Memcg reclaim throttles on congestion if no reclaim progress is made.
This makes little sense, it might be due to writeback or a host of other
factors.
For !memcg reclaim, it's messy. Direct reclaim primarily is throttled
in the page allocator if it is failing to make progress. Kswapd
throttles if too many pages are under writeback and marked for immediate
reclaim.
This patch explicitly throttles if reclaim is failing to make progress.

Memory cgroup charging allows killed or exiting tasks to exceed the hard
limit. It is assumed that the amount of the memory charged by those
tasks is bound and most of the memory will get released while the task
is exiting. This is resembling a heuristic for the global OOM situation
when tasks get access to memory reserves. There is no global memory
shortage at the memcg level so the memcg heuristic is more relieved.
The above assumption is overly optimistic though. E.g. vmalloc can
scale to really large requests and the heuristic would allow that. We
used to have an early break in the vmalloc allocator for killed tasks
but this has been reverted by commit b8c8a338f7 ("Revert "vmalloc:
back off when the current task is killed""). There are likely other
similar code paths which do not check for fatal signals in an
allocation&charge loop. Also there are some kernel objects charged to a
memcg which are not bound to a process life time.
It has been observed that it is not really hard to trigger these
bypasses and cause global OOM situation.
One potential way to address these runaways would be to limit the amount
of excess (similar to the global OOM with limited oom reserves). This
is certainly possible but it is not really clear how much of an excess
is desirable and still protects from global OOMs as that would have to
consider the overall memcg configuration.
This patch is addressing the problem by removing the heuristic
altogether. Bypass is only allowed for requests which either cannot
fail or where the failure is not desirable while excess should be still
limited (e.g. atomic requests). Implementation wise a killed or dying
task fails to charge if it has passed the OOM killer stage. That should
give all forms of reclaim chance to restore the limit before the failure
(ENOMEM) and tell the caller to back off.
In addition, this patch renames should_force_charge() helper to
task_is_dying() because now its use is not associated witch forced
charging.
This patch depends on pagefault_out_of_memory() to not trigger
out_of_memory(), because then a memcg failure can unwind to VM_FAULT_OOM
and cause a global OOM killer.

Since slab objects and kmem pages are charged to object cgroup instead

all its descendants to its parent cgroup. This already makes further
list_lru_add()'s add elements to the parent's list. So it is
unnecessary to change kmemcg_id of an offline cgroup to its parent's id.
It just wastes CPU cycles. Just remove the redundant code.

The memcg stats can be flushed in multiple context and potentially in
parallel too. For example multiple parallel user space readers for
memcg stats will contend on the rstat locks with each other. There is
no need for that. We just need one flusher and everyone else can
benefit.
In addition after aa48e47e39 ("memcg: infrastructure to flush memcg
stats") the kernel periodically flush the memcg stats from the root, so,
the other flushers will potentially have much less work to do.

At the moment, the kernel flushes the memcg stats on every refault and
also on every reclaim iteration. Although rstat maintains per-cpu
update tree but on the flush the kernel still has to go through all the
cpu rstat update tree to check if there is anything to flush. This
patch adds the tracking on the stats update side to make flush side more
clever by skipping the flush if there is no update.
The stats update codepath is very sensitive performance wise for many
workloads and benchmarks. So, we can not follow what the commit
aa48e47e39 ("memcg: infrastructure to flush memcg stats") did which
was triggering async flush through queue_work() and caused a lot
performance regression reports. That got reverted by the commit
1f828223b7 ("memcg: flush lruvec stats in the refault").
In this patch we kept the stats update codepath very minimal and let the
stats reader side to flush the stats only when the updates are over a
specific threshold. For now the threshold is (nr_cpus * CHARGE_BATCH).
To evaluate the impact of this patch, an 8 GiB tmpfs file is created on
a system with swap-on-zram and the file was pushed to swap through
memory.force_empty interface. On reading the whole file, the memcg stat
flush in the refault code path is triggered. With this patch, we
observed 63% reduction in the read time of 8 GiB file.

Prior to the commit 7e1c0d6f58 ("memcg: switch lruvec stats to rstat")
and the commit aa48e47e39 ("memcg: infrastructure to flush memcg
stats"), each lruvec memcg stats can be off by (nr_cgroups * nr_cpus *
32) at worst and for unbounded amount of time. The commit aa48e47e39
moved the lruvec stats to rstat infrastructure and the commit
7e1c0d6f58 bounded the error for all the lruvec stats to (nr_cpus *
32) at worst for at most 2 seconds. More specifically it decoupled the
number of stats and the number of cgroups from the error rate.
However this reduction in error comes with the cost of triggering the
slowpath of stats update more frequently. Previously in the slowpath
the kernel adds the stats up the memcg tree. After aa48e47e39, the
kernel triggers the asyn lruvec stats flush through queue_work(). This
causes regression reports from 0day kernel bot [1] as well as from
phoronix test suite [2].
We tried two options to fix the regression:
1) Increase the threshold to trigger the slowpath in lruvec stats
update codepath from 32 to 512.
2) Remove the slowpath from lruvec stats update codepath and instead
flush the stats in the page refault codepath. The assumption is that
the kernel timely flush the stats, so, the update tree would be
small in the refault codepath to not cause the preformance impact.
Following are the results of will-it-scale/page_fault[1|2|3] benchmark
on four settings i.e. (1) 5.15-rc1 as baseline (2) 5.15-rc1 with
aa48e47e39 and 7e1c0d6f58 reverted (3) 5.15-rc1 with option-1
(4) 5.15-rc1 with option-2.
test (1) (2) (3) (4)
pg_f1 368563 406277 (10.23%) 399693 (8.44%) 416398 (12.97%)
pg_f2 338399 372133 (9.96%) 369180 (9.09%) 381024 (12.59%)
pg_f3 500853 575399 (14.88%) 570388 (13.88%) 576083 (15.02%)
From the above result, it seems like the option-2 not only solves the
regression but also improves the performance for at least these
benchmarks.
Feng Tang (intel) ran the aim7 benchmark with these two options and
confirms that option-1 reduces the regression but option-2 removes the
regression.
Michael Larabel (phoronix) ran multiple benchmarks with these options
and reported the results at [3] and it shows for most benchmarks
option-2 removes the regression introduced by the commit aa48e47e39
("memcg: infrastructure to flush memcg stats").

The memcg->event_list_lock is usually taken in the normal context but when
the userspace closes the corresponding eventfd, eventfd_release through
memcg_event_wake takes memcg->event_list_lock with interrupts disabled.
This is not an issue on its own but it creates a nested dependency from
eventfd_ctx->wqh.lock to memcg->event_list_lock.
Independently, for unrelated eventfd, eventfd_signal() can be called in
the irq context, thus making eventfd_ctx->wqh.lock an irq lock. For
example, FPGA DFL driver, VHOST VPDA driver and couple of VFIO drivers.
This will force memcg->event_list_lock to be an irqsafe lock as well.
One way to break the nested dependency between eventfd_ctx->wqh.lock and
memcg->event_list_lock is to add an indirection. However the simplest
solution would be to make memcg->event_list_lock irqsafe. This is cgroup
v1 feature, is in maintenance and may get deprecated in near future. So,
no need to add more code.
BTW this has been discussed previously [1] but there weren't irq users of
eventfd_signal() at the time.

At the moment memcg stats are read in four contexts:
1. memcg stat user interfaces
2. dirty throttling
3. page fault
4. memory reclaim
Currently the kernel flushes the stats for first two cases. Flushing the
stats for remaining two casese may have performance impact. Always
flushing the memcg stats on the page fault code path may negatively
impacts the performance of the applications. In addition flushing in the
memory reclaim code path, though treated as slowpath, can become the
source of contention for the global lock taken for stat flushing because
when system or memcg is under memory pressure, many tasks may enter the
reclaim path.
This patch uses following mechanisms to solve these challenges:
1. Periodically flush the stats from root memcg every 2 seconds. This
will time limit the out of sync stats.
2. Asynchronously flush the stats after fixed number of stat updates.
In the worst case the stat can be out of sync by O(nr_cpus * BATCH) for
2 seconds.
3. For avoiding thundering herd to flush the stats particularly from
the memory reclaim context, introduce memcg local spinlock and let only
one flusher active at a time. This could have been done through
cgroup_rstat_lock lock but that lock is used by other subsystem and for
userspace reading memcg stats. So, it is better to keep flushers
introduced by this patch decoupled from cgroup_rstat_lock. However we
would have to use irqsafe version of rstat flush but that is fine as
this code path will be flushing for whole tree and do the work for
everyone. No one will be waiting for that worker.

The commit 2d146aa3aa ("mm: memcontrol: switch to rstat") switched memcg
stats to rstat infrastructure but skipped the conversion of the lruvec
stats as such stats are read in the performance critical code paths and
flushing stats may have impacted the performances of the applications.
This patch converts the lruvec stats to rstat and later patches add
mechanisms to keep the performance impact to minimum.
The rstat conversion comes with the price i.e. memory cost. Effectively
this patch reverts the savings done by the commit f3344adf38 ("mm:
memcontrol: optimize per-lruvec stats counter memory usage"). However
this cost is justified due to negative impact of the inaccurate lruvec
stats on many heuristics. One such case is reported in [1].
The memory reclaim code is filled with plethora of heuristics and many of
those heuristics reads the lruvec stats. So, inaccurate stats can make
such heuristics ineffective. [1] reports the impact of inaccurate lruvec
stats on the "cache trim mode" heuristic. Inaccurate lruvec stats can
impact the deactivation and aging anon heuristics as well.

cgroup_writeback_by_id() is only called for best-effort dirty flushing, so
remove the unused 'nr' parameter and no need to explicitly flush memcg

Dan Carpenter reports:
The patch 2d146aa3aa84: "mm: memcontrol: switch to rstat" from Apr
29, 2021, leads to the following static checker warning:
kernel/cgroup/rstat.c:200 cgroup_rstat_flush()
warn: sleeping in atomic context
mm/memcontrol.c
3572 static unsigned long mem_cgroup_usage(struct mem_cgroup *memcg, bool swap)
3573 {
3574 unsigned long val;
3575
3576 if (mem_cgroup_is_root(memcg)) {
3577 cgroup_rstat_flush(memcg->css.cgroup);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is from static analysis and potentially a false positive. The
problem is that mem_cgroup_usage() is called from __mem_cgroup_threshold()
which holds an rcu_read_lock(). And the cgroup_rstat_flush() function
can sleep.
3578 val = memcg_page_state(memcg, NR_FILE_PAGES) +
3579 memcg_page_state(memcg, NR_ANON_MAPPED);
3580 if (swap)
3581 val += memcg_page_state(memcg, MEMCG_SWAP);
3582 } else {
3583 if (!swap)
3584 val = page_counter_read(&memcg->memory);
3585 else
3586 val = page_counter_read(&memcg->memsw);
3587 }
3588 return val;
3589 }
__mem_cgroup_threshold() indeed holds the rcu lock. In addition, the
thresholding code is invoked during stat changes, and those contexts
have irqs disabled as well. If the lock breaking occurs inside the
flush function, it will result in a sleep from an atomic context.
Use the irqsafe flushing variant in mem_cgroup_usage() to fix this.

An netadmin inside container can use 'ip a a' and 'ip r a'
to assign a large number of ipv4/ipv6 addresses and routing entries
and force kernel to allocate megabytes of unaccounted memory
for long-lived per-netdevice related kernel objects:
'struct in_ifaddr', 'struct inet6_ifaddr', 'struct fib6_node',
'struct rt6_info', 'struct fib_rules' and ip_fib caches.
These objects can be manually removed, though usually they lives
in memory till destroy of its net namespace.
It makes sense to account for them to restrict the host's memory
consumption from inside the memcg-limited container.
One of such objects is the 'struct fib6_node' mostly allocated in
net/ipv6/route.c::__ip6_ins_rt() inside the lock_bh()/unlock_bh() section:
write_lock_bh(&table->tb6_lock);
err = fib6_add(&table->tb6_root, rt, info, mxc);
write_unlock_bh(&table->tb6_lock);
In this case it is not enough to simply add SLAB_ACCOUNT to corresponding
kmem cache. The proper memory cgroup still cannot be found due to the
incorrect 'in_interrupt()' check used in memcg_kmem_bypass().
Obsoleted in_interrupt() does not describe real execution context properly.
>From include/linux/preempt.h:
The following macros are deprecated and should not be used in new code:
in_interrupt() - We're in NMI,IRQ,SoftIRQ context or have BH disabled
