We're trying to use memory.high to limit workloads, but have found that containment can frequently fail completely and cause OOM situations outside of the cgroup. This happens especially with swap space -- either when none is configured, or swap is full. These failures often also don't have enough warning to allow one to react, whether for a human or for a daemon monitoring PSI. Here is output from a simple program showing how long it takes in usec (column 2) to allocate a megabyte of anonymous memory (column 1) when a cgroup is already beyond its memory high setting, and no swap is available: [root@ktst ~]# systemd-run -p MemoryHigh=100M -p MemorySwapMax=1 \ > --wait -t timeout 300 /root/mdf [...] 95 1035 96 1038 97 1000 98 1036 99 1048 100 1590 101 1968 102 1776 103 1863 104 1757 105 1921 106 1893 107 1760 108 1748 109 1843 110 1716 111 1924 112 1776 113 1831 114 1766 115 1836 116 1588 117 1912 118 1802 119 1857 120 1731 [...] [System OOM in 2-3 seconds] The delay does go up extremely marginally past the 100MB memory.high threshold, as now we spend time scanning before returning to usermode, but it's nowhere near enough to contain growth. It also doesn't get worse the more pages you have, since it only considers nr_pages. The current situation goes against both the expectations of users of memory.high, and our intentions as cgroup v2 developers. In cgroup-v2.txt, we claim that we will throttle and only under "extreme conditions" will memory.high protection be breached. Likewise, cgroup v2 users generally also expect that memory.high should throttle workloads as they exceed their high threshold. However, as seen above, this isn't always how it works in practice -- even on banal setups like those with no swap, or where swap has become exhausted, we can end up with memory.high being breached and us having no weapons left in our arsenal to combat runaway growth with, since reclaim is futile. It's also hard for system monitoring software or users to tell how bad the situation is, as "high" events for the memcg may in some cases be benign, and in others be catastrophic. The current status quo is that we fail containment in a way that doesn't provide any advance warning that things are about to go horribly wrong (for example, we are about to invoke the kernel OOM killer). This patch introduces explicit throttling when reclaim is failing to keep memcg size contained at the memory.high setting. It does so by applying an exponential delay curve derived from the memcg's overage compared to memory.high. In the normal case where the memcg is either below or only marginally over its memory.high setting, no throttling will be performed. This composes well with system health monitoring and remediation, as these allocator delays are factored into PSI's memory pressure calculations. This both creates a mechanism system administrators or applications consuming the PSI interface to trivially see that the memcg in question is struggling and use that to make more reasonable decisions, and permits them enough time to act. Either of these can act with significantly more nuance than that we can provide using the system OOM killer. This is a similar idea to memory.oom_control in cgroup v1 which would put the cgroup to sleep if the threshold was violated, but it's also significantly improved as it results in visible memory pressure, and also doesn't schedule indefinitely, which previously made tracing and other introspection difficult (ie. it's clamped at 2*HZ per allocation through MEMCG_MAX_HIGH_DELAY_JIFFIES). Contrast the previous results with a kernel with this patch: [root@ktst ~]# systemd-run -p MemoryHigh=100M -p MemorySwapMax=1 \ > --wait -t timeout 300 /root/mdf [...] 95 1002 96 1000 97 1002 98 1003 99 1000 100 1043 101 84724 102 330628 103 610511 104 1016265 105 1503969 106 2391692 107 2872061 108 3248003 109 4791904 110 5759832 111 6912509 112 8127818 113 9472203 114 12287622 115 12480079 116 14144008 117 15808029 118 16384500 119 16383242 120 16384979 [...] As you can see, in the normal case, memory allocation takes around 1000 usec. However, as we exceed our memory.high, things start to increase exponentially, but fairly leniently at first. Our first megabyte over memory.high takes us 0.16 seconds, then the next is 0.46 seconds, then the next is almost an entire second. This gets worse until we reach our eventual 2*HZ clamp per batch, resulting in 16 seconds per megabyte. However, this is still making forward progress, so permits tracing or further analysis with programs like GDB. We use an exponential curve for our delay penalty for a few reasons: 1. We run mem_cgroup_handle_over_high to potentially do reclaim after we've already performed allocations, which means that temporarily going over memory.high by a small amount may be perfectly legitimate, even for compliant workloads. We don't want to unduly penalise such cases. 2. An exponential curve (as opposed to a static or linear delay) allows ramping up memory pressure stats more gradually, which can be useful to work out that you have set memory.high too low, without destroying application performance entirely. This patch expands on earlier work by Johannes Weiner. Thanks!

mm, memcg: partially revert "mm/memcontrol.c: keep local VM counters in sync with the hierarchical ones" Commit 766a4c19 ("mm/memcontrol.c: keep local VM counters in sync with the hierarchical ones") effectively decreased the precision of per-memcg vmstats_local and per-memcg-per-node lruvec percpu counters. That's good for displaying in memory.stat, but brings a serious regression into the reclaim process. One issue I've discovered and debugged is the following: lruvec_lru_size() can return 0 instead of the actual number of pages in the lru list, preventing the kernel to reclaim last remaining pages. Result is yet another dying memory cgroups flooding. The opposite is also happening: scanning an empty lru list is the waste of cpu time. Also, inactive_list_is_low() can return incorrect values, preventing the active lru from being scanned and freed. It can fail both because the size of active and inactive lists are inaccurate, and because the number of workingset refaults isn't precise. In other words, the result is pretty random. I'm not sure, if using the approximate number of slab pages in count_shadow_number() is acceptable, but issues described above are enough to partially revert the patch. Let's keep per-memcg vmstat_local batched (they are only used for displaying stats to the userspace), but keep lruvec stats precise. This change fixes the dead memcg flooding on my setup.

I've noticed that the "slab" value in memory.stat is sometimes 0, even if some children memory cgroups have a non-zero "slab" value. The following investigation showed that this is the result of the kmem_cache reparenting in combination with the per-cpu batching of slab vmstats. At the offlining some vmstat value may leave in the percpu cache, not being propagated upwards by the cgroup hierarchy. It means that stats on ancestor levels are lower than actual. Later when slab pages are released, the precise number of pages is substracted on the parent level, making the value negative. We don't show negative values, 0 is printed instead. To fix this issue, let's flush percpu slab memcg and lruvec stats on memcg offlining. This guarantees that numbers on all ancestor levels are accurate and match the actual number of outstanding slab pages.

There's an inherent mismatch between memcg and writeback. The former trackes ownership per-page while the latter per-inode. This was a deliberate design decision because honoring per-page ownership in the writeback path is complicated, may lead to higher CPU and IO overheads and deemed unnecessary given that write-sharing an inode across different cgroups isn't a common use-case. Combined with inode majority-writer ownership switching, this works well enough in most cases but there are some pathological cases. For example, let's say there are two cgroups A and B which keep writing to different but confined parts of the same inode. B owns the inode and A's memory is limited far below B's. A's dirty ratio can rise enough to trigger balance_dirty_pages() sleeps but B's can be low enough to avoid triggering background writeback. A will be slowed down without a way to make writeback of the dirty pages happen. This patch implements foreign dirty recording and foreign mechanism so that when a memcg encounters a condition as above it can trigger flushes on bdi_writebacks which can clean its pages. Please see the comment on top of mem_cgroup_track_foreign_dirty_slowpath() for details.

Similar to vmstats, percpu caching of local vmevents leads to an accumulation of errors on non-leaf levels. This happens because some leftovers may remain in percpu caches, so that they are never propagated up by the cgroup tree and just disappear into nonexistence with on releasing of the memory cgroup. To fix this issue let's accumulate and propagate percpu vmevents values before releasing the memory cgroup similar to what we're doing with vmstats. Since on cpu hotplug we do flush percpu vmstats anyway, we can iterate only over online cpus.

Percpu caching of local vmstats with the conditional propagation by the cgroup tree leads to an accumulation of errors on non-leaf levels. Let's imagine two nested memory cgroups A and A/B. Say, a process belonging to A/B allocates 100 pagecache pages on the CPU 0. The percpu cache will spill 3 times, so that 32*3=96 pages will be accounted to A/B and A atomic vmstat counters, 4 pages will remain in the percpu cache. Imagine A/B is nearby memory.max, so that every following allocation triggers a direct reclaim on the local CPU. Say, each such attempt will free 16 pages on a new cpu. That means every percpu cache will have -16 pages, except the first one, which will have 4 - 16 = -12. A/B and A atomic counters will not be touched at all. Now a user removes A/B. All percpu caches are freed and corresponding vmstat numbers are forgotten. A has 96 pages more than expected. As memory cgroups are created and destroyed, errors do accumulate. Even 1-2 pages differences can accumulate into large numbers. To fix this issue let's accumulate and propagate percpu vmstat values before releasing the memory cgroup. At this point these numbers are stable and cannot be changed. Since on cpu hotplug we do flush percpu vmstats anyway, we can iterate only over online cpus.

Memcg counters for shadow nodes are broken because the memcg pointer is obtained in a wrong way. The following approach is used: virt_to_page(xa_node)->mem_cgroup Since commit 4d96ba35 ("mm: memcg/slab: stop setting page->mem_cgroup pointer for slab pages") page->mem_cgroup pointer isn't set for slab pages, so memcg_from_slab_page() should be used instead. Also I doubt that it ever worked correctly: virt_to_head_page() should be used instead of virt_to_page(). Otherwise objects residing on tail pages are not accounted, because only the head page contains a valid mem_cgroup pointer. That was a case since the introduction of these counters by the commit 68d48e6a ("mm: workingset: add vmstat counter for shadow nodes").

After commit 815744d7 ("mm: memcontrol: don't batch updates of local VM stats and events"), the local VM counter are not in sync with the hierarchical ones. Below is one example in a leaf memcg on my server (with 8 CPUs): inactive_file 3567570944 total_inactive_file 3568029696 We find that the deviation is very great because the 'val' in __mod_memcg_state() is in pages while the effective value in memcg_stat_show() is in bytes. So the maximum of this deviation between local VM stats and total VM stats can be (32 * number_of_cpu * PAGE_SIZE), that may be an unacceptably great value. We should keep the local VM stats in sync with the total stats. In order to keep this behavior the same across counters, this patch updates __mod_lruvec_state() and __count_memcg_events() as well.

oom_unkillable_task() can be called from three different contexts i.e. global OOM, memcg OOM and oom_score procfs interface. At the moment oom_unkillable_task() does a task_in_mem_cgroup() check on the given process. Since there is no reason to perform task_in_mem_cgroup() check for global OOM and oom_score procfs interface, those contexts provide NULL memcg and skips the task_in_mem_cgroup() check. However for memcg OOM context, the oom_unkillable_task() is always called from mem_cgroup_scan_tasks() and thus task_in_mem_cgroup() check becomes redundant and effectively dead code. So, just remove the task_in_mem_cgroup() check altogether.

Let's reparent non-root kmem_caches on memcg offlining. This allows us to release the memory cgroup without waiting for the last outstanding kernel object (e.g. dentry used by another application). Since the parent cgroup is already charged, everything we need to do is to splice the list of kmem_caches to the parent's kmem_caches list, swap the memcg pointer, drop the css refcounter for each kmem_cache and adjust the parent's css refcounter. Please, note that kmem_cache->memcg_params.memcg isn't a stable pointer anymore. It's safe to read it under rcu_read_lock(), cgroup_mutex held, or any other way that protects the memory cgroup from being released. We can race with the slab allocation and deallocation paths. It's not a big problem: parent's charge and slab global stats are always correct, and we don't care anymore about the child usage and global stats. The child cgroup is already offline, so we don't use or show it anywhere. Local slab stats (NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE and NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE) aren't used anywhere except count_shadow_nodes(). But even there it won't break anything: after reparenting "nodes" will be 0 on child level (because we're already reparenting shrinker lists), and on parent level page stats always were 0, and this patch won't change anything.

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 (stolen from another patchset by T.

The current cgroup OOM memory info dump doesn't include all the memory we are tracking, nor does it give insight into what the VM tried to do leading up to the OOM. All that useful info is in memory.stat. Furthermore, the recursive printing for every child cgroup can generate absurd amounts of data on the console for larger cgroup trees, and it's not like we provide a per-cgroup breakdown during global OOM kills.

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.

The kernel test robot noticed a 26% will-it-scale pagefault regression from commit 42a30035 ("mm: memcontrol: fix recursive statistics correctness & scalabilty"). This appears to be caused by bouncing the additional cachelines from the new hierarchical statistics counters. We can fix this by getting rid of the batched local counters instead. Originally, there were *only* group-local counters, and they were fully maintained per cpu. A reader of a stats file high up in the cgroup tree would have to walk the entire subtree and collect each level's per-cpu counters to get the recursive view. This was prohibitively expensive, and so we switched to per-cpu batched updates of the local counters during a983b5eb ("mm: memcontrol: fix excessive complexity in memory.stat reporting"), reducing the complexity from nr_subgroups * nr_cpus to nr_subgroups. With growing machines and cgroup trees, the tree walk itself became too expensive for monitoring top-level groups, and this is when the culprit patch added hierarchy counters on each cgroup level. When the per-cpu batch size would be reached, both the local and the hierarchy counters would get batch-updated from the per-cpu delta simultaneously. This makes local and hierarchical counter reads blazingly fast, but it unfortunately makes the write-side too cache line intense. Since local counter reads were never a problem - we only centralized them to accelerate the hierarchy walk - and use of the local counters are becoming rarer due to replacement with hierarchical views (ongoing rework in the page reclaim and workingset code), we can make those local counters unbatched per-cpu counters again. The scheme will then be as such: when a memcg statistic changes, the writer will: - update the local counter (per-cpu) - update the batch counter (per-cpu). If the batch is full: - spill the batch into the group's atomic_t - spill the batch into all ancestors' atomic_ts - empty out the batch counter (per-cpu) when a local memcg counter is read, the reader will: - collect the local counter from all cpus when a hiearchy memcg counter is read, the reader will: - read the atomic_t We might be able to simplify this further and make the recursive counters unbatched per-cpu counters as well (batch upward propagation, but leave per-cpu collection to the readers), but that will require a more in-depth analysis and testing of all the callsites. Deal with the immediate regression for now.

When a cgroup is reclaimed on behalf of a configured limit, reclaim needs to round-robin through all NUMA nodes that hold pages of the memcg in question. However, when assembling the mask of candidate NUMA nodes, the code only consults the *local* cgroup LRU counters, not the recursive counters for the entire subtree. Cgroup limits are frequently configured against intermediate cgroups that do not have memory on their own LRUs. In this case, the node mask will always come up empty and reclaim falls back to scanning only the current node. If a cgroup subtree has some memory on one node but the processes are bound to another node afterwards, the limit reclaim will never age or reclaim that memory anymore. To fix this, use the recursive LRU counts for a cgroup subtree to determine which nodes hold memory of that cgroup. The code has been broken like this forever, so it doesn't seem to be a problem in practice. I just noticed it while reviewing the way the LRU counters are used in general.

Right now, when somebody needs to know the recursive memory statistics and events of a cgroup subtree, they need to walk the entire subtree and sum up the counters manually. There are two issues with this: 1. When a cgroup gets deleted, its stats are lost. The state counters should all be 0 at that point, of course, but the events are not. When this happens, the event counters, which are supposed to be monotonic, can go backwards in the parent cgroups. 2. During regular operation, we always have a certain number of lazily freed cgroups sitting around that have been deleted, have no tasks, but have a few cache pages remaining. These groups' statistics do not change until we eventually hit memory pressure, but somebody watching, say, memory.stat on an ancestor has to iterate those every time. This patch addresses both issues by introducing recursive counters at each level that are propagated from the write side when stats change. Upward propagation happens when the per-cpu caches spill over into the local atomic counter. This is the same thing we do during charge and uncharge, except that the latter uses atomic RMWs, which are more expensive; stat changes happen at around the same rate. In a sparse file test (page faults and reclaim at maximum CPU speed) with 5 cgroup nesting levels, perf shows __mod_memcg_page state at ~1%.

Patch series "mm: memcontrol: memory.stat cost & correctness". The cgroup memory.stat file holds recursive statistics for the entire subtree. The current implementation does this tree walk on-demand whenever the file is read. This is giving us problems in production. 1. The cost of aggregating the statistics on-demand is high. A lot of system service cgroups are mostly idle and their stats don't change between reads, yet we always have to check them. There are also always some lazily-dying cgroups sitting around that are pinned by a handful of remaining page cache; the same applies to them. In an application that periodically monitors memory.stat in our fleet, we have seen the aggregation consume up to 5% CPU time. 2. When cgroups die and disappear from the cgroup tree, so do their accumulated vm events. The result is that the event counters at higher-level cgroups can go backwards and confuse some of our automation, let alone people looking at the graphs over time. To address both issues, this patch series changes the stat implementation to spill counts upwards when the counters change. The upward spilling is batched using the existing per-cpu cache. In a sparse file stress test with 5 level cgroup nesting, the additional cost of the flushing was negligible (a little under 1% of CPU at 100% CPU utilization, compared to the 5% of reading memory.stat during regular operation). This patch (of 4): memcg_page_state(), lruvec_page_state(), memcg_sum_events() are currently returning the state of the local memcg or lruvec, not the recursive state. In practice there is a demand for both versions, although the callers that want the recursive counts currently sum them up by hand. Per default, cgroups are considered recursive entities and generally we expect more users of the recursive counters, with the local counts being special cases. To reflect that in the name, add a _local suffix to the current implementations. The following patch will re-incarnate these functions with recursive semantics, but with an O(1) implementation.

I spent literally an hour trying to work out why an earlier version of my memory.events aggregation code doesn't work properly, only to find out I was calling memcg->events instead of memcg->memory_events, which is fairly confusing. This naming seems in need of reworking, so make it harder to do the wrong thing by using vmevents instead of events, which makes it more clear that these are vm counters rather than memcg-specific counters. There are also a few other inconsistent names in both the percpu and aggregated structs, so these are all cleaned up to be more coherent and easy to understand. This commit contains code cleanup only: there are no logic changes.

Since commit a983b5eb ("mm: memcontrol: fix excessive complexity in memory.stat reporting") memcg dirty and writeback counters are managed as: 1) per-memcg per-cpu values in range of [-32..32] 2) per-memcg atomic counter When a per-cpu counter cannot fit in [-32..32] it's flushed to the atomic. Stat readers only check the atomic. Thus readers such as balance_dirty_pages() may see a nontrivial error margin: 32 pages per cpu. Assuming 100 cpus: 4k x86 page_size: 13 MiB error per memcg 64k ppc page_size: 200 MiB error per memcg Considering that dirty+writeback are used together for some decisions the errors double. This inaccuracy can lead to undeserved oom kills. One nasty case is when all per-cpu counters hold positive values offsetting an atomic negative value (i.e. per_cpu[*]=32, atomic=n_cpu*-32). balance_dirty_pages() only consults the atomic and does not consider throttling the next n_cpu*32 dirty pages. If the file_lru is in the 13..200 MiB range then there's absolutely no dirty throttling, which burdens vmscan with only dirty+writeback pages thus resorting to oom kill. It could be argued that tiny containers are not supported, but it's more subtle. It's the amount the space available for file lru that matters. If a container has memory.max-200MiB of non reclaimable memory, then it will also suffer such oom kills on a 100 cpu machine. The following test reliably ooms without this patch. This patch avoids oom kills. $ cat test mount -t cgroup2 none /dev/cgroup cd /dev/cgroup echo +io +memory > cgroup.subtree_control mkdir test cd test echo 10M > memory.max (echo $BASHPID > cgroup.procs && exec /memcg-writeback-stress /foo) (echo $BASHPID > cgroup.procs && exec dd if=/dev/zero of=/foo bs=2M count=100) $ cat memcg-writeback-stress.c /* * Dirty pages from all but one cpu. * Clean pages from the non dirtying cpu. * This is to stress per cpu counter imbalance. * On a 100 cpu machine: * - per memcg per cpu dirty count is 32 pages for each of 99 cpus * - per memcg atomic is -99*32 pages * - thus the complete dirty limit: sum of all counters 0 * - balance_dirty_pages() only sees atomic count -99*32 pages, which * it max()s to 0. * - So a workload can dirty -99*32 pages before balance_dirty_pages() * cares. */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <err.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <sched.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <sys/sysinfo.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <unistd.h> static char *buf; static int bufSize; static void set_affinity(int cpu) { cpu_set_t affinity; CPU_ZERO(&affinity); CPU_SET(cpu, &affinity); if (sched_setaffinity(0, sizeof(affinity), &affinity)) err(1, "sched_setaffinity"); } static void dirty_on(int output_fd, int cpu) { int i, wrote; set_affinity(cpu); for (i = 0; i < 32; i++) { for (wrote = 0; wrote < bufSize; ) { int ret = write(output_fd, buf+wrote, bufSize-wrote); if (ret == -1) err(1, "write"); wrote += ret; } } } int main(int argc, char **argv) { int cpu, flush_cpu = 1, output_fd; const char *output; if (argc != 2) errx(1, "usage: output_file"); output = argv[1]; bufSize = getpagesize(); buf = malloc(getpagesize()); if (buf == NULL) errx(1, "malloc failed"); output_fd = open(output, O_CREAT|O_RDWR); if (output_fd == -1) err(1, "open(%s)", output); for (cpu = 0; cpu < get_nprocs(); cpu++) { if (cpu != flush_cpu) dirty_on(output_fd, cpu); } set_affinity(flush_cpu); if (fsync(output_fd)) err(1, "fsync(%s)", output); if (close(output_fd)) err(1, "close(%s)", output); free(buf); } Make balance_dirty_pages() and wb_over_bg_thresh() work harder to collect exact per memcg counters. This avoids the aforementioned oom kills. This does not affect the overhead of memory.stat, which still reads the single atomic counter. Why not use percpu_counter? memcg already handles cpus going offline, so no need for that overhead from percpu_counter. And the percpu_counter spinlocks are more heavyweight than is required. It probably also makes sense to use exact dirty and writeback counters in memcg oom reports. But that is saved for later.

We have common pattern to access lru_lock from a page pointer: zone_lru_lock(page_zone(page)) Which is silly, because it unfolds to this: &NODE_DATA(page_to_nid(page))->node_zones[page_zonenum(page)]->zone_pgdat->lru_lock while we can simply do &NODE_DATA(page_to_nid(page))->lru_lock Remove zone_lru_lock() function, since it's only complicate things. Use 'page_pgdat(page)->lru_lock' pattern instead.
