By my understanding, impliments fine grained offer fits well inside current WDRF logic, because of current allocation behavior: Foreach Slave Foreach Role Foreach Framework within the role compute agent resources of revocable case OR compute agent resources of non-revocable case <- (*A) offer the agent resources to current framework <- (*B) Each slave will grant at most one time allocation offer for the first framework within a role, if there is no revocalbe frameworks; Each slave will grant at most two times allocations offer for one non-revocable and one revocalbe framework. If we apply granuality between (*A) and (*B), it would be perfet to make loops to iterate remaining framworks, the the goal to spread agent resource between frameworks is done. > Make offer size adjustable (granularity) > > > Key: MESOS-3765 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3765 > Project: Mesos > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: allocation >Reporter: Alexander Rukletsov >Assignee: Guangya Liu > > The built-in allocator performs "coarse-grained" allocation, meaning that it > always allocates the entire remaining agent resources to a single framework. > This may heavily impact allocation fairness in some cases, for example in > presence of numerous greedy frameworks and a small number of powerful agents. > A possible solution would be to allow operators explicitly specify > granularity via allocator flags.

A role's fair share is calculated based on the number of active roles (with registered frameworks) and their weights. With 4 roles each with a weight of 1, each role's fair share of the cluster is 25% of the total cpu/mem/disk resources. If one of those roles has 5 frameworks in it, then each of those frameworks' fair share is 5% of the cluster resources. (There are no per-framework weights.) Quota would be global rather than per-node, but even with a global quota, it may be subdivided so that a framework can say "I need 5 instances of {2cpu, 4GB RAM}, although I don't care which nodes those instances come from." As such, we would use {2cpu, 4GB RAM} as the minimum per-node offer to a framework, rather than offering the entire node.

According to the description of this ticket, we consider assigning all resources of slave to framework is unfair, right? So which case is fairness by re-using the example? Two framework {{f1}} and {{f2}}, one agent with only 1 CPU: 1. 0.5 to {{f1}} and 0.5 to {{f2}} (both weight are 1: {{total * weight/ sum of weight}}) 2. 1 to {{f1}} and 0 to {{f2}} 3. or others? IMO, #1 is fair to both framework; but if {{f1}}/{{f2}} acquired 1 CPU to launch task, it need a way for allocator to adjust the fairness, so {{requestResources()}} will help. > Make offer size adjustable (granularity) > > > Key: MESOS-3765 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3765 > Project: Mesos > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: allocation >Reporter: Alexander Rukletsov > > The built-in allocator performs "coarse-grained" allocation, meaning that it > always allocates the entire remaining agent resources to a single framework. > This may heavily impact allocation fairness in some cases, for example in > presence of numerous greedy frameworks and a small number of powerful agents. > A possible solution would be to allow operators explicitly specify > granularity via allocator flags.

Let me reuse your example to demonstrate how it works right now. Two frameworks {{f1}} and {{f2}}, one agent with only 1 CPU. Possible scenarios: * {{f1}} (or {{f2}}) receives 1 CPU, but accepts 0.5 CPU, effectively returning 0.5 CPU to the free pool. {{f2}} is offered 0.5 CPU. * {{f1}} (or {{f2}}) is greedy and accepts 1 CPU, rendering {{f2}} starve. If a framework is a good citizen, it will accept only as much resources, as it needs. At the same time, if a framework is good citizen, it won't lie about its granularity. Hence I don't really see how having frameworks report their preferable offer size can help to resolve allocation unfairness (which is described in the ticket). I do not argue having frameworks' preferable offer size allows for smarter allocation decisions and more efficient bin packing algorithms, but this is out of the scope of the ticket. My intuition is that *there is no way to improve fairness by giving frameworks more tuning mechanism*. Having said that, I think tuning mechanism like {{requestResources}} can be extremely useful. Also, I think it can be difficult to deduce default granularity in presence of multiple frameworks and varying agents. > Make offer size adjustable (granularity) > > > Key: MESOS-3765 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3765 > Project: Mesos > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: allocation >Reporter: Alexander Rukletsov > > The built-in allocator performs "coarse-grained" allocation, meaning that it > always allocates the entire remaining agent resources to a single framework. > This may heavily impact allocation fairness in some cases, for example in > presence of numerous greedy frameworks and a small number of powerful agents. > A possible solution would be to allow operators explicitly specify > granularity via allocator flags.

Here's a workflow in allocator: 1. if there's no available resources to allocate, return 2. for each framework, allocate "granularity" resources in each loop, the "granularity" will be a.) "total/framework #" for each resource type (cput/mem), if no "granularity" from framework; b.) the "granularity" from framework sent by {{requestResources()}} 3. keep running #2 until no available resources. The frame work will fair-share the resource in the cluster, although greedy framework may send several "granularity" to allocator; because allocator will give only one "granularity" to framework in each loop. There is still a case that framework overcommit by "granularity" (granularity > required resources ) which we can not guarantee, because allocator did not know framework's task size. *Demonstration:* Two framework(f1 and f2), each of them will acquire 1 CPU; one slave with only 1 CPU; so the workflow will be: - each framework will receive 0.5 CPU because no "granularity" from framework, the default "granularity" is 1 CPU /2 framework. - each framework will send "granularity" by {{requestResources}} for 1 CPU, because the offer can not meet the requirement (1 vs. 0.5) - allocator will send the 1 CPU to f1 (or f2) based on its "granularity" One concern is performance downgrade, we need a perf test for it; and maybe a flag to control this behaviour.

The allocator may still allocate multiple chunks to a single framework in one allocation cycle, which will end up in a single offer.
