mm: memcg: link page counters to root if use_hierarchy is false
Richard reported a warning which can be reproduced by running the LTP madvise6 test (cgroup v1 in the non-hierarchical mode should be used): WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 12 at mm/page_counter.c:57 page_counter_uncharge (mm/page_counter.c:57 mm/page_counter.c:50 mm/page_counter.c:156) Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 12 Comm: kworker/0:1 Not tainted 5.9.0-rc7-22-default #77 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.13.0-48-gd9c812d-rebuilt.opensuse.org 04/01/2014 Workqueue: events drain_local_stock RIP: 0010:page_counter_uncharge (mm/page_counter.c:57 mm/page_counter.c:50 mm/page_counter.c:156) Call Trace: __memcg_kmem_uncharge (mm/memcontrol.c:3022) drain_obj_stock (./include/linux/rcupdate.h:689 mm/memcontrol.c:3114) drain_local_stock (mm/memcontrol.c:2255) process_one_work (./arch/x86/include/asm/jump_label.h:25 ./include/linux/jump_label.h:200 ./include/trace/events/workqueue.h:108 kernel/workqueue.c:2274) worker_thread (./include/linux/list.h:282 kernel/workqueue.c:2416) kthread (kernel/kthread.c:292) ret_from_fork (arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:300) The problem occurs because in the non-hierarchical mode non-root page counters are not linked to root page counters, so the charge is not propagated to the root memory cgroup. After the removal of the original memory cgroup and reparenting of the object cgroup, the root cgroup might be uncharged by draining a objcg stock, for example. It leads to an eventual underflow of the charge and triggers a warning. Fix it by linking all page counters to corresponding root page counters in the non-hierarchical mode. Please note, that in the non-hierarchical mode all objcgs are always reparented to the root memory cgroup, even if the hierarchy has more than 1 level. This patch doesn't change it. The patch also doesn't affect how the hierarchical mode is working, which is the only sane and truly supported mode now. Thanks to Richard for reporting, debugging and providing an alternative version of the fix!
