I/O statistics fields
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
Since 2.4.20 (and some versions before, with patches), and 2.5.45,
|
||||
more extensive disk statistics have been introduced to help measure disk
|
||||
activity. Tools such as sar and iostat typically interpret these and do
|
||||
the work for you, but in case you are interested in creating your own
|
||||
tools, the fields are explained here.
|
||||
|
||||
In 2.4 now, the information is found as additional fields in
|
||||
/proc/partitions. In 2.6, the same information is found in two
|
||||
places: one is in the file /proc/diskstats, and the other is within
|
||||
the sysfs file system, which must be mounted in order to obtain
|
||||
the information. Throughout this document we'll assume that sysfs
|
||||
is mounted on /sys, although of course it may be mounted anywhere.
|
||||
Both /proc/diskstats and sysfs use the same source for the information
|
||||
and so should not differ.
|
||||
|
||||
Here are examples of these different formats:
|
||||
|
||||
2.4:
|
||||
3 0 39082680 hda 446216 784926 9550688 4382310 424847 312726 5922052 19310380 0 3376340 23705160
|
||||
3 1 9221278 hda1 35486 0 35496 38030 0 0 0 0 0 38030 38030
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2.6 sysfs:
|
||||
446216 784926 9550688 4382310 424847 312726 5922052 19310380 0 3376340 23705160
|
||||
35486 38030 38030 38030
|
||||
|
||||
2.6 diskstats:
|
||||
3 0 hda 446216 784926 9550688 4382310 424847 312726 5922052 19310380 0 3376340 23705160
|
||||
3 1 hda1 35486 38030 38030 38030
|
||||
|
||||
On 2.4 you might execute "grep 'hda ' /proc/partitions". On 2.6, you have
|
||||
a choice of "cat /sys/block/hda/stat" or "grep 'hda ' /proc/diskstats".
|
||||
The advantage of one over the other is that the sysfs choice works well
|
||||
if you are watching a known, small set of disks. /proc/diskstats may
|
||||
be a better choice if you are watching a large number of disks because
|
||||
you'll avoid the overhead of 50, 100, or 500 or more opens/closes with
|
||||
each snapshot of your disk statistics.
|
||||
|
||||
In 2.4, the statistics fields are those after the device name. In
|
||||
the above example, the first field of statistics would be 446216.
|
||||
By contrast, in 2.6 if you look at /sys/block/hda/stat, you'll
|
||||
find just the eleven fields, beginning with 446216. If you look at
|
||||
/proc/diskstats, the eleven fields will be preceded by the major and
|
||||
minor device numbers, and device name. Each of these formats provides
|
||||
eleven fields of statistics, each meaning exactly the same things.
|
||||
All fields except field 9 are cumulative since boot. Field 9 should
|
||||
go to zero as I/Os complete; all others only increase (unless they
|
||||
overflow and wrap). Yes, these are (32-bit or 64-bit) unsigned long
|
||||
(native word size) numbers, and on a very busy or long-lived system they
|
||||
may wrap. Applications should be prepared to deal with that; unless
|
||||
your observations are measured in large numbers of minutes or hours,
|
||||
they should not wrap twice before you notice them.
|
||||
|
||||
Each set of stats only applies to the indicated device; if you want
|
||||
system-wide stats you'll have to find all the devices and sum them all up.
|
||||
|
||||
Field 1 -- # of reads completed
|
||||
This is the total number of reads completed successfully.
|
||||
Field 2 -- # of reads merged, field 6 -- # of writes merged
|
||||
Reads and writes which are adjacent to each other may be merged for
|
||||
efficiency. Thus two 4K reads may become one 8K read before it is
|
||||
ultimately handed to the disk, and so it will be counted (and queued)
|
||||
as only one I/O. This field lets you know how often this was done.
|
||||
Field 3 -- # of sectors read
|
||||
This is the total number of sectors read successfully.
|
||||
Field 4 -- # of milliseconds spent reading
|
||||
This is the total number of milliseconds spent by all reads (as
|
||||
measured from __make_request() to end_that_request_last()).
|
||||
Field 5 -- # of writes completed
|
||||
This is the total number of writes completed successfully.
|
||||
Field 6 -- # of writes merged
|
||||
See the description of field 2.
|
||||
Field 7 -- # of sectors written
|
||||
This is the total number of sectors written successfully.
|
||||
Field 8 -- # of milliseconds spent writing
|
||||
This is the total number of milliseconds spent by all writes (as
|
||||
measured from __make_request() to end_that_request_last()).
|
||||
Field 9 -- # of I/Os currently in progress
|
||||
The only field that should go to zero. Incremented as requests are
|
||||
given to appropriate struct request_queue and decremented as they finish.
|
||||
Field 10 -- # of milliseconds spent doing I/Os
|
||||
This field increases so long as field 9 is nonzero.
|
||||
Field 11 -- weighted # of milliseconds spent doing I/Os
|
||||
This field is incremented at each I/O start, I/O completion, I/O
|
||||
merge, or read of these stats by the number of I/Os in progress
|
||||
(field 9) times the number of milliseconds spent doing I/O since the
|
||||
last update of this field. This can provide an easy measure of both
|
||||
I/O completion time and the backlog that may be accumulating.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
To avoid introducing performance bottlenecks, no locks are held while
|
||||
modifying these counters. This implies that minor inaccuracies may be
|
||||
introduced when changes collide, so (for instance) adding up all the
|
||||
read I/Os issued per partition should equal those made to the disks ...
|
||||
but due to the lack of locking it may only be very close.
|
||||
|
||||
In 2.6, there are counters for each CPU, which make the lack of locking
|
||||
almost a non-issue. When the statistics are read, the per-CPU counters
|
||||
are summed (possibly overflowing the unsigned long variable they are
|
||||
summed to) and the result given to the user. There is no convenient
|
||||
user interface for accessing the per-CPU counters themselves.
|
||||
|
||||
Disks vs Partitions
|
||||
-------------------
|
||||
|
||||
There were significant changes between 2.4 and 2.6 in the I/O subsystem.
|
||||
As a result, some statistic information disappeared. The translation from
|
||||
a disk address relative to a partition to the disk address relative to
|
||||
the host disk happens much earlier. All merges and timings now happen
|
||||
at the disk level rather than at both the disk and partition level as
|
||||
in 2.4. Consequently, you'll see a different statistics output on 2.6 for
|
||||
partitions from that for disks. There are only *four* fields available
|
||||
for partitions on 2.6 machines. This is reflected in the examples above.
|
||||
|
||||
Field 1 -- # of reads issued
|
||||
This is the total number of reads issued to this partition.
|
||||
Field 2 -- # of sectors read
|
||||
This is the total number of sectors requested to be read from this
|
||||
partition.
|
||||
Field 3 -- # of writes issued
|
||||
This is the total number of writes issued to this partition.
|
||||
Field 4 -- # of sectors written
|
||||
This is the total number of sectors requested to be written to
|
||||
this partition.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that since the address is translated to a disk-relative one, and no
|
||||
record of the partition-relative address is kept, the subsequent success
|
||||
or failure of the read cannot be attributed to the partition. In other
|
||||
words, the number of reads for partitions is counted slightly before time
|
||||
of queuing for partitions, and at completion for whole disks. This is
|
||||
a subtle distinction that is probably uninteresting for most cases.
|
||||
|
||||
More significant is the error induced by counting the numbers of
|
||||
reads/writes before merges for partitions and after for disks. Since a
|
||||
typical workload usually contains a lot of successive and adjacent requests,
|
||||
the number of reads/writes issued can be several times higher than the
|
||||
number of reads/writes completed.
|
||||
|
||||
In 2.6.25, the full statistic set is again available for partitions and
|
||||
disk and partition statistics are consistent again. Since we still don't
|
||||
keep record of the partition-relative address, an operation is attributed to
|
||||
the partition which contains the first sector of the request after the
|
||||
eventual merges. As requests can be merged across partition, this could lead
|
||||
to some (probably insignificant) inaccuracy.
|
||||
|
||||
Additional notes
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
|
||||
In 2.6, sysfs is not mounted by default. If your distribution of
|
||||
Linux hasn't added it already, here's the line you'll want to add to
|
||||
your /etc/fstab:
|
||||
|
||||
none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
In 2.6, all disk statistics were removed from /proc/stat. In 2.4, they
|
||||
appear in both /proc/partitions and /proc/stat, although the ones in
|
||||
/proc/stat take a very different format from those in /proc/partitions
|
||||
(see proc(5), if your system has it.)
