Subject: Transcendent memory ("tmem") for Linux
|
||
|
From: http://xenbits.xensource.com/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg (tip 908:baeb818cd2dc)
|
||
|
Patch-mainline: n/a
|
||
|
|
||
|
Tmem, when called from a tmem-capable (paravirtualized) guest, makes
|
||
|
use of otherwise unutilized ("fallow") memory to create and manage
|
||
|
pools of pages that can be accessed from the guest either as
|
||
|
"ephemeral" pages or as "persistent" pages. In either case, the pages
|
||
|
are not directly addressible by the guest, only copied to and fro via
|
||
|
the tmem interface. Ephemeral pages are a nice place for a guest to
|
||
|
put recently evicted clean pages that it might need again; these pages
|
||
|
can be reclaimed synchronously by Xen for other guests or other uses.
|
||
|
Persistent pages are a nice place for a guest to put "swap" pages to
|
||
|
avoid sending them to disk. These pages retain data as long as the
|
||
|
guest lives, but count against the guest memory allocation.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This patch contains the Linux paravirtualization changes to
|
||
|
complement the tmem Xen patch (xen-unstable c/s 19646). It
|
||
|
implements "precache" (ext3 only as of now), "preswap",
|
||
|
and limited "shared precache" (ocfs2 only as of now) support.
|
||
|
CONFIG options are required to turn on
|
||
|
the support (but in this patch they default to "y"). If
|
||
|
the underlying Xen does not have tmem support or has it
|
||
|
turned off, this is sensed early to avoid nearly all
|
||
|
hypercalls.

||

|
+Normal memory is directly addressable by the kernel, of a known
|
||
|
+normally-fixed size, synchronously accessible, and persistent (though
|
||
|
+not across a reboot).
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+What if there was a class of memory that is of unknown and dynamically
|
||
|
+variable size, is addressable only indirectly by the kernel, can be
|
||
|
+configured either as persistent or as "ephemeral" (meaning it will be
|
||
|
+around for awhile, but might disappear without warning), and is still
|
||
|
+fast enough to be synchronously accessible?
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+We call this latter class "transcendent memory" and it provides an
|
||
|
+interesting opportunity to more efficiently utilize RAM in a virtualized
|
||
|
+environment. However this "memory but not really memory" may also have
|
||
|
+applications in NON-virtualized environments, such as hotplug-memory
|
||
|
+deletion, SSDs, and page cache compression. Others have suggested ideas
|
||
|
+such as allowing use of highmem memory without a highmem kernel, or use
|
||
|
+of spare video memory.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+Transcendent memory, or "tmem" for short, provides a well-defined API to
|
||
|
+access this unusual class of memory. (A summary of the API is provided
|
||
|
+below.) The basic operations are page-copy-based and use a flexible
|
||
|
+object-oriented addressing mechanism. Tmem assumes that some "privileged
|
||
|
+entity" is capable of executing tmem requests and storing pages of data;
|
||
|
+this entity is currently a hypervisor and operations are performed via
|
||
|
+hypercalls, but the entity could be a kernel policy, or perhaps a
|
||
|
+"memory node" in a cluster of blades connected by a high-speed
|
||
|
+interconnect such as hypertransport or QPI.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+Since tmem is not directly accessible and because page copying is done
|
||
|
+to/from physical pageframes, it more suitable for in-kernel memory needs
|
||
|
+than for userland applications. However, there may be yet undiscovered
|
||
|
+userland possibilities.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+With the tmem concept outlined vaguely and its broader potential hinted,
|
||
|
+we will overview two existing examples of how tmem can be used by the
|
||
|
+kernel.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+"Cleancache" can be thought of as a page-granularity victim cache for clean
|
||
|
+pages that the kernel's pageframe replacement algorithm (PFRA) would like
|
||
|
+to keep around, but can't since there isn't enough memory. So when the
|
||
|
+PFRA "evicts" a page, it first puts it into the cleancache via a call to
|
||
|
+tmem. And any time a filesystem reads a page from disk, it first attempts
|
||
|
+to get the page from cleancache. If it's there, a disk access is eliminated.
|
||
|
+If not, the filesystem just goes to the disk like normal. Cleancache is
|
||
|
+"ephemeral" so whether a page is kept in cleancache (between the "put" and
|
||
|
+the "get") is dependent on a number of factors that are invisible to
|
||
|
+the kernel.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+"Frontswap" is so named because it can be thought of as the opposite of
|
||
|
+a "backing store". Frontswap IS persistent, but for various reasons may not
|
||
|
+always be available for use, again due to factors that may not be visible to
|
||
|
+the kernel. (But, briefly, if the kernel is being "good" and has shared its
|
||
|
+resources nicely, then it will be able to use frontswap, else it will not.)
|
||
|
+Once a page is put, a get on the page will always succeed. So when the
|
||
|
+kernel finds itself in a situation where it needs to swap out a page, it
|
||
|
+first attempts to use frontswap. If the put works, a disk write and
|
||
|
+(usually) a disk read are avoided. If it doesn't, the page is written
|
||
|
+to swap as usual. Unlike cleancache, whether a page is stored in frontswap
|
||
|
+vs swap is recorded in kernel data structures, so when a page needs to
|
||
|
+be fetched, the kernel does a get if it is in frontswap and reads from
|
||
|
+swap if it is not in frontswap.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+Both cleancache and frontswap may be optionally compressed, trading off 2x
|
||
|
+space reduction vs 10x performance for access. Cleancache also has a
|
||
|
+sharing feature, which allows different nodes in a "virtual cluster"
|
||
|
+to share a local page cache.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+Tmem has some similarity to IBM's Collaborative Memory Management, but
|
||
|
+creates more of a partnership between the kernel and the "privileged
|
||
|
+entity" and is not very invasive. Tmem may be applicable for KVM and
|
||
|
+containers; there is some disagreement on the extent of its value.
|
||
|
+Tmem is highly complementary to ballooning (aka page granularity hot
|
||
|
+plug) and memory deduplication (aka transparent content-based page
|
||
|
+sharing) but still has value when neither are present.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+Performance is difficult to quantify because some benchmarks respond
|
||
|
+very favorably to increases in memory and tmem may do quite well on
|
||
|
+those, depending on how much tmem is available which may vary widely
|
||
|
+and dynamically, depending on conditions completely outside of the
|
||
|
+system being measured. Ideas on how best to provide useful metrics
|
||
|
+would be appreciated.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+Tmem is supported starting in Xen 4.0 and is in Xen's Linux 2.6.18-xen
|
||
|
+source tree. It is also released as a technology preview in Oracle's
|
||
|
+Xen-based virtualization product, Oracle VM 2.2. Again, Xen is not
|
||
|
+necessarily a requirement, but currently provides the only existing
|
||
|
+implementation of tmem.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+Lots more information about tmem can be found at:
|
||
|
+ http://oss.oracle.com/projects/tmem
|
||
|
+and there was a talk about it on the first day of Linux Symposium in
|
||
|
+July 2009; an updated talk is planned at linux.conf.au in January 2010.
|
||
|
+Tmem is the result of a group effort, including Dan Magenheimer,
|
||
|
+Chris Mason, Dave McCracken, Kurt Hackel and Zhigang Wang, with helpful
|
||
|
+input from Jeremy Fitzhardinge, Keir Fraser, Ian Pratt, Sunil Mushran,
|
||
|
+Joel Becker, and Jan Beulich.

|
+THE TRANSCENDENT MEMORY API
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+Transcendent memory is made up of a set of pools. Each pool is made
|
||
|
+up of a set of objects. And each object contains a set of pages.
|
||
|
+The combination of a 32-bit pool id, a 64-bit object id, and a 32-bit
|
||
|
+page id, uniquely identify a page of tmem data, and this tuple is called
|
||
|
+a "handle." Commonly, the three parts of a handle are used to address
|
||
|
+a filesystem, a file within that filesystem, and a page within that file;
|
||
|
+however an OS can use any values as long as they uniquely identify
|
||
|
+a page of data.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+When a tmem pool is created, it is given certain attributes: It can
|
||
|
+be private or shared, and it can be persistent or ephemeral. Each
|
||
|
+combination of these attributes provides a different set of useful
|
||
|
+functionality and also defines a slightly different set of semantics
|
||
|
+for the various operations on the pool. Other pool attributes include
|
||
|
+the size of the page and a version number.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+Once a pool is created, operations are performed on the pool. Pages
|
||
|
+are copied between the OS and tmem and are addressed using a handle.
|
||
|
+Pages and/or objects may also be flushed from the pool. When all
|
||
|
+operations are completed, a pool can be destroyed.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+The specific tmem functions are called in Linux through a set of
|
||
|
+accessor functions:
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+int (*new_pool)(struct tmem_pool_uuid uuid, u32 flags);
|
||
|
+int (*destroy_pool)(u32 pool_id);
|
||
|
+int (*put_page)(u32 pool_id, u64 object, u32 index, unsigned long pfn);
|
||
|
+int (*get_page)(u32 pool_id, u64 object, u32 index, unsigned long pfn);
|
||
|
+int (*flush_page)(u32 pool_id, u64 object, u32 index);
|
||
|
+int (*flush_object)(u32 pool_id, u64 object);
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+The new_pool accessor creates a new pool and returns a pool id
|
||
|
+which is a non-negative 32-bit integer. If the flags parameter
|
||
|
+specifies that the pool is to be shared, the uuid is a 128-bit "shared
|
||
|
+secret" else it is ignored. The destroy_pool accessor destroys the pool.
|
||
|
+(Note: shared pools are not supported until security implications
|
||
|
+are better understood.)
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+The put_page accessor copies a page of data from the specified pageframe
|
||
|
+and associates it with the specified handle.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+The get_page accessor looks up a page of data in tmem associated with
|
||
|
+the specified handle and, if found, copies it to the specified pageframe.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+The flush_page accessor ensures that subsequent gets of a page with
|
||
|
+the specified handle will fail. The flush_object accessor ensures
|
||
|
+that subsequent gets of any page matching the pool id and object
|
||
|
+will fail.
|
||
|
+
|
||
|
+There are many subtle but critical behaviors for get_page and put_page:
|
||
|
+- Any put_page (with one notable exception) may be rejected and the client
|
||
|
+ must be prepared to deal with that failure. A put_page copies, NOT moves,
|
||
|
+ data; that is the data exists in both places. Linux is responsible for
|
||
|
+ destroying or overwriting its own copy, or alternately managing any
|
||
|
+ coherency between the copies.
|
||
|
+- Every page successfully put to a persistent pool must be found by a
|
||
|
+ subsequent get_page that specifies the same handle. A page successfully
|
||
|
+ put to an ephemeral pool has an indeterminate lifetime and even an
|
||
|
+ immediately subsequent get_page may fail.
|
||
|
+- A get_page to a private pool is destructive, that is it behaves as if
|
||
|
+ the get_page were atomically followed by a flush_page. A get_page
|
||
|
+ to a shared pool is non-destructive. A flush_page behaves just like
|
||
|
+ a get_page to a private pool except the data is thrown away.
|
||
|
+- Put-put-get coherency is guaranteed. For example, after the sequence:
|
||
|
+ put_page(ABC,D1);
|
||
|
+ put_page(ABC,D2);
|
||
|
+ get_page(ABC,E)
|
||
|
+ E may never contain the data from D1. However, even for a persistent
|
||
|
+ pool, the get_page may fail if the second put_page indicates failure.
|
||
|
+- Get-get coherency is guaranteed. For example, in the sequence:
|
||
|
+ put_page(ABC,D);
|
||
|
+ get_page(ABC,E1);
|
||
|
+ get_page(ABC,E2)
|
||
|
+ if the first get_page fails, the second must also fail.
|
||
|
+- A tmem implementation provides no serialization guarantees (e.g. to
|
||
|
+ an SMP Linux). So if different Linux threads are putting and flushing
|
||
|
+ the same page, the results are indeterminate.

|
||
|
+ *
|
||
|
+ * Implements "precache" for filesystems/pagecache on top of transcendent
|
||
|
+ * memory ("tmem") API. A filesystem creates an "ephemeral tmem pool"
|
||
|
+ * and retains the returned pool_id in its superblock. Clean pages evicted
|
||
|
+ * from pagecache may be "put" into the pool and associated with a "handle"
|
||
|
+ * consisting of the pool_id, an object (inode) id, and an index (page offset).
|
||
|
+ * Note that the page is copied to tmem; no kernel mappings are changed.
|
||
|
+ * If the page is later needed, the filesystem (or VFS) issues a "get", passing
|
||
|
+ * the same handle and an empty pageframe. If successful, the page is copied
|
||
|
+ * into the pageframe and a disk read is avoided. But since the tmem pool
|
||
|
+ * is of indeterminate size, a "put" page has indeterminate longevity
|
||
|
+ * ("ephemeral"), and the "get" may fail, in which case the filesystem must
|
||
|
+ * read the page from disk as before. Note that the filesystem/pagecache are
|
||
|
+ * responsible for maintaining coherency between the pagecache, precache,
|
||
|
+ * and the disk, for which "flush page" and "flush object" actions are
|
||
|
+ * provided. And when a filesystem is unmounted, it must "destroy" the pool.
|
||
|
+ *
|
||
|
+ * Two types of pools may be created for a precache: "private" or "shared".
|
||
|
+ * For a private pool, a successful "get" always flushes, implementing
|
||
|
+ * exclusive semantics; for a "shared" pool (which is intended for use by
|
||
|
+ * co-resident nodes of a cluster filesystem), the "flush" is not guaranteed.
|
||
|
+ * In either case, a failed "duplicate" put (overwrite) always guarantee
|
||
|
+ * the old data is flushed.
|
||
|
+ *
|
||
|
+ * Note also that multiple accesses to a tmem pool may be concurrent and any
|
||
|
+ * ordering must be guaranteed by the caller.

|
+ * linux/mm/preswap.c
|
||
|
+ *
|
||
|
+ * Implements a fast "preswap" on top of the transcendent memory ("tmem") API.
|
||
|
+ * When a swapdisk is enabled (with swapon), a "private persistent tmem pool"
|
||
|
+ * is created along with a bit-per-page preswap_map. When swapping occurs
|
||
|
+ * and a page is about to be written to disk, a "put" into the pool may first
|
||
|
+ * be attempted by passing the pageframe to be swapped, along with a "handle"
|
||
|
+ * consisting of a pool_id, an object id, and an index. Since the pool is of
|
||
|
+ * indeterminate size, the "put" may be rejected, in which case the page
|
||
|
+ * is swapped to disk as normal. If the "put" is successful, the page is
|
||
|
+ * copied to tmem and the preswap_map records the success. Later, when
|
||
|
+ * the page needs to be swapped in, the preswap_map is checked and, if set,
|
||
|
+ * the page may be obtained with a "get" operation. Note that the swap
|
||
|
+ * subsystem is responsible for: maintaining coherency between the swapcache,
|
||
|
+ * preswap, and the swapdisk; for evicting stale pages from preswap; and for
|
||
|
+ * emptying preswap when swapoff is performed. The "flush page" and "flush
|
||
|
+ * object" actions are provided for this.
|
||
|
+ *
|
||
|
+ * Note that if a "duplicate put" is performed to overwrite a page and
|
||
|
+ * the "put" operation fails, the page (and old data) is flushed and lost.
|
||
|
+ * Also note that multiple accesses to a tmem pool may be concurrent and
|
||
|
+ * any ordering must be guaranteed by the caller.
