Every slab page charged to a non-root memory cgroup has a pointer to the
memory cgroup and holds a reference to it, which protects a non-empty
memory cgroup from being released. At the same time the page has a
pointer to the corresponding kmem_cache, and also hold a reference to the
kmem_cache. And kmem_cache by itself holds a reference to the cgroup.
So there is clearly some redundancy, which allows to stop setting the
page->mem_cgroup pointer and rely on getting memcg pointer indirectly via
kmem_cache. Further it will allow to change this pointer easier, without
a need to go over all charged pages.
So let's stop setting page->mem_cgroup pointer for slab pages, and stop
using the css refcounter directly for protecting the memory cgroup from
going away. Instead rely on kmem_cache as an intermediate object.
Make sure that vmstats and shrinker lists are working as previously, as
well as /proc/kpagecgroup interface.

Currently each charged slab page holds a reference to the cgroup to which
it's charged. Kmem_caches are held by the memcg and are released all
together with the memory cgroup. It means that none of kmem_caches are
released unless at least one reference to the memcg exists, which is very
far from optimal.
Let's rework it in a way that allows releasing individual kmem_caches as
soon as the cgroup is offline, the kmem_cache is empty and there are no
pending allocations.
To make it possible, let's introduce a new percpu refcounter for non-root
kmem caches. The counter is initialized to the percpu mode, and is
switched to the atomic mode during kmem_cache deactivation. The counter
is bumped for every charged page and also for every running allocation.
So the kmem_cache can't be released unless all allocations complete.
To shutdown non-active empty kmem_caches, let's reuse the work queue,
previously used for the kmem_cache deactivation. Once the reference
counter reaches 0, let's schedule an asynchronous kmem_cache release.
* I used the following simple approach to test the performance

Currently the memcg_params.dying flag and the corresponding workqueue used
for the asynchronous deactivation of kmem_caches is synchronized using the
slab_mutex.
It makes impossible to check this flag from the irq context, which will be
required in order to implement asynchronous release of kmem_caches.
So let's switch over to the irq-save flavor of the spinlock-based
synchronization.

There is no point in checking the root_cache->memcg_params.dying flag on
kmem_cache creation path. New allocations shouldn't be performed using a
dead root kmem_cache, so no new memcg kmem_cache creation can be scheduled
after the flag is set. And if it was scheduled before,
flush_memcg_workqueue() will wait for it anyway.
So let's drop this check to simplify the code.

Currently SLUB uses a work scheduled after an RCU grace period to
deactivate a non-root kmem_cache. This mechanism can be reused for
kmem_caches release, but requires generalization for SLAB case.
Introduce kmemcg_cache_deactivate() function, which calls
allocator-specific __kmem_cache_deactivate() and schedules execution of
__kmem_cache_deactivate_after_rcu() with all necessary locks in a worker
context after an rcu grace period.
Here is the new calling scheme:
kmemcg_cache_deactivate()
__kmemcg_cache_deactivate() SLAB/SLUB-specific
kmemcg_rcufn() rcu
kmemcg_workfn() work
__kmemcg_cache_deactivate_after_rcu() SLAB/SLUB-specific
instead of:
__kmemcg_cache_deactivate() SLAB/SLUB-specific
slab_deactivate_memcg_cache_rcu_sched() SLUB-only
kmemcg_rcufn() rcu
kmemcg_workfn() work
kmemcg_cache_deact_after_rcu() SLUB-only
For consistency, all allocator-specific functions start with "__".

The delayed work/rcu deactivation infrastructure of non-root kmem_caches
can be also used for asynchronous release of these objects. Let's get rid
of the word "deactivation" in corresponding names to make the code look
better after generalization.
It's easier to make the renaming first, so that the generalized code will
look consistent from scratch.
Let's rename struct memcg_cache_params fields:
deact_fn -> work_fn
deact_rcu_head -> rcu_head
deact_work -> work
And RCU/delayed work callbacks in slab common code:
kmemcg_deactivate_rcufn -> kmemcg_rcufn
kmemcg_deactivate_workfn -> kmemcg_workfn
This patch contains no functional changes, only renamings.

Patch series "mm: reparent slab memory on cgroup removal", v7.
# Why do we need this?
We've noticed that the number of dying cgroups is steadily growing on most
of our hosts in production. The following investigation revealed an issue
in the userspace memory reclaim code [1], accounting of kernel stacks [2],
and also the main reason: slab objects.
The underlying problem is quite simple: any page charged to a cgroup holds
a reference to it, so the cgroup can't be reclaimed unless all charged
pages are gone. If a slab object is actively used by other cgroups, it
won't be reclaimed, and will prevent the origin cgroup from being
reclaimed.
Slab objects, and first of all vfs cache, is shared between cgroups, which
are using the same underlying fs, and what's even more important, it's
shared between multiple generations of the same workload. So if something
is running periodically every time in a new cgroup (like how systemd
works), we do accumulate multiple dying cgroups.
Strictly speaking pagecache isn't different here, but there is a key
difference: we disable protection and apply some extra pressure on LRUs of
dying cgroups, and these LRUs contain all charged pages. My experiments
show that with the disabled kernel memory accounting the number of dying
cgroups stabilizes at a relatively small number (~100, depends on memory
pressure and cgroup creation rate), and with kernel memory accounting it
grows pretty steadily up to several thousands.
Memory cgroups are quite complex and big objects (mostly due to percpu
stats), so it leads to noticeable memory losses. Memory occupied by dying
cgroups is measured in hundreds of megabytes. I've even seen a host with
more than 100Gb of memory wasted for dying cgroups. It leads to a
degradation of performance with the uptime, and generally limits the usage
of cgroups.
My previous attempt [3] to fix the problem by applying extra pressure on
slab shrinker lists caused a regressions with xfs and ext4, and has been
reverted [4]. The following attempts to find the right balance [5, 6]
were not successful.
So instead of trying to find a maybe non-existing balance, let's do
reparent accounted slab caches to the parent cgroup on cgroup removal.
# Implementation approach
There is however a significant problem with reparenting of slab memory:
there is no list of charged pages. Some of them are in shrinker lists,
but not all. Introducing of a new list is really not an option.
But fortunately there is a way forward: every slab page has a stable
pointer to the corresponding kmem_cache. So the idea is to reparent
kmem_caches instead of slab pages.
It's actually simpler and cheaper, but requires some underlying changes:
1) Make kmem_caches to hold a single reference to the memory cgroup,
instead of a separate reference per every slab page.
2) Stop setting page->mem_cgroup pointer for memcg slab pages and use
page->kmem_cache->memcg indirection instead. It's used only on
slab page release, so performance overhead shouldn't be a big issue.
3) Introduce a refcounter for non-root slab caches. It's required to
be able to destroy kmem_caches when they become empty and release
the associated memory cgroup.
There is a bonus: currently we release all memcg kmem_caches all together
with the memory cgroup itself. This patchset allows individual
kmem_caches to be released as soon as they become inactive and free.
Some additional implementation details are provided in corresponding
commit messages.
# Results
Below is the average number of dying cgroups on two groups of our
production hosts. They do run some sort of web frontend workload, the
memory pressure is moderate. As we can see, with the kernel memory
reparenting the number stabilizes in 60s range; however with the original
version it grows almost linearly and doesn't show any signs of plateauing.
The difference in slab and percpu usage between patched and unpatched
versions also grows linearly. In 7 days it exceeded 200Mb.

This patch (of 10):
Initialize kmem_cache->memcg_params.memcg pointer in memcg_link_cache()
rather than in init_memcg_params().
Once kmem_cache will hold a reference to the memory cgroup, it will
simplify the refcounting.
For non-root kmem_caches memcg_link_cache() is always called before the
kmem_cache becomes visible to a user, so it's safe.

The memory controller in cgroup v2 exposes memory.events file for each
memcg which shows the number of times events like low, high, max, oom
and oom_kill have happened for the whole tree rooted at that memcg.
Users can also poll or register notification to monitor the changes in
that file. Any event at any level of the tree rooted at memcg will
notify all the listeners along the path till root_mem_cgroup. There are
existing users which depend on this behavior.
However there are users which are only interested in the events
happening at a specific level of the memcg tree and not in the events in
the underlying tree rooted at that memcg. One such use-case is a
centralized resource monitor which can dynamically adjust the limits of
the jobs running on a system. The jobs can create their sub-hierarchy
for their own sub-tasks. The centralized monitor is only interested in
the events at the top level memcgs of the jobs as it can then act and
adjust the limits of the jobs. Using the current memory.events for such
centralized monitor is very inconvenient. The monitor will keep
receiving events which it is not interested and to find if the received
event is interesting, it has to read memory.event files of the next
level and compare it with the top level one. So, let's introduce
memory.events.local to the memcg which shows and notify for the events
at the memcg level.
Now, does memory.stat and memory.pressure need their local versions. IMHO
no due to the no internal process contraint of the cgroup v2. The
memory.stat file of the top level memcg of a job shows the stats and
vmevents of the whole tree. The local stats or vmevents of the top level
memcg will only change if there is a process running in that memcg but v2
does not allow that. Similarly for memory.pressure there will not be any
process in the internal nodes and thus no chance of local pressure.

Commit d46eb14b73 ("fs: fsnotify: account fsnotify metadata to

objects. The aim was to charge the memory to the listener who is
interested in the events but without triggering the OOM killer.
Otherwise there would be security concerns for the listener.
At the time, oom-kill trigger was not in the charging path. A parallel
work added the oom-kill back to charging path i.e. commit 29ef680ae7
("memcg, oom: move out_of_memory back to the charge path"). So to not
trigger oom-killer in the remote memcg, explicitly add
__GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL to the fanotigy and inotify event allocations.

Via commit 4b3ef9daa4 ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB trunks"),
after swapoff, the address_space associated with the swap device will be
freed. So swap_address_space() users which touch the address_space need
some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space from being freed
during accessing.
When mincore processes an unmapped range for swapped shmem pages, it
doesn't hold the lock to prevent swap device from being swapped off. So
the following race is possible:
CPU1 CPU2
do_mincore() swapoff()
walk_page_range()
mincore_unmapped_range()
__mincore_unmapped_range
mincore_page
as = swap_address_space()
... exit_swap_address_space()
... kvfree(spaces)
find_get_page(as)
The address space may be accessed after being freed.
To fix the race, get_swap_device()/put_swap_device() is used to enclose
find_get_page() to check whether the swap entry is valid and prevent the
swap device from being swapoff during accessing.

swap_extent is used to map swap page offset to backing device's block
offset. For a continuous block range, one swap_extent is used and all
these swap_extents are managed in a linked list.
These swap_extents are used by map_swap_entry() during swap's read and
write path. To find out the backing device's block offset for a page
offset, the swap_extent list will be traversed linearly, with
curr_swap_extent being used as a cache to speed up the search.
This works well as long as swap_extents are not huge or when the number
of processes that access swap device are few, but when the swap device
has many extents and there are a number of processes accessing the swap
device concurrently, it can be a problem. On one of our servers, the
disk's remaining size is tight:
$df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
... ...
/dev/nvme0n1p1 1.8T 1.3T 504G 72% /home/t4
When creating a 80G swapfile there, there are as many as 84656 swap
extents. The end result is, kernel spends abou 30% time in
map_swap_entry() and swap throughput is only 70MB/s.
As a comparison, when I used smaller sized swapfile, like 4G whose
swap_extent dropped to 2000, swap throughput is back to 400-500MB/s and
map_swap_entry() is about 3%.
One downside of using rbtree for swap_extent is, 'struct rbtree' takes
24 bytes while 'struct list_head' takes 16 bytes, that's 8 bytes more
for each swap_extent. For a swapfile that has 80k swap_extents, that
means 625KiB more memory consumed.
Test:
Since it's not possible to reboot that server, I can not test this patch
diretly there. Instead, I tested it on another server with NVMe disk.
I created a 20G swapfile on an NVMe backed XFS fs. By default, the
filesystem is quite clean and the created swapfile has only 2 extents.
Testing vanilla and this patch shows no obvious performance difference
when swapfile is not fragmented.
To see the patch's effects, I used some tweaks to manually fragment the
swapfile by breaking the extent at 1M boundary. This made the swapfile
have 20K extents.

total_swapcache_pages() may race with swapper_spaces[] allocation and
freeing. Previously, this is protected with a swapper_spaces[] specific
RCU mechanism. To simplify the logic/code complexity, it is replaced with
get/put_swap_device(). The code line number is reduced too. Although not
so important, the swapoff() performance improves too because one
synchronize_rcu() call during swapoff() is deleted.

When swapin is performed, after getting the swap entry information from
the page table, system will swap in the swap entry, without any lock held
to prevent the swap device from being swapoff. This may cause the race
like below,
CPU 1 CPU 2
----- -----
do_swap_page
swapin_readahead
__read_swap_cache_async
swapoff swapcache_prepare
p->swap_map = NULL __swap_duplicate
p->swap_map[?] /* !!! NULL pointer access */
Because swapoff is usually done when system shutdown only, the race may
not hit many people in practice. But it is still a race need to be fixed.
To fix the race, get_swap_device() is added to check whether the specified
swap entry is valid in its swap device. If so, it will keep the swap
entry valid via preventing the swap device from being swapoff, until
put_swap_device() is called.
Because swapoff() is very rare code path, to make the normal path runs as
fast as possible, rcu_read_lock/unlock() and synchronize_rcu() instead of
reference count is used to implement get/put_swap_device(). >From
get_swap_device() to put_swap_device(), RCU reader side is locked, so
synchronize_rcu() in swapoff() will wait until put_swap_device() is
called.
In addition to swap_map, cluster_info, etc. data structure in the struct
swap_info_struct, the swap cache radix tree will be freed after swapoff,
so this patch fixes the race between swap cache looking up and swapoff
too.
Races between some other swap cache usages and swapoff are fixed too via
calling synchronize_rcu() between clearing PageSwapCache() and freeing
swap cache data structure.
Another possible method to fix this is to use preempt_off() +
stop_machine() to prevent the swap device from being swapoff when its data
structure is being accessed. The overhead in hot-path of both methods is
similar. The advantages of RCU based method are,
1. stop_machine() may disturb the normal execution code path on other
CPUs.
2. File cache uses RCU to protect its radix tree. If the similar
mechanism is used for swap cache too, it is easier to share code
between them.
3. RCU is used to protect swap cache in total_swapcache_pages() and
exit_swap_address_space() already. The two mechanisms can be
merged to simplify the logic.

When debug_pagealloc is enabled, we currently allocate the page_ext
array to mark guard pages with the PAGE_EXT_DEBUG_GUARD flag. Now that
we have the page_type field in struct page, we can use that instead, as
guard pages are neither PageSlab nor mapped to userspace. This reduces
memory overhead when debug_pagealloc is enabled and there are no other
features requiring the page_ext array.

The page allocator checks struct pages for expected state (mapcount,
flags etc) as pages are being allocated (check_new_page()) and freed
(free_pages_check()) to provide some defense against errors in page
allocator users.
Prior commits 479f854a20 ("mm, page_alloc: defer debugging checks of
pages allocated from the PCP") and 4db7548ccb ("mm, page_alloc: defer
debugging checks of freed pages until a PCP drain") this has happened
for order-0 pages as they were allocated from or freed to the per-cpu
caches (pcplists). Since those are fast paths, the checks are now
performed only when pages are moved between pcplists and global free
lists. This however lowers the chances of catching errors soon enough.
In order to increase the chances of the checks to catch errors, the
kernel has to be rebuilt with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM, which also enables
multiple other internal debug checks (VM_BUG_ON() etc), which is
suboptimal when the goal is to catch errors in mm users, not in mm code
itself.
To catch some wrong users of the page allocator we have
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, which is designed to have virtually no overhead
unless enabled at boot time. Memory corruptions when writing to freed
pages have often the same underlying errors (use-after-free, double free)
as corrupting the corresponding struct pages, so this existing debugging
functionality is a good fit to extend by also perform struct page checks
at least as often as if CONFIG_DEBUG_VM was enabled.
Specifically, after this patch, when debug_pagealloc is enabled on boot,
and CONFIG_DEBUG_VM disabled, pages are checked when allocated from or
freed to the pcplists *in addition* to being moved between pcplists and
free lists. When both debug_pagealloc and CONFIG_DEBUG_VM are enabled,
pages are checked when being moved between pcplists and free lists *in
addition* to when allocated from or freed to the pcplists.
When debug_pagealloc is not enabled on boot, the overhead in fast paths
should be virtually none thanks to the use of static key.

Patch series "debug_pagealloc improvements".
I have been recently debugging some pcplist corruptions, where it would be
useful to perform struct page checks immediately as pages are allocated
from and freed to pcplists, which is now only possible by rebuilding the
kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM (details in Patch 2 changelog).
To make this kind of debugging simpler in future on a distro kernel, I
have improved CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC so that it has even smaller overhead
when not enabled at boot time (Patch 1) and also when enabled (Patch 3),
and extended it to perform the struct page checks more often when enabled
(Patch 2). Now it can be configured in when building a distro kernel
without extra overhead, and debugging page use after free or double free
can be enabled simply by rebooting with debug_pagealloc=on.
This patch (of 3):
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC has been redesigned by 031bc5743f
("mm/debug-pagealloc: make debug-pagealloc boottime configurable") to
allow being always enabled in a distro kernel, but only perform its
expensive functionality when booted with debug_pagelloc=on. We can
further reduce the overhead when not boot-enabled (including page
allocator fast paths) using static keys. This patch introduces one for
debug_pagealloc core functionality, and another for the optional guard
page functionality (enabled by booting with debug_guardpage_minorder=X).

When failslab was originally written, the intention of the
"ignore-gfp-wait" flag default value ("N") was to fail GFP_ATOMIC
allocations. Those were defined as (__GFP_HIGH), and the code would test
for __GFP_WAIT (0x10u).
However, since then, __GFP_WAIT was replaced by __GFP_RECLAIM
(___GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM|___GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM), and GFP_ATOMIC is now
defined as (__GFP_HIGH|__GFP_ATOMIC|__GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM).
This means that when the flag is false, almost no allocation ever fails
(as even GFP_ATOMIC allocations contain ___GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM).
Restore the original intent of the code, by ignoring calls that directly
reclaim only (__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM), and thus, failing GFP_ATOMIC calls
again by default.

Patch series "remove ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL where it has no effect".
For several architectures the ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL has no real effect
because the dependencies for the memory model are always evaluated to a
single value.
Remove the ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL from the Kconfigs for these
architectures.
This patch (of 3):
The ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL in arch/arm/Kconfig is enabled only when
ARCH_SPARSEMEM_ENABLE=y. But in this case, ARCH_SPARSEMEM_DEFAULT is also
enabled and this in turn enables SPARSEMEM_MANUAL.
Since there is no definition of ARCH_FLATMEM_ENABLE in arch/arm/Kconfig,
SPARSEMEM_MANUAL is the only enabled memory model, hence the final
selection will evaluate to SPARSEMEM=y.
Since ARCH_SPARSEMEM_ENABLE is set to 'y' only by several sub-arch
configurations, the default for must sub-arches would be the falback to
FLATMEM regardless of ARCH_SELECT_MEMORY_MODEL.

ksize() has been unconditionally unpoisoning the whole shadow memory
region associated with an allocation. This can lead to various undetected
bugs, for example, double-kzfree().
Specifically, kzfree() uses ksize() to determine the actual allocation
size, and subsequently zeroes the memory. Since ksize() used to just
unpoison the whole shadow memory region, no invalid free was detected.
This patch addresses this as follows:
1. Add a check in ksize(), and only then unpoison the memory region.
2. Preserve kasan_unpoison_slab() semantics by explicitly unpoisoning
the shadow memory region using the size obtained from __ksize().
Tested:
1. With SLAB allocator: a) normal boot without warnings; b) verified the
added double-kzfree() is detected.
2. With SLUB allocator: a) normal boot without warnings; b) verified the
added double-kzfree() is detected.

This refactors common code of ksize() between the various allocators into
slab_common.c: __ksize() is the allocator-specific implementation without
instrumentation, whereas ksize() includes the required KASAN logic.

This adds a new header to asm-generic to allow optionally instrumenting
architecture-specific asm implementations of bitops.
This change includes the required change for x86 as reference and
changes the kernel API doc to point to bitops-instrumented.h instead.
Rationale: the functions in x86's bitops.h are no longer the kernel API
functions, but instead the arch_ prefixed functions, which are then
instrumented via bitops-instrumented.h.
Other architectures can similarly add support for asm implementations of
bitops.
The documentation text was derived from x86 and existing bitops
asm-generic versions: 1) references to x86 have been removed; 2) as a
result, some of the text had to be reworded for clarity and consistency.
Tested using lib/test_kasan with bitops tests (pre-requisite patch).

This patch is a pre-requisite for enabling KASAN bitops instrumentation;
using static_cpu_has instead of boot_cpu_has avoids instrumentation of
test_bit inside the uaccess region. With instrumentation, the KASAN
check would otherwise be flagged by objtool.
For consistency, kernel/signal.c was changed to mirror this change,
however, is never instrumented with KASAN (currently unsupported under
x86 32bit).

This adds support for printing stack frame description on invalid stack
accesses. The frame description is embedded by the compiler, which is
parsed and then pretty-printed.
Currently, we can only print the stack frame info for accesses to the
task's own stack, but not accesses to other tasks' stacks.
Example of what it looks like:
page dumped because: kasan: bad access detected
addr ffff8880673ef98a is located in stack of task insmod/2008 at offset 106 in frame:
kasan_stack_oob+0x0/0xf5 [test_kasan]
this frame has 2 objects:
[32, 36) 'i'
[96, 106) 'stack_array'
