After v4.3's commit 0610c25daa ("memcg: fix dirty page migration")
mem_cgroup_migrate() doesn't have much to offer in page migration: convert
migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() to set_page_memcg() instead.
Then rename mem_cgroup_migrate() to mem_cgroup_replace_page(), since its
remaining callers are replace_page_cache_page() and shmem_replace_page():
both of whom passed lrucare true, so just eliminate that argument.

Before the previous patch ("memcg: unify slab and other kmem pages
charging"), __mem_cgroup_from_kmem had to handle two types of kmem - slab
pages and pages allocated with alloc_kmem_pages - memcg in the page
struct. Now we can unify it. Since after it, this function becomes tiny
we can fold it into mem_cgroup_from_kmem.

We have memcg_kmem_charge and memcg_kmem_uncharge methods for charging and
uncharging kmem pages to memcg, but currently they are not used for
charging slab pages (i.e. they are only used for charging pages allocated
with alloc_kmem_pages). The only reason why the slab subsystem uses
special helpers, memcg_charge_slab and memcg_uncharge_slab, is that it
needs to charge to the memcg of kmem cache while memcg_charge_kmem charges
to the memcg that the current task belongs to.
To remove this diversity, this patch adds an extra argument to
__memcg_kmem_charge that can be a pointer to a memcg or NULL. If it is
not NULL, the function tries to charge to the memcg it points to,
otherwise it charge to the current context. Next, it makes the slab
subsystem use this function to charge slab pages.
Since memcg_charge_kmem and memcg_uncharge_kmem helpers are now used only
in __memcg_kmem_charge and __memcg_kmem_uncharge, they are inlined. Since
__memcg_kmem_charge stores a pointer to the memcg in the page struct, we
don't need memcg_uncharge_slab anymore and can use free_kmem_pages.
Besides, one can now detect which memcg a slab page belongs to by reading
/proc/kpagecgroup.
Note, this patch switches slab to charge-after-alloc design. Since this
design is already used for all other memcg charges, it should not make any
difference.

Charging kmem pages proceeds in two steps. First, we try to charge the
allocation size to the memcg the current task belongs to, then we allocate
a page and "commit" the charge storing the pointer to the memcg in the
page struct.
Such a design looks overcomplicated, because there is not much sense in
trying charging the allocation before actually allocating a page: we won't
be able to consume much memory over the limit even if we charge after
doing the actual allocation, besides we already charge user pages post
factum, so being pedantic with kmem pages just looks pointless.
So this patch simplifies the design by merging the "charge" and the
"commit" steps into the same function, which takes the allocated page.
Also, rename the charge and uncharge methods to memcg_kmem_charge and
memcg_kmem_uncharge and make the charge method return error code instead
of bool to conform to mem_cgroup_try_charge.

__memcg_kmem_bypass() decides whether a kmem allocation should be bypassed
to the root memcg. Some conditions that it tests are valid criteria
regarding who should be held accountable; however, there are a couple
unnecessary tests for cold paths - __GFP_FAIL and fatal_signal_pending().
The previous patch updated try_charge() to handle both __GFP_FAIL and
dying tasks correctly and the only thing these two tests are doing is
making accounting less accurate and sprinkling tests for cold path
conditions in the hot paths. There's nothing meaningful gained by these
extra tests.
This patch removes the two unnecessary tests from __memcg_kmem_bypass().

Currently, try_charge() tries to reclaim memory synchronously when the
high limit is breached; however, if the allocation doesn't have
__GFP_WAIT, synchronous reclaim is skipped. If a process performs only
speculative allocations, it can blow way past the high limit. This is
actually easily reproducible by simply doing "find /". slab/slub
allocator tries speculative allocations first, so as long as there's
memory which can be consumed without blocking, it can keep allocating
memory regardless of the high limit.
This patch makes try_charge() always punt the over-high reclaim to the
return-to-userland path. If try_charge() detects that high limit is
breached, it adds the overage to current->memcg_nr_pages_over_high and
schedules execution of mem_cgroup_handle_over_high() which performs
synchronous reclaim from the return-to-userland path.
As long as kernel doesn't have a run-away allocation spree, this should
provide enough protection while making kmemcg behave more consistently.
It also has the following benefits.
- All over-high reclaims can use GFP_KERNEL regardless of the specific
gfp mask in use, e.g. GFP_NOFS, when the limit was breached.
- It copes with prio inversion. Previously, a low-prio task with
small memory.high might perform over-high reclaim with a bunch of
locks held. If a higher prio task needed any of these locks, it
would have to wait until the low prio task finished reclaim and
released the locks. By handing over-high reclaim to the task exit
path this issue can be avoided.

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
"The cgroup core saw several significant updates this cycle:
- percpu_rwsem for threadgroup locking is reinstated. This was
temporarily dropped due to down_write latency issues. Oleg's
rework of percpu_rwsem which is scheduled to be merged in this
merge window resolves the issue.
- On the v2 hierarchy, when controllers are enabled and disabled, all
operations are atomic and can fail and revert cleanly. This allows
->can_attach() failure which is necessary for cpu RT slices.
- Tasks now stay associated with the original cgroups after exit
until released. This allows tracking resources held by zombies
(e.g. pids) and makes it easy to find out where zombies came from
on the v2 hierarchy. The pids controller was broken before these
changes as zombies escaped the limits; unfortunately, updating this
behavior required too many invasive changes and I don't think it's
a good idea to backport them, so the pids controller on 4.3, the
first version which included the pids controller, will stay broken
at least until I'm sure about the cgroup core changes.

For memcg domains, the amount of available memory was calculated as
min(the amount currently in use + headroom according to memcg,
total clean memory)
This isn't quite correct as what should be capped by the amount of
clean memory is the headroom, not the sum of memory in use and
headroom. For example, if a memcg domain has a significant amount of
dirty memory, the above can lead to a value which is lower than the
current amount in use which doesn't make much sense. In most
circumstances, the above leads to a number which is somewhat but not
drastically lower.
As the amount of memory which can be readily allocated to the memcg
domain is capped by the amount of system-wide clean memory which is
not already assigned to the memcg itself, the number we want is
the amount currently in use +
min(headroom according to memcg, clean memory elsewhere in the system)
This patch updates mem_cgroup_wb_stats() to return the number of
filepages and headroom instead of the calculated available pages.
mdtc_cap_avail() is renamed to mdtc_calc_avail() and performs the
above calculation from file, headroom, dirty and globally clean pages.

This patchset introduces a new user API for tracking user memory pages
that have not been used for a given period of time. The purpose of this
is to provide the userspace with the means of tracking a workload's
working set, i.e. the set of pages that are actively used by the
workload. Knowing the working set size can be useful for partitioning the
system more efficiently, e.g. by tuning memory cgroup limits
appropriately, or for job placement within a compute cluster.
==== USE CASES ====
The unified cgroup hierarchy has memory.low and memory.high knobs, which
are defined as the low and high boundaries for the workload working set
size. However, the working set size of a workload may be unknown or
change in time. With this patch set, one can periodically estimate the
amount of memory unused by each cgroup and tune their memory.low and
memory.high parameters accordingly, therefore optimizing the overall
memory utilization.
Another use case is balancing workloads within a compute cluster. Knowing
how much memory is not really used by a workload unit may help take a more
optimal decision when considering migrating the unit to another node
within the cluster.
Also, as noted by Minchan, this would be useful for per-process reclaim
(https://lwn.net/Articles/545668/). With idle tracking, we could reclaim idle
pages only by smart user memory manager.
==== USER API ====
The user API consists of two new files:
* /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap. This file implements a bitmap where each
bit corresponds to a page, indexed by PFN. When the bit is set, the
corresponding page is idle. A page is considered idle if it has not been
accessed since it was marked idle. To mark a page idle one should set the
bit corresponding to the page by writing to the file. A value written to the
file is OR-ed with the current bitmap value. Only user memory pages can be
marked idle, for other page types input is silently ignored. Writing to this
file beyond max PFN results in the ENXIO error. Only available when
CONFIG_IDLE_PAGE_TRACKING is set.
This file can be used to estimate the amount of pages that are not
used by a particular workload as follows:
1. mark all pages of interest idle by setting corresponding bits in the
/sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap
2. wait until the workload accesses its working set
3. read /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap and count the number of bits set
* /proc/kpagecgroup. This file contains a 64-bit inode number of the
memory cgroup each page is charged to, indexed by PFN. Only available when
CONFIG_MEMCG is set.
This file can be used to find all pages (including unmapped file pages)
accounted to a particular cgroup. Using /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap, one
can then estimate the cgroup working set size.
For an example of using these files for estimating the amount of unused
memory pages per each memory cgroup, please see the script attached
below.
==== REASONING ====
The reason to introduce the new user API instead of using
/proc/PID/{clear_refs,smaps} is that the latter has two serious
drawbacks:
- it does not count unmapped file pages
- it affects the reclaimer logic
The new API attempts to overcome them both. For more details on how it
is achieved, please see the comment to patch 6.
==== PATCHSET STRUCTURE ====
The patch set is organized as follows:
- patch 1 adds page_cgroup_ino() helper for the sake of
/proc/kpagecgroup and patches 2-3 do related cleanup
- patch 4 adds /proc/kpagecgroup, which reports cgroup ino each page is
charged to
- patch 5 introduces a new mmu notifier callback, clear_young, which is
a lightweight version of clear_flush_young; it is used in patch 6
- patch 6 implements the idle page tracking feature, including the
userspace API, /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap
- patch 7 exports idle flag via /proc/kpageflags
==== SIMILAR WORKS ====
Originally, the patch for tracking idle memory was proposed back in 2011
by Michel Lespinasse (see http://lwn.net/Articles/459269/). The main
difference between Michel's patch and this one is that Michel implemented
a kernel space daemon for estimating idle memory size per cgroup while
this patch only provides the userspace with the minimal API for doing the
job, leaving the rest up to the userspace. However, they both share the
same idea of Idle/Young page flags to avoid affecting the reclaimer logic.
==== PERFORMANCE EVALUATION ====
SPECjvm2008 (https://www.spec.org/jvm2008/) was used to evaluate the
performance impact introduced by this patch set. Three runs were carried
out:
- base: kernel without the patch
- patched: patched kernel, the feature is not used
- patched-active: patched kernel, 1 minute-period daemon is used for
tracking idle memory
For tracking idle memory, idlememstat utility was used:

The only user is cgwb_bdi_init and that one depends on
CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK which in turn depends on CONFIG_MEMCG so it
doesn't make much sense to definte an empty stub for !CONFIG_MEMCG.
Moreover ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) is ugly and would lead to runtime crashes if
used in unguarded code paths. Better fail during compilation.

mem_cgroup structure is defined in mm/memcontrol.c currently which means
that the code outside of this file has to use external API even for
trivial access stuff.
This patch exports mm_struct with its dependencies and makes some of the
exported functions inlines. This even helps to reduce the code size a bit
(make defconfig + CONFIG_MEMCG=y)

Pull cgroup writeback support from Jens Axboe:
"This is the big pull request for adding cgroup writeback support.
This code has been in development for a long time, and it has been
simmering in for-next for a good chunk of this cycle too. This is one
of those problems that has been talked about for at least half a
decade, finally there's a solution and code to go with it.

writeback: reset wb_domain->dirty_limit[_tstmp] when memcg domain size changes
writeback: implement memcg wb_domain
writeback: update wb_over_bg_thresh() to use wb_domain aware operations
...
While cgroup writeback support now connects memcg and blkcg so that
writeback IOs are properly attributed and controlled, the IO back
pressure propagation mechanism implemented in balance_dirty_pages()
and its subroutines wasn't aware of cgroup writeback.
Processes belonging to a memcg may have access to only subset of total
memory available in the system and not factoring this into dirty
throttling rendered it completely ineffective for processes under
memcg limits and memcg ended up building a separate ad-hoc degenerate
mechanism directly into vmscan code to limit page dirtying.
The previous patches updated balance_dirty_pages() and its subroutines
so that they can deal with multiple wb_domain's (writeback domains)
and defined per-memcg wb_domain. Processes belonging to a non-root
memcg are bound to two wb_domains, global wb_domain and memcg
wb_domain, and should be throttled according to IO pressures from both
domains. This patch updates dirty throttling code so that it repeats
similar calculations for the two domains - the differences between the
two are few and minor - and applies the lower of the two sets of
resulting constraints.
wb_over_bg_thresh(), which controls when background writeback
terminates, is also updated to consider both global and memcg
wb_domains. It returns true if dirty is over bg_thresh for either
domain.
This makes the dirty throttling mechanism operational for memcg
domains including writeback-bandwidth-proportional dirty page
distribution inside them but the ad-hoc memcg throttling mechanism in
vmscan is still in place. The next patch will rip it out.

Dirtyable memory is distributed to a wb (bdi_writeback) according to
the relative bandwidth the wb is writing out in the whole system.
This distribution is global - each wb is measured against all other
wb's and gets the proportinately sized portion of the memory in the
whole system.
For cgroup writeback, the amount of dirtyable memory is scoped by
memcg and thus each wb would need to be measured and controlled in its
memcg. IOW, a wb will belong to two writeback domains - the global
and memcg domains.
The previous patches laid the groundwork to support the two wb_domains
and this patch implements memcg wb_domain. memcg->cgwb_domain is
initialized on css online and destroyed on css release,
wb->memcg_completions is added, and __wb_writeout_inc() is updated to
increment completions against both global and memcg wb_domains.
The following patches will update balance_dirty_pages() and its
subroutines to actually consider memcg wb_domain for throttling.

For the planned cgroup writeback support, on each bdi
(backing_dev_info), each memcg will be served by a separate wb
(bdi_writeback). This patch updates bdi so that a bdi can host
multiple wbs (bdi_writebacks).
On the default hierarchy, blkcg implicitly enables memcg. This allows
using memcg's page ownership for attributing writeback IOs, and every
memcg - blkcg combination can be served by its own wb by assigning a
dedicated wb to each memcg. This means that there may be multiple
wb's of a bdi mapped to the same blkcg. As congested state is per
blkcg - bdi combination, those wb's should share the same congested
state. This is achieved by tracking congested state via
bdi_writeback_congested structs which are keyed by blkcg.
bdi->wb remains unchanged and will keep serving the root cgroup.
cgwb's (cgroup wb's) for non-root cgroups are created on-demand or
looked up while dirtying an inode according to the memcg of the page
being dirtied or current task. Each cgwb is indexed on bdi->cgwb_tree
by its memcg id. Once an inode is associated with its wb, it can be
retrieved using inode_to_wb().
Currently, none of the filesystems has FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK and all
pages will keep being associated with bdi->wb.
v3: inode_attach_wb() in account_page_dirtied() moved inside
mapping_cap_account_dirty() block where it's known to be !NULL.
Also, an unnecessary NULL check before kfree() removed. Both
detected by the kbuild bot.
v2: Updated so that wb association is per inode and wb is per memcg
rather than blkcg.

Implement mem_cgroup_css_from_page() which returns the
cgroup_subsys_state of the memcg associated with a given page on the
default hierarchy. This will be used by cgroup writeback support.
This function assumes that page->mem_cgroup association doesn't change
until the page is released, which is true on the default hierarchy as
long as replace_page_cache_page() is not used. As the only user of
replace_page_cache_page() is FUSE which won't support cgroup writeback
for the time being, this works for now, and replace_page_cache_page()
will soon be updated so that the invariant actually holds.
Note that the RCU protected page->mem_cgroup access is consistent with
other usages across memcg but ultimately incorrect. These unlocked
accesses are missing required barriers. page->mem_cgroup should be
made an RCU pointer and updated and accessed using RCU operations.
v4: Instead of triggering WARN, return the root css on the traditional
hierarchies. This makes the function a lot easier to deal with
especially as there's no light way to synchronize against
hierarchy rebinding.
v3: s/mem_cgroup_migrate()/mem_cgroup_css_from_page()/

hierarchies and add comment about the assumed invariant.

When modifying PG_Dirty on cached file pages, update the new
MEM_CGROUP_STAT_DIRTY counter. This is done in the same places where
global NR_FILE_DIRTY is managed. The new memcg stat is visible in the
per memcg memory.stat cgroupfs file. The most recent past attempt at
this was http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cgroups/8632
The new accounting supports future efforts to add per cgroup dirty
page throttling and writeback. It also helps an administrator break
down a container's memory usage and provides evidence to understand
memcg oom kills (the new dirty count is included in memcg oom kill
messages).
The ability to move page accounting between memcg
(memory.move_charge_at_immigrate) makes this accounting more
complicated than the global counter. The existing
mem_cgroup_{begin,end}_page_stat() lock is used to serialize move
accounting with stat updates.
Typical update operation:
memcg = mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat(page)
if (TestSetPageDirty()) {
[...]
mem_cgroup_update_page_stat(memcg)
}
mem_cgroup_end_page_stat(memcg)
Summary of mem_cgroup_end_page_stat() overhead:
- Without CONFIG_MEMCG it's a no-op
- With CONFIG_MEMCG and no inter memcg task movement, it's just
rcu_read_lock()
- With CONFIG_MEMCG and inter memcg task movement, it's
rcu_read_lock() + spin_lock_irqsave()
A memcg parameter is added to several routines because their callers
now grab mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() which returns the memcg later
needed by for mem_cgroup_update_page_stat().
Because mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() may disable interrupts, some
adjustments are needed:
- move __mark_inode_dirty() from __set_page_dirty() to its caller.
__mark_inode_dirty() locking does not want interrupts disabled.
- use spin_lock_irqsave(tree_lock) rather than spin_lock_irq() in
__delete_from_page_cache(), replace_page_cache_page(),
invalidate_complete_page2(), and __remove_mapping().

Not all kmem allocations should be accounted to memcg. The following
patch gives an example when accounting of a certain type of allocations to
memcg can effectively result in a memory leak. This patch adds the
__GFP_NOACCOUNT flag which if passed to kmalloc and friends will force the
allocation to go through the root cgroup. It will be used by the next
patch.
Note, since in case of kmemleak enabled each kmalloc implies yet another
allocation from the kmemleak_object cache, we add __GFP_NOACCOUNT to
gfp_kmemleak_mask.
Alternatively, we could introduce a per kmem cache flag disabling
accounting for all allocations of a particular kind, but (a) we would not
be able to bypass accounting for kmalloc then and (b) a kmem cache with
this flag set could not be merged with a kmem cache without this flag,
which would increase the number of global caches and therefore
fragmentation even if the memory cgroup controller is not used.
Despite its generic name, currently __GFP_NOACCOUNT disables accounting
only for kmem allocations while user page allocations are always charged.
To catch abusing of this flag, a warning is issued on an attempt of
passing it to mem_cgroup_try_charge.

There are several FS shrinkers, including super_block::s_shrink, that
keep reclaimable objects in the list_lru structure. Hence to turn them
to memcg-aware shrinkers, it is enough to make list_lru per-memcg.
This patch does the trick. It adds an array of lru lists to the
list_lru_node structure (per-node part of the list_lru), one for each
kmem-active memcg, and dispatches every item addition or removal to the
list corresponding to the memcg which the item is accounted to. So now
the list_lru structure is not just per node, but per node and per memcg.
Not all list_lrus need this feature, so this patch also adds a new
method, list_lru_init_memcg, which initializes a list_lru as memcg
aware. Otherwise (i.e. if initialized with old list_lru_init), the
list_lru won't have per memcg lists.
Just like per memcg caches arrays, the arrays of per-memcg lists are
indexed by memcg_cache_id, so we must grow them whenever
memcg_nr_cache_ids is increased. So we introduce a callback,
memcg_update_all_list_lrus, invoked by memcg_alloc_cache_id if the id
space is full.
The locking is implemented in a manner similar to lruvecs, i.e. we have
one lock per node that protects all lists (both global and per cgroup) on
the node.

We need a stable value of memcg_nr_cache_ids in kmem_cache_create()
(memcg_alloc_cache_params() wants it for root caches), where we only
hold the slab_mutex and no memcg-related locks. As a result, we have to
update memcg_nr_cache_ids under the slab_mutex, which we can only take
on the slab's side (see memcg_update_array_size). This looks awkward
and will become even worse when per-memcg list_lru is introduced, which
also wants stable access to memcg_nr_cache_ids.
To get rid of this dependency between the memcg_nr_cache_ids and the
slab_mutex, this patch introduces a special rwsem. The rwsem is held
for writing during memcg_caches arrays relocation and memcg_nr_cache_ids
updates. Therefore one can take it for reading to get a stable access
to memcg_caches arrays and/or memcg_nr_cache_ids.
Currently the semaphore is taken for reading only from
kmem_cache_create, right before taking the slab_mutex, so right now
there's no much point in using rwsem instead of mutex. However, once
list_lru is made per-memcg it will allow list_lru initializations to
proceed concurrently.

Introduce the basic control files to account, partition, and limit
memory using cgroups in default hierarchy mode.
This interface versioning allows us to address fundamental design
issues in the existing memory cgroup interface, further explained
below. The old interface will be maintained indefinitely, but a
clearer model and improved workload performance should encourage
existing users to switch over to the new one eventually.
The control files are thus:
- memory.current shows the current consumption of the cgroup and its
descendants, in bytes.
- memory.low configures the lower end of the cgroup's expected
memory consumption range. The kernel considers memory below that
boundary to be a reserve - the minimum that the workload needs in
order to make forward progress - and generally avoids reclaiming
it, unless there is an imminent risk of entering an OOM situation.
- memory.high configures the upper end of the cgroup's expected
memory consumption range. A cgroup whose consumption grows beyond
this threshold is forced into direct reclaim, to work off the
excess and to throttle new allocations heavily, but is generally
allowed to continue and the OOM killer is not invoked.
- memory.max configures the hard maximum amount of memory that the
cgroup is allowed to consume before the OOM killer is invoked.
- memory.events shows event counters that indicate how often the
cgroup was reclaimed while below memory.low, how often it was
forced to reclaim excess beyond memory.high, how often it hit
memory.max, and how often it entered OOM due to memory.max. This
allows users to identify configuration problems when observing a
degradation in workload performance. An overcommitted system will
have an increased rate of low boundary breaches, whereas increased
rates of high limit breaches, maximum hits, or even OOM situations
will indicate internally overcommitted cgroups.
For existing users of memory cgroups, the following deviations from
the current interface are worth pointing out and explaining:
- The original lower boundary, the soft limit, is defined as a limit
that is per default unset. As a result, the set of cgroups that
global reclaim prefers is opt-in, rather than opt-out. The costs
for optimizing these mostly negative lookups are so high that the
implementation, despite its enormous size, does not even provide
the basic desirable behavior. First off, the soft limit has no
hierarchical meaning. All configured groups are organized in a
global rbtree and treated like equal peers, regardless where they
are located in the hierarchy. This makes subtree delegation
impossible. Second, the soft limit reclaim pass is so aggressive
that it not just introduces high allocation latencies into the
system, but also impacts system performance due to overreclaim, to
the point where the feature becomes self-defeating.
The memory.low boundary on the other hand is a top-down allocated
reserve. A cgroup enjoys reclaim protection when it and all its
ancestors are below their low boundaries, which makes delegation
of subtrees possible. Secondly, new cgroups have no reserve per
default and in the common case most cgroups are eligible for the
preferred reclaim pass. This allows the new low boundary to be
efficiently implemented with just a minor addition to the generic
reclaim code, without the need for out-of-band data structures and
reclaim passes. Because the generic reclaim code considers all
cgroups except for the ones running low in the preferred first
reclaim pass, overreclaim of individual groups is eliminated as
well, resulting in much better overall workload performance.
- The original high boundary, the hard limit, is defined as a strict
limit that can not budge, even if the OOM killer has to be called.
But this generally goes against the goal of making the most out of
the available memory. The memory consumption of workloads varies
during runtime, and that requires users to overcommit. But doing
that with a strict upper limit requires either a fairly accurate
prediction of the working set size or adding slack to the limit.
Since working set size estimation is hard and error prone, and
getting it wrong results in OOM kills, most users tend to err on
the side of a looser limit and end up wasting precious resources.
The memory.high boundary on the other hand can be set much more
conservatively. When hit, it throttles allocations by forcing
them into direct reclaim to work off the excess, but it never
invokes the OOM killer. As a result, a high boundary that is
chosen too aggressively will not terminate the processes, but
instead it will lead to gradual performance degradation. The user
can monitor this and make corrections until the minimal memory
footprint that still gives acceptable performance is found.
In extreme cases, with many concurrent allocations and a complete
breakdown of reclaim progress within the group, the high boundary
can be exceeded. But even then it's mostly better to satisfy the
allocation from the slack available in other groups or the rest of
the system than killing the group. Otherwise, memory.max is there
to limit this type of spillover and ultimately contain buggy or
even malicious applications.
- The original control file names are unwieldy and inconsistent in
many different ways. For example, the upper boundary hit count is
exported in the memory.failcnt file, but an OOM event count has to
be manually counted by listening to memory.oom_control events, and
lower boundary / soft limit events have to be counted by first
setting a threshold for that value and then counting those events.
Also, usage and limit files encode their units in the filename.
That makes the filenames very long, even though this is not
information that a user needs to be reminded of every time they
type out those names.
To address these naming issues, as well as to signal clearly that
the new interface carries a new configuration model, the naming
conventions in it necessarily differ from the old interface.
- The original limit files indicate the state of an unset limit with
a very high number, and a configured limit can be unset by echoing
-1 into those files. But that very high number is implementation
and architecture dependent and not very descriptive. And while -1
can be understood as an underflow into the highest possible value,
-2 or -10M etc. do not work, so it's not inconsistent.
memory.low, memory.high, and memory.max will use the string
"infinity" to indicate and set the highest possible value.

Since commit b2052564e6 ("mm: memcontrol: continue cache reclaim from
offlined groups") pages charged to a memory cgroup are not reparented when
the cgroup is removed. Instead, they are supposed to be reclaimed in a
regular way, along with pages accounted to online memory cgroups.
However, an lruvec of an offline memory cgroup will sooner or later get so
small that it will be scanned only at low scan priorities (see
get_scan_count()). Therefore, if there are enough reclaimable pages in
big lruvecs, pages accounted to offline memory cgroups will never be
scanned at all, wasting memory.
Fix this by unconditionally forcing scanning dead lruvecs from kswapd.

mem_cgroup->memcg_slab_caches is a list of kmem caches corresponding to
the given cgroup. Currently, it is only used on css free in order to
destroy all caches corresponding to the memory cgroup being freed. The
list is protected by memcg_slab_mutex. The mutex is also used to protect
kmem_cache->memcg_params->memcg_caches arrays and synchronizes
kmem_cache_destroy vs memcg_unregister_all_caches.
However, we can perfectly get on without these two. To destroy all caches
corresponding to a memory cgroup, we can walk over the global list of kmem
caches, slab_caches, and we can do all the synchronization stuff using the
slab_mutex instead of the memcg_slab_mutex. This patch therefore gets rid
of the memcg_slab_caches and memcg_slab_mutex.
Apart from this nice cleanup, it also:
- assures that rcu_barrier() is called once at max when a root cache is
destroyed or a memory cgroup is freed, no matter how many caches have
SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU flag set;
- fixes the race between kmem_cache_destroy and kmem_cache_create that
exists, because memcg_cleanup_cache_params, which is called from
kmem_cache_destroy after checking that kmem_cache->refcount=0,
releases the slab_mutex, which gives kmem_cache_create a chance to
make an alias to a cache doomed to be destroyed.

Suppose task @t that belongs to a memory cgroup @memcg is going to
allocate an object from a kmem cache @c. The copy of @c corresponding to
@memcg, @mc, is empty. Then if kmem_cache_alloc races with the memory
cgroup destruction we can access the memory cgroup's copy of the cache
after it was destroyed:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
[ current=@t
@mc->memcg_params->nr_pages=0 ]
kmem_cache_alloc(@c):
call memcg_kmem_get_cache(@c);
proceed to allocation from @mc:
alloc a page for @mc:
...
move @t from @memcg
destroy @memcg:
mem_cgroup_css_offline(@memcg):
memcg_unregister_all_caches(@memcg):
kmem_cache_destroy(@mc)
add page to @mc
We could fix this issue by taking a reference to a per-memcg cache, but
that would require adding a per-cpu reference counter to per-memcg caches,
which would look cumbersome.
Instead, let's take a reference to a memory cgroup, which already has a
per-cpu reference counter, in the beginning of kmem_cache_alloc to be
dropped in the end, and move per memcg caches destruction from css offline
to css free. As a side effect, per-memcg caches will be destroyed not one
by one, but all at once when the last page accounted to the memory cgroup
is freed. This doesn't sound as a high price for code readability though.
Note, this patch does add some overhead to the kmem_cache_alloc hot path,
but it is pretty negligible - it's just a function call plus a per cpu
counter decrement, which is comparable to what we already have in
memcg_kmem_get_cache. Besides, it's only relevant if there are memory
cgroups with kmem accounting enabled. I don't think we can find a way to
handle this race w/o it, because alloc_page called from kmem_cache_alloc
may sleep so we can't flush all pending kmallocs w/o reference counting.

Memory cgroups used to have 5 per-page pointers. To allow users to
disable that amount of overhead during runtime, those pointers were
allocated in a separate array, with a translation layer between them and
struct page.
There is now only one page pointer remaining: the memcg pointer, that
indicates which cgroup the page is associated with when charged. The
complexity of runtime allocation and the runtime translation overhead is
no longer justified to save that *potential* 0.19% of memory. With
CONFIG_SLUB, page->mem_cgroup actually sits in the doubleword padding
after the page->private member and doesn't even increase struct page,
and then this patch actually saves space. Remaining users that care can
still compile their kernels without CONFIG_MEMCG.

Since commit d7365e783e ("mm: memcontrol: fix missed end-writeback
page accounting") mem_cgroup_end_page_stat consumes locked and flags
variables directly rather than via pointers which might trigger C
undefined behavior as those variables are initialized only in the slow
path of mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat.
Although mem_cgroup_end_page_stat handles parameters correctly and
touches them only when they hold a sensible value it is caller which
loads a potentially uninitialized value which then might allow compiler
to do crazy things.
I haven't seen any warning from gcc and it seems that the current

Memory is internally accounted in bytes, using spinlock-protected 64-bit
counters, even though the smallest accounting delta is a page. The
counter interface is also convoluted and does too many things.
Introduce a new lockless word-sized page counter API, then change all
memory accounting over to it. The translation from and to bytes then only
happens when interfacing with userspace.
The removed locking overhead is noticable when scaling beyond the per-cpu
charge caches - on a 4-socket machine with 144-threads, the following test
shows the performance differences of 288 memcgs concurrently running a
page fault benchmark:

On top of improved scalability, this also gets rid of the icky long long
types in the very heart of memcg, which is great for 32 bit and also makes
the code a lot more readable.
Notable differences between the old and new API:
- res_counter_charge() and res_counter_charge_nofail() become
page_counter_try_charge() and page_counter_charge() resp. to match
the more common kernel naming scheme of try_do()/do()
- res_counter_uncharge_until() is only ever used to cancel a local
counter and never to uncharge bigger segments of a hierarchy, so
it's replaced by the simpler page_counter_cancel()
- res_counter_set_limit() is replaced by page_counter_limit(), which
expects its callers to serialize against themselves
- res_counter_memparse_write_strategy() is replaced by
page_counter_limit(), which rounds down to the nearest page size -
rather than up. This is more reasonable for explicitely requested
hard upper limits.
- to keep charging light-weight, page_counter_try_charge() charges
speculatively, only to roll back if the result exceeds the limit.
Because of this, a failing bigger charge can temporarily lock out
smaller charges that would otherwise succeed. The error is bounded
to the difference between the smallest and the biggest possible
charge size, so for memcg, this means that a failing THP charge can
send base page charges into reclaim upto 2MB (4MB) before the limit
would have been reached. This should be acceptable.

Commit 0a31bc97c8 ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API") changed
page migration to uncharge the old page right away. The page is locked,
unmapped, truncated, and off the LRU, but it could race with writeback
ending, which then doesn't unaccount the page properly:
test_clear_page_writeback() migration
wait_on_page_writeback()
TestClearPageWriteback()
mem_cgroup_migrate()
clear PCG_USED
mem_cgroup_update_page_stat()
if (PageCgroupUsed(pc))
decrease memcg pages under writeback
release pc->mem_cgroup->move_lock
The per-page statistics interface is heavily optimized to avoid a
function call and a lookup_page_cgroup() in the file unmap fast path,
which means it doesn't verify whether a page is still charged before
clearing PageWriteback() and it has to do it in the stat update later.
Rework it so that it looks up the page's memcg once at the beginning of
the transaction and then uses it throughout. The charge will be
verified before clearing PageWriteback() and migration can't uncharge
the page as long as that is still set. The RCU lock will protect the
memcg past uncharge.
As far as losing the optimization goes, the following test results are
from a microbenchmark that maps, faults, and unmaps a 4GB sparse file
three times in a nested fashion, so that there are two negative passes
that don't account but still go through the new transaction overhead.
There is no actual difference:
old: 33.195102545 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.01% )
new: 33.199231369 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.03% )
The time spent in page_remove_rmap()'s callees still adds up to the
same, but the time spent in the function itself seems reduced:

The only reason why they live in memcontrol.c is that we get/put css
reference to the owner memory cgroup in them. However, we can do that in
memcg_{un,}register_cache. OTOH, there are several reasons to move them
to slab_common.c.
First, I think that the less public interface functions we have in
memcontrol.h the better. Since the functions I move don't depend on
memcontrol, I think it's worth making them private to slab, especially
taking into account that the arrays are defined on the slab's side too.
Second, the way how per-memcg arrays are updated looks rather awkward: it
proceeds from memcontrol.c (__memcg_activate_kmem) to slab_common.c
(memcg_update_all_caches) and back to memcontrol.c again
(memcg_update_array_size). In the following patches I move the function
relocating the arrays (memcg_update_array_size) to slab_common.c and
therefore get rid this circular call path. I think we should have the
cache allocation stuff in the same place where we have relocation, because
it's easier to follow the code then. So I move arrays alloc/free
functions to slab_common.c too.
The third point isn't obvious. I'm going to make the list_lru structure
per-memcg to allow targeted kmem reclaim. That means we will have
per-memcg arrays in list_lrus too. It turns out that it's much easier to
update these arrays in list_lru.c rather than in memcontrol.c, because all
the stuff we need is defined there. This patch makes memcg caches arrays
allocation path conform that of the upcoming list_lru.
So let's move these functions to slab_common.c and make them static.

The memcg uncharging code that is involved towards the end of a page's
lifetime - truncation, reclaim, swapout, migration - is impressively
complicated and fragile.
Because anonymous and file pages were always charged before they had their
page->mapping established, uncharges had to happen when the page type
could still be known from the context; as in unmap for anonymous, page
cache removal for file and shmem pages, and swap cache truncation for swap
pages. However, these operations happen well before the page is actually
freed, and so a lot of synchronization is necessary:
- Charging, uncharging, page migration, and charge migration all need
to take a per-page bit spinlock as they could race with uncharging.
- Swap cache truncation happens during both swap-in and swap-out, and
possibly repeatedly before the page is actually freed. This means
that the memcg swapout code is called from many contexts that make
no sense and it has to figure out the direction from page state to
make sure memory and memory+swap are always correctly charged.
- On page migration, the old page might be unmapped but then reused,
so memcg code has to prevent untimely uncharging in that case.
Because this code - which should be a simple charge transfer - is so
special-cased, it is not reusable for replace_page_cache().
But now that charged pages always have a page->mapping, introduce
mem_cgroup_uncharge(), which is called after the final put_page(), when we
know for sure that nobody is looking at the page anymore.
For page migration, introduce mem_cgroup_migrate(), which is called after
the migration is successful and the new page is fully rmapped. Because
the old page is no longer uncharged after migration, prevent double
charges by decoupling the page's memcg association (PCG_USED and
pc->mem_cgroup) from the page holding an actual charge. The new bits
PCG_MEM and PCG_MEMSW represent the respective charges and are transferred
to the new page during migration.
mem_cgroup_migrate() is suitable for replace_page_cache() as well,
which gets rid of mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache(). However, care
needs to be taken because both the source and the target page can
already be charged and on the LRU when fuse is splicing: grab the page
lock on the charge moving side to prevent changing pc->mem_cgroup of a
page under migration. Also, the lruvecs of both pages change as we
uncharge the old and charge the new during migration, and putback may
race with us, so grab the lru lock and isolate the pages iff on LRU to
prevent races and ensure the pages are on the right lruvec afterward.
Swap accounting is massively simplified: because the page is no longer
uncharged as early as swap cache deletion, a new mem_cgroup_swapout() can
transfer the page's memory+swap charge (PCG_MEMSW) to the swap entry
before the final put_page() in page reclaim.
Finally, page_cgroup changes are now protected by whatever protection the
page itself offers: anonymous pages are charged under the page table lock,
whereas page cache insertions, swapin, and migration hold the page lock.
Uncharging happens under full exclusion with no outstanding references.
Charging and uncharging also ensure that the page is off-LRU, which
serializes against charge migration. Remove the very costly page_cgroup
lock and set pc->flags non-atomically.

These patches rework memcg charge lifetime to integrate more naturally
with the lifetime of user pages. This drastically simplifies the code and
reduces charging and uncharging overhead. The most expensive part of
charging and uncharging is the page_cgroup bit spinlock, which is removed
entirely after this series.

This patch (of 4):
The memcg charge API charges pages before they are rmapped - i.e. have an
actual "type" - and so every callsite needs its own set of charge and
uncharge functions to know what type is being operated on. Worse,
uncharge has to happen from a context that is still type-specific, rather
than at the end of the page's lifetime with exclusive access, and so
requires a lot of synchronization.
Rewrite the charge API to provide a generic set of try_charge(),
commit_charge() and cancel_charge() transaction operations, much like
what's currently done for swap-in:
mem_cgroup_try_charge() attempts to reserve a charge, reclaiming
pages from the memcg if necessary.
mem_cgroup_commit_charge() commits the page to the charge once it
has a valid page->mapping and PageAnon() reliably tells the type.
mem_cgroup_cancel_charge() aborts the transaction.
This reduces the charge API and enables subsequent patches to
drastically simplify uncharging.
As pages need to be committed after rmap is established but before they
are added to the LRU, page_add_new_anon_rmap() must stop doing LRU
additions again. Revive lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable().

At present, we have the following mutexes protecting data related to per
memcg kmem caches:
- slab_mutex. This one is held during the whole kmem cache creation
and destruction paths. We also take it when updating per root cache
memcg_caches arrays (see memcg_update_all_caches). As a result, taking
it guarantees there will be no changes to any kmem cache (including per
memcg). Why do we need something else then? The point is it is
private to slab implementation and has some internal dependencies with
other mutexes (get_online_cpus). So we just don't want to rely upon it
and prefer to introduce additional mutexes instead.
- activate_kmem_mutex. Initially it was added to synchronize
initializing kmem limit (memcg_activate_kmem). However, since we can
grow per root cache memcg_caches arrays only on kmem limit
initialization (see memcg_update_all_caches), we also employ it to
protect against memcg_caches arrays relocation (e.g. see
__kmem_cache_destroy_memcg_children).
- We have a convention not to take slab_mutex in memcontrol.c, but we
want to walk over per memcg memcg_slab_caches lists there (e.g. for
destroying all memcg caches on offline). So we have per memcg
slab_caches_mutex's protecting those lists.
The mutexes are taken in the following order:
activate_kmem_mutex -> slab_mutex -> memcg::slab_caches_mutex
Such a syncrhonization scheme has a number of flaws, for instance:
- We can't call kmem_cache_{destroy,shrink} while walking over a
memcg::memcg_slab_caches list due to locking order. As a result, in
mem_cgroup_destroy_all_caches we schedule the
memcg_cache_params::destroy work shrinking and destroying the cache.
- We don't have a mutex to synchronize per memcg caches destruction
between memcg offline (mem_cgroup_destroy_all_caches) and root cache
destruction (__kmem_cache_destroy_memcg_children). Currently we just
don't bother about it.
This patch simplifies it by substituting per memcg slab_caches_mutex's
with the global memcg_slab_mutex. It will be held whenever a new per
memcg cache is created or destroyed, so it protects per root cache
memcg_caches arrays and per memcg memcg_slab_caches lists. The locking
order is following:
activate_kmem_mutex -> memcg_slab_mutex -> slab_mutex
This allows us to call kmem_cache_{create,shrink,destroy} under the
memcg_slab_mutex. As a result, we don't need memcg_cache_params::destroy
work any more - we can simply destroy caches while iterating over a per
memcg slab caches list.
Also using the global mutex simplifies synchronization between concurrent
per memcg caches creation/destruction, e.g. mem_cgroup_destroy_all_caches
vs __kmem_cache_destroy_memcg_children.
The downside of this is that we substitute per-memcg slab_caches_mutex's
with a hummer-like global mutex, but since we already take either the
slab_mutex or the cgroup_mutex along with a memcg::slab_caches_mutex, it
shouldn't hurt concurrency a lot.

This patchset is a part of preparations for kmemcg re-parenting. It
targets at simplifying kmemcg work-flows and synchronization.
First, it removes async per memcg cache destruction (see patches 1, 2).
Now caches are only destroyed on memcg offline. That means the caches
that are not empty on memcg offline will be leaked. However, they are
already leaked, because memcg_cache_params::nr_pages normally never drops
to 0 so the destruction work is never scheduled except kmem_cache_shrink
is called explicitly. In the future I'm planning reaping such dead caches
on vmpressure or periodically.
Second, it substitutes per memcg slab_caches_mutex's with the global
memcg_slab_mutex, which should be taken during the whole per memcg cache
creation/destruction path before the slab_mutex (see patch 3). This
greatly simplifies synchronization among various per memcg cache
creation/destruction paths.
I'm still not quite sure about the end picture, in particular I don't know
whether we should reap dead memcgs' kmem caches periodically or try to
merge them with their parents (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/20/38 for
more details), but whichever way we choose, this set looks like a
reasonable change to me, because it greatly simplifies kmemcg work-flows
and eases further development.
This patch (of 3):
After a memcg is offlined, we mark its kmem caches that cannot be deleted
right now due to pending objects as dead by setting the
memcg_cache_params::dead flag, so that memcg_release_pages will schedule
cache destruction (memcg_cache_params::destroy) as soon as the last slab
of the cache is freed (memcg_cache_params::nr_pages drops to zero).
I guess the idea was to destroy the caches as soon as possible, i.e.
immediately after freeing the last object. However, it just doesn't work
that way, because kmem caches always preserve some pages for the sake of
performance, so that nr_pages never gets to zero unless the cache is
shrunk explicitly using kmem_cache_shrink. Of course, we could account
the total number of objects on the cache or check if all the slabs
allocated for the cache are empty on kmem_cache_free and schedule
destruction if so, but that would be too costly.
Thus we have a piece of code that works only when we explicitly call
kmem_cache_shrink, but complicates the whole picture a lot. Moreover,
it's racy in fact. For instance, kmem_cache_shrink may free the last slab
and thus schedule cache destruction before it finishes checking that the
cache is empty, which can lead to use-after-free.
So I propose to remove this async cache destruction from
memcg_release_pages, and check if the cache is empty explicitly after
calling kmem_cache_shrink instead. This will simplify things a lot w/o
introducing any functional changes.
And regarding dead memcg caches (i.e. those that are left hanging around
after memcg offline for they have objects), I suppose we should reap them
either periodically or on vmpressure as Glauber suggested initially. I'm
going to implement this later.

Currently to allocate a page that should be charged to kmemcg (e.g.
threadinfo), we pass __GFP_KMEMCG flag to the page allocator. The page
allocated is then to be freed by free_memcg_kmem_pages. Apart from
looking asymmetrical, this also requires intrusion to the general
allocation path. So let's introduce separate functions that will
alloc/free pages charged to kmemcg.
The new functions are called alloc_kmem_pages and free_kmem_pages. They
should be used when the caller actually would like to use kmalloc, but
has to fall back to the page allocator for the allocation is large.
They only differ from alloc_pages and free_pages in that besides
allocating or freeing pages they also charge them to the kmem resource
counter of the current memory cgroup.

We have only a few places where we actually want to charge kmem so
instead of intruding into the general page allocation path with
__GFP_KMEMCG it's better to explictly charge kmem there. All kmem
charges will be easier to follow that way.
This is a step towards removing __GFP_KMEMCG. It removes __GFP_KMEMCG
from memcg caches' allocflags. Instead it makes slab allocation path
call memcg_charge_kmem directly getting memcg to charge from the cache's
memcg params.
This also eliminates any possibility of misaccounting an allocation
going from one memcg's cache to another memcg, because now we always
charge slabs against the memcg the cache belongs to. That's why this
patch removes the big comment to memcg_kmem_get_cache.

Currently we destroy children caches at the very beginning of
kmem_cache_destroy(). This is wrong, because the root cache will not
necessarily be destroyed in the end - if it has aliases (refcount > 0),
kmem_cache_destroy() will simply decrement its refcount and return. In
this case, at best we will get a bunch of warnings in dmesg, like this
one:

At worst - if kmem_cache_destroy() will race with an allocation from a

This patch fixes this by moving children caches destruction after the
check if the cache has aliases. Plus, it forbids destroying a root
cache if it still has children caches, because each children cache keeps
a reference to its parent.

- Move memcg cache name creation to a separate function to be called
from kmem_cache_create_memcg(). This allows us to get rid of the mutex
protecting the temporary buffer used for the name formatting, because
the whole cache creation path is protected by the slab_mutex.
- Get rid of memcg_create_kmem_cache(). This function serves as a proxy

path, it would be reduced to a function call, so let's inline it.

Currently, we have rather a messy function set relating to per-memcg
kmem cache initialization/destruction.
Per-memcg caches are created in memcg_create_kmem_cache(). This
function calls kmem_cache_create_memcg() to allocate and initialize a
kmem cache and then "registers" the new cache in the
memcg_params::memcg_caches array of the parent cache.
During its work-flow, kmem_cache_create_memcg() executes the following
memcg-related functions:
- memcg_alloc_cache_params(), to initialize memcg_params of the newly
created cache;
- memcg_cache_list_add(), to add the new cache to the memcg_slab_caches
list.
On the other hand, kmem_cache_destroy() called on a cache destruction
only calls memcg_release_cache(), which does all the work: it cleans the
reference to the cache in its parent's memcg_params::memcg_caches,
removes the cache from the memcg_slab_caches list, and frees
memcg_params.
Such an inconsistency between destruction and initialization paths make
the code difficult to read, so let's clean this up a bit.
This patch moves all the code relating to registration of per-memcg
caches (adding to memcg list, setting the pointer to a cache from its
parent) to the newly created memcg_register_cache() and
memcg_unregister_cache() functions making the initialization and
destruction paths look symmetrical.

We do not free the cache's memcg_params if __kmem_cache_create fails.
Fix this.
Plus, rename memcg_register_cache() to memcg_alloc_cache_params(),
because it actually does not register the cache anywhere, but simply
initialize kmem_cache::memcg_params.

Commit 3812c8c8f3 ("mm: memcg: do not trap chargers with full
callstack on OOM") assumed that only a few places that can trigger a
memcg OOM situation do not return VM_FAULT_OOM, like optional page cache
readahead. But there are many more and it's impractical to annotate
them all.
First of all, we don't want to invoke the OOM killer when the failed
allocation is gracefully handled, so defer the actual kill to the end of
the fault handling as well. This simplifies the code quite a bit for
added bonus.
Second, since a failed allocation might not be the abrupt end of the
fault, the memcg OOM handler needs to be re-entrant until the fault
finishes for subsequent allocation attempts. If an allocation is
attempted after the task already OOMed, allow it to bypass the limit so
that it can quickly finish the fault and invoke the OOM killer.

Add memcg routines to count writeback pages, later dirty pages will also
be accounted.
After Kame's commit 89c06bd52f ("memcg: use new logic for page stat
accounting"), we can use 'struct page' flag to test page state instead
of per page_cgroup flag. But memcg has a feature to move a page from a
cgroup to another one and may have race between "move" and "page stat
accounting". So in order to avoid the race we have designed a new lock:
mem_cgroup_begin_update_page_stat()
modify page information -->(a)
mem_cgroup_update_page_stat() -->(b)
mem_cgroup_end_update_page_stat()
It requires both (a) and (b)(writeback pages accounting) to be pretected
in mem_cgroup_{begin/end}_update_page_stat(). It's full no-op for
!CONFIG_MEMCG, almost no-op if memcg is disabled (but compiled in), rcu
read lock in the most cases (no task is moving), and spin_lock_irqsave
on top in the slow path.
There're two writeback interfaces to modify: test_{clear/set}_page_writeback().
And the lock order is:
--> memcg->move_lock
--> mapping->tree_lock

The memcg OOM handling is incredibly fragile and can deadlock. When a
task fails to charge memory, it invokes the OOM killer and loops right
there in the charge code until it succeeds. Comparably, any other task
that enters the charge path at this point will go to a waitqueue right
then and there and sleep until the OOM situation is resolved. The problem
is that these tasks may hold filesystem locks and the mmap_sem; locks that
the selected OOM victim may need to exit.
For example, in one reported case, the task invoking the OOM killer was
about to charge a page cache page during a write(), which holds the
i_mutex. The OOM killer selected a task that was just entering truncate()
and trying to acquire the i_mutex:
OOM invoking task:
mem_cgroup_handle_oom+0x241/0x3b0
mem_cgroup_cache_charge+0xbe/0xe0
add_to_page_cache_locked+0x4c/0x140
add_to_page_cache_lru+0x22/0x50
grab_cache_page_write_begin+0x8b/0xe0
ext3_write_begin+0x88/0x270

do_sync_write+0xea/0x130
vfs_write+0xf3/0x1f0
sys_write+0x51/0x90
system_call_fastpath+0x18/0x1d
OOM kill victim:
do_truncate+0x58/0xa0 # takes i_mutex
do_last+0x250/0xa30
path_openat+0xd7/0x440
do_filp_open+0x49/0xa0
do_sys_open+0x106/0x240
sys_open+0x20/0x30
system_call_fastpath+0x18/0x1d
The OOM handling task will retry the charge indefinitely while the OOM
killed task is not releasing any resources.
A similar scenario can happen when the kernel OOM killer for a memcg is
disabled and a userspace task is in charge of resolving OOM situations.
In this case, ALL tasks that enter the OOM path will be made to sleep on
the OOM waitqueue and wait for userspace to free resources or increase
the group's limit. But a userspace OOM handler is prone to deadlock
itself on the locks held by the waiting tasks. For example one of the
sleeping tasks may be stuck in a brk() call with the mmap_sem held for
writing but the userspace handler, in order to pick an optimal victim,
may need to read files from /proc/<pid>, which tries to acquire the same
mmap_sem for reading and deadlocks.
This patch changes the way tasks behave after detecting a memcg OOM and
makes sure nobody loops or sleeps with locks held:
1. When OOMing in a user fault, invoke the OOM killer and restart the
fault instead of looping on the charge attempt. This way, the OOM
victim can not get stuck on locks the looping task may hold.
2. When OOMing in a user fault but somebody else is handling it
(either the kernel OOM killer or a userspace handler), don't go to
sleep in the charge context. Instead, remember the OOMing memcg in
the task struct and then fully unwind the page fault stack with
-ENOMEM. pagefault_out_of_memory() will then call back into the
memcg code to check if the -ENOMEM came from the memcg, and then
either put the task to sleep on the memcg's OOM waitqueue or just
restart the fault. The OOM victim can no longer get stuck on any
lock a sleeping task may hold.

The caller of the iterator might know that some nodes or even subtrees
should be skipped but there is no way to tell iterators about that so the
only choice left is to let iterators to visit each node and do the
selection outside of the iterating code. This, however, doesn't scale
well with hierarchies with many groups where only few groups are
interesting.
This patch adds mem_cgroup_iter_cond variant of the iterator with a
callback which gets called for every visited node. There are three
possible ways how the callback can influence the walk. Either the node is
visited, it is skipped but the tree walk continues down the tree or the
whole subtree of the current group is skipped.

Soft reclaim has been done only for the global reclaim (both background
and direct). Since "memcg: integrate soft reclaim tighter with zone
shrinking code" there is no reason for this limitation anymore as the soft
limit reclaim doesn't use any special code paths and it is a part of the
zone shrinking code which is used by both global and targeted reclaims.
From the semantic point of view it is natural to consider soft limit
before touching all groups in the hierarchy tree which is touching the
hard limit because soft limit tells us where to push back when there is a
memory pressure. It is not important whether the pressure comes from the
limit or imbalanced zones.
This patch simply enables soft reclaim unconditionally in
mem_cgroup_should_soft_reclaim so it is enabled for both global and
targeted reclaim paths. mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim_eligible needs to learn
about the root of the reclaim to know where to stop checking soft limit
state of parents up the hierarchy. Say we have
A (over soft limit)
\
B (below s.l., hit the hard limit)
/ \
C D (below s.l.)
B is the source of the outside memory pressure now for D but we shouldn't
soft reclaim it because it is behaving well under B subtree and we can
still reclaim from C (pressumably it is over the limit).
mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim_eligible should therefore stop climbing up the
hierarchy at B (root of the memory pressure).

This patchset is sitting out of tree for quite some time without any
objections. I would be really happy if it made it into 3.12. I do not
want to push it too hard but I think this work is basically ready and
waiting more doesn't help.
The basic idea is quite simple. Pull soft reclaim into shrink_zone in the
first step and get rid of the previous soft reclaim infrastructure.
shrink_zone is done in two passes now. First it tries to do the soft
limit reclaim and it falls back to reclaim-all mode if no group is over
the limit or no pages have been scanned. The second pass happens at the
same priority so the only time we waste is the memcg tree walk which has
been updated in the third step to have only negligible overhead.
As a bonus we will get rid of a _lot_ of code by this and soft reclaim
will not stand out like before when it wasn't integrated into the zone
shrinking code and it reclaimed at priority 0 (the testing results show
that some workloads suffers from such an aggressive reclaim). The clean
up is in a separate patch because I felt it would be easier to review that
way.
The second step is soft limit reclaim integration into targeted reclaim.
It should be rather straight forward. Soft limit has been used only for
the global reclaim so far but it makes sense for any kind of pressure
coming from up-the-hierarchy, including targeted reclaim.
The third step (patches 4-8) addresses the tree walk overhead by enhancing
memcg iterators to enable skipping whole subtrees and tracking number of
over soft limit children at each level of the hierarchy. This information
is updated same way the old soft limit tree was updated (from
memcg_check_events) so we shouldn't see an additional overhead. In fact
mem_cgroup_update_soft_limit is much simpler than tree manipulation done
previously.
__shrink_zone uses mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim_eligible as a predicate for
mem_cgroup_iter so the decision whether a particular group should be
visited is done at the iterator level which allows us to decide to skip
the whole subtree as well (if there is no child in excess). This reduces
the tree walk overhead considerably.
* TEST 1
========
My primary test case was a parallel kernel build with 2 groups (make is
running with -j8 with a distribution .config in a separate cgroup without
any hard limit) on a 32 CPU machine booted with 1GB memory and both builds
run taskset to Node 0 cpus.
I was mostly interested in 2 setups. Default - no soft limit set and -
and 0 soft limit set to both groups. The first one should tell us whether
the rework regresses the default behavior while the second one should show
us improvements in an extreme case where both workloads are always over
the soft limit.
/usr/bin/time -v has been used to collect the statistics and each
configuration had 3 runs after fresh boot without any other load on the
system.

The improvement is really huge here (even bigger than with my previous

Same as with my previous testing Minor faults are more or less within
noise but Major fault count is way bellow the base kernel.
While this looks as a nice win it is fair to say that 0-limit
configuration is quite artificial. So I was playing with 0-no-limit
loads as well.
* TEST 2
========
The following results are from 2 groups configuration on a 16GB machine
(single NUMA node).
- A running stream IO (dd if=/dev/zero of=local.file bs=1024) with
2*TotalMem with 0 soft limit.
- B running a mem_eater which consumes TotalMem-1G without any limit. The
mem_eater consumes the memory in 100 chunks with 1s nap after each
mmap+poppulate so that both loads have chance to fight for the memory.
The expected result is that B shouldn't be reclaimed and A shouldn't see
a big dropdown in elapsed time.

System time improved slightly as well as Elapsed. My previous testing
has shown worse numbers but this again seem to depend on the storage
speed.
My theory is that the writeback doesn't catch up and prio-0 soft reclaim
falls into wait on writeback page too often in the base kernel. The
patched kernel doesn't do that because the soft reclaim is done from the
kswapd/direct reclaim context. This can be seen on the following graph
nicely. The A's group usage_in_bytes regurarly drops really low very often.
All 3 runs

resp. a detail of the single run
http://labs.suse.cz/mhocko/soft_limit_rework/stream_io-vs-mem_eater/stream-one-run.png
mem_eater seems to be doing better as well. It gets to the full
allocation size faster as can be seen on the following graph:
http://labs.suse.cz/mhocko/soft_limit_rework/stream_io-vs-mem_eater/mem_eater-one-run.png
/proc/meminfo collected during the test also shows that rework kernel
hasn't swapped that much (well almost not at all):
base: max: 123900 K avg: 56388.29 K
rework: max: 300 K avg: 128.68 K
kswapd and direct reclaim statistics are of no use unfortunatelly because
soft reclaim is not accounted properly as the counters are hidden by
global_reclaim() checks in the base kernel.
* TEST 3
========
Another test was the same configuration as TEST2 except the stream IO was
replaced by a single kbuild (16 parallel jobs bound to Node0 cpus same as
in TEST1) and mem_eater allocated TotalMem-200M so kbuild had only 200MB
left.
Kbuild did better with the rework kernel here as well:

Again we can see a significant improvement in Elapsed (it also seems to
be more stable), there is a huge dropdown for the Major page faults and
much more swapping:
base: max: 583736 K avg: 112547.43 K
rework: max: 4012 K avg: 124.36 K
Graphs from all three runs show the variability of the kbuild quite
nicely. It even seems that it took longer after every run with the base
kernel which would be quite surprising as the source tree for the build is
removed and caches are dropped after each run so the build operates on a
freshly extracted sources everytime.
http://labs.suse.cz/mhocko/soft_limit_rework/stream_io-vs-mem_eater/kbuild-mem_eater.png
My other testing shows that this is just a matter of timing and other runs
behave differently the std for Elapsed time is similar ~50. Example of
other three runs:
http://labs.suse.cz/mhocko/soft_limit_rework/stream_io-vs-mem_eater/kbuild-mem_eater2.png
So to wrap this up. The series is still doing good and improves the soft
limit.
The testing results for bunch of cgroups with both stream IO and kbuild
loads can be found in "memcg: track children in soft limit excess to
improve soft limit".
This patch:
Memcg soft reclaim has been traditionally triggered from the global
reclaim paths before calling shrink_zone. mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim
then picked up a group which exceeds the soft limit the most and reclaimed
it with 0 priority to reclaim at least SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages.
The infrastructure requires per-node-zone trees which hold over-limit
groups and keep them up-to-date (via memcg_check_events) which is not cost
free. Although this overhead hasn't turned out to be a bottle neck the
implementation is suboptimal because mem_cgroup_update_tree has no idea
which zones consumed memory over the limit so we could easily end up
having a group on a node-zone tree having only few pages from that
node-zone.
This patch doesn't try to fix node-zone trees management because it seems
that integrating soft reclaim into zone shrinking sounds much easier and
more appropriate for several reasons. First of all 0 priority reclaim was
a crude hack which might lead to big stalls if the group's LRUs are big
and hard to reclaim (e.g. a lot of dirty/writeback pages). Soft reclaim
should be applicable also to the targeted reclaim which is awkward right
now without additional hacks. Last but not least the whole infrastructure
eats quite some code.
After this patch shrink_zone is done in 2 passes. First it tries to do
the soft reclaim if appropriate (only for global reclaim for now to keep
compatible with the original state) and fall back to ignoring soft limit
if no group is eligible to soft reclaim or nothing has been scanned during
the first pass. Only groups which are over their soft limit or any of
their parents up the hierarchy is over the limit are considered eligible
during the first pass.
Soft limit tree which is not necessary anymore will be removed in the
follow up patch to make this patch smaller and easier to review.

cgroup is currently in the process of transitioning to using struct
cgroup_subsys_state * as the primary handle instead of struct cgroup.
Please see the previous commit which converts the subsystem methods
for rationale.
This patch converts all cftype file operations to take @css instead of
@cgroup. cftypes for the cgroup core files don't have their subsytem
pointer set. These will automatically use the dummy_css added by the
previous patch and can be converted the same way.
Most subsystem conversions are straight forwards but there are some
interesting ones.
* freezer: update_if_frozen() is also converted to take @css instead
of @cgroup for consistency. This will make the code look simpler
too once iterators are converted to use css.
* memory/vmpressure: mem_cgroup_from_css() needs to be exported to
vmpressure while mem_cgroup_from_cont() can be made static.
Updated accordingly.

This hasn't generated any problems so far, because all users use i as a

ended using another loop index and the compiler was quick to complain.

This patch clarifies two aspects of cache attribute propagation.
First, the expected context for the for_each_memcg_cache macro in
memcontrol.h. The usages already in the codebase are safe. In mm/slub.c,
it is trivially safe because the lock is acquired right before the loop.
In mm/slab.c, it is less so: the lock is acquired by an outer function a
few steps back in the stack, so a VM_BUG_ON() is added to make sure it is
indeed safe.
A comment is also added to detail why we are returning the value of the
parent cache and ignoring the children's when we propagate the attributes.

SLAB allows us to tune a particular cache behavior with tunables. When
creating a new memcg cache copy, we'd like to preserve any tunables the
parent cache already had.
This could be done by an explicit call to do_tune_cpucache() after the
cache is created. But this is not very convenient now that the caches are
created from common code, since this function is SLAB-specific.
Another method of doing that is taking advantage of the fact that
do_tune_cpucache() is always called from enable_cpucache(), which is
called at cache initialization. We can just preset the values, and then
things work as expected.
It can also happen that a root cache has its tunables updated during
normal system operation. In this case, we will propagate the change to
all caches that are already active.
This change will require us to move the assignment of root_cache in
memcg_params a bit earlier. We need this to be already set - which
memcg_kmem_register_cache will do - when we reach __kmem_cache_create()

The page allocator is able to bind a page to a memcg when it is
allocated. But for the caches, we'd like to have as many objects as
possible in a page belonging to the same cache.
This is done in this patch by calling memcg_kmem_get_cache in the
beginning of every allocation function. This function is patched out by
static branches when kernel memory controller is not being used.
It assumes that the task allocating, which determines the memcg in the
page allocator, belongs to the same cgroup throughout the whole process.
Misaccounting can happen if the task calls memcg_kmem_get_cache() while
belonging to a cgroup, and later on changes. This is considered
acceptable, and should only happen upon task migration.
Before the cache is created by the memcg core, there is also a possible
imbalance: the task belongs to a memcg, but the cache being allocated from
is the global cache, since the child cache is not yet guaranteed to be
ready. This case is also fine, since in this case the GFP_KMEMCG will not
be passed and the page allocator will not attempt any cgroup accounting.

Every cache that is considered a root cache (basically the "original"
caches, tied to the root memcg/no-memcg) will have an array that should be
large enough to store a cache pointer per each memcg in the system.
Theoreticaly, this is as high as 1 << sizeof(css_id), which is currently
in the 64k pointers range. Most of the time, we won't be using that much.
What goes in this patch, is a simple scheme to dynamically allocate such
an array, in order to minimize memory usage for memcg caches. Because we
would also like to avoid allocations all the time, at least for now, the
array will only grow. It will tend to be big enough to hold the maximum
number of kmem-limited memcgs ever achieved.
We'll allocate it to be a minimum of 64 kmem-limited memcgs. When we have
more than that, we'll start doubling the size of this array every time the
limit is reached.
Because we are only considering kmem limited memcgs, a natural point for
this to happen is when we write to the limit. At that point, we already
have set_limit_mutex held, so that will become our natural synchronization
mechanism.

the cache to a memcg-specific cache
Default function is created as a wrapper, passing NULL to the memcg

A helper is provided, memcg_css_id: because slub needs a unique cache name
for sysfs. Since this is visible, but not the canonical location for slab
data, the cache name is not used, the css_id should suffice.

We can use static branches to patch the code in or out when not used.
Because the _ACTIVE bit on kmem_accounted is only set after the increment
is done, we guarantee that the root memcg will always be selected for kmem
charges until all call sites are patched (see memcg_kmem_enabled). This
guarantees that no mischarges are applied.
Static branch decrement happens when the last reference count from the
kmem accounting in memcg dies. This will only happen when the charges
drop down to 0.
When that happens, we need to disable the static branch only on those
memcgs that enabled it. To achieve this, we would be forced to complicate
the code by keeping track of which memcgs were the ones that actually
enabled limits, and which ones got it from its parents.
It is a lot simpler just to do static_key_slow_inc() on every child
that is accounted.

Introduce infrastructure for tracking kernel memory pages to a given

In memcontrol.h those functions are wrapped in inline acessors. The idea
is to later on, patch those with static branches, so we don't incur any
overhead when no mem cgroups with limited kmem are being used.
Users of this functionality shall interact with the memcg core code
through the following functions:
memcg_kmem_newpage_charge: will return true if the group can handle the
allocation. At this point, struct page is not
yet allocated.
memcg_kmem_commit_charge: will either revert the charge, if struct page
allocation failed, or embed memcg information
into page_cgroup.
memcg_kmem_uncharge_page: called at free time, will revert the charge.

Compaction (and page migration in general) can currently be hindered
through pages being owned by memory cgroups that are at their limits and
unreclaimable.
The reason is that the replacement page is being charged against the limit
while the page being replaced is also still charged. But this seems
unnecessary, given that only one of the two pages will still be in use
after migration finishes.
This patch changes the memcg migration sequence so that the replacement
page is not charged. Whatever page is still in use after successful or
failed migration gets to keep the charge of the page that was going to be
replaced.
The replacement page will still show up temporarily in the rss/cache
statistics, this can be fixed in a later patch as it's less urgent.

The global oom killer is serialized by the per-zonelist
try_set_zonelist_oom() which is used in the page allocator. Concurrent
oom kills are thus a rare event and only occur in systems using
mempolicies and with a large number of nodes.
Memory controller oom kills, however, can frequently be concurrent since
there is no serialization once the oom killer is called for oom conditions
in several different memcgs in parallel.
This creates a massive contention on tasklist_lock since the oom killer
requires the readside for the tasklist iteration. If several memcgs are
calling the oom killer, this lock can be held for a substantial amount of
time, especially if threads continue to enter it as other threads are
exiting.
Since the exit path grabs the writeside of the lock with irqs disabled in
a few different places, this can cause a soft lockup on cpus as a result
of tasklist_lock starvation.
The kernel lacks unfair writelocks, and successful calls to the oom killer
usually result in at least one thread entering the exit path, so an
alternative solution is needed.
This patch introduces a seperate oom handler for memcgs so that they do
not require tasklist_lock for as much time. Instead, it iterates only
over the threads attached to the oom memcg and grabs a reference to the
selected thread before calling oom_kill_process() to ensure it doesn't
prematurely exit.
This still requires tasklist_lock for the tasklist dump, iterating
children of the selected process, and killing all other threads on the
system sharing the same memory as the selected victim. So while this
isn't a complete solution to tasklist_lock starvation, it significantly
reduces the amount of time that it is held.

Take lruvec further: pass it instead of zone to add_page_to_lru_list() and
del_page_from_lru_list(); and pagevec_lru_move_fn() pass lruvec down to
its target functions.
This cleanup eliminates a swathe of cruft in memcontrol.c, including
mem_cgroup_lru_add_list(), mem_cgroup_lru_del_list() and
mem_cgroup_lru_move_lists() - which never actually touched the lists.
In their place, mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() to decide the lruvec, previously
a side-effect of add, and mem_cgroup_update_lru_size() to maintain the
lru_size stats.
Whilst these are simplifications in their own right, the goal is to bring
the evaluation of lruvec next to the spin_locking of the lrus, in
preparation for a future patch.

The rmap walker checking page table references has historically ignored
references from VMAs that were not part of the memcg that was being
reclaimed during memcg hard limit reclaim.
When transitioning global reclaim to memcg hierarchy reclaim, I missed
that bit and now references from outside a memcg are ignored even during
global reclaim.
Reverting back to traditional behaviour - count all references during
global reclaim and only mind references of the memcg being reclaimed
during limit reclaim would be one option.
However, the more generic idea is to ignore references exactly then when
they are outside the hierarchy that is currently under reclaim; because
only then will their reclamation be of any use to help the pressure
situation. It makes no sense to ignore references from a sibling memcg
and then evict a page that will be immediately refaulted by that sibling
which contributes to the same usage of the common ancestor under
reclaim.
The solution: make the rmap walker ignore references from VMAs that are
not part of the hierarchy that is being reclaimed.
Flat limit reclaim will stay the same, hierarchical limit reclaim will
mind the references only to pages that the hierarchy owns. Global
reclaim, since it reclaims from all memcgs, will be fixed to regard all
references.

mem_cgroup_begin_update_page_stat() should be very fast because it's
called very frequently. Now, it needs to look up page_cgroup and its
memcg....this is slow.
This patch adds a global variable to check "any memcg is moving or not".
With this, the caller doesn't need to visit page_cgroup and memcg.
Here is a test result. A test program makes page faults onto a file,
MAP_SHARED and makes each page's page_mapcount(page) > 1, and free the
range by madvise() and page fault again. This program causes 26214400
times of page fault onto a file(size was 1G.) and shows shows the cost of
mem_cgroup_begin_update_page_stat().

Now, page-stat-per-memcg is recorded into per page_cgroup flag by
duplicating page's status into the flag. The reason is that memcg has a
feature to move a page from a group to another group and we have race
between "move" and "page stat accounting",
Under current logic, assume CPU-A and CPU-B. CPU-A does "move" and CPU-B
does "page stat accounting".
When CPU-A goes 1st,
CPU-A CPU-B
update "struct page" info.
move_lock_mem_cgroup(memcg)
see pc->flags
copy page stat to new group
overwrite pc->mem_cgroup.
move_unlock_mem_cgroup(memcg)
move_lock_mem_cgroup(mem)
set pc->flags
update page stat accounting
move_unlock_mem_cgroup(mem)
stat accounting is guarded by move_lock_mem_cgroup() and "move" logic
(CPU-A) doesn't see changes in "struct page" information.
But it's costly to have the same information both in 'struct page' and
'struct page_cgroup'. And, there is a potential problem.
For example, assume we have PG_dirty accounting in memcg.
PG_..is a flag for struct page.
PCG_ is a flag for struct page_cgroup.
(This is just an example. The same problem can be found in any
kind of page stat accounting.)
CPU-A CPU-B
TestSet PG_dirty
(delay) TestClear PG_dirty
if (TestClear(PCG_dirty))
memcg->nr_dirty--
if (TestSet(PCG_dirty))
memcg->nr_dirty++
Here, memcg->nr_dirty = +1, this is wrong. This race was reported by Greg
Thelen <gthelen@google.com>. Now, only FILE_MAPPED is supported but
fortunately, it's serialized by page table lock and this is not real bug,
_now_,
If this potential problem is caused by having duplicated information in
struct page and struct page_cgroup, we may be able to fix this by using
original 'struct page' information. But we'll have a problem in "move
account"
Assume we use only PG_dirty.
CPU-A CPU-B
TestSet PG_dirty
(delay) move_lock_mem_cgroup()
if (PageDirty(page))
new_memcg->nr_dirty++
pc->mem_cgroup = new_memcg;
move_unlock_mem_cgroup()
move_lock_mem_cgroup()
memcg = pc->mem_cgroup
new_memcg->nr_dirty++
accounting information may be double-counted. This was original reason to
have PCG_xxx flags but it seems PCG_xxx has another problem.
I think we need a bigger lock as
move_lock_mem_cgroup(page)
TestSetPageDirty(page)
update page stats (without any checks)
move_unlock_mem_cgroup(page)
This fixes both of problems and we don't have to duplicate page flag into
page_cgroup. Please note: move_lock_mem_cgroup() is held only when there
are possibility of "account move" under the system. So, in most path,
status update will go without atomic locks.
This patch introduces mem_cgroup_begin_update_page_stat() and
mem_cgroup_end_update_page_stat() both should be called at modifying
'struct page' information if memcg takes care of it. as
mem_cgroup_begin_update_page_stat()
modify page information
mem_cgroup_update_page_stat()
=> never check any 'struct page' info, just update counters.
mem_cgroup_end_update_page_stat().
This patch is slow because we need to call begin_update_page_stat()/
end_update_page_stat() regardless of accounted will be changed or not. A
following patch adds an easy optimization and reduces the cost.

When moving tasks from old memcg (with move_charge_at_immigrate on new
memcg), followed by removal of old memcg, hit General Protection Fault in
mem_cgroup_lru_del_list() (called from release_pages called from
free_pages_and_swap_cache from tlb_flush_mmu from tlb_finish_mmu from
exit_mmap from mmput from exit_mm from do_exit).
Somewhat reproducible, takes a few hours: the old struct mem_cgroup has
been freed and poisoned by SLAB_DEBUG, but mem_cgroup_lru_del_list() is
still trying to update its stats, and take page off lru before freeing.
A task, or a charge, or a page on lru: each secures a memcg against
removal. In this case, the last task has been moved out of the old memcg,
and it is exiting: anonymous pages are uncharged one by one from the
memcg, as they are zapped from its pagetables, so the charge gets down to
0; but the pages themselves are queued in an mmu_gather for freeing.
Most of those pages will be on lru (and force_empty is careful to
lru_add_drain_all, to add pages from pagevec to lru first), but not
necessarily all: perhaps some have been isolated for page reclaim, perhaps
some isolated for other reasons. So, force_empty may find no task, no
charge and no page on lru, and let the removal proceed.
There would still be no problem if these pages were immediately freed; but
typically (and the put_page_testzero protocol demands it) they have to be
added back to lru before they are found freeable, then removed from lru
and freed. We don't see the issue when adding, because the
mem_cgroup_iter() loops keep their own reference to the memcg being
scanned; but when it comes to mem_cgroup_lru_del_list().
I believe this was not an issue in v3.2: there, PageCgroupAcctLRU and
PageCgroupUsed flags were used (like a trick with mirrors) to deflect view
of pc->mem_cgroup to the stable root_mem_cgroup when neither set.
38c5d72f3e ("memcg: simplify LRU handling by new rule") mercifully
removed those convolutions, but left this General Protection Fault.
But it's surprisingly easy to restore the old behaviour: just check
PageCgroupUsed in mem_cgroup_lru_add_list() (which decides on which lruvec
to add), and reset pc to root_mem_cgroup if page is uncharged. A risky
change? just going back to how it worked before; testing, and an audit of
uses of pc->mem_cgroup, show no problem.
And there's a nice bonus: with mem_cgroup_lru_add_list() itself making
sure that an uncharged page goes to root lru, mem_cgroup_reset_owner() no
longer has any purpose, and we can safely revert 4e5f01c2b9 ("memcg:
clear pc->mem_cgroup if necessary").
Calling update_page_reclaim_stat() after add_page_to_lru_list() in swap.c
is not strictly necessary: the lru_lock there, with RCU before memcg
structures are freed, makes mem_cgroup_get_reclaim_stat_from_page safe
without that; but it seems cleaner to rely on one dependency less.

This is a preparation before removing a flag PCG_ACCT_LRU in page_cgroup
and reducing atomic ops/complexity in memcg LRU handling.
In some cases, pages are added to lru before charge to memcg and pages
are not classfied to memory cgroup at lru addtion. Now, the lru where
the page should be added is determined a bit in page_cgroup->flags and
pc->mem_cgroup. I'd like to remove the check of flag.
To handle the case pc->mem_cgroup may contain stale pointers if pages
are added to LRU before classification. This patch resets
pc->mem_cgroup to root_mem_cgroup before lru additions.

- LRU is locked and all tail pages will go into the same LRU as

In preparation of this, move the two right next to each other in

The mem_cgroup_hierarchical_reclaim() polymath is split into a soft

Commit ef6a3c6311 ("mm: add replace_page_cache_page() function") added a
function replace_page_cache_page(). This function replaces a page in the
radix-tree with a new page. WHen doing this, memory cgroup needs to fix
up the accounting information. memcg need to check PCG_USED bit etc.
In some(many?) cases, 'newpage' is on LRU before calling
replace_page_cache(). So, memcg's LRU accounting information should be
fixed, too.
This patch adds mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache() and removes the old hooks.
In that function, old pages will be unaccounted without touching
res_counter and new page will be accounted to the memcg (of old page).
WHen overwriting pc->mem_cgroup of newpage, take zone->lru_lock and avoid
races with LRU handling.
Background:
replace_page_cache_page() is called by FUSE code in its splice() handling.
Here, 'newpage' is replacing oldpage but this newpage is not a newly allocated
page and may be on LRU. LRU mis-accounting will be critical for memory cgroup
because rmdir() checks the whole LRU is empty and there is no account leak.
If a page is on the other LRU than it should be, rmdir() will fail.
This bug was added in March 2011, but no bug report yet. I guess there
are not many people who use memcg and FUSE at the same time with upstream
kernels.
The result of this bug is that admin cannot destroy a memcg because of
account leak. So, no panic, no deadlock. And, even if an active cgroup
exist, umount can succseed. So no problem at shutdown.

The goal of this work is to move the memory pressure tcp
controls to a cgroup, instead of just relying on global
conditions.
To avoid excessive overhead in the network fast paths,
the code that accounts allocated memory to a cgroup is
hidden inside a static_branch(). This branch is patched out
until the first non-root cgroup is created. So when nobody
is using cgroups, even if it is mounted, no significant performance
penalty should be seen.

Reclaim decides to skip scanning an active list when the corresponding
inactive list is above a certain size in comparison to leave the assumed
working set alone while there are still enough reclaim candidates around.
The memcg implementation of comparing those lists instead reports whether
the whole memcg is low on the requested type of inactive pages,
considering all nodes and zones.
This can lead to an oversized active list not being scanned because of the
state of the other lists in the memcg, as well as an active list being
scanned while its corresponding inactive list has enough pages.
Not only is this wrong, it's also a scalability hazard, because the global
memory state over all nodes and zones has to be gathered for each memcg
and zone scanned.
Make these calculations purely based on the size of the two LRU lists
that are actually affected by the outcome of the decision.

Quote from Johannes
" Hmm, it would probably be cleaner to fully convert the isolation mode
into independent flags. INACTIVE, ACTIVE, BOTH is currently a
tri-state among flags, which is a bit ugly."
This patch moves isolate mode from swap.h to mmzone.h by memcontrol.h

Revert the post-3.0 commit 82f9d486e5 ("memcg: add
memory.vmscan_stat").
The implementation of per-memcg reclaim statistics violates how memcg
hierarchies usually behave: hierarchically.
The reclaim statistics are accounted to child memcgs and the parent
hitting the limit, but not to hierarchy levels in between. Usually,
hierarchical statistics are perfectly recursive, with each level
representing the sum of itself and all its children.
Since this exports statistics to userspace, this may lead to confusion
and problems with changing things after the release, so revert it now,
we can try again later.

Remove mem_cgroup_shmem_charge_fallback(): it was only required when we
had to move swappage to filecache with GFP_NOWAIT.
Remove the GFP_NOWAIT special case from mem_cgroup_cache_charge(), by
moving its call out from shmem_add_to_page_cache() to two of thats three
callers. But leave it doing mem_cgroup_uncharge_cache_page() on error:
although asymmetrical, it's easier for all 3 callers to handle.
These two changes would also be appropriate if anyone were to start
using shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp() with GFP_NOWAIT.

The commit log of 0ae5e89c60 ("memcg: count the soft_limit reclaim
in...") says it adds scanning stats to memory.stat file. But it doesn't
because we considered we needed to make a concensus for such new APIs.
This patch is a trial to add memory.scan_stat. This shows
- the number of scanned pages(total, anon, file)
- the number of rotated pages(total, anon, file)
- the number of freed pages(total, anon, file)
- the number of elaplsed time (including sleep/pause time)
for both of direct/soft reclaim.
The biggest difference with oringinal Ying's one is that this file
can be reset by some write, as
# echo 0 ...../memory.scan_stat
Example of output is here. This is a result after make -j 6 kernel
under 300M limit.

total_xxxx is for hierarchy management.
This will be useful for further memcg developments and need to be
developped before we do some complicated rework on LRU/softlimit
management.
This patch adds a new struct memcg_scanrecord into scan_control struct.
sc->nr_scanned at el is not designed for exporting information. For
example, nr_scanned is reset frequentrly and incremented +2 at scanning
mapped pages.
To avoid complexity, I added a new param in scan_control which is for
exporting scanning score.

In mm/memcontrol.c, there are many lru stat functions as..
mem_cgroup_zone_nr_lru_pages
mem_cgroup_node_nr_file_lru_pages
mem_cgroup_nr_file_lru_pages
mem_cgroup_node_nr_anon_lru_pages
mem_cgroup_nr_anon_lru_pages

mem_cgroup_nr_unevictable_lru_pages
mem_cgroup_node_nr_lru_pages
mem_cgroup_nr_lru_pages
mem_cgroup_get_local_zonestat
Some of them are under #ifdef MAX_NUMNODES >1 and others are not.
This seems bad. This patch consolidates all functions into
mem_cgroup_zone_nr_lru_pages()
mem_cgroup_node_nr_lru_pages()
mem_cgroup_nr_lru_pages()
For these functions, "which LRU?" information is passed by a mask.
example:
mem_cgroup_nr_lru_pages(mem, BIT(LRU_ACTIVE_ANON))
And I added some macro as ALL_LRU, ALL_LRU_FILE, ALL_LRU_ANON.
example:
mem_cgroup_nr_lru_pages(mem, ALL_LRU)
BTW, considering layout of NUMA memory placement of counters, this patch seems
to be better.
Now, when we gather all LRU information, we scan in following orer
for_each_lru -> for_each_node -> for_each_zone.
This means we'll touch cache lines in different node in turn.
After patch, we'll scan
for_each_node -> for_each_zone -> for_each_lru(mask)
Then, we'll gather information in the same cacheline at once.

Currently, memcg reclaim can disable swap token even if the swap token mm
doesn't belong in its memory cgroup. It's slightly risky. If an admin
creates very small mem-cgroup and silly guy runs contentious heavy memory
pressure workload, every tasks are going to lose swap token and then
system may become unresponsive. That's bad.
This patch adds 'memcg' parameter into disable_swap_token(). and if the
parameter doesn't match swap token, VM doesn't disable it.

Two new stats in per-memcg memory.stat which tracks the number of page
faults and number of major page faults.
"pgfault"
"pgmajfault"
They are different from "pgpgin"/"pgpgout" stat which count number of
pages charged/discharged to the cgroup and have no meaning of reading/
writing page to disk.
It is valuable to track the two stats for both measuring application's
performance as well as the efficiency of the kernel page reclaim path.
Counting pagefaults per process is useful, but we also need the aggregated
value since processes are monitored and controlled in cgroup basis in
memcg.
Functional test: check the total number of pgfault/pgmajfault of all
memcgs and compare with global vmstat value:
$ cat /proc/vmstat | grep fault
pgfault 1070751
pgmajfault 553
$ cat /dev/cgroup/memory.stat | grep fault
pgfault 1071138
pgmajfault 553
total_pgfault 1071142
total_pgmajfault 553
$ cat /dev/cgroup/A/memory.stat | grep fault
pgfault 199
pgmajfault 0
total_pgfault 199
total_pgmajfault 0
Performance test: run page fault test(pft) wit 16 thread on faulting in
15G anon pages in 16G container. There is no regression noticed on the

Presently, memory cgroup's direct reclaim frees memory from the current
node. But this has some troubles. Usually when a set of threads works in
a cooperative way, they tend to operate on the same node. So if they hit
limits under memcg they will reclaim memory from themselves, damaging the
active working set.
For example, assume 2 node system which has Node 0 and Node 1 and a memcg
which has 1G limit. After some work, file cache remains and the usages
are
Node 0: 1M
Node 1: 998M.
and run an application on Node 0, it will eat its foot before freeing
unnecessary file caches.
This patch adds round-robin for NUMA and adds equal pressure to each node.
When using cpuset's spread memory feature, this will work very well.
But yes, a better algorithm is needed.

The global kswapd scans per-zone LRU and reclaims pages regardless of the
cgroup. It breaks memory isolation since one cgroup can end up reclaiming
pages from another cgroup. Instead we should rely on memcg-aware target
reclaim including per-memcg kswapd and soft_limit hierarchical reclaim under
memory pressure.
In the global background reclaim, we do soft reclaim before scanning the
per-zone LRU. However, the return value is ignored. This patch is the first
step to skip shrink_zone() if soft_limit reclaim does enough work.
This is part of the effort which tries to reduce reclaiming pages in global
LRU in memcg. The per-memcg background reclaim patchset further enhances the
per-cgroup targetting reclaim, which I should have V4 posted shortly.
Try running multiple memory intensive workloads within seperate memcgs. Watch
the counters of soft_steal in memory.stat.
$ cat /dev/cgroup/A/memory.stat | grep 'soft'
soft_steal 240000
soft_scan 240000
total_soft_steal 240000
total_soft_scan 240000

We would like to skip shrink_zone() if soft_limit reclaim does enough

start with counting the nr_scanned and nr_reclaimed from soft_limit
reclaim into the global scan_control.

Except it does this atomically, so there's no possibility for the "add" to

If memory cgroups are enabled, then the memory cgroup charge is also moved
from the old page to the new.
This function is currently used by fuse to move pages into the page cache
on read, instead of copying the page contents.

In the current implementation mem_cgroup_end_migration() decides whether
the page migration has succeeded or not by checking "oldpage->mapping".
But if we are tring to migrate a shmem swapcache, the page->mapping of it
is NULL from the begining, so the check would be invalid. As a result,
mem_cgroup_end_migration() assumes the migration has succeeded even if
it's not, so "newpage" would be freed while it's not uncharged.
This patch fixes it by passing mem_cgroup_end_migration() the result of
the page migration.

rss and swap space is used instead. This is a better indication of the
amount of memory that will be freeable if the oom killed task is chosen
and subsequently exits. This helps specifically in cases where KDE or
GNOME is chosen for oom kill on desktop systems instead of a memory
hogging task.
The baseline for the heuristic is a proportion of memory that each task is
currently using in memory plus swap compared to the amount of "allowable"
memory. "Allowable," in this sense, means the system-wide resources for
unconstrained oom conditions, the set of mempolicy nodes, the mems
attached to current's cpuset, or a memory controller's limit. The
proportion is given on a scale of 0 (never kill) to 1000 (always kill),
roughly meaning that if a task has a badness() score of 500 that the task
consumes approximately 50% of allowable memory resident in RAM or in swap
space.
The proportion is always relative to the amount of "allowable" memory and
not the total amount of RAM systemwide so that mempolicies and cpusets may
operate in isolation; they shall not need to know the true size of the
machine on which they are running if they are bound to a specific set of
nodes or mems, respectively.
Root tasks are given 3% extra memory just like __vm_enough_memory()
provides in LSMs. In the event of two tasks consuming similar amounts of
memory, it is generally better to save root's task.
Because of the change in the badness() heuristic's baseline, it is also
necessary to introduce a new user interface to tune it. It's not possible
to redefine the meaning of /proc/pid/oom_adj with a new scale since the
ABI cannot be changed for backward compatability. Instead, a new tunable,
/proc/pid/oom_score_adj, is added that ranges from -1000 to +1000. It may
be used to polarize the heuristic such that certain tasks are never
considered for oom kill while others may always be considered. The value
is added directly into the badness() score so a value of -500, for
example, means to discount 50% of its memory consumption in comparison to
other tasks either on the system, bound to the mempolicy, in the cpuset,
or sharing the same memory controller.
/proc/pid/oom_adj is changed so that its meaning is rescaled into the
units used by /proc/pid/oom_score_adj, and vice versa. Changing one of
these per-task tunables will rescale the value of the other to an
equivalent meaning. Although /proc/pid/oom_adj was originally defined as
a bitshift on the badness score, it now shares the same linear growth as
/proc/pid/oom_score_adj but with different granularity. This is required
so the ABI is not broken with userspace applications and allows oom_adj to
be deprecated for future removal.

Since 2.6.28 zone->prev_priority is unused. Then it can be removed
safely. It reduce stack usage slightly.
Now I have to say that I'm sorry. 2 years ago, I thought prev_priority
can be integrate again, it's useful. but four (or more) times trying
haven't got good performance number. Thus I give up such approach.
The rest of this changelog is notes on prev_priority and why it existed in
the first place and why it might be not necessary any more. This information
is based heavily on discussions between Andrew Morton, Rik van Riel and
Kosaki Motohiro who is heavily quotes from.
Historically prev_priority was important because it determined when the VM
would start unmapping PTE pages. i.e. there are no balances of note within
the VM, Anon vs File and Mapped vs Unmapped. Without prev_priority, there
is a potential risk of unnecessarily increasing minor faults as a large
amount of read activity of use-once pages could push mapped pages to the
end of the LRU and get unmapped.
There is no proof this is still a problem but currently it is not considered
to be. Active files are not deactivated if the active file list is smaller
than the inactive list reducing the liklihood that file-mapped pages are
being pushed off the LRU and referenced executable pages are kept on the
active list to avoid them getting pushed out by read activity.
Even if it is a problem, prev_priority prev_priority wouldn't works
nowadays. First of all, current vmscan still a lot of UP centric code. it
expose some weakness on some dozens CPUs machine. I think we need more and
more improvement.
The problem is, current vmscan mix up per-system-pressure, per-zone-pressure
and per-task-pressure a bit. example, prev_priority try to boost priority to
other concurrent priority. but if the another task have mempolicy restriction,
it is unnecessary, but also makes wrong big latency and exceeding reclaim.
per-task based priority + prev_priority adjustment make the emulation of
per-system pressure. but it have two issue 1) too rough and brutal emulation
2) we need per-zone pressure, not per-system.
Another example, currently DEF_PRIORITY is 12. it mean the lru rotate about
2 cycle (1/4096 + 1/2048 + 1/1024 + .. + 1) before invoking OOM-Killer.
but if 10,0000 thrreads enter DEF_PRIORITY reclaim at the same time, the
system have higher memory pressure than priority==0 (1/4096*10,000 > 2).
prev_priority can't solve such multithreads workload issue. In other word,
prev_priority concept assume the sysmtem don't have lots threads."

FILE_MAPPED per memcg of migrated file cache is not properly updated,
because our hook in page_add_file_rmap() can't know to which memcg
FILE_MAPPED should be counted.
Basically, this patch is for fixing the bug but includes some big changes
to fix up other messes.
Now, at migrating mapped file, events happen in following sequence.
1. allocate a new page.
2. get memcg of an old page.
3. charge ageinst a new page before migration. But at this point,
no changes to new page's page_cgroup, no commit for the charge.
(IOW, PCG_USED bit is not set.)
4. page migration replaces radix-tree, old-page and new-page.
5. page migration remaps the new page if the old page was mapped.
6. Here, the new page is unlocked.
7. memcg commits the charge for newpage, Mark the new page's page_cgroup
as PCG_USED.
Because "commit" happens after page-remap, we can count FILE_MAPPED
at "5", because we should avoid to trust page_cgroup->mem_cgroup.
if PCG_USED bit is unset.
(Note: memcg's LRU removal code does that but LRU-isolation logic is used
for helping it. When we overwrite page_cgroup->mem_cgroup, page_cgroup is
not on LRU or page_cgroup->mem_cgroup is NULL.)
We can lose file_mapped accounting information at 5 because FILE_MAPPED
is updated only when mapcount changes 0->1. So we should catch it.
BTW, historically, above implemntation comes from migration-failure
of anonymous page. Because we charge both of old page and new page
with mapcount=0, we can't catch
- the page is really freed before remap.
- migration fails but it's freed before remap
or .....corner cases.
New migration sequence with memcg is:
1. allocate a new page.
2. mark PageCgroupMigration to the old page.
3. charge against a new page onto the old page's memcg. (here, new page's pc
is marked as PageCgroupUsed.)
4. page migration replaces radix-tree, page table, etc...
5. At remapping, new page's page_cgroup is now makrked as "USED"
We can catch 0->1 event and FILE_MAPPED will be properly updated.
And we can catch SWAPOUT event after unlock this and freeing this
page by unmap() can be caught.
7. Clear PageCgroupMigration of the old page.
So, FILE_MAPPED will be correctly updated.
Then, for what MIGRATION flag is ?
Without it, at migration failure, we may have to charge old page again
because it may be fully unmapped. "charge" means that we have to dive into
memory reclaim or something complated. So, it's better to avoid
charge it again. Before this patch, __commit_charge() was working for
both of the old/new page and fixed up all. But this technique has some
racy condtion around FILE_MAPPED and SWAPOUT etc...
Now, the kernel use MIGRATION flag and don't uncharge old page until
the end of migration.
I hope this change will make memcg's page migration much simpler. This
page migration has caused several troubles. Worth to add a flag for
simplification.

For now, we have global isolation vs. memory control group isolation, do
not allow the reclaim entry function to set an arbitrary page isolation
callback, we do not need that flexibility.
And since we already pass around the group descriptor for the memory
control group isolation case, just use it to decide which one of the two
isolator functions to use.
The decisions can be merged into nearby branches, so no extra cost there.
In fact, we save the indirect calls.

In current page-fault code,
handle_mm_fault()
-> ...
-> mem_cgroup_charge()
-> map page or handle error.
-> check return code.
If page fault's return code is VM_FAULT_OOM, page_fault_out_of_memory() is
called. But if it's caused by memcg, OOM should have been already
invoked.
Then, I added a patch: a636b327f7. That
patch records last_oom_jiffies for memcg's sub-hierarchy and prevents
page_fault_out_of_memory from being invoked in near future.
But Nishimura-san reported that check by jiffies is not enough when the
system is terribly heavy.
This patch changes memcg's oom logic as.
* If memcg causes OOM-kill, continue to retry.
* remove jiffies check which is used now.
* add memcg-oom-lock which works like perzone oom lock.
* If current is killed(as a process), bypass charge.
Something more sophisticated can be added but this pactch does
fundamental things.
TODO:
- add oom notifier
- add permemcg disable-oom-kill flag and freezer at oom.
- more chances for wake up oom waiter (when changing memory limit etc..)

In global VM, FILE_MAPPED is used but memcg uses MAPPED_FILE. This makes
grep difficult. Replace memcg's MAPPED_FILE with FILE_MAPPED
And in global VM, mapped shared memory is accounted into FILE_MAPPED.
But memcg doesn't. fix it.
Note:
page_is_file_cache() just checks SwapBacked or not.
So, we need to check PageAnon.
