We are supposed to take one css reference per each memory page and per
each swap entry accounted to a memory cgroup. However, during task
charges migration we take a reference to the destination cgroup twice
per each swap entry: first in mem_cgroup_do_precharge()->try_charge()
and then in mem_cgroup_move_swap_account(), permanently leaking the
destination cgroup.
The hunk taking the second reference seems to be a leftover from the
pre-00501b531c472 ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite charge API") era. Remove it
to fix the leak.

Commit 3e32cb2e0a12 ("mm: memcontrol: lockless page counters")
accidentally switched the soft limit default from infinity to zero,
which turns all memcgs with even a single page into soft limit excessors
and engages soft limit reclaim on all of them during global memory
pressure. This makes global reclaim generally more aggressive, but also
inverts the meaning of existing soft limit configurations where unset
soft limits are usually more generous than set ones.

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.

oom_kill.c assumes that PF_EXITING task should exit and free the memory
soon. This is wrong in many ways and one important case is the coredump.
A task can sleep in exit_mm() "forever" while the coredumping sub-thread
can need more memory.
Change the PF_EXITING checks to take SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP into account,
we add the new trivial helper for that.
Note: this is only the first step, this patch doesn't try to solve other
problems. The SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP check is obviously racy, a task can
participate in coredump after it was already observed in PF_EXITING state,
so TIF_MEMDIE (which also blocks oom-killer) still can be wrongly set.
fatal_signal_pending() can be true because of SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP so
out_of_memory() and mem_cgroup_out_of_memory() shouldn't blindly trust it.
And even the name/usage of the new helper is confusing, an exiting thread
can only free its ->mm if it is the only/last task in thread group.

It isn't supposed to stack, so turn it into a bit-field to save 4 bytes on
the task_struct.
Also, remove the memcg_stop/resume_kmem_account helpers - it is clearer to
set/clear the flag inline. Regarding the overwhelming comment to the
helpers, which is removed by this patch too, we already have a compact yet
accurate explanation in memcg_schedule_cache_create, no need in yet
another one.

__memcg_kmem_get_cache can recurse if it calls kmalloc (which it does if
the cgroup's kmem cache doesn't exist), because kmalloc may call
__memcg_kmem_get_cache internally again. To avoid the recursion, we use
the task_struct->memcg_kmem_skip_account flag.
However, there's no need checking the flag in memcg_kmem_newpage_charge,
because there's no way how this function could result in recursion, if
called from memcg_kmem_get_cache. So let's remove the redundant code.

task_struct->memcg_kmem_skip_account was initially introduced to avoid
recursion during kmem cache creation: memcg_kmem_get_cache, which is
called by kmem_cache_alloc to determine the per-memcg cache to account
allocation to, may issue lazy cache creation if the needed cache doesn't
exist, which means issuing yet another kmem_cache_alloc. We can't just
pass a flag to the nested kmem_cache_alloc disabling kmem accounting,
because there are hidden allocations, e.g. in INIT_WORK. So we
introduced a flag on the task_struct, memcg_kmem_skip_account, making
memcg_kmem_get_cache return immediately.
By its nature, the flag may also be used to disable accounting for
allocations shared among different cgroups, and currently it is used this
way in memcg_activate_kmem. Using it like this looks like abusing it to
me. If we want to disable accounting for some allocations (which we will
definitely want one day), we should either add GFP_NO_MEMCG or GFP_MEMCG
flag in order to blacklist/whitelist some allocations.
For now, let's simply remove memcg_stop/resume_kmem_account from
memcg_activate_kmem.

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 d7365e783edb ("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
version (4.9) doesn't exploit this type undefined behavior but Sasha has
reported the following:
UBSan: Undefined behaviour in mm/rmap.c:1084:2

While moving charges from one memcg to another, page stat updates must
acquire the old memcg's move_lock to prevent double accounting. That
situation is denoted by an increased memcg->move_accounting. However, the
charge moving code declares this way too early for now, even before
summing up the RSS and pre-allocating destination charges.
Shorten this slowpath mode by increasing memcg->move_accounting only right
before walking the task's address space with the intention of actually
moving the pages.

Let's use generic slab_start/next/stop for showing memcg caches info. In
contrast to the current implementation, this will work even if all memcg
caches' info doesn't fit into a seq buffer (a page), plus it simply looks
neater.
Actually, the main reason I do this isn't mere cleanup. I'm going to zap
the memcg_slab_caches list, because I find it useless provided we have the
slab_caches list, and this patch is a step in this direction.
It should be noted that before this patch an attempt to read
memory.kmem.slabinfo of a cgroup that doesn't have kmem limit set resulted
in -EIO, while after this patch it will silently show nothing except the
header, but I don't think it will frustrate anyone.

mem_cgroup_reclaimable() checks whether a cgroup has reclaimable pages on
*any* NUMA node. However, the only place where it's called is
mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim(), which tries to reclaim memory from a *specific*
zone. So the way it is used is incorrect - it will return true even if
the cgroup doesn't have pages on the zone we're scanning.
I think we can get rid of this check completely, because
mem_cgroup_shrink_node_zone(), which is called by
mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim() if mem_cgroup_reclaimable() returns true, is
equivalent to shrink_lruvec(), which exits almost immediately if the
lruvec passed to it is empty. So there's no need to optimize anything
here. Besides, we don't have such a check in the general scan path
(shrink_zone) either.

pc->mem_cgroup had to be left intact after uncharge for the final LRU
removal, and !PCG_USED indicated whether the page was uncharged. But
since commit 0a31bc97c80c ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API") pages
are uncharged after the final LRU removal. Uncharge can simply clear
the pointer and the PCG_USED/PageCgroupUsed sites can test that instead.
Because this is the last page_cgroup flag, this patch reduces the memcg
per-page overhead to a single pointer.

PCG_MEM is a remnant from an earlier version of 0a31bc97c80c ("mm:
memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API"), used to tell whether migration cleared
a charge while leaving pc->mem_cgroup valid and PCG_USED set. But in the
final version, mem_cgroup_migrate() directly uncharges the source page,
rendering this distinction unnecessary. Remove it.

Now that mem_cgroup_swapout() fully uncharges the page, every page that is
still in use when reaching mem_cgroup_uncharge() is known to carry both
the memory and the memory+swap charge. Simplify the uncharge path and
remove the PCG_MEMSW page flag accordingly.

This series gets rid of the remaining page_cgroup flags, thus cutting the
memcg per-page overhead down to one pointer.
This patch (of 4):
mem_cgroup_swapout() is called with exclusive access to the page at the
end of the page's lifetime. Instead of clearing the PCG_MEMSW flag and
deferring the uncharge, just do it right away. This allows follow-up
patches to simplify the uncharge code.

Commit 7512102cf64d ("memcg: fix GPF when cgroup removal races with last
exit") added a pc->mem_cgroup reset into mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() to
prevent a crash where an anon page gets uncharged on unmap, the memcg is
released, and then the final LRU isolation on free dereferences the
stale pc->mem_cgroup pointer.
But since commit 0a31bc97c80c ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API"),
pages are only uncharged AFTER that final LRU isolation, which
guarantees the memcg's lifetime until then. pc->mem_cgroup now only
needs to be reset for swapcache readahead pages.
Update the comment and callsite requirements accordingly.

If we fail to reclaim anything from a cgroup during a soft reclaim pass
we want to get the next largest cgroup exceeding its soft limit. To
achieve this, we should obviously remove the current group from the tree
and then pick the largest group. Currently we have a weird loop instead.
Let's simplify it.

On cgroup deletion, outstanding page cache charges are moved to the parent
group so that they're not lost and can be reclaimed during pressure
on/inside said parent. But this reparenting is fairly tricky and its
synchroneous nature has led to several lock-ups in the past.
Since c2931b70a32c ("cgroup: iterate cgroup_subsys_states directly") css
iterators now also include offlined css, so memcg iterators can be changed
to include offlined children during reclaim of a group, and leftover cache
can just stay put.
There is a slight change of behavior in that charges of deleted groups no
longer show up as local charges in the parent. But they are still
included in the parent's hierarchical statistics.

As charges now pin the css explicitely, there is no more need for kmemcg
to acquire a proxy reference for outstanding pages during offlining, or
maintain state to identify such "dead" groups.
This was the last user of the uncharge functions' return values, so remove
them as well.

Charges currently pin the css indirectly by playing tricks during
css_offline(): user pages stall the offlining process until all of them
have been reparented, whereas kmemcg acquires a keep-alive reference if
outstanding kernel pages are detected at that point.
In preparation for removing all this complexity, make the pinning explicit
and acquire a css references for every charged page.

The memcg reclaim iterators use a complicated weak reference scheme to
prevent pinning cgroups indefinitely in the absence of memory pressure.
However, during the ongoing cgroup core rework, css lifetime has been
decoupled such that a pinned css no longer interferes with removal of
the user-visible cgroup, and all this complexity is now unnecessary.

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

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 0a31bc97c80c ("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:
# Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol
old: 0.12% 0.11% filemapstress [kernel.kallsyms] [k] page_remove_rmap
new: 0.12% 0.08% filemapstress [kernel.kallsyms] [k] page_remove_rmap

memcg_can_account_kmem() returns true iff
!mem_cgroup_disabled() && !mem_cgroup_is_root(memcg) &&
memcg_kmem_is_active(memcg);
To begin with the !mem_cgroup_is_root(memcg) check is useless, because one
can't enable kmem accounting for the root cgroup (mem_cgroup_write()
returns EINVAL on an attempt to set the limit on the root cgroup).
Furthermore, the !mem_cgroup_disabled() check also seems to be redundant.
The point is memcg_can_account_kmem() is called from three places:
mem_cgroup_salbinfo_read(), __memcg_kmem_get_cache(), and
__memcg_kmem_newpage_charge(). The latter two functions are only invoked
if memcg_kmem_enabled() returns true, which implies that the memory cgroup
subsystem is enabled. And mem_cgroup_slabinfo_read() shows the output of
memory.kmem.slabinfo, which won't exist if the memory cgroup is completely
disabled.
So let's substitute all the calls to memcg_can_account_kmem() with plain
memcg_kmem_is_active(), and kill the former.

In a memcg with even just moderate cache pressure, success rates for
transparent huge page allocations drop to zero, wasting a lot of effort
that the allocator puts into assembling these pages.
The reason for this is that the memcg reclaim code was never designed for
higher-order charges. It reclaims in small batches until there is room
for at least one page. Huge page charges only succeed when these batches
add up over a series of huge faults, which is unlikely under any
significant load involving order-0 allocations in the group.
Remove that loop on the memcg side in favor of passing the actual reclaim
goal to direct reclaim, which is already set up and optimized to meet
higher-order goals efficiently.
This brings memcg's THP policy in line with the system policy: if the
allocator painstakingly assembles a hugepage, memcg will at least make an
honest effort to charge it. As a result, transparent hugepage allocation
rates amid cache activity are drastically improved:
vanilla patched
pgalloc 4717530.80 ( +0.00%) 4451376.40 ( -5.64%)
pgfault 491370.60 ( +0.00%) 225477.40 ( -54.11%)
pgmajfault 2.00 ( +0.00%) 1.80 ( -6.67%)
thp_fault_alloc 0.00 ( +0.00%) 531.60 (+100.00%)
thp_fault_fallback 749.00 ( +0.00%) 217.40 ( -70.88%)
[ Note: this may in turn increase memory consumption from internal
fragmentation, which is an inherent risk of transparent hugepages.
Some setups may have to adjust the memcg limits accordingly to
accomodate this - or, if the machine is already packed to capacity,
disable the transparent huge page feature. ]

When attempting to charge pages, we first charge the memory counter and
then the memory+swap counter. If one of the counters is at its limit, we
enter reclaim, but if it's the memory+swap counter, reclaim shouldn't swap
because that wouldn't change the situation. However, if the counters have
the same limits, we never get to the memory+swap limit. To know whether
reclaim should swap or not, there is a state flag that indicates whether
the limits are equal and whether hitting the memory limit implies hitting
the memory+swap limit.
Just try the memory+swap counter first.

`While growing per memcg caches arrays, we jump between memcontrol.c and
slab_common.c in a weird way:
memcg_alloc_cache_id - memcontrol.c
memcg_update_all_caches - slab_common.c
memcg_update_cache_size - memcontrol.c
There's absolutely no reason why memcg_update_cache_size can't live on the
slab's side though. So let's move it there and settle it comfortably amid
per-memcg cache allocation functions.
Besides, this patch cleans this function up a bit, removing all the
useless comments from it, and renames it to memcg_update_cache_params to
conform to memcg_alloc/free_cache_params, which we already have in
slab_common.c.
