[root@monitor /]# mkdir /hugepages
[root@monitor /]# mount -t  hugetlbfs  none  /hugepages [root@monitor /]# dd if=/dev/zero of=/hugepages/a.out bs=1M count=5
Hugetable page:

Hugetlbfs support is built on top of multiple page size support that is provided by most modern 
architectures
Users can use the huge page support in Linux kernel by either using the mmap system call or
standard Sysv shared memory system calls (shmget, shmat)
cat /proc/meminfo | grep HugePage
Improving TLB performance:

Kernel must usually flush TLB entries upon a context switch
Use free, contiguous physical pages
Automatically via the buddy allocator
/proc/buddyinfo
Manually via hugepages (not pageable)
Linux supports large sized pages through the hugepages mechanism
Sometimes known as bigpages, largepages or the hugetlbfs filesystem
Consequences
TLB cache hit more likely
Reduces PTE visit count
Tuning TLB performance

Check size of hugepages
x86info -a | grep “Data TLB”
dmesg
cat /proc/meminfo
Enable hugepages
1.In /etc/sysctl.conf
vm.nr_hugepages = n
2.Kernel parameter //操作系动起动时传参数
hugepages=n
Configure hugetlbfs if needed by application
mmap system call requires that hugetlbfs is mounted
mkdir /hugepages
mount -t hugetlbfs none /hugepages
shmat and shmget system calls do not require hugetlbfs
Trace every system call made by a program

Strategies for using memory
使用内存优化 1.Reduce overhead for tiny memory objects
Slab cache
cat /proc/slabinfo echo 'ext4_inode_cache 108 54 8' >/proc/slabinfo
2.Reduce or defer service time for slower subsystems
Filesystem metadata: buffer cache , slab cache //缓存文件元数据
Disk IO: page cache //缓存数据
Interprocess communications: shared memory //共享内存
Network IO: buffer cache, arp cache, connection tracking
3.Considerations when tuning memory
How should pages be reclaimed to avoid pressure?
Larger writes are usually more efficient due to re-sorting
内存参数设置:
vm.min_free_kbytes:
1.因为内存耗近,系统会崩溃
2.因此保有空闲内存剩下,当进程请求内存分配,不足会把其他内存交换到SWAP中,从而便腾去足够空间去给请求
  Tuning vm.min_free_kbytes only be necessary when an application regularly needs to allocate a large block of memory, then frees that same memory
  使用情况:
It may well be the case that
the system has too little disk bandwidth,
too little CPU power, or
too little memory to handle its load Linux 提供了这样一个参数min_free_kbytes,用来确定系统开始回收内存的阀值,控制系统的空闲内存。值越高,内核越早开始回收内存,空闲内存越高。
http://www.cnblogs.com/itfriend/archive/2011/12/14/2287160.html
Consequences
  Reduces service time for demand paging
  Memory is not available for other useage
  Can cause pressure on ZONE_NORMAL
Linux服务器内存使用量超过阈值,触发报警。

问题排查

首先,通过free命令观察系统的内存使用情况,显示如下:

total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:
-/+ buffers/cache:
Swap:
其中,可以看出内存总量为24675796KB,已使用22617644KB,只剩余2058152KB。 然后,接着通过top命令,shift + M按内存排序后,观察系统中使用内存最大的进程情况,发现只占用了18GB内存,其他进程均很小,可忽略。 因此,还有将近4GB内存(22617644KB-18GB,约4GB)用到什么地方了呢? 进一步,通过cat /proc/meminfo发现,其中有将近4GB( KB)的Slab内存: ......
Mapped: kB
Slab: kB
PageTables: kB
......
Slab是用于存放内核数据结构缓存,再通过slabtop命令查看这部分内存的使用情况: OBJS ACTIVE USE OBJ SIZE SLABS OBJ/SLAB CACHE SIZE NAME
% .21K 3494744K dentry_cache
% .09K 33404K buffer_head
% .74K 120832K ext3_inode_cache
发现其中大部分(大约3.5GB)都是用于了dentry_cache。 问题解决
drop_caches

To free pagecache:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches [include buffer cache and page cache]
To free reclaimable slab objects (includes dentries and inodes):
echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches [ 说明dentris and inodes不在 buffer cache 与 page cache中]
To free slab objects and pagecache: [全部释放]
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/sysctl/vm.txt

注意:在清空缓存之前使用sync命令同步数据到磁盘

. 方法1需要用户具有root权限,如果不是root,
但有sudo权限,可以通过sysctl命令进行设置:
$sync
$sudo sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=3 $sudo sysctl -w vm.drop_caches= #recovery drop_caches 操作后可以通过 sudo sysctl -a | grep drop_caches查看是否生效。
物理内存过量使用是以swap为基础的:    //数据库上不要用,因为被SWAP很慢
vm.overcommit_memory
= heuristic overcommit //系统自决定过量使用
= always overcommit //总是能够使用SWAP
= commit all RAM plus a percentage of swap (may be > )
= RAM+ SWAP*overcommit_ratio
[SWAP*overcommit_ratio]<实际虚拟内存SWAP
vm.overcommit_ratio: //可以超出物理内存的百分比,一般不要超过%50
Specified the percentage of physical memory allowed to be overcommited
when the vm.overcommit_memory is set to

View Committed_AS in /proc/meminfo

for the current workload on a system
Slab cache

Tiny kernel objects are stored in the slab
Extra overhead of tracking is better than using page/object
Example: filesystem metadata (dentry and inode caches )
Monitoring
/proc/slabinfo
slabtop
vmstat -m
Tuning a particular slab cache
echo “cache_name limit  batchcount shared” > /proc/slabinfo
limit  the maximum number of objects that will be cached for each CPU
   batchcount  the maximum number of global cache objects that will be transferred to the per-CPU cache when it becomes empty
   shared  the sharing behavior for Symmetric MultiProcessing (SMP) systems
arp cache

ARP entries map hardware addresses to protocol addresses
1. Cached in /proc/net/arp
By default, the cache is limited to entries as a soft limit and entries as a hard limit 超过512会自动修简
  
2. Garbage collection removes stale or older entries [root@server1 proc]# cat /proc/net/arp
IP address       HW type     Flags       HW address            Mask     Device
112.74.75.247    0x1         0x2         70:f9:6d:ee:67:af     *        eth1
10.24.223.247    0x1         0x2         70:f9:6d:ee:67:af     *        eth0 Insufficient ARP cache leads to
Intermittent timeouts between hosts
ARP thrashing
Too much ARP cache puts pressure on ZONE_NORMAL
List entries //显示缓存条目
ip neighbor list
Flush cache //清空缓存条目
ip neighbor flush dev ethX
Adjust where the gc will leave arp table alone
  net.ipv4.neigh.default.gc_thresh1
  default 128 //小于128条目不被清除 不管是否过期,不被GC清除 Soft upper limit //软限制: 超过512,超过5秒,被清除
  net.ipv4.neigh.default.gc_thresh2
  defalut
  Becomes hard limit after seconds
Hard upper limit //硬限制
  net.ipv4.neigh.default.gc_thresh3
Garbage collection frequency in seconds //每隔几秒钟执行清理 大于128,过期的条目 (5分钟过期)
  net.ipv4.neigh.default.gc_interval
vvm.lowmem_reserve_ratio
 
For some specialised workloads on highmem machines it is dangerous for the kernel to allow process memory to be allocated from the "lowmem" zone
 
Linux page allocator has a mechanism which prevents allocations  which could use highmem from using too much lowmem
 
The `lowmem_reserve_ratio' tunable determines how aggressive the kernel is in defending these lower zones
 
If you have a machine which uses highmem or ISA DMA and your applications are using mlock(), or if you are running with no swap then you probably should change the lowmem_reserve_ratio setting 
page cache:
A large percentage of paging activity is due to I/O
File reads: each page of file read from disk into memory
These pages form the page cache
Page cache is always checked for IO requests
Directory reads
Reading and writing regular files
Reading and writing via block device files, DISK IO
Accessing memory mapped files, mmap
Accessing swapped out pages
Pages in the page cache are associated with file data
Tuning page cache:

Tune length/size of memory
vm.lowmem_reserve_ratio
vm.vfs_cache_pressure
Tune arrival/completion rate
vm.page-cluster
vm.zone_reclaim_mode
vfs_cache_pressure
Controls the tendency of the kernel to reclaim the memory which is used for caching of directory and inode objects
1.At the default value of vfs_cache_pressure=
the kernel will attempt to reclaim dentries and inodes at a "fair" rate with respect to pagecache and swapcache reclaim
2.Decreasing vfs_cache_pressure causes the kernel to prefer to retain dentry and inode caches
3.When vfs_cache_pressure=, the kernel will never reclaim dentries and inodes due to memory pressure and this can easily lead to out-of-memory conditions

4.Increasing vfs_cache_pressure beyond causes the kernel to prefer to reclaim dentries and inodes 0:不回收dentries和inodes;
1-99:倾向于不回收 dentries和 inodes
100: 当 page cache 和 swap cache回收时,回收dentries和inodes
100+: 倾向于回收dentries和 inode
page-cluster
  1.page-cluster controls the number of pages which are written to swap in a single attempt
2.It is a logarithmic value - setting it to zero means "1 page", setting it to means "2 pages",
setting it to means "4 pages", etc
3.he default value is three (eight pages at a time)
4.There may be some small benefits in tuning this to a different value if your workload is swap-intensive 1.2的n次个页交换到SWAP,当系统需要大量使用SWAP时 (虚拟化,云计算环境)
zone_reclaim_mode: 
  Zone_reclaim_mode allows someone to set more or less aggressive approaches to reclaim memory
when a zone runs out of memory
If it is set to zero then no zone reclaim occurs
Allocations will be satisfied from other zones / nodes in the system
This is value ORed together of
= Zone reclaim on 回收打打
= Zone reclaim writes dirty pages out 回收写的脏页
= Zone reclaim swaps pages
Anonymous pages:
Anonymous pages can be another large consumer of data
Are not associated with a file, but instead contain:
Program data – arrays, heap allocations, etc //打开的文件再PAGECACHE中
Anonymous memory regions
Dirty memory mapped process private pages
IPC shared memory region pages
