mm: memcontrol: fix occasional OOMs due to proportional memory.low reclaim

2021-08-26T12:35:57+00:00

[ Upstream commit f56ce412a59d7d938b81de8878faef128812482c ] We've noticed occasional OOM killing when memory.low settings are in effect for cgroups. This is unexpected and undesirable as memory.low is supposed to express non-OOMing memory priorities between cgroups. The reason for this is proportional memory.low reclaim. When cgroups are below their memory.low threshold, reclaim passes them over in the first round, and then retries if it couldn't find pages anywhere else. But when cgroups are slightly above their memory.low setting, page scan force is scaled down and diminished in proportion to the overage, to the point where it can cause reclaim to fail as well - only in that case we currently don't retry, and instead trigger OOM. To fix this, hook proportional reclaim into the same retry logic we have in place for when cgroups are skipped entirely. This way if reclaim fails and some cgroups were scanned with diminished pressure, we'll try another full-force cycle before giving up and OOMing.

mm/memcg: rename mem_cgroup_split_huge_fixup to split_page_memcg and add nr_pages argument

2021-03-30T12:31:47+00:00

commit be6c8982e4ab9a41907555f601b711a7e2a17d4c upstream. Rename mem_cgroup_split_huge_fixup to split_page_memcg and explicitly pass in page number argument. In this way, the interface name is more common and can be used by potential users. In addition, the complete info(memcg and flag) of the memcg needs to be set to the tail pages.

mm: memcg: relayout structure mem_cgroup to avoid cache interference

2020-11-26T17:35:49+00:00

0day reported one -22.7% regression for will-it-scale page_fault2 case [1] on a 4 sockets 144 CPU platform, and bisected to it to be caused by Waiman's optimization (commit bd0b230fe1) of saving one 'struct page_counter' space for 'struct mem_cgroup'. Initially we thought it was due to the cache alignment change introduced by the patch, but further debug shows that it is due to some hot data members ('vmstats_local', 'vmstats_percpu', 'vmstats') sit in 2 adjacent cacheline (2N and 2N+1 cacheline), and when adjacent cache line prefetch is enabled, it triggers an "extended level" of cache false sharing for 2 adjacent cache lines. So exchange the 2 member blocks, while keeping mostly the original cache alignment, which can restore and even enhance the performance, and save 64 bytes of space for 'struct mem_cgroup' (from 2880 to 2816, with 0day's default RHEL-8.3 kernel config) [1]. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201102091543.GM31092@shao2-debian/ Fixes: bd0b230fe145 ("mm/memcg: unify swap and memsw page counters") Reported-by: kernel test robot Signed-off-by: Feng Tang Acked-by: Waiman Long Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

mm: kmem: enable kernel memcg accounting from interrupt contexts

2020-10-18T16:27:09+00:00

If a memcg to charge can be determined (using remote charging API), there are no reasons to exclude allocations made from an interrupt context from the accounting. Such allocations will pass even if the resulting memcg size will exceed the hard limit, but it will affect the application of the memory pressure and an inability to put the workload under the limit will eventually trigger the OOM. To use active_memcg() helper, memcg_kmem_bypass() is moved back to memcontrol.c.

mm/memcg: unify swap and memsw page counters

2020-10-14T01:38:30+00:00

The swap page counter is v2 only while memsw is v1 only. As v1 and v2 controllers cannot be active at the same time, there is no point to keep both swap and memsw page counters in mem_cgroup. The previous patch has made sure that memsw page counter is updated and accessed only when in v1 code paths. So it is now safe to alias the v1 memsw page counter to v2 swap page counter. This saves 14 long's in the size of mem_cgroup. This is a saving of 112 bytes for 64-bit archs. While at it, also document which page counters are used in v1 and/or v2.

mm: memcg/percpu: per-memcg percpu memory statistics

2020-08-12T17:57:55+00:00

Percpu memory can represent a noticeable chunk of the total memory consumption, especially on big machines with many CPUs. Let's track percpu memory usage for each memcg and display it in memory.stat. A percpu allocation is usually scattered over multiple pages (and nodes), and can be significantly smaller than a page. So let's add a byte-sized counter on the memcg level: MEMCG_PERCPU_B. Byte-sized vmstat infra created for slabs can be perfectly reused for percpu case.

mm, memcg: decouple e{low,min} state mutations from protection checks

2020-08-07T18:33:25+00:00

mem_cgroup_protected currently is both used to set effective low and min and return a mem_cgroup_protection based on the result. As a user, this can be a little unexpected: it appears to be a simple predicate function, if not for the big warning in the comment above about the order in which it must be executed. This change makes it so that we separate the state mutations from the actual protection checks, which makes it more obvious where we need to be careful mutating internal state, and where we are simply checking and don't need to worry about that.
