Introduce BPF kfuncs to conveniently access memcg data: - bpf_mem_cgroup_vm_events(), - bpf_mem_cgroup_memory_events(), - bpf_mem_cgroup_usage(), - bpf_mem_cgroup_page_state(), - bpf_mem_cgroup_flush_stats(). These functions are useful for implementing BPF OOM policies, but also can be used to accelerate access to the memcg data. Reading it through cgroupfs is much more expensive, roughly 5x, mostly because of the need to convert the data into the text and back. JP Kobryn: An experiment was setup to compare the performance of a program that uses the traditional method of reading memory.stat vs a program using the new kfuncs. The control program opens up the root memory.stat file and for 1M iterations reads, converts the string values to numeric data, then seeks back to the beginning. The experimental program sets up the requisite libbpf objects and for 1M iterations invokes a bpf program which uses the kfuncs to fetch all available stats for node_stat_item, memcg_stat_item, and vm_event_item types. The results showed a significant perf benefit on the experimental side, outperforming the control side by a margin of 93%. In kernel mode, elapsed time was reduced by 80%, while in user mode, over 99% of time was saved. control: elapsed time real 0m38.318s user 0m25.131s sys 0m13.070s experiment: elapsed time real 0m2.789s user 0m0.187s sys 0m2.512s control: perf data 33.43% a.out libc.so.6 [.] __vfscanf_internal 6.88% a.out [kernel.kallsyms] [k] vsnprintf 6.33% a.out libc.so.6 [.] _IO_fgets 5.51% a.out [kernel.kallsyms] [k] format_decode 4.31% a.out libc.so.6 [.] __GI_____strtoull_l_internal 3.78% a.out [kernel.kallsyms] [k] string 3.53% a.out [kernel.kallsyms] [k] number 2.71% a.out libc.so.6 [.] _IO_sputbackc 2.41% a.out [kernel.kallsyms] [k] strlen 1.98% a.out a.out [.] main 1.70% a.out libc.so.6 [.] _IO_getline_info 1.51% a.out libc.so.6 [.] __isoc99_sscanf 1.47% a.out [kernel.kallsyms] [k] memory_stat_format 1.47% a.out [kernel.kallsyms] [k] memcpy_orig 1.41% a.out [kernel.kallsyms] [k] seq_buf_printf experiment: perf data 10.55% memcgstat bpf_prog_..._query [k] bpf_prog_16aab2f19fa982a7_query 6.90% memcgstat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] memcg_page_state_output 3.55% memcgstat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock 3.12% memcgstat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] memcg_events 2.87% memcgstat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __memcg_slab_post_alloc_hook 2.73% memcgstat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] kmem_cache_free 2.70% memcgstat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] entry_SYSRETQ_unsafe_stack 2.25% memcgstat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __memcg_slab_free_hook 2.06% memcgstat [kernel.kallsyms] [k] get_page_from_freelist Signed-off-by: Roman Gushchin <roman.gushchin@linux.dev> Co-developed-by: JP Kobryn <inwardvessel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: JP Kobryn <inwardvessel@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251223044156.208250-5-roman.gushchin@linux.dev Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> |
