[PATCH, v8 1/3] hrtimer: introduce effective timer slack

[Kirill A. Shutsemov]

From: Kirill A. Shutemov <kirill@shutemov.name>

task_get_effective_timer_slack() returns timer slack value to be used
to configure per-task timers. It can be equal or higher than task's
timer slack value.

For now task_get_effective_timer_slack() returns timer_slack_ns of the
task. Timer slack cgroup controller will implement a bit more
sophisticated logic.

Some time ago, there was a discussion about a method for automatically
determining timer slack values, and I think nobody ever implemented it.

The idea was to penalize tasks that have timers expiring a lot, typically
a sign of programs that were not written with power consumption in mind.

I think that could be nicely combined with your patch. Instead of setting
the effective timer slack for the entire control group, you  could
set a target value that is applied only to tasks that have their timers
expire frequently. When a timer expires for a task, you increase the
effective slack up to the maximum, and when you set up a timer, you
decrease it again. The amount by which the effective slack gets changed
can depend on how long ago the last timer expired.

Does this make sense to you?

Hm.. I think we can add this kind of functionality to timer slack cgroup
as a policy/stratagy later. I want to integrate basic functionality to
kernel first.

Yes, makes sense. I wasn't objecting the current patch set, just trying
to make sure that the other idea does not get lost, and we don't introduce
anything now that prevents us from doing it later.

[PATCH, v8 3/3] cgroups: introduce timer slack controller

[Kirill A. Shutsemov]

From: Kirill A. Shutemov <kirill@shutemov.name>

Every task_struct has timer_slack_ns value. This value uses to round up
poll() and select() timeout values. This feature can be useful in
mobile environment where combined wakeups are desired.

cgroup subsys "timer_slack" implement timer slack controller. It
provides a way to set minimal timer slack value for a group of tasks.
If a task belongs to a cgroup with minimal timer slack value higher than
task's value, cgroup's value will be applied.

+Timer Slack Controller
+=====================
+
+Overview
+--------
+
+Every task_struct has timer_slack_ns value. This value uses to round up
+poll() and select() timeout values. This feature can be useful in
+mobile environment where combined wakeups are desired.
+
+cgroup subsys "timer_slack" implements timer slack controller. It
+provides a way to set minimal timer slack value for a group of tasks.
+If a task belongs to a cgroup with minimal timer slack value higher than
+task's value, cgroup's value will be applied.
+
+User interface
+--------------
+
+To get timer slack controller functionality you need to enable it in
+kernel configuration:
+
+CONFIG_CGROUP_TIMER_SLACK=y
+
+The controller provides two files:
+
+# mount -t cgroup -o timer_slack none /sys/fs/cgroup
+# ls /sys/fs/cgroup/timer_slack.*
+/sys/fs/cgroup/timer_slack.effective_slack_ns
+/sys/fs/cgroup/timer_slack.min_slack_ns
+
+By default timer_slack.min_slack_ns is 0:
+
+# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/timer_slack.min_slack_ns
+0
+
+You can set it to some value:
+
+# echo 50000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/timer_slack.min_slack_ns
+# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/timer_slack.min_slack_ns
+50000
+
+Tasks still can set task's value below 50000 using prctl(), but in this
+case cgroup's value will be applied.
+
+Timer slack controller supports hierarchical groups.
+
+# mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/a
+# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/a/timer_slack.min_slack_ns
+50000
+# echo 70000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/a/timer_slack.min_slack_ns
+# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/a/timer_slack.min_slack_ns
+70000
+
+You can set any value you want, but effective value will the highest value
+up by hierarchy. You can see effective timer slack value for the cgroup from
+timer_slack.effective_slack_ns file:
+
+# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/a/timer_slack.effective_slack_ns
+70000
+# echo 100000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/timer_slack.min_slack_ns
+# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/a/timer_slack.min_slack_ns
+70000
+# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/a/timer_slack.effective_slack_ns

All I'm seeing here is a bunch of code, but no reason has been provided
for merging any of it.

Why do we need a cgroup for this as opposed to (say) inheritance over
fork(), or a system-wide knob, or a per-process/threadgroup knob, or
just leaving the existing code as-is?  Presumably you felt that a
cgroup approach is better for manageability, but you didn't tell us
about this and you didn't explore alternative ways of solving the
problem-which-you-didn't-describe.


Carefully describing the proposed feature and the overall value which
it brings does help to grease the wheels and is worth spending some
time over, please.  Don't expect the entire audience to be mind-readers!
