__memcg_kmem_bypass() decides whether a kmem allocation should be bypassed
to the root memcg.  Some conditions that it tests are valid criteria
regarding who should be held accountable; however, there are a couple
unnecessary tests for cold paths - __GFP_FAIL and fatal_signal_pending().

The previous patch updated try_charge() to handle both __GFP_FAIL and
dying tasks correctly and the only thing these two tests are doing is
making accounting less accurate and sprinkling tests for cold path
conditions in the hot paths.  There's nothing meaningful gained by these
extra tests.

This patch removes the two unnecessary tests from __memcg_kmem_bypass().

try_charge() is the main charging logic of memcg.  When it hits the limit
but either can't fail the allocation due to __GFP_NOFAIL or the task is
likely to free memory very soon, being OOM killed, has SIGKILL pending or
exiting, it "bypasses" the charge to the root memcg and returns -EINTR.
While this is one approach which can be taken for these situations, it has
several issues.

* It unnecessarily lies about the reality.  The number itself doesn't
  go over the limit but the actual usage does.  memcg is either forced
  to or actively chooses to go over the limit because that is the
  right behavior under the circumstances, which is completely fine,
  but, if at all avoidable, it shouldn't be misrepresenting what's
  happening by sneaking the charges into the root memcg.

* Despite trying, we already do over-charge.  kmemcg can't deal with
  switching over to the root memcg by the point try_charge() returns
  -EINTR, so it open-codes over-charing.

* It complicates the callers.  Each try_charge() user has to handle
  the weird -EINTR exception.  memcg_charge_kmem() does the manual
  over-charging.  mem_cgroup_do_precharge() performs unnecessary
  uncharging of root memcg, which BTW is inconsistent with what
  memcg_charge_kmem() does but not broken as [un]charging are noops on
  root memcg.  mem_cgroup_try_charge() needs to switch the returned
  cgroup to the root one.

The reality is that in memcg there are cases where we are forced and/or
willing to go over the limit.  Each such case needs to be scrutinized and
justified but there definitely are situations where that is the right
thing to do.  We alredy do this but with a superficial and inconsistent
disguise which leads to unnecessary complications.

This patch updates try_charge() so that it over-charges and returns 0 when
deemed necessary.  -EINTR return is removed along with all special case
handling in the callers.

While at it, remove the local variable @ret, which was initialized to zero
and never changed, along with done: label which just returned the always
zero @ret.

Currently, try_charge() tries to reclaim memory synchronously when the
high limit is breached; however, if the allocation doesn't have
__GFP_WAIT, synchronous reclaim is skipped.  If a process performs only
speculative allocations, it can blow way past the high limit.  This is
actually easily reproducible by simply doing "find /".  slab/slub
allocator tries speculative allocations first, so as long as there's
memory which can be consumed without blocking, it can keep allocating
memory regardless of the high limit.

This patch makes try_charge() always punt the over-high reclaim to the
return-to-userland path.  If try_charge() detects that high limit is
breached, it adds the overage to current->memcg_nr_pages_over_high and
schedules execution of mem_cgroup_handle_over_high() which performs
synchronous reclaim from the return-to-userland path.

As long as kernel doesn't have a run-away allocation spree, this should
provide enough protection while making kmemcg behave more consistently.
It also has the following benefits.

- All over-high reclaims can use GFP_KERNEL regardless of the specific
  gfp mask in use, e.g. GFP_NOFS, when the limit was breached.

- It copes with prio inversion.  Previously, a low-prio task with
  small memory.high might perform over-high reclaim with a bunch of
  locks held.  If a higher prio task needed any of these locks, it
  would have to wait until the low prio task finished reclaim and
  released the locks.  By handing over-high reclaim to the task exit
  path this issue can be avoided.

task_struct->memcg_oom is a sub-struct containing fields which are used
for async memcg oom handling.  Most task_struct fields aren't packaged
this way and it can lead to unnecessary alignment paddings.  This patch
flattens it.

* task.memcg_oom.memcg          -> task.memcg_in_oom
* task.memcg_oom.gfp_mask	-> task.memcg_oom_gfp_mask
* task.memcg_oom.order          -> task.memcg_oom_order
* task.memcg_oom.may_oom        -> task.memcg_may_oom

In addition, task.memcg_may_oom is relocated to where other bitfields are
which reduces the size of task_struct.

probe_kernel_address() is basically the same as the (later added)
probe_kernel_read().

The return value on EFAULT is a bit different: probe_kernel_address()
returns number-of-bytes-not-copied whereas probe_kernel_read() returns
-EFAULT.  All callers have been checked, none cared.

probe_kernel_read() can be overridden by the architecture whereas
probe_kernel_address() cannot.  parisc, blackfin and um do this, to insert
additional checking.  Hence this patch possibly fixes obscure bugs,
although there are only two probe_kernel_address() callsites outside
arch/.

My first attempt involved removing probe_kernel_address() entirely and
converting all callsites to use probe_kernel_read() directly, but that got
tiresome.

This patch shrinks mm/slab_common.o by 218 bytes.  For a single
probe_kernel_address() callsite.

On systems with a KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE of 128 (arm64, some mips and powerpc
configurations defining ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to 128), the first
kmalloc_caches[] entry to be initialised after slab_early_init = 0 is
"kmalloc-128" with index 7.  Depending on the debug kernel configuration,
sizeof(struct kmem_cache) can be larger than 128 resulting in an
INDEX_NODE of 8.

Commit 8fc9cf42 ("slab: make more slab management structure off the
slab") enables off-slab management objects for sizes starting with
PAGE_SIZE >> 5 (128 bytes for a 4KB page configuration) and the creation
of the "kmalloc-128" cache would try to place the management objects
off-slab.  However, since KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE is already 128 and
freelist_size == 32 in __kmem_cache_create(), kmalloc_slab(freelist_size)
returns NULL (kmalloc_caches[7] not populated yet).  This triggers the
following bug on arm64:

In slub_order(), the order starts from max(min_order,
get_order(min_objects * size)).  When (min_objects * size) has different

This patch optimizes this a little by calculating the start order with

This patchset adds 'extended' slabinfo mode that provides additional
information:

 -- totals summary
 -- slabs sorted by size
 -- slabs sorted by loss (waste)

The patches also introduces several new slabinfo options to limit the
number of slabs reported, sort slabs by loss (waste); and some fixes.

Extended output example (slabinfo -X -N 2):

The last patch in the series addresses Linus' comment from
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=144148518703321&w=2

(well, it's been some time. sorry.)

gnuplot script takes the slabinfo records file, where every record is a `slabinfo -X'
output. So the basic workflow is, for example, as follows:

        while [ 1 ]; do slabinfo -X -N 2 >> stats; sleep 1; done
        ^C
        slabinfo-gnuplot.sh stats

The last command will produce 3 png files (and 3 stats files)
-- graph of slabinfo totals
-- graph of slabs by size
-- graph of slabs by loss

It's also possible to select a range of records for plotting (a range of collected
slabinfo outputs) via `-r 10,100` (for example); and compare totals from several
measurements (to visially compare slabs behaviour (10,50 range)) using
pre-parsed totals files:
        slabinfo-gnuplot.sh -r 10,50 -t stats-totals1 .. stats-totals2

This also, technically, supports ktest. Upload new slabinfo to target,
collect the stats and give the resulting stats file to slabinfo-gnuplot

Currently, when kmem_cache_destroy() is called for a global cache, we
print a warning for each per memcg cache attached to it that has active
objects (see shutdown_cache).  This is redundant, because it gives no new
information and only clutters the log.  If a cache being destroyed has
active objects, there must be a memory leak in the module that created the
cache, and it does not matter if the cache was used by users in memory
cgroups or not.

This patch moves the warning from shutdown_cache(), which is called for
shutting down both global and per memcg caches, to kmem_cache_destroy(),
so that the warning is only printed once if there are objects left in the
cache being destroyed.

Currently, we do not clear pointers to per memcg caches in the
memcg_params.memcg_caches array when a global cache is destroyed with
kmem_cache_destroy.

This is fine if the global cache does get destroyed.  However, a cache can
be left on the list if it still has active objects when kmem_cache_destroy
is called (due to a memory leak).  If this happens, the entries in the
array will point to already freed areas, which is likely to result in data
corruption when the cache is reused (via slab merging).

do_kmem_cache_create(), do_kmem_cache_shutdown(), and
do_kmem_cache_release() sound awkward for static helper functions that are
not supposed to be used outside slab_common.c.  Rename them to
create_cache(), shutdown_cache(), and release_caches(), respectively.
This patch is a pure cleanup and does not introduce any functional

The patch "slab.h: sprinkle __assume_aligned attributes" causes *tons* of
whinges if you do 'make C=2' with sparse 0.5.0:

sparse apparently pretends to be gcc >= 4.9, yet isn't prepared to handle
all the function attributes supported by those gccs and complains loudly.
So hide the definition of __assume_aligned from it (so that the generic
one in compiler.h gets used).

gcc 4.9 added the function attribute assume_aligned, indicating to the
caller that the returned pointer may be assumed to have a certain minimal
alignment.  This is useful if, for example, the return value is passed to
memset().  Add a shorthand macro for that.

Theoretically it is possible that the watchdog timer expires right at the
time when a user sets 'watchdog_thresh' to zero (note: this disables the
lockup detectors).  In this scenario, the is_softlockup() function - which
is called by the timer - could produce a false positive.

Fix this by checking the current value of 'watchdog_thresh'.

The handler functions for watchdog parameters in /proc/sys/kernel do not
protect themselves against races with CPU hotplug.  Hence, theoretically
it is possible that a new watchdog thread is started on a hotplugged CPU
while a parameter is being modified, and the thread could thus use a
parameter value that is 'in transition'.

For example, if 'watchdog_thresh' is being set to zero (note: this
disables the lockup detectors) the thread would erroneously use the value
zero as the sample period.

To avoid such races and to keep the /proc handler code consistent,
call
     {get|put}_online_cpus() in proc_watchdog_common()
     {get|put}_online_cpus() in proc_watchdog_thresh()
     {get|put}_online_cpus() in proc_watchdog_cpumask()

The lockup detector suspend/resume interface that was introduced by
commit 8c073d27 ("watchdog: introduce watchdog_suspend() and
watchdog_resume()") does not protect itself against races with CPU
hotplug.  Hence, theoretically it is possible that a new watchdog thread
is started on a hotplugged CPU while the lockup detector is suspended,
and the thread could thus interfere unexpectedly with the code that
requested to suspend the lockup detector.

Avoid the race by calling

  get_online_cpus() in lockup_detector_suspend()
  put_online_cpus() in lockup_detector_resume()

In many cases of hardlockup reports, it's actually not possible to know
why it triggered, because the CPU that got stuck is usually waiting on a
resource (with IRQs disabled) in posession of some other CPU is holding.

IOW, we are often looking at the stacktrace of the victim and not the
actual offender.

Introduce sysctl / cmdline parameter that makes it possible to have
hardlockup detector perform all-CPU backtrace.

If kthread_park() returns an error, watchdog_park_threads() should not
blindly 'roll back' the already parked threads to the unparked state.
Instead leave it up to the callers to handle such errors appropriately in
their context.  For example, it is redundant to unpark the threads if the
lockup detectors will soon be disabled by the callers anyway.
