From fce66477578d081f19aef5ea218664ff7758c33a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daisuke Nishimura Date: Fri, 15 Jan 2010 17:01:30 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] memcg: ensure list is empty at rmdir Current mem_cgroup_force_empty() only ensures mem->res.usage == 0 on success. But this doesn't guarantee memcg's LRU is really empty, because there are some cases in which !PageCgrupUsed pages exist on memcg's LRU. For example: - Pages can be uncharged by its owner process while they are on LRU. - race between mem_cgroup_add_lru_list() and __mem_cgroup_uncharge_common(). So there can be a case in which the usage is zero but some of the LRUs are not empty. OTOH, mem_cgroup_del_lru_list(), which can be called asynchronously with rmdir, accesses the mem_cgroup, so this access can cause a problem if it races with rmdir because the mem_cgroup might have been freed by rmdir. Actually, I saw a bug which seems to be caused by this race.

The problem here is pages on LRU may contain pointer to stale memcg. To make res->usage to be 0, all pages on memcg must be uncharged or moved to another(parent) memcg. Moved page_cgroup have already removed from original LRU, but uncharged page_cgroup contains pointer to memcg withou PCG_USED bit. (This asynchronous LRU work is for improving performance.) If PCG_USED bit is not set, page_cgroup will never be added to memcg's LRU. So, about pages not on LRU, they never access stale pointer. Then, what we have to take care of is page_cgroup _on_ LRU list. This patch fixes this problem by making mem_cgroup_force_empty() visit all LRUs before exiting its loop and guarantee there are no pages on its LRU.
