io.cost.qos
A read-write nested-keyed file with exists only on the root
cgroup.
This file configures the Quality of Service of the IO cost
model based controller (CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP_IOCOST) which
currently implements "io.weight" proportional control. Lines
are keyed by $MAJ:$MIN device numbers and not ordered. The
line for a given device is populated on the first write for
the device on "io.cost.qos" or "io.cost.model". The following
nested keys are defined.
====== =====================================
enable Weight-based control enable
ctrl "auto" or "user"
rpct Read latency percentile [0, 100]
rlat Read latency threshold
wpct Write latency percentile [0, 100]
wlat Write latency threshold
min Minimum scaling percentage [1, 10000]
max Maximum scaling percentage [1, 10000]
====== =====================================
The controller is disabled by default and can be enabled by
setting "enable" to 1. "rpct" and "wpct" parameters default
to zero and the controller uses internal device saturation
state to adjust the overall IO rate between "min" and "max".
When a better control quality is needed, latency QoS
parameters can be configured. For example::
8:16 enable=1 ctrl=auto rpct=95.00 rlat=75000 wpct=95.00 wlat=150000 min=50.00 max=150.0
shows that on sdb, the controller is enabled, will consider
the device saturated if the 95th percentile of read completion
latencies is above 75ms or write 150ms, and adjust the overall
IO issue rate between 50% and 150% accordingly.
The lower the saturation point, the better the latency QoS at
the cost of aggregate bandwidth. The narrower the allowed
adjustment range between "min" and "max", the more conformant
to the cost model the IO behavior. Note that the IO issue
base rate may be far off from 100% and setting "min" and "max"
blindly can lead to a significant loss of device capacity or
control quality. "min" and "max" are useful for regulating
devices which show wide temporary behavior changes - e.g. a
ssd which accepts writes at the line speed for a while and
then completely stalls for multiple seconds.
When "ctrl" is "auto", the parameters are controlled by the
kernel and may change automatically. Setting "ctrl" to "user"
or setting any of the percentile and latency parameters puts
it into "user" mode and disables the automatic changes. The
automatic mode can be restored by setting "ctrl" to "auto".
io.cost.model
A read-write nested-keyed file with exists only on the root
cgroup.
This file configures the cost model of the IO cost model based
controller (CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP_IOCOST) which currently
implements "io.weight" proportional control. Lines are keyed
by $MAJ:$MIN device numbers and not ordered. The line for a
given device is populated on the first write for the device on
"io.cost.qos" or "io.cost.model". The following nested keys
are defined.
===== ================================
ctrl "auto" or "user"
model The cost model in use - "linear"
===== ================================
When "ctrl" is "auto", the kernel may change all parameters
dynamically. When "ctrl" is set to "user" or any other
parameters are written to, "ctrl" become "user" and the
automatic changes are disabled.
When "model" is "linear", the following model parameters are
defined.
============= ========================================
[r|w]bps The maximum sequential IO throughput
[r|w]seqiops The maximum 4k sequential IOs per second
[r|w]randiops The maximum 4k random IOs per second
============= ========================================
From the above, the builtin linear model determines the base
costs of a sequential and random IO and the cost coefficient
for the IO size. While simple, this model can cover most
common device classes acceptably.
The IO cost model isn't expected to be accurate in absolute
sense and is scaled to the device behavior dynamically.
If needed, tools/cgroup/iocost_coef_gen.py can be used to
generate device-specific coefficients.
io.weight
A read-write flat-keyed file which exists on non-root cgroups.
The default is "default 100".
