state from A1 and A2 right away, and somebody is asking
about the averages for A. We could tell that A1 and A2 had been in
PSI_FULL recently, but we wouldn't know exactly if them being in these
states fully overlapped (all PSI_FULL), overlapped partially (some
PSI_FULL and some PSI_SOME), or didn't overlap at all (PSI_SOME).
