linux 清内存-优快云博客

本文介绍了如何在Linux系统中使用sync指令和调整/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches值来安全地清除不同类型的内存缓存，包括页缓存、目录入口缓存和inode缓存。通过这些操作可以有效释放系统资源。

注意：首先我们需要使用sync指令，将所有未写的系统缓冲区写到磁盘中，包含已修改的 i-node、已延迟的块 I/O 和读写映射文件。否则在释放缓存的过程中，可能会丢失未保存的文件。

的值可以为0~3之间的任意数字，代表着不同的含义：

0 – 不释放

1 – 释放页缓存

2 – 释放dentries和inodes

3 – 释放所有缓存

[root@ok Desktop]# cat /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches 
0
[root@ok Desktop]# file /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches 
/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches: empty
[root@ok Desktop]# echo 1 >/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches 
[root@ok Desktop]# free -h
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:           11G       966M        10G        53M       392K       161M
-/+ buffers/cache:       804M        10G 
Swap:         3.6G         0B       3.6G

查看内存条个数:

[root@ok Desktop]# dmidecode | grep -A16 "Memory Device$"

清除pagecache:

[root@ok ~]# sync
[root@ok ~]# sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=1
vm.drop_caches = 1
[root@ok ~]# free -h
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:           11G       1.1G        10G        82M       412K       192M
-/+ buffers/cache:       980M        10G 
Swap:         3.6G         0B       3.6G

清空 dentries 和 inodes：

[root@ok ~]# sync
[root@ok ~]# sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=2
vm.drop_caches = 2
[root@ok ~]# free -h
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:           11G       1.2G        10G        79M       5.7M       224M
-/+ buffers/cache:       959M        10G 
Swap:         3.6G         0B       3.6G

清空所有缓存　pagecache、dentries 和 inodes）：

[root@ok ~]# sync 
[root@ok ~]# sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=3
vm.drop_caches = 3
[root@ok ~]# free -h
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:           11G       1.1G        10G       101M       1.5M       210M
-/+ buffers/cache:       956M        10G 
Swap:         3.6G         0B       3.6G
