2023-06-23mm/memcontrol: do not tweak node in mem_cgroup_init()Haifeng Xu1-2/+1
mem_cgroup_init() request for allocations from each possible node, and it's used to be a problem because NODE_DATA is not allocated for offline node. Things have already changed since commit 09f49dca570a9 ("mm: handle uninitialized numa nodes gracefully"), so it's unnecessary to check for !node_online nodes here.

2023-06-19mm: ptep_get() conversionRyan Roberts1-2/+2
Convert all instances of direct pte_t* dereferencing to instead use ptep_get() helper. This means that by default, the accesses change from a C dereference to a READ_ONCE(). This is technically the correct thing to do since where pgtables are modified by HW (for access/dirty) they are volatile and therefore we should always ensure READ_ONCE() semantics. But more importantly, by always using the helper, it can be overridden by the architecture to fully encapsulate the contents of the pte. Arch code is deliberately not converted, as the arch code knows best. It is intended that arch code (arm64) will override the default with its own implementation that can (e.g.) hide certain bits from the core code, or determine young/dirty status by mixing in state from another source. Conversion was done using Coccinelle: ---- // $ make coccicheck \ // COCCI=ptepget.cocci \ // SPFLAGS="--include-headers" \ // MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ pte_t *v; @@ - *v + ptep_get(v) ---- Then reviewed and hand-edited to avoid multiple unnecessary calls to ptep_get(), instead opting to store the result of a single call in a variable, where it is correct to do so. This aims to negate any cost of READ_ONCE() and will benefit arch-overrides that may be more complex. Included is a fix for an issue in an earlier version of this patch that was pointed out by kernel test robot. The issue arose because config MMU=n elides definition of the ptep helper functions, including ptep_get(). HUGETLB_PAGE=n configs still define a simple huge_ptep_clear_flush() for linking purposes, which dereferences the ptep. So when both configs are disabled, this caused a build error because ptep_get() is not defined. Fix by continuing to do a direct dereference when MMU=n. This is safe because for this config the arch code cannot be trying to virtualize the ptes because none of the ptep helpers are defined.

2023-06-09mm/memcontrol: export memcg.swap watermark via sysfs for v2 memcgLars R. Damerow1-0/+13
This patch is similar to commit 8e20d4b33266 ("mm/memcontrol: export memcg->watermark via sysfs for v2 memcg"), but exports the swap counter's watermark. We allocate jobs to our compute farm using heuristics determined by memory and swap usage from previous jobs. Tracking the peak swap usage for new jobs is important for determining when jobs are exceeding their expected bounds, or when our baseline metrics are getting outdated. Our toolset was written to use the "memory.memsw.max_usage_in_bytes" file in cgroups v1, and altering it to poll cgroups v2's "memory.swap.current" would give less accurate results as well as add complication to the code. Having this watermark exposed in sysfs is much preferred. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230524181734.125696-1-lars@pixar.com Signed-off-by: Lars R.

2023-06-09memcg, oom: remove explicit wakeup in mem_cgroup_oom_synchronize()Haifeng Xu1-8/+1
Before commit 29ef680ae7c2 ("memcg, oom: move out_of_memory back to the charge path"), all memcg oom killers were delayed to page fault path. And the explicit wakeup is used in this case: thread A: ... if (locked) { // complete oom-kill, hold the lock mem_cgroup_oom_unlock(memcg); ... } ... thread B: ... if (locked && !memcg->oom_kill_disable) { ... } else { schedule(); // can't acquire the lock ... } ... The reason is that thread A kicks off the OOM-killer, which leads to wakeups from the uncharges of the exiting task. But thread B is not guaranteed to see them if it enters the OOM path after the OOM kills but before thread A releases the lock. Now only oom_kill_disable case is handled from the #PF path. In that case it is userspace to trigger the wake up not the #PF path itself. All potential paths to free some charges are responsible to call memcg_oom_recover() , so the explicit wakeup is not needed in the mem_cgroup_oom_synchronize() path which doesn't release any memory itself.

mem_cgroup_oom_synchronize() is only used when the memcg oom handling is handed over to the edge of the #PF path. Since commit 29ef680ae7c2 ("memcg, oom: move out_of_memory back to the charge path") this is the case only when the kernel memcg oom killer is disabled (current->memcg_in_oom is only set if memcg->oom_kill_disable). Therefore a check for oom_kill_disable in mem_cgroup_oom_synchronize() is not required.

2023-06-09memcg: calculate root usage from global stateYosry Ahmed1-19/+5
Currently, we approximate the root usage by adding the memcg stats for anon, file, and conditionally swap (for memsw). To read the memcg stats we need to invoke an rstat flush. rstat flushes can be expensive, they scale with the number of cpus and cgroups on the system. mem_cgroup_usage() is called by memcg_events()->mem_cgroup_threshold() with irqs disabled, so such an expensive operation with irqs disabled can cause problems. Instead, approximate the root usage from global state. This is not 100% accurate, but the root usage has always been ill-defined anyway.

2023-06-09memcg: dump memory.stat during cgroup OOM for v1Yosry Ahmed1-25/+35
Patch series "memcg: OOM log improvements", v2. This short patch series brings back some cgroup v1 stats in OOM logs that were unnecessarily changed before. It also makes memcg OOM logs less reliant on printk() internals. This patch (of 2): Commit c8713d0b2312 ("mm: memcontrol: dump memory.stat during cgroup OOM") made sure we dump all the stats in memory.stat during a cgroup OOM, but it also introduced a slight behavioral change. The code used to print the non-hierarchical v1 cgroup stats for the entire cgroup subtree, now it only prints the v2 cgroup stats for the cgroup under OOM. For cgroup v1 users, this introduces a few problems: (a) The non-hierarchical stats of the memcg under OOM are no longer shown. (b) A couple of v1-only stats (e.g. pgpgin, pgpgout) are no longer shown. (c) We show the list of cgroup v2 stats, even in cgroup v1. This list of stats is not tracked with v1 in mind. While most of the stats seem to be working on v1, there may be some stats that are not fully or correctly tracked. Although OOM log is not set in stone, we should not change it for no reason. When upgrading the kernel version to a version including commit c8713d0b2312 ("mm: memcontrol: dump memory.stat during cgroup OOM"), these behavioral changes are noticed in cgroup v1. The fix is simple. Commit c8713d0b2312 ("mm: memcontrol: dump memory.stat during cgroup OOM") separated stats formatting from stats display for v2, to reuse the stats formatting in the OOM logs. Do the same for v1. Move the v2 specific formatting from memory_stat_format() to memcg_stat_format(), add memcg1_stat_format() for v1, and make memory_stat_format() select between them based on cgroup version. Since memory_stat_show() now works for both v1 & v2, drop memcg_stat_show().

2023-06-09memcg: use seq_buf_do_printk() with mem_cgroup_print_oom_meminfo()Yosry Ahmed1-13/+14
Currently, we format all the memcg stats into a buffer in mem_cgroup_print_oom_meminfo() and use pr_info() to dump it to the logs. However, this buffer is large in size. Although it is currently working as intended, ther is a dependency between the memcg stats buffer and the printk record size limit. If we add more stats in the future and the buffer becomes larger than the printk record size limit, or if the prink record size limit is reduced, the logs may be truncated. It is safer to use seq_buf_do_printk(), which will automatically break up the buffer at line breaks and issue small printk() calls. Refactor the code to move the seq_buf from memory_stat_format() to its callers, and use seq_buf_do_printk() to print the seq_buf in mem_cgroup_print_oom_meminfo().

A memcg pointer in the percpu stock can be accessed by drain_all_stock() from another cpu in a lockless way. In theory it might lead to an issue, similar to the one which has been discovered with stock->cached_objcg, where the pointer was zeroed between the check for being NULL and dereferencing. In this case the issue is unlikely a real problem, but to make it bulletproof and similar to stock->cached_objcg, let's annotate all accesses to stock->cached with READ_ONCE()/WTRITE_ONCE().

2023-04-18memcg: page_cgroup_ino() get memcg from the page's folioYosry Ahmed1-1/+2
In a kernel with added WARN_ON_ONCE(PageTail) in page_memcg_check(), we observed a warning from page_cgroup_ino() when reading /proc/kpagecgroup. This warning was added to catch fragile reads of a page memcg. Make page_cgroup_ino() get memcg from the page's folio using folio_memcg_check(): that gives it the correct memcg for each page of a folio, so is the right fix. Note that page_folio() is racy, the page's folio can change from under us, but the entire function is racy and documented as such. I dithered between the right fix and the safer "fix": it's unlikely but conceivable that some userspace has learnt that /proc/kpagecgroup gives no memcg on tail pages, and compensates for that in some (racy) way: so continuing to give no memcg on tails, without warning, might be safer. But hwpoison_filter_task(), the only other user of page_cgroup_ino(), persuaded me. It looks as if it currently leaves out tail pages of the selected memcg, by mistake: whereas hwpoison_inject() uses compound_head() and expects the tails to be included. So hwpoison testing coverage has probably been restricted by the wrong output from page_cgroup_ino() (if that memcg filter is used at all): in the short term, it might be safer not to enable wider coverage there, but long term we would regret that. This is based on a patch originally written by Hugh Dickins and retains most of the original commit log [1] The patch was changed to use folio_memcg_check(page_folio(page)) instead of page_memcg_check(compound_head(page)) based on discussions with Matthew Wilcox; where he stated that callers of page_memcg_check() should stop using it due to the ambiguity around tail pages -- instead they should use folio_memcg_check() and handle tail pages themselves.

2023-04-18memcg v1: provide read access to memory.pressure_levelFlorian Schmidt1-0/+11
cgroups v1 has a unique way of setting up memory pressure notifications: the user opens "memory.pressure_level" of the cgroup they want to monitor for pressure, then open "cgroup.event_control" and write the fd (among other things) to that file. memory.pressure_level has no other use, specifically it does not support any read or write operations. Consequently, no handlers are provided, and cgroup_file_mode() sets the permissions to 000. However, to actually use the mechanism, the subscribing user must have read access to the file and open the fd for reading, see memcg_write_event_control(). This is all fine as long as the subscribing process runs as root and is otherwise unconfined by further restrictions. However, if you add strict access controls such as selinux, the permission bits will be enforced, and opening memory.pressure_level for reading will fail, preventing the process from subscribing, even as root. To work around this issue, introduce a dummy read handler. When memory.pressure_level is created, cgroup_file_mode() will notice the existence of a handler, and therefore add read permissions to the file.

Move the call above the RCU read section to make it non-atomic. Flushing is an expensive operation that scales with the number of cpus and the number of cgroups in the system, so avoid doing it atomically where possible. Since workingset_refault() is the only caller of mem_cgroup_flush_stats_atomic_ratelimited(), just make it non-atomic, and rename it to mem_cgroup_flush_stats_ratelimited().

2023-04-18memcg: sleep during flushing stats in safe contextsYosry Ahmed1-9/+36
Currently, all contexts that flush memcg stats do so with sleeping not allowed. Some of these contexts are perfectly safe to sleep in, such as reading cgroup files from userspace or the background periodic flusher. Flushing is an expensive operation that scales with the number of cpus and the number of cgroups in the system, so avoid doing it atomically where possible. Refactor the code to make mem_cgroup_flush_stats() non-atomic (aka sleepable), and provide a separate atomic version. The atomic version is used in reclaim, refault, writeback, and in mem_cgroup_usage(). All other code paths are left to use the non-atomic version. This includes callbacks for userspace reads and the periodic flusher. Since refault is the only caller of mem_cgroup_flush_stats_ratelimited(), change it to mem_cgroup_flush_stats_atomic_ratelimited(). Reclaim and refault code paths are modified to do non-atomic flushing in separate later patches -- so it will eventually be changed back to mem_cgroup_flush_stats_ratelimited().

2023-04-18memcg: replace stats_flush_lock with an atomicYosry Ahmed1-7/+11
As Johannes notes in [1], stats_flush_lock is currently used to: (a) Protect updated to stats_flush_threshold. (b) Protect updates to flush_next_time. (c) Serializes calls to cgroup_rstat_flush() based on those ratelimits. However: 1. stats_flush_threshold is already an atomic 2. flush_next_time is not atomic. The writer is locked, but the reader is lockless. If the reader races with a flush, you could see this: if (time_after(jiffies, flush_next_time)) spin_trylock() flush_next_time = now + delay flush() spin_unlock() spin_trylock() flush_next_time = now + delay flush() spin_unlock() which means we already can get flushes at a higher frequency than FLUSH_TIME during races. But it isn't really a problem. The reader could also see garbled partial updates if the compiler decides to split the write, so it needs at least READ_ONCE and WRITE_ONCE protection. 3. Serializing cgroup_rstat_flush() calls against the ratelimit factors is currently broken because of the race in 2. But the race is actually harmless, all we might get is the occasional earlier flush. If there is no delta, the flush won't do much. And if there is, the flush is justified. So the lock can be removed all together. However, the lock also served the purpose of preventing a thundering herd problem for concurrent flushers, see [2]. Use an atomic instead to serve the purpose of unifying concurrent flushers.

Currently, the only context in which we can invoke an rstat flush from irq context is through mem_cgroup_usage() on the root memcg when called from memcg_check_events(). An rstat flush is an expensive operation that should not be done in irq context, so do not flush stats and use the stale stats in this case. Arguably, usage threshold events are not reliable on the root memcg anyway since its usage is ill-defined.

Patch series "memcg: avoid flushing stats atomically where possible", v3. rstat flushing is an expensive operation that scales with the number of cpus and the number of cgroups in the system. The purpose of this series is to minimize the contexts where we flush stats atomically. Patches 1 and 2 are cleanups requested during reviews of prior versions of this series. Patch 3 makes sure we never try to flush from within an irq context. Patches 4 to 7 introduce separate variants of mem_cgroup_flush_stats() for atomic and non-atomic flushing, and make sure we only flush the stats atomically when necessary. Patch 8 is a slightly tangential optimization that limits the work done by rstat flushing in some scenarios. This patch (of 8): cgroup_rstat_flush_irqsafe() can be a confusing name. It may read as "irqs are disabled throughout", which is what the current implementation does (currently under discussion [1]), but is not the intention. The intention is that this function is safe to call from atomic contexts. Name it as such.

2023-04-18memcg: do not drain charge pcp caches on remote isolated cpusMichal Hocko1-1/+2
Leonardo Bras has noticed that pcp charge cache draining might be disruptive on workloads relying on 'isolated cpus', a feature commonly used on workloads that are sensitive to interruption and context switching such as vRAN and Industrial Control Systems. There are essentially two ways how to approach the issue. We can either allow the pcp cache to be drained on a different rather than a local cpu or avoid remote flushing on isolated cpus. The current pcp charge cache is really optimized for high performance and it always relies to stick with its cpu. That means it only requires local_lock (preempt_disable on !RT) and draining is handed over to pcp WQ to drain locally again. The former solution (remote draining) would require to add an additional locking to prevent local charges from racing with the draining. This adds an atomic operation to otherwise simple arithmetic fast path in the try_charge path. Another concern is that the remote draining can cause a lock contention for the isolated workloads and therefore interfere with it indirectly via user space interfaces. Another option is to avoid draining scheduling on isolated cpus altogether. That means that those remote cpus would keep their charges even after drain_all_stock returns. This is certainly not optimal either but it shouldn't really cause any major problems. In the worst case (many isolated cpus with charges - each of them with MEMCG_CHARGE_BATCH i.e 64 page) the memory consumption of a memcg would be artificially higher than can be immediately used from other cpus. Theoretically a memcg OOM killer could be triggered pre-maturely. Currently it is not really clear whether this is a practical problem though. Tight memcg limit would be really counter productive to cpu isolated workloads pretty much by definition because any memory reclaimed induced by memcg limit could break user space timing expectations as those usually expect execution in the userspace most of the time. Also charges could be left behind on memcg removal. Any future charge on those isolated cpus will drain that pcp cache so this won't be a permanent leak. Considering cons and pros of both approaches this patch is implementing the second option and simply do not schedule remote draining if the target cpu is isolated. This solution is much more simpler. It doesn't add any new locking and it is more more predictable from the user space POV. Should the pre-mature memcg OOM become a real life problem, we can revisit this decision.

Patch series "mm, memcg: cgroup v1 and v2 tunable load/store tearing fixes", v2. This patch series helps to prevent load/store tearing in several cgroup knobs. As kindly pointed out by Michal Hocko and Roman Gushchin , the changelog has been rephrased. Besides, more knobs were checked, according to kind suggestions from Shakeel Butt and Muchun Song. This patch (of 4): The knob for cgroup v2 memory controller: memory.oom.group is not protected by any locking so it can be modified while it is used. This is not an actual problem because races are unlikely (the knob is usually configured long before any workloads hits actual memcg oom) but it is better to use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE to prevent compiler from doing anything funky. The access of memcg->oom_group is lockless, so it can be concurrently set at the same time as we are trying to read it.

2023-02-20mm: change to return bool for isolate_lru_page()Baolin Wang1-2/+2
The isolate_lru_page() can only return 0 or -EBUSY, and most users did not care about the negative error of isolate_lru_page(), except one user in add_page_for_migration(). So we can convert the isolate_lru_page() to return a boolean value, which can help to make the code more clear when checking the return value of isolate_lru_page(). Also convert all users' logic of checking the isolation state. No functional changes intended.

2023-02-16mm: memcontrol: rename memcg_kmem_enabled()Roman Gushchin1-4/+4
Currently there are two kmem-related helper functions with a confusing semantics: memcg_kmem_enabled() and mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled(). The problem is that an obvious expectation memcg_kmem_enabled() == !mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled(), can be false. mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled() is similar to mem_cgroup_disabled(): it returns true only if CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not set or the kmem accounting is disabled using a boot time kernel option "cgroup.memory=nokmem". It never changes the value dynamically. memcg_kmem_enabled() is different: it always returns false until the first non-root memory cgroup will get online (assuming the kernel memory accounting is enabled). It's goal is to improve the performance on systems without the cgroupfs mounted/memory controller enabled or on the systems with only the root memory cgroup. To make things more obvious and avoid potential bugs, let's rename memcg_kmem_enabled() to memcg_kmem_online().

2023-01-31Revert "mm: add nodes= arg to memory.reclaim"Michal Hocko1-54/+13
This reverts commit 12a5d3955227b0d7e04fb793ccceeb2a1dd275c5. Although it is recognized that a finer grained pro-active reclaim is something we need and want the semantic of this implementation is really ambiguous. In a follow up discussion it became clear that there are two essential usecases here. One is to use memory.reclaim to pro-actively reclaim memory and expectation is that the requested and reported amount of memory is uncharged from the memcg. Another usecase focuses on pro-active demotion when the memory is merely shuffled around to demotion targets while the overall charged memory stays unchanged. The current implementation considers demoted pages as reclaimed and that break both usecases. [1] has tried to address the reporting part but there are more issues with that summarized in [2] and follow up emails. Let's revert the nodemask based extension of the memcg pro-active reclaim for now until we settle with a more robust semantic.

2023-01-18mm: multi-gen LRU: per-node lru_gen_folio listsYu Zhao1-0/+16
For each node, memcgs are divided into two generations: the old and the young. For each generation, memcgs are randomly sharded into multiple bins to improve scalability. For each bin, an RCU hlist_nulls is virtually divided into three segments: the head, the tail and the default. An onlining memcg is added to the tail of a random bin in the old generation. The eviction starts at the head of a random bin in the old generation. The per-node memcg generation counter, whose reminder (mod 2) indexes the old generation, is incremented when all its bins become empty. There are four operations: 1. MEMCG_LRU_HEAD, which moves an memcg to the head of a random bin in its current generation (old or young) and updates its "seg" to "head"; 2. MEMCG_LRU_TAIL, which moves an memcg to the tail of a random bin in its current generation (old or young) and updates its "seg" to "tail"; 3. MEMCG_LRU_OLD, which moves an memcg to the head of a random bin in the old generation, updates its "gen" to "old" and resets its "seg" to "default"; 4. MEMCG_LRU_YOUNG, which moves an memcg to the tail of a random bin in the young generation, updates its "gen" to "young" and resets its "seg" to "default". The events that trigger the above operations are: 1. Exceeding the soft limit, which triggers MEMCG_LRU_HEAD; 2. The first attempt to reclaim an memcg below low, which triggers MEMCG_LRU_TAIL; 3. The first attempt to reclaim an memcg below reclaimable size threshold, which triggers MEMCG_LRU_TAIL; 4. The second attempt to reclaim an memcg below reclaimable size threshold, which triggers MEMCG_LRU_YOUNG; 5. Attempting to reclaim an memcg below min, which triggers MEMCG_LRU_YOUNG; 6. Finishing the aging on the eviction path, which triggers MEMCG_LRU_YOUNG; 7. Offlining an memcg, which triggers MEMCG_LRU_OLD. Note that memcg LRU only applies to global reclaim, and the round-robin incrementing of their max_seq counters ensures the eventual fairness to all eligible memcgs. For memcg reclaim, it still relies on mem_cgroup_iter().

2023-01-18mm: memcontrol: deprecate charge movingJohannes Weiner1-0/+4
Charge moving mode in cgroup1 allows memory to follow tasks as they migrate between cgroups. This is, and always has been, a questionable thing to do - for several reasons. First, it's expensive. Pages need to be identified, locked and isolated from various MM operations, and reassigned, one by one. Second, it's unreliable. Once pages are charged to a cgroup, there isn't always a clear owner task anymore. Cache isn't moved at all, for example. Mapped memory is moved - but if trylocking or isolating a page fails, it's arbitrarily left behind. Frequent moving between domains may leave a task's memory scattered all over the place. Third, it isn't really needed. Launcher tasks can kick off workload tasks directly in their target cgroup. Using dedicated per-workload groups allows fine-grained policy adjustments - no need to move tasks and their physical pages between control domains. The feature was never forward-ported to cgroup2, and it hasn't been missed. Despite it being a niche usecase, the maintenance overhead of supporting it is enormous. Because pages are moved while they are live and subject to various MM operations, the synchronization rules are complicated. There are lock_page_memcg() in MM and FS code, which non-cgroup people don't understand. In some cases we've been able to shift code and cgroup API calls around such that we can rely on native locking as much as possible. But that's fragile, and sometimes we need to hold MM locks for longer than we otherwise would (pte lock e.g.). Mark the feature deprecated. Hopefully we can remove it soon. And backport into -stable kernels so that people who develop against earlier kernels are warned about this deprecation as early as possible.

2023-01-18mm: memcontrol: skip moving non-present pages that are mapped elsewhereJohannes Weiner1-14/+38
Patch series "mm: push down lock_page_memcg()", v2. This patch (of 3): During charge moving, the pte lock and the page lock cover nearly all cases of stabilizing page_mapped(). The only exception is when we're looking at a non-present pte and find a page in the page cache or in the swapcache: if the page is mapped elsewhere, it can become unmapped outside of our control. For this reason, rmap needs lock_page_memcg(). We don't like cgroup-specific locks in generic MM code - especially in performance-critical MM code - and for a legacy feature that's unlikely to have many users left - if any. So remove the exception. Arguably that's better semantics anyway: the page is shared, and another process seems to be the more active user. Once we stop moving such pages, rmap doesn't need lock_page_memcg() anymore. The next patch will remove it.

2022-12-11mm: memcg: fix swapcached stat accountingHugh Dickins1-0/+6
I'd been worried by high "swapcached" counts in memcg OOM reports, thought we had a problem freeing swapcache, but it was just the accounting that was wrong. Two issues: 1. When __remove_mapping() removes swapcache, __delete_from_swap_cache() relies on memcg_data for the right counts to be updated; but that had already been reset by mem_cgroup_swapout(). Swap those calls around - mem_cgroup_swapout() does not require the swapcached flag to be set. 6.1 commit ac35a4902374 ("mm: multi-gen LRU: minimal implementation") already made a similar swap for workingset_eviction(), but not for this. 2. memcg's "swapcached" count was added for memcg v2 stats, but displayed on OOM even for memcg v1: so mem_cgroup_move_account() ought to move it.

2022-12-11mm: add nodes= arg to memory.reclaimMina Almasry1-13/+54
The nodes= arg instructs the kernel to only scan the given nodes for proactive reclaim. For example use cases, consider a 2 tier memory system: nodes 0,1 -> top tier nodes 2,3 -> second tier $ echo "1m nodes=0" > memory.reclaim This instructs the kernel to attempt to reclaim 1m memory from node 0. Since node 0 is a top tier node, demotion will be attempted first. This is useful to direct proactive reclaim to specific nodes that are under pressure. $ echo "1m nodes=2,3" > memory.reclaim This instructs the kernel to attempt to reclaim 1m memory in the second tier, since this tier of memory has no demotion targets the memory will be reclaimed. $ echo "1m nodes=0,1" > memory.reclaim Instructs the kernel to reclaim memory from the top tier nodes, which can be desirable according to the userspace policy if there is pressure on the top tiers. Since these nodes have demotion targets, the kernel will attempt demotion first. Since commit 3f1509c57b1b ("Revert "mm/vmscan: never demote for memcg reclaim""), the proactive reclaim interface memory.reclaim does both reclaim and demotion. Reclaim and demotion incur different latency costs to the jobs in the cgroup. Demoted memory would still be addressable by the userspace at a higher latency, but reclaimed memory would need to incur a pagefault. The 'nodes' arg is useful to allow the userspace to control demotion and reclaim independently according to its policy: if the memory.reclaim is called on a node with demotion targets, it will attempt demotion first; if it is called on a node without demotion targets, it will only attempt reclaim.

2022-12-09memcg: fix possible use-after-free in memcg_write_event_control()Tejun Heo1-2/+13
memcg_write_event_control() accesses the dentry->d_name of the specified control fd to route the write call. As a cgroup interface file can't be renamed, it's safe to access d_name as long as the specified file is a regular cgroup file. Also, as these cgroup interface files can't be removed before the directory, it's safe to access the parent too. Prior to 347c4a874710 ("memcg: remove cgroup_event->cft"), there was a call to __file_cft() which verified that the specified file is a regular cgroupfs file before further accesses. The cftype pointer returned from __file_cft() was no longer necessary and the commit inadvertently dropped the file type check with it allowing any file to slip through. With the invarients broken, the d_name and parent accesses can now race against renames and removals of arbitrary files and cause use-after-free's. Fix the bug by resurrecting the file type check in __file_cft(). Now that cgroupfs is implemented through kernfs, checking the file operations needs to go through a layer of indirection. Instead, let's check the superblock and dentry type.

2022-11-30mm: vmscan: split khugepaged stats from direct reclaim statsJohannes Weiner1-2/+6
Direct reclaim stats are useful for identifying a potential source for application latency, as well as spotting issues with kswapd. However, khugepaged currently distorts the picture: as a kernel thread it doesn't impose allocation latencies on userspace, and it explicitly opts out of kswapd reclaim. Its activity showing up in the direct reclaim stats is misleading. Counting it as kswapd reclaim could also cause confusion when trying to understand actual kswapd behavior. Break out khugepaged from the direct reclaim counters into new pgsteal_khugepaged, pgdemote_khugepaged, pgscan_khugepaged counters. Test with a huge executable (CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS): pgsteal_kswapd 1342185 pgsteal_direct 0 pgsteal_khugepaged 3623 pgscan_kswapd 1345025 pgscan_direct 0 pgscan_khugepaged 3623 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20221026180133.377671-1-hannes@cmpxchg.org Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Reported-by: Eric Bergen <ebergen@meta.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Yang Shi <shy828301@gmail.com> Cc: Yosry Ahmed <yosryahmed@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
