22 * Double CLOCK lists
23 *
24 * Per node, two clock lists are maintained for file pages: the
25 * inactive and the active list. Freshly faulted pages start out at
26 * the head of the inactive list and page reclaim scans pages from the
27 * tail. Pages that are accessed multiple times on the inactive list
28 * are promoted to the active list, to protect them from reclaim,
29 * whereas active pages are demoted to the inactive list when the
30 * active list grows too big.
31 *
32 * fault ------------------------+
33 * |
34 * +--------------+ | +-------------+
35 * reclaim <- | inactive | <-+-- demotion | active | <--+
36 * +--------------+ +-------------+ |
37 * | |
38 * +-------------- promotion ------------------+
39 *
40 *
41 * Access frequency and refault distance
42 *
43 * A workload is thrashing when its pages are frequently used but they
44 * are evicted from the inactive list every time before another access
45 * would have promoted them to the active list.
46 *
47 * In cases where the average access distance between thrashing pages
48 * is bigger than the size of memory there is nothing that can be
49 * done - the thrashing set could never fit into memory under any
50 * circumstance.
51 *
52 * However, the average access distance could be bigger than the
53 * inactive list, yet smaller than the size of memory. In this case,
54 * the set could fit into memory if it weren't for the currently
55 * active pages - which may be used more, hopefully less frequently:
56 *
57 * +-memory available to cache-+
58 * | |
59 * +-inactive------+-active----+
60 * a b | c d e f g h i | J K L M N |
61 * +---------------+-----------+
62 *
63 * It is prohibitively expensive to accurately track access frequency
64 * of pages. But a reasonable approximation can be made to measure
65 * thrashing on the inactive list, after which refaulting pages can be
66 * activated optimistically to compete with the existing active pages.
67 *
68 * Approximating inactive page access frequency - Observations:
69 *
70 * 1. When a page is accessed for the first time, it is added to the
71 * head of the inactive list, slides every existing inactive page
72 * towards the tail by one slot, and pushes the current tail page
73 * out of memory.
74 *
75 * 2. When a page is accessed for the second time, it is promoted to
76 * the active list, shrinking the inactive list by one slot. This
77 * also slides all inactive pages that were faulted into the cache
78 * more recently than the activated page towards the tail of the
79 * inactive list.
80 *
81 * Thus:
82 *
83 * 1. The sum of evictions and activations between any two points in
84 * time indicate the minimum number of inactive pages accessed in
85 * between.
86 *
87 * 2. Moving one inactive page N page slots towards the tail of the
88 * list requires at least N inactive page accesses.
89 *
90 * Combining these:
91 *
92 * 1. When a page is finally evicted from memory, the number of
93 * inactive pages accessed while the page was in cache is at least
94 * the number of page slots on the inactive list.
95 *
96 * 2. In addition, measuring the sum of evictions and activations (E)
97 * at the time of a page's eviction, and comparing it to another
98 * reading (R) at the time the page faults back into memory tells
99 * the minimum number of accesses while the page was not cached.
100 * This is called the refault distance.
101 *
102 * Because the first access of the page was the fault and the second
103 * access the refault, we combine the in-cache distance with the
104 * out-of-cache distance to get the complete minimum access distance
105 * of this page:
106 *
107 * NR_inactive + (R - E)
108 *
109 * And knowing the minimum access distance of a page, we can easily
110 * tell if the page would be able to stay in cache assuming all page
111 * slots in the cache were available:
112 *
113 * NR_inactive + (R - E) <= NR_inactive + NR_active
114 *
115 * If we have swap we should consider about NR_inactive_anon and
116 * NR_active_anon, so for page cache and anonymous respectively:
117 *
118 * NR_inactive_file + (R - E) <= NR_inactive_file + NR_active_file
119 * + NR_inactive_anon + NR_active_anon
120 *
121 * NR_inactive_anon + (R - E) <= NR_inactive_anon + NR_active_anon
122 * + NR_inactive_file + NR_active_file
123 *
124 * Which can be further simplified to:
125 *
126 * (R - E) <= NR_active_file + NR_inactive_anon + NR_active_anon
127 *
128 * (R - E) <= NR_active_anon + NR_inactive_file + NR_active_file
129 *
130 * Put into words, the refault distance (out-of-cache) can be seen as
131 * a deficit in inactive list space (in-cache). If the inactive list
132 * had (R - E) more page slots, the page would not have been evicted
133 * in between accesses, but activated instead. And on a full system,
134 * the only thing eating into inactive list space is active pages.
135 *
136 *
137 * Refaulting inactive pages
138 *
139 * All that is known about the active list is that the pages have been
140 * accessed more than once in the past. This means that at any given
141 * time there is actually a good chance that pages on the active list
142 * are no longer in active use.
143 *
144 * So when a refault distance of (R - E) is observed and there are at
145 * least (R - E) pages in the userspace workingset, the refaulting page
146 * is activated optimistically in the hope that (R - E) pages are actually
147 * used less frequently than the refaulting page - or even not used at
148 * all anymore.
149 *
150 * That means if inactive cache is refaulting with a suitable refault
151 * distance, we assume the cache workingset is transitioning and put
152 * pressure on the current workingset.
153 *
154 * If this is wrong and demotion kicks in, the pages which are truly
155 * used more frequently will be reactivated while the less frequently
156 * used once will be evicted from memory.
157 *
158 * But if this is right, the stale pages will be pushed out of memory
159 * and the used pages get to stay in cache.
160 *
161 * Refaulting active pages
162 *
163 * If on the other hand the refaulting pages have recently been
164 * deactivated, it means that the active list is no longer protecting
165 * actively used cache from reclaim. The cache is NOT transitioning to
166 * a different workingset; the existing workingset is thrashing in the
167 * space allocated to the page cache.
168 *
169 *
170 * Implementation
171 *
172 * For each node's LRU lists, a counter for inactive evictions and
173 * activations is maintained (node->nonresident_age).
174 *
175 * On eviction, a snapshot of this counter (along with some bits to
176 * identify the node) is stored in the now empty page cache
177 * slot of the evicted page. This is called a shadow entry.
178 *
179 * On cache misses for which there are shadow entries, an eligible
180 * refault distance will immediately activate the refaulting page.
