Hi,
Here is my new attempt to get a per-container version of some
/proc data such as /proc/stat and /proc/uptime.
In this series I solved the visibility problem, which is,
the problem of how and when to show /proc/stat data per-cgroup,
by declaring it not a problem.
This can probably be done in userspace with other aids, like mounting
a fuse overlay that simulates /proc from outside a container, to a
container location.
Here, we should have most of the data needed to do that. They are drawn
from both the cpu cgroup, and cpuacct. Each cgroup exports the data it
knows better, and I am not really worried here about bindings between them.
In this first version, I am using clock_t units, being quite proc-centric.
It made my testing easier, but I am happy to show any units you guys would
prefer.
Besides that, it still has some other minor issues to be sorted out.
But I verified the general direction to be working, and would like to know
what you think.
Thanks

Instead of just having the rq to hold them, this patch stores
the nr_iowait figures for each task_group, except for the root
task group. That one is kept using the numbers originating from
the rq.

We already track multiple tick statistics per-cgroup, using
the task_group_account_field facility. This patch accounts
guest_time in that manner as well.

| [PATCH 5/5] expose per-taskgroup schedstats in cgroup [message #45159 is a reply to message #45156] |

This patch aims at exposing stat information per-cgroup, such as:
* idle time,
* iowait time,
* steal time,
and friends. The ultimate goal is to be able to present a per-container view of
/proc/stat inside a container. With this patch, everything that is needed to do
that is in place, except for number of switches and number of tasks.
I achieve that by hooking into the schedstats framework, so although the
overhead of that is prone to discussion, I am not adding anything, but reusing
what's already there instead. The exception being that the data is now computed
and stored in non-task se's as well, instead of entity_is_task() branches.
However, I expect this to be minimum comparing to the alternative of adding new
hierarchy walks. Those are kept intact.
Note that in this first version, I am using clock_t units, being quite
proc-centric. It made my testing easier, but I am happy to show any units
you guys would prefer.

The cpuacct cgroup already exposes user and system numbers in a per-cgroup
fashion. But they are a summation along the whole group, not a per-cpu figure.
Also, they are coarse-grained version of the stats usually shown at places
like /proc/stat.
I want to have enough cgroup data to emulate the /proc/stat interface. To
achieve that, I am creating a new file "stat_percpu" that displays the
fine-grained per-cpu data. The original data is left alone.
Note that in this first version, I am using clock_t units, being quite
proc-centric. It made my testing easier, but I am happy to show any units
you guys would prefer.

Hi,
By declaring proc visibility not a problem and sticking to io stats,
you sort of left me where I don't know what I'm talking about :) So
let me just say, on patch 2, "store number of iowait events in a task_group",
my initial reaction is "boy that's a lot more work. What is the performance
impact?"
It'd be possible to move the extra processing out of the hot-path by
only changing the # for the deepest cgroup, and pulling it into
ancestor cgroups only when someone is viewing the stats or the child
cgroup goes away. But if you have #s showing statistically negligable
performance impact anyway then that wouldn't be worth it.

Heh. Do you at least agree with the approach of just dumping the
information in cgroup files, so we can join them later? (be it via
userspace or in a follow up kernel patch if the need really arises from
real workloads?)
Do you have any comments on any preferred format?

Yeah, The first thing I need to do if I'm carrying this forward is to
measure that.

In principle, should be doable. We discussed this briefly (me and Peter)
once, and the problem is that it of course imposes a hit on the readers.
If you're reading often enough (can be the case for things polling
/proc/stat), this can be a problem.
But if we are really doing this, we can very well do it for all stats,
not only iowait...

Need to work on that.
