mm: default collapse huge pages if there's at least 1/4th ptes mapped A huge page may be collapsed by khugepaged if there's not more than khugepaged_max_ptes_none unmapped ptes (configured via sysfs). The latter equals 511 (HPAGE_PMD_NR - 1) by default, which results in noticeable growth in memory footprint if a process has a sparse address space. Experiments have shown (see bug-id below) that decreasing the threshold down to 384 (3/4*HPAGE_PMD_NR) results in no performance degradation for VMs and CTs and at the same time improves test results for VMs (because qemu has a sparse heap). So let's set it by default. https://jira.sw.ru/browse/PSBM-48885 Signed-off-by: Vladimir Davydov <vdavy...@virtuozzo.com> Signed-off-by: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabi...@virtuozzo.com> (cherry-picked from vz8 commit 5878a943f42e ("mm: default collapse huge pages if there's at least 1/4th ptes mapped")) Signed-off-by: Nikita Yushchenko <nikita.yushche...@virtuozzo.com> --- mm/khugepaged.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/mm/khugepaged.c b/mm/khugepaged.c index b0412be08fa2..f0f290dbcd02 100644 --- a/mm/khugepaged.c +++ b/mm/khugepaged.c @@ -392,7 +392,7 @@ int __init khugepaged_init(void) return -ENOMEM; khugepaged_pages_to_scan = HPAGE_PMD_NR * 8; - khugepaged_max_ptes_none = HPAGE_PMD_NR - 1; + khugepaged_max_ptes_none = HPAGE_PMD_NR*3/4; khugepaged_max_ptes_swap = HPAGE_PMD_NR / 8; khugepaged_max_ptes_shared = HPAGE_PMD_NR / 2; _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@openvz.org https://lists.openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
