In a datastore like ScyllaDB, there are many actors competing for disk I/O. Examples of such actors are data writers (in ScyllaDB’s parlance they can be either memtable or commitlog writers), and a disk reader fetching the data to serve a cache miss. To illustrate the role that competition plays, if we are just issuing disk I/O without resorting to any fairness or balancing consideration, a reader
Control Groups Introduction This is the first part of the new chapter of the linux insides book and as you may guess by part's name - this part will cover control groups or cgroups mechanism in the Linux kernel. Cgroups are special mechanism provided by the Linux kernel which allows us to allocate kind of resources like processor time, number of processes per group, amount of memory per control gr
TL;DR Do not enable net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle—it doesn’t even exist anymore since Linux 4.12. Most of the time, TIME-WAIT sockets are harmless. Otherwise, jump to the summary for the recommended solutions. The Linux kernel documentation is not very helpful about what net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle and net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse do. This lack of documentation opens the path to numerous tuning guides advising to
Memory management is the heart of operating systems; it is crucial for both programming and system administration. In the next few posts I'll cover memory with an eye towards practical aspects, but without shying away from internals. While the concepts are generic, examples are mostly from Linux and Windows on 32-bit x86. This first post describes how programs are laid out in memory. Each process
linux, art, music, anti-religious screeds, and rants. Oh yes, there will be rants. September 14, 2013 — The Life of I/O in the linux kernel Yesterday I had a need to trace the path that i/o takes through the linux kernel, starting with entering the read(2) system call going down through the block layer, through the SCSI layer, through the low level driver to the hardware, back from the hardware in
