There are simple shell scripts and oneshot systemd services to enable or disable multigenerational LRU at boot time or on the fly, and to get the current state of mg-LRU.
MGLRU Patches Merged To "mm-stable" Ahead Of Linux 6.1
Run mglru (get the current state), set_mglru N (enable/disable mg-LRU), and set_min_ttl_ms M. You can add the oneshot service to startup.
Get the current state:
$ mglru
#!/bin/sh -ev
cat /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled
0x0007
cat /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/min_ttl_ms
1000
Disable multigenerational LRU:
$ set_mglru 0
#!/bin/sh -ev
echo $1 | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled
0
Enable multigenerational LRU:
$ set_mglru 1
#!/bin/sh -ev
echo $1 | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled
1
Apply all the multigenerational LRU features:
$ set_mglru y
#!/bin/sh -ev
echo $1 | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled
y
set_mglru takes values from 0 to 7 and [yYnN] (since MGLRU v7). Most users should enable or disable all the features unless some of them have unforeseen side effects.
Set min_ttl_ms:
$ set_min_ttl_ms 2000
#!/bin/sh -v
echo $1 | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/min_ttl_ms
2000
Enable/disable multigenerational LRU during system boot:
$ sudo systemctl enable mglru.serviceBy default it sets /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled to Y and /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/min_ttl_ms to 1000.
Edit the unit file using systemctl (to change enabled and min_ttl_ms values):
$ sudo systemctl edit mglru.service --fullInstall
$ git clone https://github.com/hakavlad/mg-lru-helper.git
$ cd mg-lru-helper
$ sudo make installUninstall
$ sudo make uninstall- https://github.com/xanmod/linux (https://xanmod.org)
