A customer provided some evidence which indicates that the idle tick was stopped; albeit, CPU-specific vmstat counters still remained populated. Thus one can only assume quiet_vmstat() was not invoked on return to the idle loop. If I understand correctly, I suspect this divergence might erroneously prevent a reclaim attempt by kswapd. If the number of zone specific free pages are below their per-cpu drift value then zone_page_state_snapshot() is used to compute a more accurate view of the aforementioned statistic. Thus any task blocked on the NUMA node specific pfmemalloc_wait queue will be unable to make significant progress via direct reclaim unless it is killed after being woken up by kswapd (see throttle_direct_reclaim()) 2. With a SCHED_FIFO task that busy loops on a given CPU, and kworker for that CPU at SCHED_OTHER priority, queuing work to sync per-vmstats will either cause that work to never execute, or stalld (i.e. stall daemon) boosts kworker priority which causes a latency violation By having vmstat_shepherd flush the per-CPU counters to the global counters from remote CPUs. This is done using cmpxchg to manipulate the counters, both CPU locally (via the account functions), and remotely (via cpu_vm_stats_fold). Thanks to Aaron Tomlin for diagnosing issue 1 and writing the initial patch series. v2: - actually use LOCK CMPXCHG on counter mod/inc/dec functions (Christoph Lameter) - use try_cmpxchg for cmpxchg loops (Uros Bizjak / Matthew Wilcox) arch/arm64/include/asm/percpu.h | 16 ++- arch/loongarch/include/asm/percpu.h | 23 ++++ arch/s390/include/asm/percpu.h | 5 + arch/x86/include/asm/percpu.h | 39 ++++---- include/asm-generic/percpu.h | 17 +++ include/linux/mmzone.h | 3 kernel/fork.c | 2 kernel/scs.c | 2 mm/vmstat.c | 424 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------------------------ 9 files changed, 308 insertions(+), 223 deletions(-)
