      vmscan: per memory cgroup slab shrinkers · cb731d6c
      Vladimir Davydov 提交于
      This patch adds SHRINKER_MEMCG_AWARE flag.  If a shrinker has this flag
      set, it will be called per memory cgroup.  The memory cgroup to scan
      objects from is passed in shrink_control->memcg.  If the memory cgroup
      is NULL, a memcg aware shrinker is supposed to scan objects from the
      global list.  Unaware shrinkers are only called on global pressure with
      memcg=NULL.

      pagewalk.c can handle vma in itself, so we don't have to pass vma via
      walk->private.  And both of mem_cgroup_count_precharge() and
      mem_cgroup_move_charge() do for each vma loop themselves, but now it's
      done in pagewalk.c, so let's clean up them.

      oom, PM: make OOM detection in the freezer path raceless · c32b3cbe
      Michal Hocko 提交于
      Commit 5695be14 ("OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM
      suspend") has left a race window when OOM killer manages to
      note_oom_kill after freeze_processes checks the counter.  The race
      window is quite small and really unlikely and partial solution deemed
      sufficient at the time of submission.
      
      Tejun wasn't happy about this partial solution though and insisted on a
      full solution.  That requires the full OOM and freezer's task freezing
      exclusion, though.  This is done by this patch which introduces oom_sem
      RW lock and turns oom_killer_disable() into a full OOM barrier.
      
      oom_killer_disabled check is moved from the allocation path to the OOM
      level and we take oom_sem for reading for both the check and the whole
      OOM invocation.
      
      oom_killer_disable() takes oom_sem for writing so it waits for all
      currently running OOM killer invocations.  Then it disable all the further
      OOMs by setting oom_killer_disabled and checks for any oom victims.
      Victims are counted via mark_tsk_oom_victim resp.  unmark_oom_victim.  The
      last victim wakes up all waiters enqueued by oom_killer_disable().
      Therefore this function acts as the full OOM barrier.
      
      The page fault path is covered now as well although it was assumed to be
      safe before.  As per Tejun, "We used to have freezing points deep in file
      system code which may be reacheable from page fault." so it would be
      better and more robust to not rely on freezing points here.  Same applies
      to the memcg OOM killer.
      
      out_of_memory tells the caller whether the OOM was allowed to trigger and
      the callers are supposed to handle the situation.  The page allocation
      path simply fails the allocation same as before.  The page fault path will
      retry the fault (more on that later) and Sysrq OOM trigger will simply
      complain to the log.
      
      Normally there wouldn't be any unfrozen user tasks after
      try_to_freeze_tasks so the function will not block. But if there was an
      OOM killer racing with try_to_freeze_tasks and the OOM victim didn't
      finish yet then we have to wait for it. This should complete in a finite
      time, though, because
      
      	- the victim cannot loop in the page fault handler (it would die
      	  on the way out from the exception)
      	- it cannot loop in the page allocator because all the further
      	  allocation would fail and __GFP_NOFAIL allocations are not
      	  acceptable at this stage
      	- it shouldn't be blocked on any locks held by frozen tasks
      	  (try_to_freeze expects lockless context) and kernel threads and
      	  work queues are not frozen yet

      oom: add helpers for setting and clearing TIF_MEMDIE · 49550b60
      Michal Hocko 提交于
      This patchset addresses a race which was described in the changelog for
      5695be14 ("OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM suspend"):
      
      : PM freezer relies on having all tasks frozen by the time devices are
      : getting frozen so that no task will touch them while they are getting
      : frozen.  But OOM killer is allowed to kill an already frozen task in order
      : to handle OOM situtation.  In order to protect from late wake ups OOM
      : killer is disabled after all tasks are frozen.  This, however, still keeps
      : a window open when a killed task didn't manage to die by the time
      : freeze_processes finishes.
      
      The original patch hasn't closed the race window completely because that
      would require a more complex solution as it can be seen by this patchset.
      
      The primary motivation was to close the race condition between OOM killer
      and PM freezer _completely_.  As Tejun pointed out, even though the race
      condition is unlikely the harder it would be to debug weird bugs deep in
      the PM freezer when the debugging options are reduced considerably.  I can
      only speculate what might happen when a task is still runnable
      unexpectedly.
      
      On a plus side and as a side effect the oom enable/disable has a better
      (full barrier) semantic without polluting hot paths.
      
      I have tested the series in KVM with 100M RAM:
      - many small tasks (20M anon mmap) which are triggering OOM continually
      - s2ram which resumes automatically is triggered in a loop
      	echo processors > /sys/power/pm_test
      	while true
      	do
      		echo mem > /sys/power/state
      		sleep 1s
      	done
      - simple module which allocates and frees 20M in 8K chunks. If it sees
        freezing(current) then it tries another round of allocation before calling
        try_to_freeze
      - debugging messages of PM stages and OOM killer enable/disable/fail added
        and unmark_oom_victim is delayed by 1s after it clears TIF_MEMDIE and before
        it wakes up waiters.
      - rebased on top of the current mmotm which means some necessary updates
        in mm/oom_kill.c. mark_tsk_oom_victim is now called under task_lock but
        I think this should be OK because __thaw_task shouldn't interfere with any
        locking down wake_up_process. Oleg?
      
      As expected there are no OOM killed tasks after oom is disabled and
      allocations requested by the kernel thread are failing after all the tasks
      are frozen and OOM disabled.  I wasn't able to catch a race where
      oom_killer_disable would really have to wait but I kinda expected the race
      is really unlikely.

      The first 2 patches are simple cleanups for OOM.  They should go in

      Patches 3 and 4 are trivial printk -> pr_info conversion and they should
      go in ditto.
      
      The main patch is the last one and I would appreciate acks from Tejun and
      Rafael.  I think the OOM part should be OK (except for __thaw_task vs.
      task_lock where a look from Oleg would appreciated) but I am not so sure I
      haven't screwed anything in the freezer code.  I have found several
      surprises there.
      
      This patch (of 5):
      
      This patch is just a preparatory and it doesn't introduce any functional
      change.
      
      Note:
      I am utterly unhappy about lowmemory killer abusing TIF_MEMDIE just to
      wait for the oom victim and to prevent from new killing. This is
      just a side effect of the flag. The primary meaning is to give the oom
      victim access to the memory reserves and that shouldn't be necessary
      here.

      mm: memcontrol: default hierarchy interface for memory · 241994ed
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      Introduce the basic control files to account, partition, and limit
      memory using cgroups in default hierarchy mode.
      
      This interface versioning allows us to address fundamental design
      issues in the existing memory cgroup interface, further explained
      below.  The old interface will be maintained indefinitely, but a
      clearer model and improved workload performance should encourage
      existing users to switch over to the new one eventually.
      
      The control files are thus:
      
        - memory.current shows the current consumption of the cgroup and its
          descendants, in bytes.
      
        - memory.low configures the lower end of the cgroup's expected
          memory consumption range.  The kernel considers memory below that
          boundary to be a reserve - the minimum that the workload needs in
          order to make forward progress - and generally avoids reclaiming
          it, unless there is an imminent risk of entering an OOM situation.
      
        - memory.high configures the upper end of the cgroup's expected
          memory consumption range.  A cgroup whose consumption grows beyond
          this threshold is forced into direct reclaim, to work off the
          excess and to throttle new allocations heavily, but is generally
          allowed to continue and the OOM killer is not invoked.
      
        - memory.max configures the hard maximum amount of memory that the
          cgroup is allowed to consume before the OOM killer is invoked.
      
        - memory.events shows event counters that indicate how often the
          cgroup was reclaimed while below memory.low, how often it was
          forced to reclaim excess beyond memory.high, how often it hit
          memory.max, and how often it entered OOM due to memory.max.  This
          allows users to identify configuration problems when observing a
          degradation in workload performance.  An overcommitted system will
          have an increased rate of low boundary breaches, whereas increased
          rates of high limit breaches, maximum hits, or even OOM situations
          will indicate internally overcommitted cgroups.
      
      For existing users of memory cgroups, the following deviations from
      the current interface are worth pointing out and explaining:
      
        - The original lower boundary, the soft limit, is defined as a limit
          that is per default unset.  As a result, the set of cgroups that
          global reclaim prefers is opt-in, rather than opt-out.  The costs
          for optimizing these mostly negative lookups are so high that the
          implementation, despite its enormous size, does not even provide
          the basic desirable behavior.  First off, the soft limit has no
          hierarchical meaning.  All configured groups are organized in a
          global rbtree and treated like equal peers, regardless where they
          are located in the hierarchy.  This makes subtree delegation
          impossible.  Second, the soft limit reclaim pass is so aggressive
          that it not just introduces high allocation latencies into the
          system, but also impacts system performance due to overreclaim, to
          the point where the feature becomes self-defeating.
      
          The memory.low boundary on the other hand is a top-down allocated
          reserve.  A cgroup enjoys reclaim protection when it and all its
          ancestors are below their low boundaries, which makes delegation
          of subtrees possible.  Secondly, new cgroups have no reserve per
          default and in the common case most cgroups are eligible for the
          preferred reclaim pass.  This allows the new low boundary to be
          efficiently implemented with just a minor addition to the generic
          reclaim code, without the need for out-of-band data structures and
          reclaim passes.  Because the generic reclaim code considers all
          cgroups except for the ones running low in the preferred first
          reclaim pass, overreclaim of individual groups is eliminated as
          well, resulting in much better overall workload performance.
      
        - The original high boundary, the hard limit, is defined as a strict
          limit that can not budge, even if the OOM killer has to be called.
          But this generally goes against the goal of making the most out of
          the available memory.  The memory consumption of workloads varies
          during runtime, and that requires users to overcommit.  But doing
          that with a strict upper limit requires either a fairly accurate
          prediction of the working set size or adding slack to the limit.
          Since working set size estimation is hard and error prone, and
          getting it wrong results in OOM kills, most users tend to err on
          the side of a looser limit and end up wasting precious resources.
      
          The memory.high boundary on the other hand can be set much more
          conservatively.  When hit, it throttles allocations by forcing
          them into direct reclaim to work off the excess, but it never
          invokes the OOM killer.  As a result, a high boundary that is
          chosen too aggressively will not terminate the processes, but
          instead it will lead to gradual performance degradation.  The user
          can monitor this and make corrections until the minimal memory
          footprint that still gives acceptable performance is found.
      
          In extreme cases, with many concurrent allocations and a complete
          breakdown of reclaim progress within the group, the high boundary
          can be exceeded.  But even then it's mostly better to satisfy the
          allocation from the slack available in other groups or the rest of
          the system than killing the group.  Otherwise, memory.max is there
          to limit this type of spillover and ultimately contain buggy or
          even malicious applications.
      
        - The original control file names are unwieldy and inconsistent in
          many different ways.  For example, the upper boundary hit count is
          exported in the memory.failcnt file, but an OOM event count has to
          be manually counted by listening to memory.oom_control events, and
          lower boundary / soft limit events have to be counted by first
          setting a threshold for that value and then counting those events.
          Also, usage and limit files encode their units in the filename.
          That makes the filenames very long, even though this is not
          information that a user needs to be reminded of every time they
          type out those names.
      
          To address these naming issues, as well as to signal clearly that
          the new interface carries a new configuration model, the naming
          conventions in it necessarily differ from the old interface.
      
        - The original limit files indicate the state of an unset limit with
          a very high number, and a configured limit can be unset by echoing
          -1 into those files.  But that very high number is implementation
          and architecture dependent and not very descriptive.  And while -1
          can be understood as an underflow into the highest possible value,
          -2 or -10M etc. do not work, so it's not inconsistent.
      
          memory.low, memory.high, and memory.max will use the string
          "infinity" to indicate and set the highest possible value.

      mm: page_counter: pull "-1" handling out of page_counter_memparse() · 650c5e56
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      The unified hierarchy interface for memory cgroups will no longer use "-1"
      to mean maximum possible resource value.  In preparation for this, make
      the string an argument and let the caller supply it.

      memcg: add BUILD_BUG_ON() for string tables · 0ca44b14
      Greg Thelen 提交于
      Use BUILD_BUG_ON() to compile assert that memcg string tables are in sync
      with corresponding enums.  There aren't currently any issues with these
      tables.  This is just defensive.

      vmscan: force scan offline memory cgroups · 90cbc250
      Vladimir Davydov 提交于
      Since commit b2052564 ("mm: memcontrol: continue cache reclaim from
      offlined groups") pages charged to a memory cgroup are not reparented when
      the cgroup is removed.  Instead, they are supposed to be reclaimed in a
      regular way, along with pages accounted to online memory cgroups.
      
      However, an lruvec of an offline memory cgroup will sooner or later get so
      small that it will be scanned only at low scan priorities (see
      get_scan_count()).  Therefore, if there are enough reclaimable pages in
      big lruvecs, pages accounted to offline memory cgroups will never be
      scanned at all, wasting memory.
      
      Fix this by unconditionally forcing scanning dead lruvecs from kswapd.

      mm: memcontrol: track move_lock state internally · 6de22619
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      The complexity of memcg page stat synchronization is currently leaking
      into the callsites, forcing them to keep track of the move_lock state and
      the IRQ flags.  Simplify the API by tracking it in the memcg.
