      memcg: remove incorrect underflow check · 6920a1bd
      Greg Thelen 提交于
      When a memcg is deleted mem_cgroup_reparent_charges() moves charged
      memory to the parent memcg.  As of v3.11-9444-g3ea67d06 "memcg: add per
      cgroup writeback pages accounting" there's bad pointer read.  The goal
      was to check for counter underflow.  The counter is a per cpu counter
      and there are two problems with the code:
      
       (1) per cpu access function isn't used, instead a naked pointer is used
           which easily causes oops.
       (2) the check doesn't sum all cpus
      
      Test:
        $ cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory
        $ mkdir x
        $ echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
        $ (echo $BASHPID >> x/tasks && exec cat) &
        [1] 7154
        $ grep ^mapped x/memory.stat
        mapped_file 53248
        $ echo 7154 > tasks
        $ rmdir x
        <OOPS>
      
      The fix is to remove the check.  It's currently dangerous and isn't
      worth fixing it to use something expensive, such as
      percpu_counter_sum(), for each reparented page.  __this_cpu_read() isn't
      enough to fix this because there's no guarantees of the current cpus
      count.  The only guarantees is that the sum of all per-cpu counter is >=
      nr_pages.

      memcg: use __this_cpu_sub() to dec stats to avoid incorrect subtrahend casting · 5e8cfc3c
      Greg Thelen 提交于
      As of commit 3ea67d06 ("memcg: add per cgroup writeback pages
      accounting") memcg counter errors are possible when moving charged
      memory to a different memcg.  Charge movement occurs when processing
      writes to memory.force_empty, moving tasks to a memcg with
      memcg.move_charge_at_immigrate=1, or memcg deletion.
      
      An example showing error after memory.force_empty:
      
        $ cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory
        $ mkdir x
        $ rm /data/tmp/file
        $ (echo $BASHPID >> x/tasks && exec mmap_writer /data/tmp/file 1M) &
        [1] 13600
        $ grep ^mapped x/memory.stat
        mapped_file 1048576
        $ echo 13600 > tasks
        $ echo 1 > x/memory.force_empty
        $ grep ^mapped x/memory.stat
        mapped_file 4503599627370496
      
      mapped_file should end with 0.
        4503599627370496 == 0x10,0000,0000,0000 == 0x100,0000,0000 pages
        1048576          == 0x10,0000           == 0x100 pages
      
      This issue only affects the source memcg on 64 bit machines; the
      destination memcg counters are correct.  So the rmdir case is not too
      important because such counters are soon disappearing with the entire
      memcg.  But the memcg.force_empty and memory.move_charge_at_immigrate=1
      cases are larger problems as the bogus counters are visible for the
      (possibly long) remaining life of the source memcg.
      
      The problem is due to memcg use of __this_cpu_from(.., -nr_pages), which
      is subtly wrong because it subtracts the unsigned int nr_pages (either
      -1 or -512 for THP) from a signed long percpu counter.  When
      nr_pages=-1, -nr_pages=0xffffffff.  On 64 bit machines stat->count[idx]
      is signed 64 bit.  So memcg's attempt to simply decrement a count (e.g.
      from 1 to 0) boils down to:
      
        long count = 1
        unsigned int nr_pages = 1
        count += -nr_pages  /* -nr_pages == 0xffff,ffff */
        count is now 0x1,0000,0000 instead of 0
      
      The fix is to subtract the unsigned page count rather than adding its
      negation.  This only works once "percpu: fix this_cpu_sub() subtrahend
      casting for unsigneds" is applied to fix this_cpu_sub().

      mm: list_lru: fix almost infinite loop causing effective livelock · c56b097a

      I've seen a fair number of issues with kswapd and other processes

      Notice that we had a very low number of inodes, which were reduced to
      zero my mult_frac().
      
      Now, prune_icache_sb() calls list_lru_walk_node() passing that number of
      inodes (0) into that as the number of objects to scan:
      
          long prune_icache_sb(struct super_block *sb, unsigned long nr_to_scan,
                               int nid)
          {
                  LIST_HEAD(freeable);
                  long freed;
      
                  freed = list_lru_walk_node(&sb->s_inode_lru, nid, inode_lru_isolate,
                                                 &freeable, &nr_to_scan);
      
      which does:
      
          unsigned long
          list_lru_walk_node(struct list_lru *lru, int nid, list_lru_walk_cb isolate,
                             void *cb_arg, unsigned long *nr_to_walk)
          {
      
                  struct list_lru_node    *nlru = &lru->node[nid];
                  struct list_head *item, *n;
                  unsigned long isolated = 0;
      
                  spin_lock(&nlru->lock);
          restart:
                  list_for_each_safe(item, n, &nlru->list) {
                          enum lru_status ret;
      
                          /*
                           * decrement nr_to_walk first so that we don't livelock if we

                          if (--(*nr_to_walk) == 0)
                                  break;
      
      So, if *nr_to_walk was zero when this function was entered, that means
      we're wanting to operate on (~0UL)+1 objects - which might as well be
      infinite.
      
      Clearly this is not correct behaviour.  If we think about the behaviour
      of this function when *nr_to_walk is 1, then clearly it's wrong - we
      decrement first and then test for zero - which results in us doing
      nothing at all.  A post-decrement would give the desired behaviour -
      we'd try to walk one object and one object only if *nr_to_walk were one.
      
      It also gives the correct behaviour for zero - we exit at this point.
