cgroup: make per-cgroup pressure stall tracking configurable
PSI accounts stalls for each cgroup separately and aggregates it at each level of the hierarchy. This causes additional overhead with psi_avgs_work being called for each cgroup in the hierarchy. psi_avgs_work has been highly optimized, however on systems with large number of cgroups the overhead becomes noticeable. Systems which use PSI only at the system level could avoid this overhead if PSI can be configured to skip per-cgroup stall accounting. Add "cgroup_disable=pressure" kernel command-line option to allow requesting system-wide only pressure stall accounting. When set, it keeps system-wide accounting under /proc/pressure/ but skips accounting for individual cgroups and does not expose PSI nodes in cgroup hierarchy.

cgroup_disable= [KNL] Disable a particular controller or optional feature
|

Format: {name of the controller(s) or feature(s) to disable}
|

The effects of cgroup_disable=foo are:
|
||||
- foo isn't auto-mounted if you mount all cgroups in
|
||||
a single hierarchy
|
||||
- foo isn't visible as an individually mountable
|
||||
subsystem
|
||||
- if foo is an optional feature then the feature is
|
||||
disabled and corresponding cgroup files are not
|
||||
created
|
||||
{Currently only "memory" controller deal with this and
|
||||
cut the overhead, others just disable the usage. So
|
||||
only cgroup_disable=memory is actually worthy}
|
||||
Specifying "pressure" disables per-cgroup pressure
