2020-03-29mm: fork: fix kernel_stack memcg stats for various stack implementationsRoman Gushchin
Depending on CONFIG_VMAP_STACK and the THREAD_SIZE / PAGE_SIZE ratio the space for task stacks can be allocated using __vmalloc_node_range(), alloc_pages_node() and kmem_cache_alloc_node(). In the first and the second cases page->mem_cgroup pointer is set, but in the third it's not: memcg membership of a slab page should be determined using the memcg_from_slab_page() function, which looks at page->slab_cache->memcg_params.memcg . In this case, using mod_memcg_page_state() (as in account_kernel_stack()) is incorrect: page->mem_cgroup pointer is NULL even for pages charged to a non-root memory cgroup. It can lead to kernel_stack per-memcg counters permanently showing 0 on some architectures (depending on the configuration). In order to fix it, let's introduce a mod_memcg_obj_state() helper, which takes a pointer to a kernel object as a first argument, uses mem_cgroup_from_obj() to get a RCU-protected memcg pointer and calls mod_memcg_state(). It allows to handle all possible configurations (CONFIG_VMAP_STACK and various THREAD_SIZE/PAGE_SIZE values) without spilling any memcg/kmem specifics into fork.c . Note: This is a special version of the patch created for stable backports.

2020-03-21mm, memcg: throttle allocators based on ancestral memory.highChris Down
Prior to this commit, we only directly check the affected cgroup's memory.high against its usage. However, it's possible that we are being reclaimed as a result of hitting an ancestor memory.high and should be penalised based on that, instead. This patch changes memory.high overage throttling to use the largest overage in its ancestors when considering how many penalty jiffies to charge. This makes sure that we penalise poorly behaving cgroups in the same way regardless of at what level of the hierarchy memory.high was breached.

Commit 0e4b01df8659 had a bunch of fixups to use the right division method. However, it seems that after all that it still wasn't right -- div_u64 takes a 32-bit divisor.

2020-03-21memcg: fix NULL pointer dereference in __mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_eventChunguang Xu
An eventfd monitors multiple memory thresholds of the cgroup, closes them, the kernel deletes all events related to this eventfd. Before all events are deleted, another eventfd monitors the memory threshold of this cgroup, leading to a crash: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000004 #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page PGD 800000033058e067 P4D 800000033058e067 PUD 3355ce067 PMD 0 Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP PTI CPU: 2 PID: 14012 Comm: kworker/2:6 Kdump: loaded Not tainted 5.6.0-rc4 #3 Hardware name: LENOVO 20AWS01K00/20AWS01K00, BIOS GLET70WW (2.24 ) 05/21/2014 Workqueue: events memcg_event_remove RIP: 0010:__mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event+0xb3/0x190 RSP: 0018:ffffb47e01c4fe18 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: 0000000000000001 RBX: ffff8bb223a8a000 RCX: 0000000000000001 RDX: 0000000000000001 RSI: ffff8bb22fb83540 RDI: 0000000000000001 RBP: ffffb47e01c4fe48 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000010 R10: 000000000000000c R11: 071c71c71c71c71c R12: ffff8bb226aba880 R13: ffff8bb223a8a480 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0000000000000000 FS:  0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff8bb242680000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS:  0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000000004 CR3: 000000032c29c003 CR4: 00000000001606e0 Call Trace: memcg_event_remove+0x32/0x90 process_one_work+0x172/0x380 worker_thread+0x49/0x3f0 kthread+0xf8/0x130 ret_from_fork+0x35/0x40 CR2: 0000000000000004 We can reproduce this problem in the following ways: 1. We create a new cgroup subdirectory and a new eventfd, and then we monitor multiple memory thresholds of the cgroup through this eventfd. 2. closing this eventfd, and __mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event () will be called multiple times to delete all events related to this eventfd. The first time __mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event() is called, the kernel will clear all items related to this eventfd in thresholds-> primary. Since there is currently only one eventfd, thresholds-> primary becomes empty, so the kernel will set thresholds-> primary and hresholds-> spare to NULL. If at this time, the user creates a new eventfd and monitor the memory threshold of this cgroup, kernel will re-initialize thresholds-> primary. Then when __mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event () is called for the second time, because thresholds-> primary is not empty, the system will access thresholds-> spare, but thresholds-> spare is NULL, which will trigger a crash. In general, the longer it takes to delete all events related to this eventfd, the easier it is to trigger this problem. The solution is to check whether the thresholds associated with the eventfd has been cleared when deleting the event. If so, we do nothing.

2020-03-10net: memcg: late association of sock to memcgShakeel Butt
If a TCP socket is allocated in IRQ context or cloned from unassociated (i.e. not associated to a memcg) in IRQ context then it will remain unassociated for its whole life. Almost half of the TCPs created on the system are created in IRQ context, so, memory used by such sockets will not be accounted by the memcg. This issue is more widespread in cgroup v1 where network memory accounting is opt-in but it can happen in cgroup v2 if the source socket for the cloning was created in root memcg. To fix the issue, just do the association of the sockets at the accept() time in the process context and then force charge the memory buffer already used and reserved by the socket.

2020-03-10cgroup: memcg: net: do not associate sock with unrelated cgroupShakeel Butt
We are testing network memory accounting in our setup and noticed inconsistent network memory usage and often unrelated cgroups network usage correlates with testing workload. On further inspection, it seems like mem_cgroup_sk_alloc() and cgroup_sk_alloc() are broken in irq context specially for cgroup v1. mem_cgroup_sk_alloc() and cgroup_sk_alloc() can be called in irq context and kind of assumes that this can only happen from sk_clone_lock() and the source sock object has already associated cgroup. However in cgroup v1, where network memory accounting is opt-in, the source sock can be unassociated with any cgroup and the new cloned sock can get associated with unrelated interrupted cgroup. Cgroup v2 can also suffer if the source sock object was created by process in the root cgroup or if sk_alloc() is called in irq context. The fix is to just do nothing in interrupt. WARNING: Please note that about half of the TCP sockets are allocated from the IRQ context, so, memory used by such sockets will not be accouted by the memcg.

2020-01-13mm: memcg/slab: fix percpu slab vmstats flushingRoman Gushchin
Currently slab percpu vmstats are flushed twice: during the memcg offlining and just before freeing the memcg structure. Each time percpu counters are summed, added to the atomic counterparts and propagated up by the cgroup tree. The second flushing is required due to how recursive vmstats are implemented: counters are batched in percpu variables on a local level, and once a percpu value is crossing some predefined threshold, it spills over to atomic values on the local and each ascendant levels. It means that without flushing some numbers cached in percpu variables will be dropped on floor each time a cgroup is destroyed. And with uptime the error on upper levels might become noticeable. The first flushing aims to make counters on ancestor levels more precise. Dying cgroups may resume in the dying state for a long time. After kmem_cache reparenting which is performed during the offlining slab counters of the dying cgroup don't have any chances to be updated, because any slab operations will be performed on the parent level. It means that the inaccuracy caused by percpu batching will not decrease up to the final destruction of the cgroup. By the original idea flushing slab counters during the offlining should minimize the visible inaccuracy of slab counters on the parent level. The problem is that percpu counters are not zeroed after the first flushing. So every cached percpu value is summed twice. It creates a small error (up to 32 pages per cpu, but usually less) which accumulates on parent cgroup level. After creating and destroying of thousands of child cgroups, slab counter on parent level can be way off the real value. For now, let's just stop flushing slab counters on memcg offlining. It can't be done correctly without scheduling a work on each cpu: reading and zeroing it during css offlining can race with an asynchronous update, which doesn't expect values to be changed underneath. With this change, slab counters on parent level will become eventually consistent. Once all dying children are gone, values are correct. And if not, the error is capped by 32 * NR_CPUS pages per dying cgroup. It's not perfect, as slab are reparented, so any updates after the reparenting will happen on the parent level. It means that if a slab page was allocated, a counter on child level was bumped, then the page was reparented and freed, the annihilation of positive and negative counter values will not happen until the child cgroup is released. It makes slab counters different from others, and it might want us to implement flushing in a correct form again. But it's also a question of performance: scheduling a work on each cpu isn't free, and it's an open question if the benefit of having more accurate counters is worth it. We might also consider flushing all counters on offlining, not only slab counters. So let's fix the main problem now: make the slab counters eventually consistent, so at least the error won't grow with uptime (or more precisely the number of created and destroyed cgroups). And think about the accuracy of counters separately.

2019-12-01mm: clean up and clarify lruvec lookup procedureJohannes Weiner
There is a per-memcg lruvec and a NUMA node lruvec. Which one is being used is somewhat confusing right now, and it's easy to make mistakes - especially when it comes to global reclaim. How it works: when memory cgroups are enabled, we always use the root_mem_cgroup's per-node lruvecs. When memory cgroups are not compiled in or disabled at runtime, we use pgdat->lruvec. Document that in a comment. Due to the way the reclaim code is generalized, all lookups use the mem_cgroup_lruvec() helper function, and nobody should have to find the right lruvec manually right now. But to avoid future mistakes, rename the pgdat->lruvec member to pgdat->__lruvec and delete the convenience wrapper that suggests it's a commonly accessed member. While in this area, swap the mem_cgroup_lruvec() argument order. The name suggests a memcg operation, yet it takes a pgdat first and a memcg second. I have to double take every time I call this. Fix that.

Since commit 1ba6fc9af35b ("mm: vmscan: do not share cgroup iteration between reclaimers"), the memcg reclaim does not bail out earlier based on sc->nr_reclaimed and will traverse all the nodes. All the reclaimable pages of the memcg on all the nodes will be scanned relative to the reclaim priority. So, there is no need to maintain state regarding which node to start the memcg reclaim from. This patch effectively reverts the commit 889976dbcb12 ("memcg: reclaim memory from nodes in round-robin order") and commit 453a9bf347f1 ("memcg: fix numa scan information update to be triggered by memory event").

2019-12-01mm: memcontrol: try harder to set a new memory.highJohannes Weiner
Setting a memory.high limit below the usage makes almost no effort to shrink the cgroup to the new target size. While memory.high is a "soft" limit that isn't supposed to cause OOM situations, we should still try harder to meet a user request through persistent reclaim. For example, after setting a 10M memory.high on an 800M cgroup full of file cache, the usage shrinks to about 350M: + cat /cgroup/workingset/memory.current 841568256 + echo 10M + cat /cgroup/workingset/memory.current 355729408 This isn't exactly what the user would expect to happen. Setting the value a few more times eventually whittles the usage down to what we are asking for: + echo 10M + cat /cgroup/workingset/memory.current 104181760 + echo 10M + cat /cgroup/workingset/memory.current 31801344 + echo 10M + cat /cgroup/workingset/memory.current 10440704 To improve this, add reclaim retry loops to the memory.high write() callback, similar to what we do for memory.max, to make a reasonable effort that the usage meets the requested size after the call returns. Afterwards, a single write() to memory.high is enough in all but extreme cases: + cat /cgroup/workingset/memory.current 841609216 + echo 10M + cat /cgroup/workingset/memory.current 10182656 790M is not a reasonable reclaim target to ask of a single reclaim invocation. And it wouldn't be reasonable to optimize the reclaim code for it. So asking for the full size but retrying is not a bad choice here: we express our intent, and benefit if reclaim becomes better at handling larger requests, but we also acknowledge that some of the deltas we can encounter in memory_high_write() are just too ridiculously big for a single reclaim invocation to manage.

We're iterating over and over in the do {} while (!css_tryget_online()) loop, but obviously the memcg won't become online and the exiting task won't be migrated to a live memcg. Let's fix it by switching from css_tryget_online() to css_tryget(). As css_tryget_online() cannot guarantee that the memcg won't go offline, the check is usually useless, except some rare cases when for example it determines if something should be presented to a user. A similar problem is described by commit 18fa84a2db0e ("cgroup: Use css_tryget() instead of css_tryget_online() in task_get_css()"). Johannes: : The bug aside, it doesn't matter whether the cgroup is online for the : callers.

One thing that changed since 4.16 is e699e2c6a654 ("net, mm: account sock objects to kmemcg"), which made these slab caches subject to cgroup memory accounting and control. The problem with that is that cgroups, unlike the page allocator, do not maintain dedicated atomic reserves. As a cgroup's usage hovers at its limit, atomic allocations - such as done during network rx - can fail consistently for extended periods of time. The kernel is not able to operate under these conditions. We don't want to revert the culprit patch, because it indeed tracks a potentially substantial amount of memory used by a cgroup. We also don't want to implement dedicated atomic reserves for cgroups. There is no point in keeping a fixed margin of unused bytes in the cgroup's memory budget to accomodate a consumer that is impossible to predict - we'd be wasting memory and get into configuration headaches, not unlike what we have going with min_free_kbytes. We do this for physical mem because we have to, but cgroups are an accounting game. Instead, account these privileged allocations to the cgroup, but let them bypass the configured limit if they have to. This way, we get the benefits of accounting the consumed memory and have it exert pressure on the rest of the cgroup, but like with the page allocator, we shift the burden of reclaimining on behalf of atomic allocations onto the regular allocations that can block.

2019-11-06mm: slab: make page_cgroup_ino() to recognize non-compound slab pages properlyRoman Gushchin
page_cgroup_ino() doesn't return a valid memcg pointer for non-compound slab pages, because it depends on PgHead AND PgSlab flags to be set to determine the memory cgroup from the kmem_cache. It's correct for compound pages, but not for generic small pages. Those don't have PgHead set, so it ends up returning zero. Fix this by replacing the condition to PageSlab() && !PageTail(). Before this patch: [root@localhost ~]# ./page-types -c /sys/fs/cgroup/user.slice/user-0.slice/user@0.service/ | grep slab 0x0000000000000080 38 0 _______S___________________________________ slab After this patch: [root@localhost ~]# ./page-types -c /sys/fs/cgroup/user.slice/user-0.slice/user@0.service/ | grep slab 0x0000000000000080 147 0 _______S___________________________________ slab Also, hwpoison_filter_task() uses output of page_cgroup_ino() in order to filter error injection events based on memcg. So if page_cgroup_ino() fails to return memcg pointer, we just fail to inject memory error. Considering that hwpoison filter is for testing, affected users are limited and the impact should be marginal.

2019-10-07mm, memcg: proportional memory.{low,min} reclaimChris Down
cgroup v2 introduces two memory protection thresholds: memory.low (best-effort) and memory.min (hard protection). While they generally do what they say on the tin, there is a limitation in their implementation that makes them difficult to use effectively: that cliff behaviour often manifests when they become eligible for reclaim. This patch implements more intuitive and usable behaviour, where we gradually mount more reclaim pressure as cgroups further and further exceed their protection thresholds. This cliff edge behaviour happens because we only choose whether or not to reclaim based on whether the memcg is within its protection limits (see the use of mem_cgroup_protected in shrink_node), but we don't vary our reclaim behaviour based on this information. Imagine the following timeline, with the numbers the lruvec size in this zone: 1. memory.low=1000000, memory.current=999999. 0 pages may be scanned. 2. memory.low=1000000, memory.current=1000000. 0 pages may be scanned. 3. memory.low=1000000, memory.current=1000001. 1000001* pages may be scanned. (?!) * Of course, we won't usually scan all available pages in the zone even without this patch because of scan control priority, over-reclaim protection, etc. However, as shown by the tests at the end, these techniques don't sufficiently throttle such an extreme change in input, so cliff-like behaviour isn't really averted by their existence alone. Here's an example of how this plays out in practice. At Facebook, we are trying to protect various workloads from "system" software, like configuration management tools, metric collectors, etc (see this[0] case study). In order to find a suitable memory.low value, we start by determining the expected memory range within which the workload will be comfortable operating. This isn't an exact science -- memory usage deemed "comfortable" will vary over time due to user behaviour, differences in composition of work, etc, etc. As such we need to ballpark memory.low, but doing this is currently problematic: 1. If we end up setting it too low for the workload, it won't have *any* effect (see discussion above). The group will receive the full weight of reclaim and won't have any priority while competing with the less important system software, as if we had no memory.low configured at all. 2. Because of this behaviour, we end up erring on the side of setting it too high, such that the comfort range is reliably covered. However, protected memory is completely unavailable to the rest of the system, so we might cause undue memory and IO pressure there when we *know* we have some elasticity in the workload. 3. Even if we get the value totally right, smack in the middle of the comfort zone, we get extreme jumps between no pressure and full pressure that cause unpredictable pressure spikes in the workload due to the current binary reclaim behaviour. With this patch, we can set it to our ballpark estimation without too much worry. Any undesirable behaviour, such as too much or too little reclaim pressure on the workload or system will be proportional to how far our estimation is off. This means we can set memory.low much more conservatively and thus waste less resources *without* the risk of the workload falling off a cliff if we overshoot. As a more abstract technical description, this unintuitive behaviour results in having to give high-priority workloads a large protection buffer on top of their expected usage to function reliably, as otherwise we have abrupt periods of dramatically increased memory pressure which hamper performance. Having to set these thresholds so high wastes resources and generally works against the principle of work conservation. In addition, having proportional memory reclaim behaviour has other benefits. Most notably, before this patch it's basically mandatory to set memory.low to a higher than desirable value because otherwise as soon as you exceed memory.low, all protection is lost, and all pages are eligible to scan again. By contrast, having a gradual ramp in reclaim pressure means that you now still get some protection when thresholds are exceeded, which means that one can now be more comfortable setting memory.low to lower values without worrying that all protection will be lost. This is important because workingset size is really hard to know exactly, especially with variable workloads, so at least getting *some* protection if your workingset size grows larger than you expect increases user confidence in setting memory.low without a huge buffer on top being needed. Thanks a lot to Johannes Weiner and Tejun Heo for their advice and assistance in thinking about how to make this work better. In testing these changes, I intended to verify that: 1. Changes in page scanning become gradual and proportional instead of binary. To test this, I experimented stepping further and further down memory.low protection on a workload that floats around 19G workingset when under memory.low protection, watching page scan rates for the workload cgroup: +------------+-----------------+--------------------+--------------+ | memory.low | test (pgscan/s) | control (pgscan/s) | % of control | +------------+-----------------+--------------------+--------------+ | 21G | 0 | 0 | N/A | | 17G | 867 | 3799 | 23% | | 12G | 1203 | 3543 | 34% | | 8G | 2534 | 3979 | 64% | | 4G | 3980 | 4147 | 96% | | 0 | 3799 | 3980 | 95% | +------------+-----------------+--------------------+--------------+ As you can see, the test kernel (with a kernel containing this patch) ramps up page scanning significantly more gradually than the control kernel (without this patch). 2. More gradual ramp up in reclaim aggression doesn't result in premature OOMs. To test this, I wrote a script that slowly increments the number of pages held by stress(1)'s --vm-keep mode until a production system entered severe overall memory contention. This script runs in a highly protected slice taking up the majority of available system memory. Watching vmstat revealed that page scanning continued essentially nominally between test and control, without causing forward reclaim progress to become arrested.

This is a wrong behavior because nofail allocations are not allowed to fail. Normal charge path simply forces the charge even if that means to cross the limit. Kmem accounting should be doing the same.

2019-09-24mm: thp: make deferred split shrinker memcg awareYang Shi
Currently THP deferred split shrinker is not memcg aware, this may cause premature OOM with some configuration. For example the below test would run into premature OOM easily: $ cgcreate -g memory:thp $ echo 4G > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/thp/memory/limit_in_bytes $ cgexec -g memory:thp transhuge-stress 4000 transhuge-stress comes from kernel selftest. It is easy to hit OOM, but there are still a lot THP on the deferred split queue, memcg direct reclaim can't touch them since the deferred split shrinker is not memcg aware. Convert deferred split shrinker memcg aware by introducing per memcg deferred split queue. The THP should be on either per node or per memcg deferred split queue if it belongs to a memcg. When the page is immigrated to the other memcg, it will be immigrated to the target memcg's deferred split queue too. Reuse the second tail page's deferred_list for per memcg list since the same THP can't be on multiple deferred split queues.

2019-09-24mm: shrinker: make shrinker not depend on memcg kmemYang Shi
Currently shrinker is just allocated and can work when memcg kmem is enabled. But, THP deferred split shrinker is not slab shrinker, it doesn't make too much sense to have such shrinker depend on memcg kmem. It should be able to reclaim THP even though memcg kmem is disabled. Introduce a new shrinker flag, SHRINKER_NONSLAB, for non-slab shrinker. When memcg kmem is disabled, just such shrinkers can be called in shrinking memcg slab.
