2012-12-18slab: propagate tunable valuesGlauber Costa1-0/+12
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() Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <glommer@parallels.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@redhat.com> Cc: Greg Thelen <gthelen@google.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: JoonSoo Kim <js1304@gmail.com> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Suleiman Souhlal <suleiman@google.com> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2012-12-18memcg: aggregate memcg cache values in slabinfoGlauber Costa1-0/+27
When we create caches in memcgs, we need to display their usage information somewhere. We'll adopt a scheme similar to /proc/meminfo, with aggregate totals shown in the global file, and per-group information stored in the group itself. For the time being, only reads are allowed in the per-group cache.

2012-12-18memcg: destroy memcg cachesGlauber Costa1-0/+23
Implement destruction of memcg caches. Right now, only caches where our reference counter is the last remaining are deleted. If there are any other reference counters around, we just leave the caches lying around until they go away. When that happens, a destruction function is called from the cache code. Caches are only destroyed in process context, so we queue them up for later processing in the general case.

2012-12-18slab/slub: consider a memcg parameter in kmem_create_cacheGlauber Costa1-4/+19
Allow a memcg parameter to be passed during cache creation. When the slub allocator is being used, it will only merge caches that belong to the same memcg. We'll do this by scanning the global list, and then translating the cache to a memcg-specific cache Default function is created as a wrapper, passing NULL to the memcg version. We only merge caches that belong to the same 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.

2012-10-31slab: Ignore internal flags in cache creationGlauber Costa1-0/+25
Some flags are used internally by the allocators for management purposes. One example of that is the CFLGS_OFF_SLAB flag that slab uses to mark that the metadata for that cache is stored outside of the slab. No cache should ever pass those as a creation flags. We can just ignore this bit if it happens to be passed (such as when duplicating a cache in the kmem memcg patches). Because such flags can vary from allocator to allocator, we allow them to make their own decisions on that, defining SLAB_AVAILABLE_FLAGS with all flags that are valid at creation time. Allocators that doesn't have any specific flag requirement should define that to mean all flags. Common code will mask out all flags not belonging to that set.

With all the infrastructure in place, we can now have slabinfo_show done from slab_common.c.

2012-10-24mm/sl[au]b: Move print_slabinfo_header to slab_common.cGlauber Costa1-2/+0
The header format is highly similar between slab and slub. The main difference lays in the fact that slab may optionally have statistics added here in case of CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG, while the slub will stick them somewhere else. By making sure that information conditionally lives inside a globally-visible CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB switch, we can move the header printing to a common location.

This patch moves all the common machinery to slabinfo processing to slab_common.c.
