Sometimes, application responses become bad under heavy memory load.
Applications take a bit time to reclaim memory. The statistics, how long
memory reclaim takes, will be useful to measure memory usage.
This patch adds accounting memory reclaim to per-task-delay-accounting for
accounting the time of do_try_to_free_pages().
<i.e>
- When System is under low memory load,
memory reclaim may not occur.
$ free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 8197800 1577300 6620500 0 4808 1516724
-/+ buffers/cache: 55768 8142032

Measure the time of tar command.
$ ls -s test.dat
1501472 test.dat
$ time tar cvf test.tar test.dat
real 0m13.388s
user 0m0.116s
sys 0m5.304s
$ ./delayget -d -p <pid>

- When system is under heavy memory load
memory reclaim may occur.
$ vmstat 1
procs -----------memory---------- ---swap-- -----io---- -system-- ----cpu----
r b swpd free buff cache si so bi bo in cs us sy id wa
0 0 7159032 49724 1812 3012 0 0 0 0 3 24 0 0 100 0
0 0 7159032 49724 1812 3012 0 0 0 0 4 24 0 0 100 0
0 0 7159032 49848 1812 3012 0 0 0 0 3 22 0 0 100 0
In this case, one process uses more 8G memory
by execution of malloc() and memset().
$ time tar cvf test.tar test.dat
real 1m38.563s <- increased by 85 sec
user 0m0.140s
sys 0m7.060s
$ ./delayget -d -p <pid>
CPU count real total virtual total delay total
9021 7140446250 7315277975 923201824
IO count delay total
8965 90466349669
SWAP count delay total
3 21036367
RECLAIM count delay total
740 61011951153
In the later case, the value of RECLAIM is increasing.
So, taskstats can show how much memory reclaim influences TAT.
