/******************************************************************************
* Xen selfballoon driver (and optional frontswap self-shrinking driver)
*
* Copyright (c) 2009-2011, Dan Magenheimer, Oracle Corp.
*
* This code complements the cleancache and frontswap patchsets to optimize
* support for Xen Transcendent Memory ("tmem"). The policy it implements
* is rudimentary and will likely improve over time, but it does work well
* enough today.
*
* Two functionalities are implemented here which both use "control theory"
* (feedback) to optimize memory utilization. In a virtualized environment
* such as Xen, RAM is often a scarce resource and we would like to ensure
* that each of a possibly large number of virtual machines is using RAM
* efficiently, i.e. using as little as possible when under light load
* and obtaining as much as possible when memory demands are high.
* Since RAM needs vary highly dynamically and sometimes dramatically,
* "hysteresis" is used, that is, memory target is determined not just
* on current data but also on past data stored in the system.
*
* "Selfballooning" creates memory pressure by managing the Xen balloon
* driver to decrease and increase available kernel memory, driven
* largely by the target value of "Committed_AS" (see /proc/meminfo).
* Since Committed_AS does not account for clean mapped pages (i.e. pages
* in RAM that are identical to pages on disk), selfballooning has the
* affect of pushing less frequently used clean pagecache pages out of
* kernel RAM and, presumably using cleancache, into Xen tmem where
* Xen can more efficiently optimize RAM utilization for such pages.
*
* When kernel memory demand unexpectedly increases faster than Xen, via
* the selfballoon driver, is able to (or chooses to) provide usable RAM,
* the kernel may invoke swapping. In most cases, frontswap is able
* to absorb this swapping into Xen tmem. However, due to the fact
* that the kernel swap subsystem assumes swapping occurs to a disk,
* swapped pages may sit on the disk for a very long time; even if
* the kernel knows the page will never be used again. This is because
* the disk space costs very little and can be overwritten when
* necessary. When such stale pages are in frontswap, however, they
* are taking up valuable real estate. "Frontswap selfshrinking" works
* to resolve this: When frontswap activity is otherwise stable
* and the guest kernel is not under memory pressure, the "frontswap
* selfshrinking" accounts for this by providing pressure to remove some
* pages from frontswap and return them to kernel memory.
*
* For both "selfballooning" and "frontswap-selfshrinking", a worker
* thread is used and sysfs tunables are provided to adjust the frequency
* and rate of adjustments to achieve the goal, as well as to disable one
* or both functions independently.
*
* While some argue that this functionality can and should be implemented
* in userspace, it has been observed that bad things happen (e.g. OOMs).
*
* System configuration note: Selfballooning should not be enabled on
* systems without a sufficiently large swap device configured; for best
* results, it is recommended that total swap be increased by the size
* of the guest memory. Also, while technically not required to be
* configured, it is highly recommended that frontswap also be configured
* and enabled when selfballooning is running. So, selfballooning
* is disabled by default if frontswap is not configured and can only
* be enabled with the "selfballooning" kernel boot option; similarly
* selfballooning is enabled by default if frontswap is configured and
* can be disabled with the "noselfballooning" kernel boot option. Finally,
* when frontswap is configured, frontswap-selfshrinking can be disabled
* with the "noselfshrink" kernel boot option.
*
* Selfballooning is disallowed in domain0 and force-disabled.
