charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable After enabling CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING to monitor IRQ pressure in our container environment, we observed several noticeable behavioral changes. One of our IRQ-heavy services, such as Redis, reported a significant reduction in CPU usage after upgrading to the new kernel with CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING enabled. However, despite adding more threads to handle an increased workload, the CPU usage could not be raised. In other words, even though the container=E2=80=99s CPU usage appeared low, it= was unable to process more workloads to utilize additional CPU resources, which caused issues. This behavior can be demonstrated using netperf: function start_server() { for j in `seq 1 3`; do netserver -p $[12345+j] > /dev/null & done } server_ip=3D$1 function start_client() { # That applies to cgroup2 as well. mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct/test echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuacct/test/cgroup.procs for j in `seq 1 3`; do port=3D$[12345+j] taskset -c 0 netperf -H ${server_ip} -l ${run_time:-30000} \ -t TCP_STREAM -p $port -- -D -m 1k -M 1K -s 8k -S 8k \ > /dev/null & done } start_server start_client We can verify the CPU usage of the test cgroup using cpuacct.stat. The output shows: system: 53 user: 2 The CPU usage of the cgroup is relatively low at around 55%, but this usage doesn't increase, even with more netperf tasks. The reason is that CPU0 is at 100% utilization, as confirmed by mpstat: 02:56:22 PM CPU %usr %nice %sys %iowait %irq %soft %steal = %guest %gnice %idle 02:56:23 PM 0 0.99 0.00 55.45 0.00 0.99 42.57 0.00 = 0.00 0.00 0.00 02:56:23 PM CPU %usr %nice %sys %iowait %irq %soft %steal = %guest %gnice %idle 02:56:24 PM 0 2.00 0.00 55.00 0.00 0.00 43.00 0.00 = 0.00 0.00 0.00 It is clear that the %soft is excluded in the cgroup of the interrupted task. This behavior is unexpected. We should include IRQ time in the cgroup to reflect the pressure the group is under. After a thorough analysis, I discovered that this change in behavior is due to commit 305e6835e055 ("sched: Do not account irq time to current task"), which altered whether IRQ time should be charged to the interrupted task. While I agree that a task should not be penalized by random interrupts, the task itself cannot progress while interrupted. Therefore, the interrupted time should be reported to the user. The system metric in cpuacct.stat is crucial in indicating whether a container is under heavy system pressure, including IRQ/softirq activity. Hence, IRQ/softirq time should be included in the cpuacct system usage, which also applies to cgroup2=E2=80=99s rstat. The reason it doesn't just add the cgroup_account_*() to irqtime_account_irq() is that it might result in performance hit to hold the rq_lock in the critical path. Taking inspiration from commit ddae0ca2a8fe ("sched: Move psi_account_irqtime() out of update_rq_clock_task() hotpath"), I've now adapted the approach to handle it in a non-critical path, reducing the performance impact.
