      loop: charge i/o to mem and blk cg · c74d40e8
      由 Dan Schatzberg 提交于 
      The current code only associates with the existing blkcg when aio is used
to access the backing file.  This patch covers all types of i/o to the
backing file and also associates the memcg so if the backing file is on
tmpfs, memory is charged appropriately.

This patch also exports cgroup_get_e_css and int_active_memcg so it can be
used by the loop module.

      mm: charge active memcg when no mm is set · 04f94e3f
      由 Dan Schatzberg 提交于 
      set_active_memcg() worked for kernel allocations but was silently ignored
for user pages.

This patch establishes a precedence order for who gets charged:

1. If there is a memcg associated with the page already, that memcg is
   charged. This happens during swapin.

2. If an explicit mm is passed, mm->memcg is charged. This happens
   during page faults, which can be triggered in remote VMs (eg gup).

3. Otherwise consult the current process context. If there is an
   active_memcg, use that. Otherwise, current->mm->memcg.

Previously, if a NULL mm was passed to mem_cgroup_charge (case 3) it would
always charge the root cgroup.  Now it looks up the active_memcg first
(falling back to charging the root cgroup if not set).

      由 Muchun Song 提交于 
      The obj_cgroup_release() and memcg_reparent_objcgs() are serialized by the
css_set_lock.  We do not need to care about objcg->memcg being released in
the process of obj_cgroup_release().  So there is no need to pin memcg
before releasing objcg.  Remove those pinning logic to simplfy the code.

There are only two places that modifies the objcg->memcg.  One is the
initialization to objcg->memcg in the memcg_online_kmem(), another is
objcgs reparenting in the memcg_reparent_objcgs().  It is also impossible
for the two to run in parallel.  So xchg() is unnecessary and it is enough
to use WRITE_ONCE().

the root memcg in page replacement.  Although we do not display the value
(mem_cgroup_usage) so there shouldn't be any actual problem, but there is
a WARN_ON_ONCE in the page_counter_cancel().  Who knows if it will

      由 Muchun Song 提交于 
      The below scenario can cause the page counters of the root_mem_cgroup to
be out of balance.

CPU0:                                   CPU1:

objcg = get_obj_cgroup_from_current()
obj_cgroup_charge_pages(objcg)
                                        memcg_reparent_objcgs()
                                            // reparent to root_mem_cgroup
                                            WRITE_ONCE(iter->memcg, parent)
    // memcg == root_mem_cgroup
    memcg = get_mem_cgroup_from_objcg(objcg)
    // do not charge to the root_mem_cgroup
    try_charge(memcg)

obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages(objcg)
    memcg = get_mem_cgroup_from_objcg(objcg)
    // uncharge from the root_mem_cgroup
    refill_stock(memcg)
        drain_stock(memcg)
            page_counter_uncharge(&memcg->memory)

get_obj_cgroup_from_current() never returns a root_mem_cgroup's objcg, so
we never explicitly charge the root_mem_cgroup.  And it's not going to
change.  It's all about a race when we got an obj_cgroup pointing at some
non-root memcg, but before we were able to charge it, the cgroup was gone,
objcg was reparented to the root and so we're skipping the charging.  Then
we store the objcg pointer and later use to uncharge the root_mem_cgroup.

This can cause the page counter to be less than the actual value.
Although we do not display the value (mem_cgroup_usage) so there shouldn't
be any actual problem, but there is a WARN_ON_ONCE in the
page_counter_cancel().  Who knows if it will trigger?  So it is better to
fix it.

      mm: memcg/slab: create a new set of kmalloc-cg-<n> caches · 494c1dfe
      由 Waiman Long 提交于 
      There are currently two problems in the way the objcg pointer array
(memcg_data) in the page structure is being allocated and freed.

On its allocation, it is possible that the allocated objcg pointer
array comes from the same slab that requires memory accounting. If this
happens, the slab will never become empty again as there is at least
one object left (the obj_cgroup array) in the slab.

When it is freed, the objcg pointer array object may be the last one
in its slab and hence causes kfree() to be called again. With the
right workload, the slab cache may be set up in a way that allows the
recursive kfree() calling loop to nest deep enough to cause a kernel
stack overflow and panic the system.

One way to solve this problem is to split the kmalloc-<n> caches
(KMALLOC_NORMAL) into two separate sets - a new set of kmalloc-<n>
(KMALLOC_NORMAL) caches for unaccounted objects only and a new set of
kmalloc-cg-<n> (KMALLOC_CGROUP) caches for accounted objects only. All
the other caches can still allow a mix of accounted and unaccounted
objects.

With this change, all the objcg pointer array objects will come from
KMALLOC_NORMAL caches which won't have their objcg pointer arrays. So
both the recursive kfree() problem and non-freeable slab problem are
gone.

Since both the KMALLOC_NORMAL and KMALLOC_CGROUP caches no longer have
mixed accounted and unaccounted objects, this will slightly reduce the
number of objcg pointer arrays that need to be allocated and save a bit
of memory. On the other hand, creating a new set of kmalloc caches does
have the effect of reducing cache utilization. So it is properly a wash.

The new KMALLOC_CGROUP is added between KMALLOC_NORMAL and
KMALLOC_RECLAIM so that the first for loop in create_kmalloc_caches()
will include the newly added caches without change.

      mm: memcg/slab: properly set up gfp flags for objcg pointer array · 41eb5df1
      由 Waiman Long 提交于 
      Patch series "mm: memcg/slab: Fix objcg pointer array handling problem", v4.

Since the merging of the new slab memory controller in v5.9, the page
structure stores a pointer to objcg pointer array for slab pages.  When
the slab has no used objects, it can be freed in free_slab() which will
call kfree() to free the objcg pointer array in
memcg_alloc_page_obj_cgroups().  If it happens that the objcg pointer
array is the last used object in its slab, that slab may then be freed
which may caused kfree() to be called again.

With the right workload, the slab cache may be set up in a way that allows
the recursive kfree() calling loop to nest deep enough to cause a kernel
stack overflow and panic the system.  In fact, we have a reproducer that
can cause kernel stack overflow on a s390 system involving kmalloc-rcl-256
and kmalloc-rcl-128 slabs with the following kfree() loop recursively
called 74 times:

  [ 285.520739] [<000000000ec432fc>] kfree+0x4bc/0x560 [ 285.520740]
[<000000000ec43466>] __free_slab+0xc6/0x228 [ 285.520741]
[<000000000ec41fc2>] __slab_free+0x3c2/0x3e0 [ 285.520742]
[<000000000ec432fc>] kfree+0x4bc/0x560 : While investigating this issue, I
also found an issue on the allocation side.  If the objcg pointer array
happen to come from the same slab or a circular dependency linkage is
formed with multiple slabs, those affected slabs can never be freed again.

This patch series addresses these two issues by introducing a new set of
kmalloc-cg-<n> caches split from kmalloc-<n> caches.  The new set will
only contain non-reclaimable and non-dma objects that are accounted in
memory cgroups whereas the old set are now for unaccounted objects only.
By making this split, all the objcg pointer arrays will come from the
kmalloc-<n> caches, but those caches will never hold any objcg pointer
array.  As a result, deeply nested kfree() call and the unfreeable slab
problems are now gone.

This patch (of 4):

Since the merging of the new slab memory controller in v5.9, the page
structure may store a pointer to obj_cgroup pointer array for slab pages.
Currently, only the __GFP_ACCOUNT bit is masked off.  However, the array
is not readily reclaimable and doesn't need to come from the DMA buffer.
So those GFP bits should be masked off as well.

Do the flag bit clearing at memcg_alloc_page_obj_cgroups() to make sure
that it is consistently applied no matter where it is called.

      mm/memcg: optimize user context object stock access · 55927114
      由 Waiman Long 提交于 
      Most kmem_cache_alloc() calls are from user context.  With instrumentation
enabled, the measured amount of kmem_cache_alloc() calls from non-task
context was about 0.01% of the total.

The irq disable/enable sequence used in this case to access content from
object stock is slow.  To optimize for user context access, there are now
two sets of object stocks (in the new obj_stock structure) for task
context and interrupt context access respectively.

The task context object stock can be accessed after disabling preemption
which is cheap in non-preempt kernel.  The interrupt context object stock
can only be accessed after disabling interrupt.  User context code can
access interrupt object stock, but not vice versa.

The downside of this change is that there are more data stored in local
object stocks and not reflected in the charge counter and the vmstat
arrays.  However, this is a small price to pay for better performance.

      mm/memcg: improve refill_obj_stock() performance · 5387c904
      由 Waiman Long 提交于 
      There are two issues with the current refill_obj_stock() code.  First of
all, when nr_bytes reaches over PAGE_SIZE, it calls drain_obj_stock() to
atomically flush out remaining bytes to obj_cgroup, clear cached_objcg and
do a obj_cgroup_put().  It is likely that the same obj_cgroup will be used
again which leads to another call to drain_obj_stock() and
obj_cgroup_get() as well as atomically retrieve the available byte from
obj_cgroup.  That is costly.  Instead, we should just uncharge the excess
pages, reduce the stock bytes and be done with it.  The drain_obj_stock()
function should only be called when obj_cgroup changes.

Secondly, when charging an object of size not less than a page in
obj_cgroup_charge(), it is possible that the remaining bytes to be
refilled to the stock will overflow a page and cause refill_obj_stock() to
uncharge 1 page.  To avoid the additional uncharge in this case, a new
allow_uncharge flag is added to refill_obj_stock() which will be set to
false when called from obj_cgroup_charge() so that an uncharge_pages()
call won't be issued right after a charge_pages() call unless the objcg
changes.

A multithreaded kmalloc+kfree microbenchmark on a 2-socket 48-core
96-thread x86-64 system with 96 testing threads were run.  Before this
patch, the total number of kilo kmalloc+kfree operations done for a 4k
large object by all the testing threads per second were 4,304 kops/s
(cgroup v1) and 8,478 kops/s (cgroup v2).  After applying this patch, the
number were 4,731 (cgroup v1) and 418,142 (cgroup v2) respectively.  This
represents a performance improvement of 1.10X (cgroup v1) and 49.3X
(cgroup v2).

      mm/memcg: cache vmstat data in percpu memcg_stock_pcp · 68ac5b3c
      由 Waiman Long 提交于 
      Before the new slab memory controller with per object byte charging,
charging and vmstat data update happen only when new slab pages are
allocated or freed.  Now they are done with every kmem_cache_alloc() and
kmem_cache_free().  This causes additional overhead for workloads that
generate a lot of alloc and free calls.

The memcg_stock_pcp is used to cache byte charge for a specific obj_cgroup
to reduce that overhead.  To further reducing it, this patch makes the
vmstat data cached in the memcg_stock_pcp structure as well until it
accumulates a page size worth of update or when other cached data change.
Caching the vmstat data in the per-cpu stock eliminates two writes to
non-hot cachelines for memcg specific as well as memcg-lruvecs specific
vmstat data by a write to a hot local stock cacheline.

On a 2-socket Cascade Lake server with instrumentation enabled and this
patch applied, it was found that about 20% (634400 out of 3243830) of the
time when mod_objcg_state() is called leads to an actual call to
__mod_objcg_state() after initial boot.  When doing parallel kernel build,
the figure was about 17% (24329265 out of 142512465).  So caching the
vmstat data reduces the number of calls to __mod_objcg_state() by more
than 80%.

      mm/memcg: move mod_objcg_state() to memcontrol.c · fdbcb2a6
      由 Waiman Long 提交于 
      Patch series "mm/memcg: Reduce kmemcache memory accounting overhead", v6.

With the recent introduction of the new slab memory controller, we
eliminate the need for having separate kmemcaches for each memory cgroup
and reduce overall kernel memory usage.  However, we also add additional
memory accounting overhead to each call of kmem_cache_alloc() and
kmem_cache_free().

For workloads that require a lot of kmemcache allocations and
de-allocations, they may experience performance regression as illustrated
in [1] and [2].

A simple kernel module that performs repeated loop of 100,000,000
kmem_cache_alloc() and kmem_cache_free() of either a small 32-byte object
or a big 4k object at module init time with a batch size of 4 (4 kmalloc's
followed by 4 kfree's) is used for benchmarking.  The benchmarking tool
was run on a kernel based on linux-next-20210419.  The test was run on a
CascadeLake server with turbo-boosting disable to reduce run-to-run
variation.

The small object test exercises mainly the object stock charging and
vmstat update code paths.  The large object test also exercises the
refill_obj_stock() and __memcg_kmem_charge()/__memcg_kmem_uncharge() code
paths.

With memory accounting disabled, the run time was 3.130s with both small
object big object tests.

With memory accounting enabled, both cgroup v1 and v2 showed similar
results in the small object test.  The performance results of the large
object test, however, differed between cgroup v1 and v2.

The execution times with the application of various patches in the
patchset were:

  Applied patches   Run time   Accounting overhead   %age 1   %age 2
  ---------------   --------   -------------------   ------   ------

  Small 32-byte object:
       None          11.634s         8.504s          100.0%   271.7%

        1-3           9.708s         6.578s           77.4%   210.2%

  Large 4k object (v2):

  Large 4k object (v1):
       None          36.807s        33.677s          100.0%  1075.9%

  N.B. %age 1 = overhead/unpatched overhead
       %age 2 = overhead/accounting disabled time

Patch 2 (vmstat data stock caching) helps in both the small object test
and the large v2 object test. It doesn't help much in v1 big object test.

Patch 3 (refill_obj_stock improvement) does help the small object test
but offer significant performance improvement for the large object test
(both v1 and v2).

Patch 4 (eliminating irq disable/enable) helps in all test cases.

To test for the extreme case, a multi-threaded kmalloc/kfree
microbenchmark was run on the 2-socket 48-core 96-thread system with
96 testing threads in the same memcg doing kmalloc+kfree of a 4k object
with accounting enabled for 10s. The total number of kmalloc+kfree done
in kilo operations per second (kops/s) were as follows:

  Applied patches   v1 kops/s   v1 change   v2 kops/s   v2 change
  ---------------   ---------   ---------   ---------   ---------
       None           3,520        1.00X      6,242        1.00X
        1-2           4,304        1.22X      8,478        1.36X
        1-3           4,731        1.34X    418,142       66.99X
        1-4           4,587        1.30X    438,838       70.30X

With memory accounting disabled, the kmalloc/kfree rate was 1,481,291
kop/s. This test shows how significant the memory accouting overhead
can be in some extreme situations.

For this multithreaded test, the improvement from patch 2 mainly
comes from the conditional atomic xchg of objcg->nr_charged_bytes in
mod_objcg_state(). By using an unconditional xchg, the operation rates
were similar to the unpatched kernel.

Patch 3 elminates the single highly contended cacheline of
objcg->nr_charged_bytes for cgroup v2 leading to a huge performance
improvement. Cgroup v1, however, still has another highly contended
cacheline in the shared page counter &memcg->kmem. So the improvement
is only modest.

Patch 4 helps in cgroup v2, but performs worse in cgroup v1 as
eliminating the irq_disable/irq_enable overhead seems to aggravate the
cacheline contention.

This patch (of 4):

mod_objcg_state() is moved from mm/slab.h to mm/memcontrol.c so that
further optimization can be done to it in later patches without exposing
unnecessary details to other mm components.
