Some controllers (like the CPU controller) have a performance cost that is non-trivial on certain workloads. While this can be mitigated and improved to an extent, there will for some controllers always be some overheads associated with the benefits gained from the controller. Inside Facebook, the fix applied has been to disable the CPU controller forcibly with `cgroup_disable=cpu` on the kernel command line. This presents a problem: to disable or reenable the controller, a reboot is required, but this is quite cumbersome and slow to do for many thousands of machines, especially machines where disabling/enabling a stateful service on a machine is a matter of several minutes. Currently systemd provides some configuration knobs for these in the form of `[Default]CPUAccounting`, `[Default]MemoryAccounting`, and the like. The limitation of these is that Default*Accounting is overrideable by individual services, of which any one could decide to reenable a controller within the hierarchy at any point just by using a controller feature implicitly (eg. `CPUWeight`), even if the use of that CPU feature could just be opportunistic. Since many services are provided by the distribution, or by upstream teams at a particular organisation, it's not a sustainable solution to simply try to find and remove offending directives from these units. This commit presents a more direct solution -- a DisableControllers= directive that forcibly disallows a controller from being enabled within a subtree.

<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para>Unit configuration files for services, slices, scopes, sockets, mount points, and swap devices share a subset
|
||
of configuration options for resource control of spawned processes. Internally, this relies on the Linux Control
|
||
Groups (cgroups) kernel concept for organizing processes in a hierarchical tree of named groups for the purpose of
|
||
resource management.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>This man page lists the configuration options shared by
|
||
those six unit types. See

all sockets associated with it directly, but not to any sockets created by the ultimately activated services

the service via socket activation. Thus, it is usually a good idea, to replicate the IP access lists on both

the socket and the service unit, however it often makes sense to maintain one list more open and the other

one more restricted, depending on the usecase.</para>

<para>Turns on delegation of further resource control partitioning to processes of the unit. Units where this

control group will be made accessible to the relevant user. When enabled the service manager will refrain

enabled for the unit, making them available to the unit's processes for management. If false, delegation is

turned off entirely (and no additional controllers are enabled). If set to a list of controllers, delegation

the ones specified might be made available as well, depending on configuration of the containing slice unit

<para>Set the per-device overall block I/O bandwidth limit for the executed processes, if the legacy control

group hierarchy is used on the system. Takes a space-separated pair of a file path and a bandwidth value (in

the bandwidth is suffixed with K, M, G, or T, the specified bandwidth is parsed as Kilobytes, Megabytes,

Gigabytes, or Terabytes, respectively, to the base of 1000. (Example:
