Traditionally ARC adaptation was limited to MRU/MFU distribution. But for years people with metadata-centric workload demanded mechanisms to also manage data/metadata distribution, that in original ZFS was just a FIFO. As result ZFS effectively got separate states for data and metadata, minimum and maximum metadata limits etc, but it all required manual tuning, was not adaptive and in its heart remained a bad FIFO. This change removes most of existing eviction logic, rewriting it from scratch. This makes MRU/MFU adaptation individual for data and meta- data, same as the distribution between data and metadata themselves. Since most of required states separation was already done, it only required to make arcs_size state field specific per data/metadata. The adaptation logic is still based on previous concept of ghost hits, just now it balances ARC capacity between 4 states: MRU data, MRU metadata, MFU data and MFU metadata. To simplify arc_c changes instead of arc_p measured in bytes, this code uses 3 variable arc_meta, arc_pd and arc_pm, representing ARC balance between metadata and data, MRU and MFU for data, and MRU and MFU for metadata respectively as 32-bit fixed point fractions. Since we care about the math result only when need to evict, this moves all the logic from arc_adapt() to arc_evict(), that reduces per-block overhead, since per-block operations are limited to stats collection, now moved from arc_adapt() to arc_access() and using cheaper wmsums. This also allows to remove ugly ARC_HDR_DO_ADAPT flag from many places. This change also removes number of metadata specific tunables, part of which were actually not functioning correctly, since not all metadata are equal and some (like L2ARC headers) are not really evictable. Instead it introduced single opaque knob zfs_arc_meta_balance, tuning ARC's reaction on ghost hits, allowing administrator give more or less preference to metadata without setting strict limits. Some of old code parts like arc_evict_meta() are just removed, because since introduction of ABD ARC they really make no sense: only headers referenced by small number of buffers are not evictable, and they are really not evictable no matter what this code do. Instead just call arc_prune_async() if too much metadata appear not evictable. Signed-off-by: Alexander Motin <[email protected]> Sponsored by: iXsystems, Inc.
