The swapaccount deprecation warning is throwing false positives. Since we
deprecated the knob and defaulted to enabling, the only reports we've been
getting are from folks that set swapaccount=1. While this is a nice
affirmation that always-enabling was the right choice, we certainly don't
want to warn when users request the supported mode.
Only warn when disabling is requested, and clarify the warning.

In memcg_rstat_updated(), we iterate the memcg being updated and its
parents to update memcg->vmstats_percpu->stats_updates in the fast path
(i.e. no atomic updates). According to my math, this is 3 memory loads
(and potentially 3 cache misses) per memcg:
- Load the address of memcg->vmstats_percpu.
- Load vmstats_percpu->stats_updates (based on some percpu calculation).
- Load the address of the parent memcg.
Avoid most of the cache misses by caching a pointer from each struct
memcg_vmstats_percpu to its parent on the corresponding CPU. In this
case, for the first memcg we have 2 memory loads (same as above):
- Load the address of memcg->vmstats_percpu.
- Load vmstats_percpu->stats_updates (based on some percpu calculation).
Then for each additional memcg, we need a single load to get the
parent's stats_updates directly. This reduces the number of loads from
O(3N) to O(2+N) -- where N is the number of memcgs we need to iterate.
Additionally, stash a pointer to memcg->vmstats in each struct
memcg_vmstats_percpu such that we can access the atomic counter that all
CPUs fold into, memcg->vmstats->stats_updates.
memcg_should_flush_stats() is changed to memcg_vmstats_needs_flush() to
accept a struct memcg_vmstats pointer accordingly.
In struct memcg_vmstats_percpu, make sure both pointers together with
stats_updates live on the same cacheline. Finally, update
mem_cgroup_alloc() to take in a parent pointer and initialize the new
cache pointers on each CPU. The percpu loop in mem_cgroup_alloc() may
look concerning, but there are multiple similar loops in the cgroup
creation path (e.g. cgroup_rstat_init()), most of which are hidden
within alloc_percpu().
According to Oliver's testing [1], this fixes multiple 30-38%
regressions in vm-scalability, will-it-scale-tlb_flush2, and
will-it-scale-fallocate1. This comes at a cost of 2 more pointers per
CPU (<2KB on a machine with 128 CPUs).

While investigating hosts with high cgroup memory pressures, Tejun
found culprit zombie tasks that had were holding on to a lot of
memory, had SIGKILL pending, but were stuck in memory.high reclaim.
In the past, we used to always force-charge allocations from tasks
that were exiting in order to accelerate them dying and freeing up
their rss. This changed for memory.max in a4ebf1b6ca1e ("memcg:
prohibit unconditional exceeding the limit of dying tasks"); it noted
that this can cause (userspace inducable) containment failures, so it
added a mandatory reclaim and OOM kill cycle before forcing charges.
At the time, memory.high enforcement was handled in the userspace
return path, which isn't reached by dying tasks, and so memory.high
was still never enforced by dying tasks.
When c9afe31ec443 ("memcg: synchronously enforce memory.high for large
overcharges") added synchronous reclaim for memory.high, it added
unconditional memory.high enforcement for dying tasks as well. The
callstack shows that this path is where the zombie is stuck in.
We need to accelerate dying tasks getting past memory.high, but we
cannot do it quite the same way as we do for memory.max: memory.max is
enforced strictly, and tasks aren't allowed to move past it without
FIRST reclaiming and OOM killing if necessary. This ensures very small
levels of excess. With memory.high, though, enforcement happens lazily
after the charge, and OOM killing is never triggered. A lot of
concurrent threads could have pushed, or could actively be pushing,
the cgroup into excess. The dying task will enter reclaim on every
allocation attempt, with little hope of restoring balance.
To fix this, skip synchronous memory.high enforcement on dying tasks
altogether again. Update memory.high path documentation while at it.

Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
- SLUB: delayed freezing of CPU partial slabs (Chengming Zhou)
Freezing is an operation involving double_cmpxchg() that makes a slab
exclusive for a particular CPU. Chengming noticed that we use it also
in situations where we are not yet installing the slab as the CPU
slab, because freezing also indicates that the slab is not on the
shared list. This results in redundant freeze/unfreeze operation and
can be avoided by marking separately the shared list presence by
reusing the PG_workingset flag.
This approach neatly avoids the issues described in 9b1ea29bc0d7
("Revert "mm, slub: consider rest of partial list if acquire_slab()
fails"") as we can now grab a slab from the shared list in a quick
and guaranteed way without the cmpxchg_double() operation that
amplifies the lock contention and can fail.
As a result, lkp has reported 34.2% improvement of
stress-ng.rawudp.ops_per_sec
- SLAB removal and SLUB cleanups (Vlastimil Babka)
The SLAB allocator has been deprecated since 6.5 and nobody has
objected so far. We agreed at LSF/MM to wait until the next LTS,
which is 6.6, so we should be good to go now.
This doesn't yet erase all traces of SLAB outside of mm/ so some dead
code, comments or documentation remain, and will be cleaned up
gradually (some series are already in the works).
Removing the choice of allocators has already allowed to simplify and
optimize the code wiring up the kmalloc APIs to the SLUB
implementation.

During our experiment with zswap, we sometimes observe swap IOs due to
occasional zswap store failures and writebacks-to-swap. These swapping
IOs prevent many users who cannot tolerate swapping from adopting zswap to
save memory and improve performance where possible.
This patch adds the option to disable this behavior entirely: do not
writeback to backing swapping device when a zswap store attempt fail, and
do not write pages in the zswap pool back to the backing swap device (both
when the pool is full, and when the new zswap shrinker is called).
This new behavior can be opted-in/out on a per-cgroup basis via a new
cgroup file. By default, writebacks to swap device is enabled, which is
the previous behavior. Initially, writeback is enabled for the root
cgroup, and a newly created cgroup will inherit the current setting of its
parent.
Note that this is subtly different from setting memory.swap.max to 0, as
it still allows for pages to be stored in the zswap pool (which itself
consumes swap space in its current form).
This patch should be applied on top of the zswap shrinker series:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20231130194023.4102148-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/
as it also disables the zswap shrinker, a major source of zswap
writebacks.
For the most part, this feature is motivated by internal parties who
have already established their opinions regarding swapping - the
workloads that are highly sensitive to IO, and especially those who are
using servers with really slow disk performance (for instance, massive
but slow HDDs). For these folks, it's impossible to convince them to
even entertain zswap if swapping also comes as a packaged deal.
Writeback disabling is quite a useful feature in these situations - on
a mixed workloads deployment, they can disable writeback for the more
IO-sensitive workloads, and enable writeback for other background
workloads.
For instance, on a server with HDD, I allocate memories and populate
them with random values (so that zswap store will always fail), and
specify memory.high low enough to trigger reclaim. The time it takes
to allocate the memories and just read through it a couple of times
(doing silly things like computing the values' average etc.):
zswap.writeback disabled:
real 0m30.537s
user 0m23.687s
sys 0m6.637s
0 pages swapped in
0 pages swapped out
zswap.writeback enabled:
real 0m45.061s
user 0m24.310s
sys 0m8.892s
712686 pages swapped in
461093 pages swapped out
(the last two lines are from vmstat -s).

The reason for the crash is that, the commit 85ce2c517ade ("memcontrol:
only transfer the memcg data for migration") removed the charging and
uncharging operations of the migration folios and cleared the memcg data
of the old folio.
During the subsequent release process of the old large folio in
destroy_large_folio(), if the large folio needs to be removed from the
split queue, an incorrect split queue can be obtained (which is
pgdat->deferred_split_queue) because the old folio's memcg is NULL now.
This can lead to list operations being performed under the wrong split
queue lock protection, resulting in a list crash as above.
After the migration, the old folio is going to be freed, so we can remove
it from the split queue in mem_cgroup_migrate() a bit earlier before
clearing the memcg data to avoid getting incorrect split queue.

Stats flushing for memcg currently follows the following rules:
- Always flush the entire memcg hierarchy (i.e. flush the root).
- Only one flusher is allowed at a time. If someone else tries to flush
concurrently, they skip and return immediately.
- A periodic flusher flushes all the stats every 2 seconds.
The reason this approach is followed is because all flushes are serialized
by a global rstat spinlock. On the memcg side, flushing is invoked from
userspace reads as well as in-kernel flushers (e.g. reclaim, refault,
etc). This approach aims to avoid serializing all flushers on the global
lock, which can cause a significant performance hit under high
concurrency.
This approach has the following problems:
- Occasionally a userspace read of the stats of a non-root cgroup will
be too expensive as it has to flush the entire hierarchy [1].
- Sometimes the stats accuracy are compromised if there is an ongoing
flush, and we skip and return before the subtree of interest is
actually flushed, yielding stale stats (by up to 2s due to periodic
flushing). This is more visible when reading stats from userspace,
but can also affect in-kernel flushers.
The latter problem is particulary a concern when userspace reads stats
after an event occurs, but gets stats from before the event. Examples:
- When memory usage / pressure spikes, a userspace OOM handler may look
at the stats of different memcgs to select a victim based on various
heuristics (e.g. how much private memory will be freed by killing
this). Reading stale stats from before the usage spike in this case
may cause a wrongful OOM kill.
- A proactive reclaimer may read the stats after writing to
memory.reclaim to measure the success of the reclaim operation. Stale
stats from before reclaim may give a false negative.
- Reading the stats of a parent and a child memcg may be inconsistent
(child larger than parent), if the flush doesn't happen when the
parent is read, but happens when the child is read.
As for in-kernel flushers, they will occasionally get stale stats. No
regressions are currently known from this, but if there are regressions,
they would be very difficult to debug and link to the source of the
problem.
This patch aims to fix these problems by restoring subtree flushing, and
removing the unified/coalesced flushing logic that skips flushing if there
is an ongoing flush. This change would introduce a significant regression
with global stats flushing thresholds. With per-memcg stats flushing
thresholds, this seems to perform really well. The thresholds protect the
underlying lock from unnecessary contention.
This patch was tested in two ways to ensure the latency of flushing is
up to par, on a machine with 384 cpus:
- A synthetic test with 5000 concurrent workers in 500 cgroups doing
allocations and reclaim, as well as 1000 readers for memory.stat
(variation of [2]). No regressions were noticed in the total runtime.
Note that significant regressions in this test are observed with
global stats thresholds, but not with per-memcg thresholds.
- A synthetic stress test for concurrently reading memcg stats while
memory allocation/freeing workers are running in the background,
provided by Wei Xu [3]. With 250k threads reading the stats every
100ms in 50k cgroups, 99.9% of reads take <= 50us. Less than 0.01%
of reads take more than 1ms, and no reads take more than 100ms.

A global counter for the magnitude of memcg stats update is maintained on
the memcg side to avoid invoking rstat flushes when the pending updates
are not significant. This avoids unnecessary flushes, which are not very
cheap even if there isn't a lot of stats to flush. It also avoids
unnecessary lock contention on the underlying global rstat lock.
Make this threshold per-memcg. The scheme is followed where percpu (now
also per-memcg) counters are incremented in the update path, and only
propagated to per-memcg atomics when they exceed a certain threshold.
This provides two benefits: (a) On large machines with a lot of memcgs,
the global threshold can be reached relatively fast, so guarding the
underlying lock becomes less effective. Making the threshold per-memcg
avoids this.
(b) Having a global threshold makes it hard to do subtree flushes, as we
cannot reset the global counter except for a full flush. Per-memcg
counters removes this as a blocker from doing subtree flushes, which helps
avoid unnecessary work when the stats of a small subtree are needed.
Nothing is free, of course. This comes at a cost: (a) A new per-cpu
counter per memcg, consuming NR_CPUS * NR_MEMCGS * 4 bytes. The extra
memory usage is insigificant.
(b) More work on the update side, although in the common case it will only
be percpu counter updates. The amount of work scales with the number of
ancestors (i.e. tree depth). This is not a new concept, adding a cgroup
to the rstat tree involves a parent loop, so is charging. Testing results
below show no significant regressions.
(c) The error margin in the stats for the system as a whole increases from
NR_CPUS * MEMCG_CHARGE_BATCH to NR_CPUS * MEMCG_CHARGE_BATCH * NR_MEMCGS.
This is probably fine because we have a similar per-memcg error in charges
coming from percpu stocks, and we have a periodic flusher that makes sure
we always flush all the stats every 2s anyway.
This patch was tested to make sure no significant regressions are
introduced on the update path as follows. The following benchmarks were
ran in a cgroup that is 2 levels deep (/sys/fs/cgroup/a/b/):
(1) Running 22 instances of netperf on a 44 cpu machine with
hyperthreading disabled. All instances are run in a level 2 cgroup, as
well as netserver:
# netserver -6
# netperf -6 -H ::1 -l 60 -t TCP_SENDFILE -- -m 10K
Averaging 20 runs, the numbers are as follows:
Base: 40198.0 mbps
Patched: 38629.7 mbps (-3.9%)
The regression is minimal, especially for 22 instances in the same
cgroup sharing all ancestors (so updating the same atomics).
(2) will-it-scale page_fault tests. These tests (specifically
per_process_ops in page_fault3 test) detected a 25.9% regression before
for a change in the stats update path [1]. These are the
numbers from 10 runs (+ is good) on a machine with 256 cpus:

All regressions seem to be minimal, and within the normal variance for the
benchmark. The fix for [1] assumes that 3% is noise -- and there were no
further practical complaints), so hopefully this means that such
variations in these microbenchmarks do not reflect on practical workloads.
(3) I also ran stress-ng in a nested cgroup and did not observe any
obvious regressions.

Patch series "mm: memcg: subtree stats flushing and thresholds", v4.
This series attempts to address shortages in today's approach for memcg
stats flushing, namely occasionally stale or expensive stat reads. The
series does so by changing the threshold that we use to decide whether to
trigger a flush to be per memcg instead of global (patch 3), and then
changing flushing to be per memcg (i.e. subtree flushes) instead of
global (patch 5).
This patch (of 5):
flush_next_time is an inaccurate name. It's not the next time that
periodic flushing will happen, it's rather the next time that ratelimited
flushing can happen if the periodic flusher is late.
Simplify its semantics by just storing the timestamp of the last flush
instead, flush_last_time. Move the 2*FLUSH_TIME addition to
mem_cgroup_flush_stats_ratelimited(), and add a comment explaining it.
This way, all the ratelimiting semantics live in one place.
No functional change intended.

Currently, we only have a single global LRU for zswap. This makes it
impossible to perform worload-specific shrinking - an memcg cannot
determine which pages in the pool it owns, and often ends up writing pages
from other memcgs. This issue has been previously observed in practice
and mitigated by simply disabling memcg-initiated shrinking:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230530232435.3097106-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/T/#u
This patch fully resolves the issue by replacing the global zswap LRU
with memcg- and NUMA-specific LRUs, and modify the reclaim logic:
a) When a store attempt hits an memcg limit, it now triggers a
synchronous reclaim attempt that, if successful, allows the new
hotter page to be accepted by zswap.
b) If the store attempt instead hits the global zswap limit, it will
trigger an asynchronous reclaim attempt, in which an memcg is
selected for reclaim in a round-robin-like fashion.

[ 6.027000] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000000b
Actually the problem is caused by uninitialized local variable in
current_obj_cgroup(). If the root memory cgroup is set as an active
memory cgroup for a charging scope (as in the trace, where systemd tries
to create the first non-root cgroup, so the parent cgroup is the root
cgroup), the "for" loop is skipped and uninitialized objcg is returned,
causing a panic down the accounting stack.
The fix is trivial: initialize the objcg variable to NULL unconditionally
before the "for" loop.

We don't share the hooks between two slab implementations anymore so
they can be moved away from the header. As part of the move, also move
should_failslab() from slab_common.c as the pre_alloc hook uses it.
This means slab.h can stop including fault-inject.h and kmemleak.h.
Fix up some files that were depending on the includes transitively.

Objcg vectors attached to slab pages to store slab object ownership
information are allocated using gfp flags for the original slab
allocation. Depending on slab page order and the size of slab objects,
objcg vector can take several pages.
If the original allocation was done with the __GFP_NOFAIL flag, it
triggered a warning in the page allocation code. Indeed, order > 1 pages
should not been allocated with the __GFP_NOFAIL flag.
Fix this by simply dropping the __GFP_NOFAIL flag when allocating the
objcg vector. It effectively allows to skip the accounting of a single
slab object under a heavy memory pressure.
An alternative would be to implement the mechanism to fallback to order-0
allocations for accounting metadata, which is also not perfect because it
will increase performance penalty and memory footprint of the kernel
memory accounting under memory pressure.

Reimplement get_obj_cgroup_from_current() using current_obj_cgroup().
get_obj_cgroup_from_current() and current_obj_cgroup() share 80% of the
code, so the new implementation is almost trivial.
get_obj_cgroup_from_current() is a convenient function used by the
bpf subsystem, so there is no reason to get rid of it completely.

Switch to a scope-based protection of the objcg pointer on slab/kmem
allocation paths. Instead of using the get_() semantics in the
pre-allocation hook and put the reference afterwards, let's rely on the
fact that objcg is pinned by the scope.
It's possible because:
1) if the objcg is received from the current task struct, the task is
keeping a reference to the objcg.
2) if the objcg is received from an active memcg (remote charging),
the memcg is pinned by the scope and has a reference to the
corresponding objcg.

Keep a reference to the original objcg object for the entire life of a
memcg structure.
This allows to simplify the synchronization on the kernel memory
allocation paths: pinning a (live) memcg will also pin the corresponding
objcg.
The memory overhead of this change is minimal because object cgroups
usually outlive their corresponding memory cgroups even without this
change, so it's only an additional pointer per memcg.

To charge a freshly allocated kernel object to a memory cgroup, the kernel
needs to obtain an objcg pointer. Currently it does it indirectly by
obtaining the memcg pointer first and then calling to
__get_obj_cgroup_from_memcg().
Usually tasks spend their entire life belonging to the same object cgroup.
So it makes sense to save the objcg pointer on task_struct directly, so
it can be obtained faster. It requires some work on fork, exit and cgroup
migrate paths, but these paths are way colder.
To avoid any costly synchronization the following rules are applied:
1) A task sets it's objcg pointer itself.
2) If a task is being migrated to another cgroup, the least
significant bit of the objcg pointer is set atomically.
3) On the allocation path the objcg pointer is obtained locklessly
using the READ_ONCE() macro and the least significant bit is
checked. If it's set, the following procedure is used to update
it locklessly:
- task->objcg is zeroed using cmpxcg
- new objcg pointer is obtained
- task->objcg is updated using try_cmpxchg
- operation is repeated if try_cmpxcg fails
It guarantees that no updates will be lost if task migration
is racing against objcg pointer update. It also allows to keep
both read and write paths fully lockless.
Because the task is keeping a reference to the objcg, it can't go away
while the task is alive.
This commit doesn't change the way the remote memcg charging works.

Patch series "mm: improve performance of accounted kernel memory
allocations", v5.
This patchset improves the performance of accounted kernel memory
allocations by ~30% as measured by a micro-benchmark [1]. The benchmark
is very straightforward: 1M of 64 bytes-large kmalloc() allocations.
Below are results with the disabled kernel memory accounting, the original state
and with this patchset applied.
| | Kmem disabled | Original | Patched | Delta |
|-------------+---------------+----------+---------+--------|
| User cgroup | 29764 | 84548 | 59078 | -30.0% |
| Root cgroup | 29742 | 48342 | 31501 | -34.8% |
As we can see, the patchset removes the majority of the overhead when
there is no actual accounting (a task belongs to the root memory cgroup)
and almost halves the accounting overhead otherwise.
The main idea is to get rid of unnecessary memcg to objcg conversions and
switch to a scope-based protection of objcgs, which eliminates extra
operations with objcg reference counters under a rcu read lock. More
details are provided in individual commit descriptions.
This patch (of 5):
Manually inline memcg_kmem_bypass() and active_memcg() to speed up
get_obj_cgroup_from_current() by avoiding duplicate in_task() checks and
active_memcg() readings.
Also add a likely() macro to __get_obj_cgroup_from_memcg():
obj_cgroup_tryget() should succeed at almost all times except a very
unlikely race with the memcg deletion path.

Currently, hugetlb memory usage is not acounted for in the memory
controller, which could lead to memory overprotection for cgroups with
hugetlb-backed memory. This has been observed in our production system.
For instance, here is one of our usecases: suppose there are two 32G
containers. The machine is booted with hugetlb_cma=6G, and each container
may or may not use up to 3 gigantic page, depending on the workload within
it. The rest is anon, cache, slab, etc. We can set the hugetlb cgroup
limit of each cgroup to 3G to enforce hugetlb fairness. But it is very
difficult to configure memory.max to keep overall consumption, including
anon, cache, slab etc. fair.
What we have had to resort to is to constantly poll hugetlb usage and
readjust memory.max. Similar procedure is done to other memory limits
(memory.low for e.g). However, this is rather cumbersome and buggy.
Furthermore, when there is a delay in memory limits correction, (for e.g
when hugetlb usage changes within consecutive runs of the userspace
agent), the system could be in an over/underprotected state.
This patch rectifies this issue by charging the memcg when the hugetlb
folio is utilized, and uncharging when the folio is freed (analogous to
the hugetlb controller). Note that we do not charge when the folio is
allocated to the hugetlb pool, because at this point it is not owned by
any memcg.
Some caveats to consider:
* This feature is only available on cgroup v2.
* There is no hugetlb pool management involved in the memory
controller. As stated above, hugetlb folios are only charged towards
the memory controller when it is used. Host overcommit management
has to consider it when configuring hard limits.
* Failure to charge towards the memcg results in SIGBUS. This could
happen even if the hugetlb pool still has pages (but the cgroup
limit is hit and reclaim attempt fails).
* When this feature is enabled, hugetlb pages contribute to memory
reclaim protection. low, min limits tuning must take into account
hugetlb memory.
* Hugetlb pages utilized while this option is not selected will not
be tracked by the memory controller (even if cgroup v2 is remounted
later on).

For most migration use cases, only transfer the memcg data from the old
folio to the new folio, and clear the old folio's memcg data. No charging
and uncharging will be done.
This shaves off some work on the migration path, and avoids the temporary
double charging of a folio during its migration.
The only exception is replace_page_cache_folio(), which will use the old
mem_cgroup_migrate() (now renamed to mem_cgroup_replace_folio). In that
context, the isolation of the old page isn't quite as thorough as with
migration, so we cannot use our new implementation directly.
This patch is the result of the following discussion on the new hugetlb
memcg accounting behavior:

This patch (of 4):
This patch exposes charge committing and cancelling as parts of the memory
controller interface. These functionalities are useful when the
try_charge() and commit_charge() stages have to be separated by other
actions in between (which can fail). One such example is the new hugetlb
accounting behavior in the following patch.
The patch also adds a helper function to obtain a reference to the
current task's memcg.

memcg_rstat_updated() uses the value of the state update to keep track of
the magnitude of pending updates, so that we only do a stats flush when
it's worth the work. Most values passed into memcg_rstat_updated() are in
pages, however, a few of them are actually in bytes or KBs.
To put this into perspective, a 512 byte slab allocation today would look
the same as allocating 512 pages. This may result in premature flushes,
which means unnecessary work and latency.
Normalize all the state values passed into memcg_rstat_updated() to pages.
Round up non-zero sub-page to 1 page, because memcg_rstat_updated()
ignores 0 page updates.

Patch series "mm: memcg: fix tracking of pending stats updates values", v2.
While working on adjacent code [1], I realized that the values passed into
memcg_rstat_updated() to keep track of the magnitude of pending updates is
consistent. It is mostly in pages, but sometimes it can be in bytes or
KBs. Fix that.
Patch 1 reworks memcg_page_state_unit() so that we can reuse it in patch 2
to check and normalize the units of state updates.
[1]https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230921081057.3440885-1-yosryahmed@google.com/
This patch (of 2):
memcg_page_state_unit() is currently used to identify the unit of a memcg
state item so that all stats in memory.stat are in bytes. However, it
lies about the units of WORKINGSET_* stats. These stats actually
represent pages, but we present them to userspace as a scalar number of
events. In retrospect, maybe those stats should have been memcg "events"
rather than memcg "state".
In preparation for using memcg_page_state_unit() for other purposes that
need to know the truthful units of different stat items, break it down
into two helpers:
- memcg_page_state_unit() retuns the actual unit of the item.
- memcg_page_state_output_unit() returns the unit used for output.
Use the latter instead of the former in memcg_page_state_output() and
lruvec_page_state_output(). While we are at it, let's show cgroup v1 some
love and add memcg_page_state_local_output() for consistency.
No functional change intended.

Since commit b25806dcd3d5("mm: memcontrol: deprecate swapaccounting=0
mode") do_memsw_account() is synonymous with
!cgroup_subsys_on_dfl(memory_cgrp_subsys), It always equals true in
memcg1_stat_format(). Remove the unused code.

Patch series "Expose swapcache stat for memcg v1", v2.
Since commit b6038942480e ("mm: memcg: add swapcache stat for memcg v2")
adds swapcache stat for the cgroup v2, it seems there is no reason to hide
it in memcg v1. Conversely, with swapcached it is more accurate to
evaluate the available memory for memcg.

At present, we support per-memcg reclaim strategy, however we do not know
the number of transparent huge pages being reclaimed, as we know the
transparent huge pages need to be splited before reclaim them, and they
will bring some performance bottleneck effect. for example, when two
memcg (A & B) are doing reclaim for anonymous pages at same time, and 'A'
memcg is reclaiming a large number of transparent huge pages, we can
better analyze that the performance bottleneck will be caused by 'A'
memcg. therefore, in order to better analyze such problems, there add THP
swap out info for per-memcg.

This reverts commits 86327e8eb94c ("memcg: drop kmem.limit_in_bytes") and
partially reverts 58056f77502f ("memcg, kmem: further deprecate
kmem.limit_in_bytes") which have incrementally removed support for the
kernel memory accounting hard limit. Unfortunately it has turned out that
there is still userspace depending on the existence of
memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes [1]. The underlying functionality is not
really required but the non-existent file just confuses the userspace
which fails in the result. The patch to fix this on the userspace side
has been submitted but it is hard to predict how it will propagate through
the maze of 3rd party consumers of the software.
Now, reverting alone 86327e8eb94c is not an option because there is
another set of userspace which cannot cope with ENOTSUPP returned when
writing to the file. Therefore we have to go and revisit 58056f77502f as
well. There are two ways to go ahead. Either we give up on the
deprecation and fully revert 58056f77502f as well or we can keep
kmem.limit_in_bytes but make the write a noop and warn about the fact.
This should work for both known breaking workloads which depend on the
existence but do not depend on the hard limit enforcement.
Note to backporters to stable trees. a8c49af3be5f ("memcg: add per-memcg
total kernel memory stat") introduced in 4.18 has added memcg_account_kmem
so the accounting is not done by obj_cgroup_charge_pages directly for v1
anymore. Prior kernels need to add it explicitly (thanks to Johannes for
pointing this out).

In the eviction recency check, we attempt to retrieve the memcg to which
the folio belonged when it was evicted, by the memcg id stored in the
shadow entry. However, there is a chance that the retrieved memcg is not
the original memcg that has been killed, but a new one which happens to
have the same id.
This is a somewhat unfortunate, but acceptable and rare inaccuracy in the
heuristics. However, if we retrieve this new memcg between its allocation
and when it is properly attached to the memcg hierarchy, we could run into
the following NULL pointer exception during the memcg hierarchy traversal
done in mem_cgroup_get_nr_swap_pages():

Currently, memcg uses rstat to maintain aggregated hierarchical stats.
Counters are maintained for hierarchical stats at each memcg. Rstat
tracks which cgroups have updates on which cpus to keep those counters
fresh on the read-side.
Non-hierarchical stats are currently not covered by rstat. Their per-cpu
counters are summed up on every read, which is expensive. The original
implementation did the same. At some point before rstat, non-hierarchical
aggregated counters were introduced by commit a983b5ebee57 ("mm:
memcontrol: fix excessive complexity in memory.stat reporting"). However,
those counters were updated on the performance critical write-side, which
caused regressions, so they were later removed by commit 815744d75152
("mm: memcontrol: don't batch updates of local VM stats and events"). See
[1] for more detailed history.
Kernel versions in between a983b5ebee57 & 815744d75152 (a year and a half)
enjoyed cheap reads of non-hierarchical stats, specifically on cgroup v1.
When moving to more recent kernels, a performance regression for reading
non-hierarchical stats is observed.
Now that we have rstat, we know exactly which percpu counters have updates
for each stat. We can maintain non-hierarchical counters again, making
reads much more efficient, without affecting the performance critical
write-side. Hence, add non-hierarchical (i.e local) counters for the
stats, and extend rstat flushing to keep those up-to-date.
A caveat is that we now need a stats flush before reading
local/non-hierarchical stats through {memcg/lruvec}_page_state_local() or
memcg_events_local(), where we previously only needed a flush to read
hierarchical stats. Most contexts reading non-hierarchical stats are
already doing a flush, add a flush to the only missing context in
count_shadow_nodes().
With this patch, reading memory.stat from 1000 memcgs is 3x faster on a
machine with 256 cpus on cgroup v1:
# for i in $(seq 1000); do mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/cg$i; done
# time cat /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/cg*/memory.stat > /dev/null
real 0m0.125s
user 0m0.005s
sys 0m0.120s
After:
real 0m0.032s
user 0m0.005s
sys 0m0.027s
To make sure there are no regressions on cgroup v2, I ran an artificial
reclaim/refault stress test [2] that creates (NR_CPUS * 2) cgroups,
assigns them limits, runs a worker process in each cgroup that allocates
tmpfs memory equal to quadruple the limit (to invoke reclaim
continuously), and then reads back the entire file (to invoke refaults).
All workers are run in parallel, and zram is used as a swapping backend.
Both reclaim and refault have conditional stats flushing. I ran this on a
machine with 112 cpus, once on mm-unstable, and once on mm-unstable with
this patch reverted.
(1) A few runs without this patch:
# time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh
real 0m9.949s
user 0m0.496s
sys 14m44.974s
# time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh
real 0m10.049s
user 0m0.486s
sys 14m55.791s
# time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh
real 0m9.984s
user 0m0.481s
sys 14m53.841s
(2) A few runs with this patch:
# time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh
real 0m9.885s
user 0m0.486s
sys 14m48.753s
# time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh
real 0m9.903s
user 0m0.495s
sys 14m48.339s
# time ./stress_reclaim_refault.sh
real 0m9.861s
user 0m0.507s
sys 14m49.317s
No regressions are observed with this patch. There is actually a very
slight improvement. If I have to guess, maybe it's because we avoid
the percpu loop in count_shadow_nodes() when calling
lruvec_page_state_local(), but I could not prove this using perf, it's
probably in the noise.

This function is misleading; people think it means "Is this a THP", when
all it actually does is check whether this is a large folio. Remove it;
the one remaining user should have been checking to see whether the folio
is PMD sized or not.

Patch series "cleanup with helper macro K()".
Use helper macro K() to improve code readability. No functional
modification involved. Remove redundant K() macro definition.
This patch (of 7):
Since commit eb8589b4f8c1 ("mm: move mem_init_print_info() to mm_init.c"),
the K() macro definition has been moved to mm/internal.h. Therefore, the
definitions in mm/memcontrol.c, mm/backing-dev.c and mm/oom_kill.c are
redundant. Drop redundant definitions.
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: oom_kill.c: remove "#undef K", per Kefeng]

Before commit f53af4285d77 ("mm: vmscan: fix extreme overreclaim and swap
floods"), proactive reclaim will extreme overreclaim sometimes. But
proactive reclaim still inaccurate and some extent overreclaim.
Problematic case is easy to construct. Allocate lots of anonymous memory
(e.g., 20G) in a memcg, then swapping by writing memory.recalim and there
is a certain probability of overreclaim. For example, request 1G by
writing memory.reclaim will eventually reclaim 1.7G or other values more
than 1G.
The reason is that reclaimer may have already reclaimed part of requested
memory in one loop, but before adjust sc->nr_to_reclaim in outer loop,
call shrink_lruvec() again will still follow the current sc->nr_to_reclaim
to work. It will eventually lead to overreclaim. In theory, the amount
of reclaimed would be in [request, 2 * request).
Reclaimer usually tends to reclaim more than request. But either direct
or kswapd reclaim have much smaller nr_to_reclaim targets, so it is less
noticeable and not have much impact.
Proactive reclaim can usually come in with a larger value, so the error is
difficult to ignore. Considering proactive reclaim is usually low
frequency, handle the batching into smaller chunks is a better approach.

walk_page_range() and friends often operate under write-locked mmap_lock.
With introduction of vma locks, the vmas have to be locked as well during
such walks to prevent concurrent page faults in these areas. Add an
additional member to mm_walk_ops to indicate locking requirements for the
walk.
The change ensures that page walks which prevent concurrent page faults
by write-locking mmap_lock, operate correctly after introduction of
per-vma locks. With per-vma locks page faults can be handled under vma
lock without taking mmap_lock at all, so write locking mmap_lock would
not stop them. The change ensures vmas are properly locked during such
walks.
A sample issue this solves is do_mbind() performing queue_pages_range()
to queue pages for migration. Without this change a concurrent page
can be faulted into the area and be left out of migration.

When pagetable lock is held, the page will always be page_mapped(). So
remove unneeded page_mapped() check. Also the page can't be freed from
under us in this case. So use get_page() to get extra page reference to
simplify the code. No functional change intended.
