[ Upstream commit 3b3376f222e3ab58367d9dd405cafd09d5e37b7c ]
Apart from subsystem specific .proc_handler handler, all ctl_tables with
extra1 and extra2 members set should use proc_dointvec_minmax instead of
proc_dointvec, or the limit set in extra* never work and potentially echo
underflow values(negative numbers) is likely make system unstable.
Especially vfs_cache_pressure and zone_reclaim_mode, -1 is apparently not
a valid value, but we can set to them. And then kernel may crash.
# echo -1 > /proc/sys/vm/vfs_cache_pressure

In the virtualization scenario, you can use pvipi to optimize the sending of
IPI interrupts and reduce the number of vmexit.
rps_using_pvipi test
Test guest: 32 core, 64G memory, virtio-net 8 queues, rss interrupt is bound
to 24-31 core. Observe the number of vmexit of 31 cores.
1. 1000000pps
100 iperf instances, 10000pps per instance.
disable rps_using_pvipi 68077 vmexit/s
enable rps_using_pvipi 21138 vmexit/s
2. 2000000pps
1000 iperf instances, 2000pps per instance.
disable rps_using_pvipi 40879 vmexit/s
enable rps_using_pvipi 9195 vmexit/s
3. 2000000pps
2000 iperf instances, 1000pps per instance.
disable rps_using_pvipi 24746 vmexit/s
enable rps_using_pvipi 7292 vmexit/s
Enabling rps_using_pvipi can greatly reduce the number of vmexit.
