commit 3510955b327176fd4cbab5baa75b449f077722a2 upstream.

<id>urn:sha1:7a47d18731205a1659359083ef75e001e20cd648</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 3e8589963773a5c23e2f1fe4bcad0e9a90b7f471 upstream.

We have a single node system with node 0 disabled:
  Scanning NUMA topology in Northbridge 24
  Number of physical nodes 2
  Skipping disabled node 0
  Node 1 MemBase 0000000000000000 Limit 00000000fbff0000
  NODE_DATA(1) allocated [mem 0xfbfda000-0xfbfeffff]

This causes crashes in memcg when system boots:
  BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008
  #PF error: [normal kernel read fault]
...
  RIP: 0010:list_lru_add+0x94/0x170
...
  Call Trace:
   d_lru_add+0x44/0x50
   dput.part.34+0xfc/0x110
   __fput+0x108/0x230
   task_work_run+0x9f/0xc0
   exit_to_usermode_loop+0xf5/0x100

It is reproducible as far as 4.12.  I did not try older kernels.  You have
to have a new enough systemd, e.g.  241 (the reason is unknown -- was not
investigated).  Cannot be reproduced with systemd 234.

The system crashes because the size of lru array is never updated in
memcg_update_all_list_lrus and the reads are past the zero-sized array,
causing dereferences of random memory.

The root cause are list_lru_memcg_aware checks in the list_lru code.  The
test in list_lru_memcg_aware is broken: it assumes node 0 is always
present, but it is not true on some systems as can be seen above.

So fix this by avoiding checks on node 0.  Remember the memcg-awareness by
a bool flag in struct list_lru.

commit 2c80cd57c74339889a8752b20862a16c28929c3a upstream.

list_lru_count_node() iterates over all memcgs to get the total number of
entries on the node but it can race with memcg_drain_all_list_lrus(),
which migrates the entries from a dead cgroup to another.  This can return
incorrect number of entries from list_lru_count_node().

Fix this by keeping track of entries per node and simply return it in
list_lru_count_node().

commit 1bc11d70b5db7c6bb1414b283d7f09b1fe1ac0d0 upstream.

As described in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=177821:

After some analysis it seems to be that the problem is in alloc_super().
In case list_lru_init_memcg() fails it goes into destroy_super(), which
calls list_lru_destroy().

And in list_lru_init() we see that in case memcg_init_list_lru() fails,
lru-&gt;node is freed, but not set NULL, which then leads list_lru_destroy()
to believe it is initialized and call memcg_destroy_list_lru().
memcg_destroy_list_lru() in turn can access lru-&gt;node[i].memcg_lrus,
which is NULL.

Before the previous patch ("memcg: unify slab and other kmem pages
charging"), __mem_cgroup_from_kmem had to handle two types of kmem - slab
pages and pages allocated with alloc_kmem_pages - memcg in the page
struct.  Now we can unify it.  Since after it, this function becomes tiny
we can fold it into mem_cgroup_from_kmem.

The functions used in the patch are in slowpath, which gets called
whenever alloc_super is called during mounts.

Though this should not make difference for the architectures with
sequential numa node ids, for the powerpc which can potentially have
sparse node ids (for e.g., 4 node system having numa ids, 0,1,16,17 is
common), this patch saves some unnecessary allocations for non existing
numa nodes.

Even without that saving, perhaps patch makes code more readable.

<title>memcg: reparent list_lrus and free kmemcg_id on css offline</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2788cf0c401c268b4819c5407493a8769b7007aa</id>
<content type='text'>
Now, the only reason to keep kmemcg_id till css free is list_lru, which
uses it to distribute elements between per-memcg lists.  However, it can
be easily sorted out - we only need to change kmemcg_id of an offline
cgroup to its parent's id, making further list_lru_add()'s add elements to
the parent's list, and then move all elements from the offline cgroup's
list to the one of its parent.  It will work, because a racing
list_lru_del() does not need to know the list it is deleting the element
from.  It can decrement the wrong nr_items counter though, but the ongoing
reparenting will fix it.  After list_lru reparenting is done we are free
to release kmemcg_id saving a valuable slot in a per-memcg array for new
cgroups.

<title>list_lru: add helpers to isolate items</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3f97b163207c67a3b35931494ad3db1de66356f0</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, the isolate callback passed to the list_lru_walk family of
functions is supposed to just delete an item from the list upon returning
LRU_REMOVED or LRU_REMOVED_RETRY, while nr_items counter is fixed by
__list_lru_walk_one after the callback returns.  Since the callback is
allowed to drop the lock after removing an item (it has to return
LRU_REMOVED_RETRY then), the nr_items can be less than the actual number
of elements on the list even if we check them under the lock.  This makes
it difficult to move items from one list_lru_one to another, which is
required for per-memcg list_lru reparenting - we can't just splice the
lists, we have to move entries one by one.

This patch therefore introduces helpers that must be used by callback
functions to isolate items instead of raw list_del/list_move.  These are
list_lru_isolate and list_lru_isolate_move.  They not only remove the
entry from the list, but also fix the nr_items counter, making sure
nr_items always reflects the actual number of elements on the list if
checked under the appropriate lock.

<id>urn:sha1:60d3fd32a7a9da4c8c93a9f89cfda22a0b4c65ce</id>
<content type='text'>
There are several FS shrinkers, including super_block::s_shrink, that
keep reclaimable objects in the list_lru structure.  Hence to turn them
to memcg-aware shrinkers, it is enough to make list_lru per-memcg.

This patch does the trick.  It adds an array of lru lists to the
list_lru_node structure (per-node part of the list_lru), one for each
kmem-active memcg, and dispatches every item addition or removal to the
list corresponding to the memcg which the item is accounted to.  So now
the list_lru structure is not just per node, but per node and per memcg.

Not all list_lrus need this feature, so this patch also adds a new
method, list_lru_init_memcg, which initializes a list_lru as memcg
aware.  Otherwise (i.e.  if initialized with old list_lru_init), the
list_lru won't have per memcg lists.

Just like per memcg caches arrays, the arrays of per-memcg lists are
indexed by memcg_cache_id, so we must grow them whenever
memcg_nr_cache_ids is increased.  So we introduce a callback,
memcg_update_all_list_lrus, invoked by memcg_alloc_cache_id if the id
space is full.

The locking is implemented in a manner similar to lruvecs, i.e.  we have
one lock per node that protects all lists (both global and per cgroup) on
the node.
