Subject: [PATCH v5 0/5] Improve visibility of writeback
Date: Tue, 23 Apr 2024 11:46:38 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240423034643.141219-1-shikemeng@huaweicloud.com> (raw)

v4->v5:
-Add new patch to fix build problem of "writeback: support retrieving
per group debug writeback stats of bdi". The new fix patch can be folded
into it's pre-patch if the pre-patch is not merge into tree or it could
be pick-up to apply.

v3->v4:
-Fix build warning that filepages, headroom and writeback in
cgwb_calc_thresh is used uninitialized when CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK
is not enabled.

v2->v3:
-Drop patches to protect non-exist race and to define GDTC_INIT_NO_WB to
null.
-Add wb_tryget to wb from which we collect stats to bdi stats.
-Create wb_stats when CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK is not enabled.
-Add a blank line between two wb stats in wb_stats.

v1->v2:
-Send cleanup to wq_monitor.py separately.
-Add patch to avoid use after free of bdi.
-Rename wb_calc_cg_thresh to cgwb_calc_thresh as Tejun suggested.
-Use rcu walk to avoid use after free.
-Add debug output to each related patches.

This series tries to improve visilibity of writeback. Patch 1 make
/sys/kernel/debug/bdi/xxx/stats show writeback info of whole bdi
instead of only writeback info in root cgroup. Patch 2 add a new
debug file /sys/kernel/debug/bdi/xxx/wb_stats to show per wb writeback
info. Patch 3 add wb_monitor.py to monitor basic writeback info
of running system, more info could be added on demand. Patch 4
is a random cleanup. More details can be found in respective
patches. Thanks!

Following domain hierarchy is tested:
                global domain (320G)
                /                 \
        cgroup domain1(10G)     cgroup domain2(10G)
                |                 |
bdi            wb1               wb2
