-Cleancache
-==========
-
-Motivation
-==========
-
-Cleancache is a new optional feature provided by the VFS layer that
-potentially dramatically increases page cache effectiveness for
-many workloads in many environments at a negligible cost.
-
-Cleancache can be thought of as a page-granularity victim cache for clean
-pages that the kernel's pageframe replacement algorithm (PFRA) would like
-to keep around, but can't since there isn't enough memory. So when the
-PFRA "evicts" a page, it first attempts to use cleancache code to
-put the data contained in that page into "transcendent memory", memory
-that is not directly accessible or addressable by the kernel and is
-of unknown and possibly time-varying size.
-
-Later, when a cleancache-enabled filesystem wishes to access a page
-in a file on disk, it first checks cleancache to see if it already
-contains it; if it does, the page of data is copied into the kernel
-and a disk access is avoided.
-
-Transcendent memory "drivers" for cleancache are currently implemented
-in Xen (using hypervisor memory) and zcache (using in-kernel compressed
-memory) and other implementations are in development.
-
-:ref:`FAQs <faq>` are included below.
-
-Implementation Overview
-=======================
-
-A cleancache "backend" that provides transcendent memory registers itself
-to the kernel's cleancache "frontend" by calling cleancache_register_ops,
-passing a pointer to a cleancache_ops structure with funcs set appropriately.
-The functions provided must conform to certain semantics as follows:
-
-Most important, cleancache is "ephemeral". Pages which are copied into
-cleancache have an indefinite lifetime which is completely unknowable
-by the kernel and so may or may not still be in cleancache at any later time.
-Thus, as its name implies, cleancache is not suitable for dirty pages.
-Cleancache has complete discretion over what pages to preserve and what
-pages to discard and when.
-
-Mounting a cleancache-enabled filesystem should call "init_fs" to obtain a
-pool id which, if positive, must be saved in the filesystem's superblock;
-a negative return value indicates failure. A "put_page" will copy a
-(presumably about-to-be-evicted) page into cleancache and associate it with
-the pool id, a file key, and a page index into the file. (The combination
-of a pool id, a file key, and an index is sometimes called a "handle".)
-A "get_page" will copy the page, if found, from cleancache into kernel memory.
-An "invalidate_page" will ensure the page no longer is present in cleancache;
-an "invalidate_inode" will invalidate all pages associated with the specified
-file; and, when a filesystem is unmounted, an "invalidate_fs" will invalidate
-all pages in all files specified by the given pool id and also surrender
-the pool id.
-
-An "init_shared_fs", like init_fs, obtains a pool id but tells cleancache
-to treat the pool as shared using a 128-bit UUID as a key. On systems
-that may run multiple kernels (such as hard partitioned or virtualized
-systems) that may share a clustered filesystem, and where cleancache
-may be shared among those kernels, calls to init_shared_fs that specify the
-same UUID will receive the same pool id, thus allowing the pages to
-be shared. Note that any security requirements must be imposed outside
-of the kernel (e.g. by "tools" that control cleancache). Or a
-cleancache implementation can simply disable shared_init by always
-returning a negative value.
-
-If a get_page is successful on a non-shared pool, the page is invalidated
-(thus making cleancache an "exclusive" cache). On a shared pool, the page
-is NOT invalidated on a successful get_page so that it remains accessible to
-other sharers. The kernel is responsible for ensuring coherency between
-cleancache (shared or not), the page cache, and the filesystem, using
-cleancache invalidate operations as required.
-
-Note that cleancache must enforce put-put-get coherency and get-get
-coherency. For the former, if two puts are made to the same handle but
-with different data, say AAA by the first put and BBB by the second, a
-subsequent get can never return the stale data (AAA). For get-get coherency,
-if a get for a given handle fails, subsequent gets for that handle will
-never succeed unless preceded by a successful put with that handle.
-
-Last, cleancache provides no SMP serialization guarantees; if two
-different Linux threads are simultaneously putting and invalidating a page
-with the same handle, the results are indeterminate. Callers must
-lock the page to ensure serial behavior.
-
-Cleancache Performance Metrics
-==============================
-
-If properly configured, monitoring of cleancache is done via debugfs in
-the `/sys/kernel/debug/cleancache` directory. The effectiveness of cleancache
-can be measured (across all filesystems) with:
-
-``succ_gets``
- number of gets that were successful
-
-``failed_gets``
- number of gets that failed
-
-``puts``
- number of puts attempted (all "succeed")
-
-``invalidates``
- number of invalidates attempted
-
-A backend implementation may provide additional metrics.
-
-.. _faq:
-
-FAQ
-===
-
-* Where's the value? (Andrew Morton)
-
-Cleancache provides a significant performance benefit to many workloads
-in many environments with negligible overhead by improving the
-effectiveness of the pagecache. Clean pagecache pages are
-saved in transcendent memory (RAM that is otherwise not directly
-addressable to the kernel); fetching those pages later avoids "refaults"
-and thus disk reads.
-
-Cleancache (and its sister code "frontswap") provide interfaces for
-this transcendent memory (aka "tmem"), which conceptually lies between
-fast kernel-directly-addressable RAM and slower DMA/asynchronous devices.
-Disallowing direct kernel or userland reads/writes to tmem
-is ideal when data is transformed to a different form and size (such
-as with compression) or secretly moved (as might be useful for write-
-balancing for some RAM-like devices). Evicted page-cache pages (and
-swap pages) are a great use for this kind of slower-than-RAM-but-much-
-faster-than-disk transcendent memory, and the cleancache (and frontswap)
-"page-object-oriented" specification provides a nice way to read and
-write -- and indirectly "name" -- the pages.
-
-In the virtual case, the whole point of virtualization is to statistically
-multiplex physical resources across the varying demands of multiple
-virtual machines. This is really hard to do with RAM and efforts to
-do it well with no kernel change have essentially failed (except in some
-well-publicized special-case workloads). Cleancache -- and frontswap --
-with a fairly small impact on the kernel, provide a huge amount
-of flexibility for more dynamic, flexible RAM multiplexing.
-Specifically, the Xen Transcendent Memory backend allows otherwise
-"fallow" hypervisor-owned RAM to not only be "time-shared" between multiple
-virtual machines, but the pages can be compressed and deduplicated to
-optimize RAM utilization. And when guest OS's are induced to surrender
-underutilized RAM (e.g. with "self-ballooning"), page cache pages
-are the first to go, and cleancache allows those pages to be
-saved and reclaimed if overall host system memory conditions allow.
-
-And the identical interface used for cleancache can be used in
-physical systems as well. The zcache driver acts as a memory-hungry
-device that stores pages of data in a compressed state. And
-the proposed "RAMster" driver shares RAM across multiple physical
-systems.
-
-* Why does cleancache have its sticky fingers so deep inside the
- filesystems and VFS? (Andrew Morton and Christoph Hellwig)
-
-The core hooks for cleancache in VFS are in most cases a single line
-and the minimum set are placed precisely where needed to maintain
-coherency (via cleancache_invalidate operations) between cleancache,
-the page cache, and disk. All hooks compile into nothingness if
-cleancache is config'ed off and turn into a function-pointer-
-compare-to-NULL if config'ed on but no backend claims the ops
-functions, or to a compare-struct-element-to-negative if a
-backend claims the ops functions but a filesystem doesn't enable
-cleancache.
-
-Some filesystems are built entirely on top of VFS and the hooks
-in VFS are sufficient, so don't require an "init_fs" hook; the
-initial implementation of cleancache didn't provide this hook.
-But for some filesystems (such as btrfs), the VFS hooks are
-incomplete and one or more hooks in fs-specific code are required.
-And for some other filesystems, such as tmpfs, cleancache may
-be counterproductive. So it seemed prudent to require a filesystem
-to "opt in" to use cleancache, which requires adding a hook in
-each filesystem. Not all filesystems are supported by cleancache
-only because they haven't been tested. The existing set should
-be sufficient to validate the concept, the opt-in approach means
-that untested filesystems are not affected, and the hooks in the
-existing filesystems should make it very easy to add more
-filesystems in the future.
-
-The total impact of the hooks to existing fs and mm files is only
-about 40 lines added (not counting comments and blank lines).
-
-* Why not make cleancache asynchronous and batched so it can more
- easily interface with real devices with DMA instead of copying each
- individual page? (Minchan Kim)
-
-The one-page-at-a-time copy semantics simplifies the implementation
-on both the frontend and backend and also allows the backend to
-do fancy things on-the-fly like page compression and
-page deduplication. And since the data is "gone" (copied into/out
-of the pageframe) before the cleancache get/put call returns,
-a great deal of race conditions and potential coherency issues
-are avoided. While the interface seems odd for a "real device"
-or for real kernel-addressable RAM, it makes perfect sense for
-transcendent memory.
-
-* Why is non-shared cleancache "exclusive"? And where is the
- page "invalidated" after a "get"? (Minchan Kim)
-
-The main reason is to free up space in transcendent memory and
-to avoid unnecessary cleancache_invalidate calls. If you want inclusive,
-the page can be "put" immediately following the "get". If
-put-after-get for inclusive becomes common, the interface could
-be easily extended to add a "get_no_invalidate" call.
-
-The invalidate is done by the cleancache backend implementation.
-
-* What's the performance impact?
-
-Performance analysis has been presented at OLS'09 and LCA'10.
-Briefly, performance gains can be significant on most workloads,
-especially when memory pressure is high (e.g. when RAM is
-overcommitted in a virtual workload); and because the hooks are
-invoked primarily in place of or in addition to a disk read/write,
-overhead is negligible even in worst case workloads. Basically
-cleancache replaces I/O with memory-copy-CPU-overhead; on older
-single-core systems with slow memory-copy speeds, cleancache
-has little value, but in newer multicore machines, especially
-consolidated/virtualized machines, it has great value.
-
-* How do I add cleancache support for filesystem X? (Boaz Harrash)
-
-Filesystems that are well-behaved and conform to certain
-restrictions can utilize cleancache simply by making a call to
-cleancache_init_fs at mount time. Unusual, misbehaving, or
-poorly layered filesystems must either add additional hooks
-and/or undergo extensive additional testing... or should just
-not enable the optional cleancache.
-
-Some points for a filesystem to consider:
-
- - The FS should be block-device-based (e.g. a ram-based FS such
- as tmpfs should not enable cleancache)
- - To ensure coherency/correctness, the FS must ensure that all
- file removal or truncation operations either go through VFS or
- add hooks to do the equivalent cleancache "invalidate" operations
- - To ensure coherency/correctness, either inode numbers must
- be unique across the lifetime of the on-disk file OR the
- FS must provide an "encode_fh" function.
- - The FS must call the VFS superblock alloc and deactivate routines
- or add hooks to do the equivalent cleancache calls done there.
- - To maximize performance, all pages fetched from the FS should
- go through the do_mpag_readpage routine or the FS should add
- hooks to do the equivalent (cf. btrfs)
- - Currently, the FS blocksize must be the same as PAGESIZE. This

-* Why not use the KVA of the inode as the key? (Christoph Hellwig)
-
-If cleancache would use the inode virtual address instead of
-inode/filehandle, the pool id could be eliminated. But, this
-won't work because cleancache retains pagecache data pages
-persistently even when the inode has been pruned from the
-inode unused list, and only invalidates the data page if the file
-gets removed/truncated. So if cleancache used the inode kva,
-there would be potential coherency issues if/when the inode
-kva is reused for a different file. Alternately, if cleancache
-invalidated the pages when the inode kva was freed, much of the value
-of cleancache would be lost because the cache of pages in cleanache
-is potentially much larger than the kernel pagecache and is most
-useful if the pages survive inode cache removal.
-
-* Why is a global variable required?
-
-The cleancache_enabled flag is checked in all of the frequently-used
-cleancache hooks. The alternative is a function call to check a static
-variable. Since cleancache is enabled dynamically at runtime, systems
-that don't enable cleancache would suffer thousands (possibly
-tens-of-thousands) of unnecessary function calls per second. So the
-global variable allows cleancache to be enabled by default at compile
-time, but have insignificant performance impact when cleancache remains
-disabled at runtime.
-
-* Does cleanache work with KVM?
-
-The memory model of KVM is sufficiently different that a cleancache
-backend may have less value for KVM. This remains to be tested,
-especially in an overcommitted system.
-
-* Does cleancache work in userspace? It sounds useful for
- memory hungry caches like web browsers. (Jamie Lokier)
-
-No plans yet, though we agree it sounds useful, at least for
-apps that bypass the page cache (e.g. O_DIRECT).
