I was looking at a trace of the slab shrinkers (attachment in this comment):

	https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72742#c67

and noticed that "total_scan" can go negative in some cases.  We
used to dump out the "total_scan" variable directly, but some of
the shrinker modifications along the way changed that.

This patch just dumps it out directly, again.  It doesn't make
any sense to derive it from new_nr and nr any more since there
are now other shrinkers that can be running in parallel and
mucking with those values.

Here's an example of the negative numbers in the output:

"dev" cannot be NULL because it is already checked before calling
dma_pool_create().

If dev ever was NULL, the code would oops in dev_to_node() after enabling
CONFIG_NUMA.

It is possible that some driver is using dev==NULL and has never been run
on a NUMA machine.  Such a driver is probably outdated, possibly buggy and
will need some attention if it starts triggering NULL derefs.

Currently, in put_compound_page(), we have

======

        if (put_page_testzero(page)) {
                 /*

                 ¦* split_huge_page cannot run anymore from under us.
                 ¦*/
                 if (PageHead(page))
                         __put_compound_page(page);
                 else
                         __put_single_page(page);
         }
         return;
}

/* __split_huge_page_refcount can run under us */
page_head = compound_head(page);        <------------ (2)
======

if at (1) ,  we fail the check, this means page is *likely* a tail page.

Then at (2), as compoud_head(page) is inlined, it is :

======
static inline struct page *compound_head(struct page *page)
{
          if (unlikely(PageTail(page))) {           <----------- (3)
              struct page *head = page->first_page;

                smp_rmb();
                if (likely(PageTail(page)))
                        return head;
        }
        return page;
}
======

here, the (3) unlikely in the case is a negative hint, because it is
*likely* a tail page.  So the check (3) in this case is not good, so I
introduce a helper for this case.

So this patch introduces compound_head_by_tail() which deals with a
possible tail page(though it could be spilt by a racy thread), and make
compound_head() a wrapper on it.

This patch has no functional change, and it reduces the object
size slightly:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex  filename
  11003    1328      16   12347    303b  mm/swap.o.orig
  10971    1328      16   12315    301b  mm/swap.o.patched

I've ran "perf top -e branch-miss" to observe branch-miss in this case.
As Michael points out, it's a slow path, so only very few times this case
happens.  But I grep'ed the code base, and found there still are some
other call sites could be benifited from this helper.  And given that it
only bloating up the source by only 5 lines, but with a reduced object
size.  I still believe this helper deserves to exsit.

Currently, put_compound_page() carefully handles tricky cases to avoid
racing with compound page releasing or splitting, which makes it quite
lenthy (about 200+ lines) and needs deep tab indention, which makes it
quite hard to follow and maintain.

Now based on two helpers introduced in the previous patch ("mm/swap.c:
introduce put_[un]refcounted_compound_page helpers for spliting
put_compound_page"), this patch replaces those two lengthy code paths with
these two helpers, respectively.  Also, it has some comment rephrasing.

After this patch, the put_compound_page() is very compact, thus easy to
read and maintain.

After splitting, the object file is of same size as the original one.
Actually, I've diff'ed put_compound_page()'s orginal disassemble code and
the patched disassemble code, the are 100% the same!

This fact shows that this splitting has no functional change, but it
brings readability.

This patch and the previous one blow the code by 32 lines, mostly due to
comments.

racing with compound page releasing or splitting, which makes it quite
lenthy (about 200+ lines) and needs deep tab indention, which makes it
quite hard to follow and maintain.

This patch and the next patch refactor this function.

Based on the code skeleton of put_compound_page:

put_compound_pge:
        if !PageTail(page)
        	put head page fastpath;
		return;

        /* else PageTail */
        page_head = compound_head(page)
        if !__compound_tail_refcounted(page_head)
		put head page optimal path; <---(1)
		return;
        else
		put head page slowpath; <--- (2)
                return;

This patch introduces two helpers, put_[un]refcounted_compound_page,
handling the code path (1) and code path (2), respectively.  They both are
tagged __always_inline, thus elmiating function call overhead, making them
operating the same way as before.

They are almost copied verbatim(except one place, a "goto out_put_single"
is expanded), with some comments rephrasing.

When a loopback NFS mount is active and the backing device for the NFS
mount becomes congested, that can impose throttling delays on the nfsd
threads.

These delays significantly reduce throughput and so the NFS mount remains
congested.

This results in a livelock and the reduced throughput persists.

This livelock has been found in testing with the 'wait_iff_congested'
call, and could possibly be caused by the 'congestion_wait' call.

This livelock is similar to the deadlock which justified the introduction
of PF_LESS_THROTTLE, and the same flag can be used to remove this
livelock.

To minimise the impact of the change, we still throttle nfsd when the
filesystem it is writing to is congested, but not when some separate
filesystem (e.g.  the NFS filesystem) is congested.

Migration of misplaced transhuge pages uses page_add_new_anon_rmap() when
putting the page back as it avoided an atomic operations and added the new
page to the correct LRU.  A side-effect is that the page gets marked
activated as part of the migration meaning that transhuge and base pages
are treated differently from an aging perspective than base page
migration.

This patch uses page_add_anon_rmap() and putback_lru_page() on completion
of a transhuge migration similar to base page migration.  It would require
fewer atomic operations to use lru_cache_add without taking an additional
reference to the page.  The downside would be that it's still different to
base page migration and unevictable pages may be added to the wrong LRU
for cleaning up later.  Testing of the usual workloads did not show any
adverse impact to the change.

At present, we have the following mutexes protecting data related to per
memcg kmem caches:

 - slab_mutex.  This one is held during the whole kmem cache creation
   and destruction paths.  We also take it when updating per root cache
   memcg_caches arrays (see memcg_update_all_caches).  As a result, taking
   it guarantees there will be no changes to any kmem cache (including per
   memcg).  Why do we need something else then?  The point is it is
   private to slab implementation and has some internal dependencies with
   other mutexes (get_online_cpus).  So we just don't want to rely upon it
   and prefer to introduce additional mutexes instead.

 - activate_kmem_mutex.  Initially it was added to synchronize
   initializing kmem limit (memcg_activate_kmem).  However, since we can
   grow per root cache memcg_caches arrays only on kmem limit
   initialization (see memcg_update_all_caches), we also employ it to
   protect against memcg_caches arrays relocation (e.g.  see
   __kmem_cache_destroy_memcg_children).

 - We have a convention not to take slab_mutex in memcontrol.c, but we
   want to walk over per memcg memcg_slab_caches lists there (e.g.  for
   destroying all memcg caches on offline).  So we have per memcg
   slab_caches_mutex's protecting those lists.

The mutexes are taken in the following order:

   activate_kmem_mutex -> slab_mutex -> memcg::slab_caches_mutex

Such a syncrhonization scheme has a number of flaws, for instance:

 - We can't call kmem_cache_{destroy,shrink} while walking over a
   memcg::memcg_slab_caches list due to locking order.  As a result, in
   mem_cgroup_destroy_all_caches we schedule the
   memcg_cache_params::destroy work shrinking and destroying the cache.

 - We don't have a mutex to synchronize per memcg caches destruction
   between memcg offline (mem_cgroup_destroy_all_caches) and root cache
   destruction (__kmem_cache_destroy_memcg_children).  Currently we just
   don't bother about it.

This patch simplifies it by substituting per memcg slab_caches_mutex's
with the global memcg_slab_mutex.  It will be held whenever a new per
memcg cache is created or destroyed, so it protects per root cache
memcg_caches arrays and per memcg memcg_slab_caches lists.  The locking
order is following:

   activate_kmem_mutex -> memcg_slab_mutex -> slab_mutex

This allows us to call kmem_cache_{create,shrink,destroy} under the
memcg_slab_mutex.  As a result, we don't need memcg_cache_params::destroy
work any more - we can simply destroy caches while iterating over a per
memcg slab caches list.

Also using the global mutex simplifies synchronization between concurrent
per memcg caches creation/destruction, e.g.  mem_cgroup_destroy_all_caches
vs __kmem_cache_destroy_memcg_children.

The downside of this is that we substitute per-memcg slab_caches_mutex's
with a hummer-like global mutex, but since we already take either the
slab_mutex or the cgroup_mutex along with a memcg::slab_caches_mutex, it
shouldn't hurt concurrency a lot.

Currently we have two pairs of kmemcg-related functions that are called on
slab alloc/free.  The first is memcg_{bind,release}_pages that count the
total number of pages allocated on a kmem cache.  The second is
memcg_{un}charge_slab that {un}charge slab pages to kmemcg resource
counter.  Let's just merge them to keep the code clean.

This patchset is a part of preparations for kmemcg re-parenting.  It
targets at simplifying kmemcg work-flows and synchronization.

First, it removes async per memcg cache destruction (see patches 1, 2).
Now caches are only destroyed on memcg offline.  That means the caches
that are not empty on memcg offline will be leaked.  However, they are
already leaked, because memcg_cache_params::nr_pages normally never drops
to 0 so the destruction work is never scheduled except kmem_cache_shrink
is called explicitly.  In the future I'm planning reaping such dead caches
on vmpressure or periodically.

Second, it substitutes per memcg slab_caches_mutex's with the global
memcg_slab_mutex, which should be taken during the whole per memcg cache
creation/destruction path before the slab_mutex (see patch 3).  This
greatly simplifies synchronization among various per memcg cache
creation/destruction paths.

I'm still not quite sure about the end picture, in particular I don't know
whether we should reap dead memcgs' kmem caches periodically or try to
merge them with their parents (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/20/38 for
more details), but whichever way we choose, this set looks like a
reasonable change to me, because it greatly simplifies kmemcg work-flows
and eases further development.

This patch (of 3):

After a memcg is offlined, we mark its kmem caches that cannot be deleted
right now due to pending objects as dead by setting the
memcg_cache_params::dead flag, so that memcg_release_pages will schedule
cache destruction (memcg_cache_params::destroy) as soon as the last slab
of the cache is freed (memcg_cache_params::nr_pages drops to zero).

I guess the idea was to destroy the caches as soon as possible, i.e.
immediately after freeing the last object.  However, it just doesn't work
that way, because kmem caches always preserve some pages for the sake of
performance, so that nr_pages never gets to zero unless the cache is
shrunk explicitly using kmem_cache_shrink.  Of course, we could account
the total number of objects on the cache or check if all the slabs
allocated for the cache are empty on kmem_cache_free and schedule
destruction if so, but that would be too costly.

Thus we have a piece of code that works only when we explicitly call
kmem_cache_shrink, but complicates the whole picture a lot.  Moreover,
it's racy in fact.  For instance, kmem_cache_shrink may free the last slab
and thus schedule cache destruction before it finishes checking that the
cache is empty, which can lead to use-after-free.

So I propose to remove this async cache destruction from
memcg_release_pages, and check if the cache is empty explicitly after
calling kmem_cache_shrink instead.  This will simplify things a lot w/o
introducing any functional changes.

And regarding dead memcg caches (i.e.  those that are left hanging around
after memcg offline for they have objects), I suppose we should reap them
either periodically or on vmpressure as Glauber suggested initially.  I'm
going to implement this later.

Eric has reported that he can see task(s) stuck in memcg OOM handler
regularly.  The only way out is to

	echo 0 > $GROUP/memory.oom_control

His usecase is:

- Setup a hierarchy with memory and the freezer (disable kernel oom and
  have a process watch for oom).

- In that memory cgroup add a process with one thread per cpu.

- In one thread slowly allocate once per second I think it is 16M of ram
  and mlock and dirty it (just to force the pages into ram and stay
  there).

- When oom is achieved loop:
  * attempt to freeze all of the tasks.
  * if frozen send every task SIGKILL, unfreeze, remove the directory in
    cgroupfs.

Eric has then pinpointed the issue to be memcg specific.

All tasks are sitting on the memcg_oom_waitq when memcg oom is disabled.
Those that have received fatal signal will bypass the charge and should
continue on their way out.  The tricky part is that the exit path might
trigger a page fault (e.g.  exit_robust_list), thus the memcg charge,
while its memcg is still under OOM because nobody has released any charges
yet.

Unlike with the in-kernel OOM handler the exiting task doesn't get
TIF_MEMDIE set so it doesn't shortcut further charges of the killed task
and falls to the memcg OOM again without any way out of it as there are no
fatal signals pending anymore.

This patch fixes the issue by checking PF_EXITING early in
mem_cgroup_try_charge and bypass the charge same as if it had fatal
signal pending or TIF_MEMDIE set.

Normally exiting tasks (aka not killed) will bypass the charge now but
this should be OK as the task is leaving and will release memory and
increasing the memory pressure just to release it in a moment seems
dubious wasting of cycles.  Besides that charges after exit_signals should
be rare.

I am bringing this patch again (rebased on the current mmotm tree). I
hope we can move forward finally. If there is still an opposition then
I would really appreciate a concurrent approach so that we can discuss
alternatives.

http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.stable/77650 is a reference
to the followup discussion when the patch has been dropped from the mmotm
last time.

throttle_direct_reclaim() is meant to trigger during swap-over-network
during which the min watermark is treated as a pfmemalloc reserve.  It
throttes on the first node in the zonelist but this is flawed.

The user-visible impact is that a process running on CPU whose local
memory node has no ZONE_NORMAL will stall for prolonged periods of time,
possibly indefintely.  This is due to throttle_direct_reclaim thinking the
pfmemalloc reserves are depleted when in fact they don't exist on that
node.

On a NUMA machine running a 32-bit kernel (I know) allocation requests
from CPUs on node 1 would detect no pfmemalloc reserves and the process
gets throttled.  This patch adjusts throttling of direct reclaim to
throttle based on the first node in the zonelist that has a usable
ZONE_NORMAL or lower zone.

This patch unexports __lru_cache_add(), and makes it static.  It also

isolate_freepages() is currently somewhat hard to follow thanks to many
looks like it is related to the 'low_pfn' variable, but in fact it is not.

This patch renames the 'high_pfn' variable to a hopefully less confusing name,
and slightly changes its handling without a functional change. A comment made
obsolete by recent changes is also updated.
