  [Regression Potential]

  We are trying to optimize for total boot speed, but performing a
  micro-optimization upon time to create/unpack kernel/initrd is an
  insufficient benchmark for total boot speed. This is because it
  ignores time to load the kernel/initrd, and whether the
  firmware/bootloader were able to stream decompress it whilst loading
  it. I.e. it is argued that in the real world, subsecond decompression
  gains are irrelevant if UEFI firmware, tftp boot, etc. take a lot
  longer than that to read extra 10s of MBs of boot material.

  [TODO]
  Measure pure i/o load speed with stopwatch, to figure out MB/s speed of 
loading initrds/kernel off FAT32, EXT4, TFTP, HTTP.
  Re-evaluate if we should provide different compression mechanisms:
  - ie. gzip instead of lz4 for most cases (revert)
  - ie. xz for painful i/o cases (e.g. netboot)

  I booted grub2 and measured loading largish amount of files, ie. $
  date; initrd (hd0,gpt5)/initrd.img;  initrd (hd0,gpt5)/initrd.img;
  initrd (hd0,gpt5)/initrd.img; initrd (hd0,gpt5)/initrd.img; initrd
  (hd0,gpt5)/initrd.img; date

  To get a rough speed between 30 and 44 MB/s of loading these files off
  ext4 on nvme.

  With lz4 initrd taking 67M, and gzip initrd taking 59M, the grub i/o
  penalty is 0.18s whilst I gain over a second in faster decompression
  time. Overall a win.

  xz initrd is 36M meaning saving e.g. 0.8s of i/o time whilst gaining
  2.4s of decompression time, meaning overall worse than gzip.

Do you mean that 298.1MB is larger than what old installs will guarantee for
a /boot partition?  Which old releases in particular will be affected? 
Shouldn't this be called out in the release notes?

For reference:

$ df -h /boot
Filesystem  Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5   280M  116M  145M  45% /boot

With an Ubuntu 10.04.1 vintage install ;)

2019-10-15 Thread Dimitri John Ledkov
Sizing:

$ sudo du -sh /boot/* | grep -e grub -e 5.3.0-18
231K/boot/config-5.3.0-18-generic
8.0M/boot/grub
81M /boot/initrd.img-5.3.0-18-generic
4.5M/boot/System.map-5.3.0-18-generic
11M /boot/vmlinuz-5.3.0-18-generic

This is desktop system, amd64, with all microcodes, and linux-firmware,
and signed grub.

For three kernels that brings my system to (11+81+4.5+0.2)*3+8 = 298.1
MB

Which is still within reasonable /boot sizing and need not to be bumped.

However, there are potential disk space saving that could be made:
 * on securebooted systems /boot/grub contains 8MB of modules that cannot be 
loaded at runtime
 * config is informational only, and is not strictly needed at boot
 * System.map is not strictly needed for boot
Which could save (4.5+0.2)*3+8=22.1 MB

  https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2019-June/040726.html

  [Regression Potential]

  We are trying to optimize for total boot speed, but performing a
  micro-optimization upon time to create/unpack kernel/initrd is an
  insufficient benchmark for total boot speed. This is because it
  ignores time to load the kernel/initrd, and whether the
  firmware/bootloader were able to stream decompress it whilst loading
  it. I.e. it is argued that in the real world, subsecond decompression
  gains are irrelevant if UEFI firmware, tftp boot, etc. take a lot
  longer than that to read extra 10s of MBs of boot material.

  [TODO]
  Measure pure i/o load speed with stopwatch, to figure out MB/s speed of 
loading initrds/kernel off FAT32, EXT4, TFTP, HTTP.
  Re-evaluate if we should provide different compression mechanisms:
  - ie. gzip instead of lz4 for most cases (revert)
  - ie. xz for painful i/o cases (e.g. netboot)

  I booted grub2 and measured loading largish amount of files, ie. $
  date; initrd (hd0,gpt5)/initrd.img;  initrd (hd0,gpt5)/initrd.img;
  initrd (hd0,gpt5)/initrd.img; initrd (hd0,gpt5)/initrd.img; initrd
  (hd0,gpt5)/initrd.img; date

  To get a rough speed between 30 and 44 MB/s of loading these files off
  ext4 on nvme.

  With lz4 initrd taking 67M, and gzip initrd taking 59M, the grub i/o
  penalty is 0.18s whilst I gain over a second in faster decompression
  time. Overall a win.

  xz initrd is 36M meaning saving e.g. 0.8s of i/o time whilst gaining
  2.4s of decompression time, meaning overall worse than gzip.

Since these changes to the default initramfs compression are already
being uploaded, it's critical that there be follow-through on the
upgrader and on the sizing of /boot partitions to ensure that this is a
smooth transition for our users.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1831736] Re: [MIR] lz4 by default

2019-06-05 Thread Launchpad Bug Tracker
This bug was fixed in the package live-build - 3.0~a57-1ubuntu38

---
live-build (3.0~a57-1ubuntu38) eoan; urgency=medium

  * Stop setting LB_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION default, and instead fallback to
using initramfs-tools default. LB_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION is now only to
override whatever initramfs-tools' default compression is. This thus
makes live-build default to lz4. LP: #1831736
