At the tail stage of throttle, VM is very sensitive to
CPU percentage. We just throttle 30% of remaining CPU
when throttle is more than 80 percentage.
This doesn't conflict with cpu_throttle_increment.
This may make migration time longer, and is disabled
by default.

This is a bit unusual; all of the rest of the throttling has no
fixed constants; all values are set by parameters.
You've got the two, the '80' and the '0.3'
I thinkt he easy solution is to replace your parameter 'tailslow' by two
new parameters; 'tailstart' and 'tailrate'; both defaulting to 100%.
Then you make it:
if (cpu_throttle_now >= pct_tailstart) {
/* Eat some scale of CPU from remaining */
cpu_throttle_inc = ceil((100 - cpu_throttle_now) * pct_tailrate);
(with percentage scaling added).
Then setting 'tailstart' to 80 and 'tailrate' to 30 is equivalent to
what you have, but means we have no magical constants in the code.

Yes, this is a good suggestion. Though this patch is not the final idea,
I will apply it when throttle approach is decided.

Why? If we really think that this is better that current approarch, just do this _always_. And throothre 30% of remaining CPU. So we go: 30% 30% + 0.3(70%) ... Or anything else. My experience is: - you really need to go to very high throothle to make migration happens (more than 70% or so usually). - The way that we throotle is not completely exact. > This doesn't conflict with cpu_throttle_increment. > > This may make migration time longer, and is disabled > by default. What do you think? I think that it is better to change method and improve documentation that yet adding another parameter. Later, Juan.

My original idea is that if we throttle a fixed percentage of CPU every time,
then the VM is more and more sensitive to performance decrease.
For example, if the initial throttle is 10% and we throttle 10% every time. At the
beginning, the performance changes from 100% to 90%, which makes little effect on VM.
However, if the dirty rate is very high and it is not enough even throttle 80%, then
the performance changes from 20% to 10%, which half the performance and makes heavy
effect on VM.
In the example above, if throttle 85% is enough, then throttle 90% makes unnecessary
performance loss on VM. So this is the reason for slowdown throttling when we are about
to reach the best throttle.

This should not be a new approach, instead it is an optional enhancement to
current approach. However, after my deeper thinking, the way that throttle
30% of remaining CPU is unusual and not suitable. We should use another way
to slowdown the tail stage.
When dirty bytes is is 50% more than the approx. bytes xfer, we start or increase
throttling. My idea is that we can calculate the throttle increment expected.
When dirty rate is about to reach the 50% of bandwidth, the throttle increment
expected will smaller than "cpu_throttle_increment" at tail stage.
Maybe the core code likes this:
