Patch series "memcg: initiate deprecation of v1 features", v2. Start the deprecation process of the memcg v1 features which we discussed during LSFMMBPF 2024 [1]. For now add the warnings to collect the information on how the current users are using these features. Next we will work on providing better alternatives in v2 (if needed) and fully deprecate these features. Link: https://lwn.net/Articles/974575 [1] This patch (of 4): Memcg v1 provides opt-in TCP memory accounting feature. However it is mostly unused due to its performance impact on the network traffic. In v2, the TCP memory is accounted in the regular memory usage and is transparent to the users but they can observe the TCP memory usage through memcg stats. Let's initiate the deprecation process of memcg v1's tcp accounting functionality and add warnings to gather if there are any users and if there are, collect how they are using it and plan to provide them better alternative in v2.

Currently the common code path for charge commit, swapout and batched uncharge are executing v1 only code which is completely useless for the v2 deployments where CONFIG_MEMCG_V1 is disabled. In addition, it is mucking with IRQs which might be slow on some architectures. Let's move all of this code to v1 only code and remove them from v2 only deployments.

Patch series "memcg: further decouple v1 code from v2". Some of the v1 code is still in v2 code base due to v1 fields in the struct memcg_vmstats_percpu. This field decouples those fileds from v2 struct and move all the related code into v1 only code base. This patch (of 7): At the moment struct memcg_vmstats_percpu contains two v1 only fields which consumes memory even when CONFIG_MEMCG_V1 is not enabled. In addition there are v1 only functions accessing them and are in the main memcontrol source file and can not be moved to v1 only source file due to these fields. Let's move these fields into their own struct. Later patches will move the functions accessing them to v1 source file and only allocate these fields when CONFIG_MEMCG_V1 is enabled.

Not all users of mas_store() enter with nodes already preallocated. Check for the MA_STATE_PREALLOC flag to decide whether to preallocate nodes within mas_store() rather than relying on future write helper functions to perform the allocations. This allows the write helper functions to be simplified as they do not have to do checks to make sure there are enough allocated nodes to perform the write.

Introduce mas_wr_store_type() which will set the correct store type based on a walk of the tree. In mas_wr_node_store() the <= min_slots condition is changed to < as if new_end is = to mt_min_slots then there is not enough room. mas_prealloc_calc() is also introduced to abstract the calculation used to determine the number of nodes needed for a store operation. In this change a call to mas_reset() is removed in the error case of mas_prealloc(). This is only needed in the MA_STATE_REBALANCE case of mas_destroy(). We can move the call to mas_reset() directly to mas_destroy(). Also, add a test case to validate the order that we check the store type in is correct. This test models a vma expanding and then shrinking which is part of the boot process. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240814161944.55347-5-sidhartha.kumar@oracle.comSigned-off-by:

Patch series "Introduce a store type enum for the Maple tree", v4. ================================ OVERVIEW ================================ This series implements two work items[3]: "aligning mas_store_gfp() with mas_preallocate()" and "enum for store type". mas_store_gfp() is modified to preallocate nodes. This simplies many of the write helper functions by allowing them to use mas_store_gfp() rather than open coding node allocation and error handling. The enum defines the following store types: enum store_type { wr_invalid, wr_new_root, wr_store_root, wr_exact_fit, wr_spanning_store, wr_split_store, wr_rebalance, wr_append, wr_node_store, wr_slot_store, }; In the current maple tree code, a walk down the tree is done in mas_preallocate() to determine the number of nodes needed for this write. After node allocation, mas_wr_store_entry() will perform another walk to determine which write helper function to use to complete the write. Rather than performing the second walk, we can store the type of write in the maple write state during node allocation and read this field to complete the write. Patches 1-16 implement this store type feature. Patch 17 is a cleanup patch to change functions that have unused return types to be void. ================================ RESULTS ================================= Phoronix t-test-1 (Seconds < Lower Is Better) v6.10-rc6 Threads: 1 33.15 Threads: 2 10.81 v6.10-rc6 + this series Threads: 1 32.69 Threads: 2 10.45 Stress-ng mmap 6.10_base store_type_v4 Duration User 2744.65 2769.40 Duration System 10862.69 10817.59 Duration Elapsed 1477.58 1478.35 ================================ TESTING ================================= Testing was done with the maple tree test suite.

obj_cgroup_memcg() is supposed to safe to prevent the returned memory cgroup from being freed only when the caller is holding the rcu read lock or objcg_lock or cgroup_mutex. It is very easy to ignore thoes conditions when users call some upper APIs which call obj_cgroup_memcg() internally like mem_cgroup_from_slab_obj() (See the link below). So it is better to add lockdep assertion to obj_cgroup_memcg() to find those issues ASAP. Because there is no user of obj_cgroup_memcg() holding objcg_lock to make the returned memory cgroup safe, do not add objcg_lock assertion (We should export objcg_lock if we really want to do). Additionally, this is some internal implementation detail of memcg and should not be accessible outside memcg code. Some users like __mem_cgroup_uncharge() do not care the lifetime of the returned memory cgroup, which just want to know if the folio is charged to a memory cgroup, therefore, they do not need to hold the needed locks. In which case, introduce a new helper folio_memcg_charged() to do this. Compare it to folio_memcg(), it could eliminate a memory access of objcg->memcg for kmem, actually, a really small gain.

The Meta prod is seeing large amount of stalls in memcg stats flush from the memcg reclaim code path. At the moment, this specific callsite is doing a synchronous memcg stats flush. The rstat flush is an expensive and time consuming operation, so concurrent relaimers will busywait on the lock potentially for a long time. Actually this issue is not unique to Meta and has been observed by Cloudflare [1] as well. For the Cloudflare case, the stalls were due to contention between kswapd threads running on their 8 numa node machines which does not make sense as rstat flush is global and flush from one kswapd thread should be sufficient for all. Simply replace the synchronous flush with the ratelimited one. One may raise a concern on potentially using 2 sec stale (at worst) stats for heuristics like desirable inactive:active ratio and preferring inactive file pages over anon pages but these specific heuristics do not require very precise stats and also are ignored under severe memory pressure. More specifically for this code path, the stats are needed for two specific heuristics: 1. Deactivate LRUs 2. Cache trim mode The deactivate LRUs heuristic is to maintain a desirable inactive:active ratio of the LRUs. The specific stats needed are WORKINGSET_ACTIVATE* and the hierarchical LRU size. The WORKINGSET_ACTIVATE* is needed to check if there is a refault since last snapshot and the LRU size are needed for the desirable ratio between inactive and active LRUs. See the table below on how the desirable ratio is calculated. /* total target max * memory ratio inactive * ------------------------------------- * 10MB 1 5MB * 100MB 1 50MB * 1GB 3 250MB * 10GB 10 0.9GB * 100GB 31 3GB * 1TB 101 10GB * 10TB 320 32GB */ The desirable ratio only changes at the boundary of 1 GiB, 10 GiB, 100 GiB, 1 TiB and 10 TiB. There is no need for the precise and accurate LRU size information to calculate this ratio. In addition, if deactivation is skipped for some LRU, the kernel will force deactive on the severe memory pressure situation. For the cache trim mode, inactive file LRU size is read and the kernel scales it down based on the reclaim iteration (file >> sc->priority) and only checks if it is zero or not. Again precise information is not needed. This patch has been running on Meta fleet for several months and we have not observed any issues. Please note that MGLRU is not impacted by this issue at all as it avoids rstat flushing completely.

All relevant architectures had already been converted to the new interface (which just has an underscore in front of the name - not very imaginative naming), this just force-converts the stragglers. The modern interface is almost identical to the old one, except instead of the page pointer it takes a "struct vm_special_mapping" that describes the mapping (and contains the page pointer as one member), and it returns the resulting 'vma' instead of just the error code. Getting rid of the old interface also gets rid of some special casing, which had caused problems with the mremap extensions to "struct vm_special_mapping".

Linus noticed that the error handling in __arch_setup_additional_pages() fails to clear the mm VDSO pointer if _install_special_mapping() fails. In practice there should be no actual bug, because if there's an error the VDSO pointer is cleared later in arch_setup_additional_pages(). However it's no longer necessary to set the pointer before installing the mapping. Commit c1bab643 ("powerpc/vdso: Move to _install_special_mapping() and remove arch_vma_name()") reworked the code so that the VMA name comes from the vm_special_mapping.name, rather than relying on arch_vma_name(). So rework the code to only set the VDSO pointer once the mappings have been installed correctly, and remove the stale comment.

Add an optional close() callback to struct vm_special_mapping. It will be used, by powerpc at least, to handle unmapping of the VDSO. Although support for unmapping the VDSO was initially added for CRIU[1], it is not desirable to guard that support behind CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. There are other known users of unmapping the VDSO which are not related to CRIU, eg. Valgrind [2] and void-ship [3]. The powerpc arch_unmap() hook has been in place for ~9 years, with no ifdef, so there may be other unknown users that have come to rely on unmapping the VDSO. Even if the code was behind an ifdef, major distros enable CHECKPOINT_RESTORE so users may not realise unmapping the VDSO depends on that configuration option. It's also undesirable to have such core mm behaviour behind a relatively obscure CONFIG option. Longer term the unmap behaviour should be standardised across architectures, however that is complicated by the fact the VDSO pointer is stored differently across architectures. There was a previous attempt to unify that handling [4], which could be revived. See [5] for further discussion.

Fix the typo according to the code. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240812150925.31551-1-richard.weiyang@gmail.comSigned-off-by:

Add new callback fields to the userspace implementation of struct kmem_cache. This allows for executing callback functions in order to further test low memory scenarios where node allocation is retried. This callback can help test race conditions by calling a function when a low memory event is tested. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240812190543.71967-2-sidhartha.kumar@oracle.comSigned-off-by:

The following scenario can result in a race condition: Consider a node with the following indices and values a<------->b<----------->c<--------->d 0xA NULL 0xB CPU 1 CPU 2 --------- --------- mas_set_range(a,b) mas_erase() -> range is expanded (a,c) because of null expansion mas_nomem() mas_unlock() mas_store_range(b,c,0xC) The node now looks like: a<------->b<----------->c<--------->d 0xA 0xC 0xB mas_lock() mas_erase() <------ range of erase is still (a,c) The node is now NULL from (a,c) but the write from CPU 2 should have been retained and range (b,c) should still have 0xC as its value. We can fix this by re-intializing to the original index and last. This does not need a cc: Stable as there are no users of the maple tree which use internal locking and this condition is only possible with internal locking.

Batch the HVO work, including de-HVO of the source and HVO of the destination hugeTLB folios, to speed up demotion. After commit bd225530 ("mm/hugetlb_vmemmap: fix race with speculative PFN walkers"), each request of HVO or de-HVO, batched or not, invokes synchronize_rcu() once. For example, when not batched, demoting one 1GB hugeTLB folio to 512 2MB hugeTLB folios invokes synchronize_rcu() 513 times (1 de-HVO plus 512 HVO requests), whereas when batched, only twice (1 de-HVO plus 1 HVO request). And the performance difference between the two cases is significant, e.g., echo 2048kB >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/demote_size time echo 100 >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/demote Before this patch: real 8m58.158s user 0m0.009s sys 0m5.900s After this patch: real 0m0.900s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.851s Note that this patch changes the behavior of the `demote` interface when de-HVO fails. Before, the interface aborts immediately upon failure; now, it tries to finish an entire batch, meaning it can make extra progress if the rest of the batch contains folios that do not need to de-HVO.

Whoever passes a folio to __folio_batch_add_and_move() must hold a reference, otherwise something else would already be messed up. If the folio is referenced, it will not be freed elsewhere, so we can safely clear the folio's lru flag. As discussed with David in [1], we should take the reference after testing the LRU flag, not before.
