Add a flag to page_cgroup to remember "this page is charged as cache." cache here includes page caches and swap cache. This is useful for implementing precise accounting in memory cgroup.

This patch adds an interface "memory.force_empty". Any write to this file will drop all charges in this cgroup if there is no task under. %echo 1 > /....../memory.force_empty will drop all charges of memory cgroup if cgroup's tasks is empty. This is useful to invoke rmdir() against memory cgroup successfully. Tested and worked well on x86_64/fake-NUMA system.

Because NODE_DATA(node)->node_zonelists[] is guaranteed to contain all necessary zones, it is not necessary to use for_each_online_node. And this for_each_online_node() makes reclaim routine start always from node 0. This is not good. This patch makes reclaim start from caller's node and just use usual (default) zonelist order.

If we're charging rss and we're charging cache, it seems obvious that we should be charging swapcache - as has been done. But in practice that doesn't work out so well: both swapin readahead and swapoff leave the majority of pages charged to the wrong cgroup (the cgroup that happened to read them in, rather than the cgroup to which they belong). (Which is why unuse_pte's GFP_KERNEL while holding pte lock never showed up as a problem: no allocation was ever done there, every page read being already charged to the cgroup which initiated the swapoff.) It all works rather better if we leave the charging to do_swap_page and unuse_pte, and do nothing for swapcache itself: revert mm/swap_state.c to what it was before the memory-controller patches. This also speeds up significantly a contained process working at its limit: because it no longer needs to keep waiting for swap writeback to complete. Is it unfair that swap pages become uncharged once they're unmapped, even though they're still clearly private to particular cgroups? For a short while, yes; but PageReclaim arranges for those pages to go to the end of the inactive list and be reclaimed soon if necessary. shmem/tmpfs pages are a distinct case: their charging also benefits from this change, but their second life on the lists as swapcache pages may prove more unfair - that I need to check next.

mem_cgroup_charge_common shows a tendency to OOM without good reason, when a memhog goes well beyond its rss limit but with plenty of swap available. Seen on x86 but not on PowerPC; seen when the next patch omits swapcache from memcgroup, but we presume it can happen without. mem_cgroup_isolate_pages is not quite satisfying reclaim's criteria for OOM avoidance. Already it has to scan beyond the nr_to_scan limit when it finds a !LRU page or an active page when handling inactive or an inactive page when handling active. It needs to do exactly the same when it finds a page from the wrong zone (the x86 tests had two zones, the PowerPC tests had only one). Don't increment scan and then decrement it in these cases, just move the incrementation down. Fix recent off-by-one when checking against nr_to_scan. Cut out "Check if the meta page went away from under us", presumably left over from early debugging: no amount of such checks could save us if this list really were being updated without locking. This change does make the unlimited scan while holding two spinlocks even worse - bad for latency and bad for containment; but that's a separate issue which is better left to be fixed a little later.

This patch makes mem_cgroup_isolate_pages() to be - ignore !PageLRU pages. - fixes the bug that isolation makes no progress if page_zone(page) != zone page once find. (just increment scan in this case.) kswapd and memory migration removes a page from list when it handles a page for reclaiming/migration. Because __isolate_lru_page() doesn't moves page !PageLRU pages, it will be safe to avoid touching !PageLRU() page and its page_cgroup.

While using memory control cgroup, page-migration under it works as following. == 1. uncharge all refs at try to unmap. 2. charge regs again remove_migration_ptes() == This is simple but has following problems. == The page is uncharged and charged back again if *mapped*. - This means that cgroup before migration can be different from one after migration - If page is not mapped but charged as page cache, charge is just ignored (because not mapped, it will not be uncharged before migration) This is memory leak. == This patch tries to keep memory cgroup at page migration by increasing one refcnt during it. 3 functions are added. mem_cgroup_prepare_migration() --- increase refcnt of page->page_cgroup mem_cgroup_end_migration() --- decrease refcnt of page->page_cgroup mem_cgroup_page_migration() --- copy page->page_cgroup from old page to new page. During migration - old page is under PG_locked. - new page is under PG_locked, too. - both old page and new page is not on LRU. These 3 facts guarantee that page_cgroup() migration has no race. Tested and worked well in x86_64/fake-NUMA box.

The current kswapd (and try_to_free_pages) code has an oddity where the code will wait on IO, even if there is no IO in flight. This problem is notable especially when the system scans through many unfreeable pages, causing unnecessary stalls in the VM. Additionally, tasks without __GFP_FS or __GFP_IO in the direct reclaim path will sleep if a significant number of pages are encountered that should be written out. This gives kswapd a chance to write out those pages, while the direct reclaim task sleeps.

Adds a new sysctl, 'oom_dump_tasks', that enables the kernel to produce a dump of all system tasks (excluding kernel threads) when performing an OOM-killing. Information includes pid, uid, tgid, vm size, rss, cpu, oom_adj score, and name. This is helpful for determining why there was an OOM condition and which rogue task caused it. It is configurable so that large systems, such as those with several thousand tasks, do not incur a performance penalty associated with dumping data they may not desire. If an OOM was triggered as a result of a memory controller, the tasklist shall be filtered to exclude tasks that are not a member of the same cgroup.

Creates a helper function to return non-zero if a task is a member of a memory controller: int task_in_mem_cgroup(const struct task_struct *task, const struct mem_cgroup *mem); When the OOM killer is constrained by the memory controller, the exclusion of tasks that are not a member of that controller was previously misplaced and appeared in the badness scoring function. It should be excluded during the tasklist scan in select_bad_process() instead.

Nick Piggin pointed out that swap cache and page cache addition routines could be called from non GFP_KERNEL contexts. This patch makes the charging routine aware of the gfp context. Charging might fail if the cgroup is over it's limit, in which case a suitable error is returned. This patch was tested on a Powerpc box. I am still looking at being able to test the path, through which allocations happen in non GFP_KERNEL contexts.

Add the accounting hooks. The accounting is carried out for RSS and Page Cache (unmapped) pages. There is now a common limit and accounting for both. The RSS accounting is accounted at page_add_*_rmap() and page_remove_rmap() time. Page cache is accounted at add_to_page_cache(), __delete_from_page_cache(). Swap cache is also accounted for. Each page's page_cgroup is protected with the last bit of the page_cgroup pointer, this makes handling of race conditions involving simultaneous mappings of a page easier. A reference count is kept in the page_cgroup to deal with cases where a page might be unmapped from the RSS of all tasks, but still lives in the page cache. Credits go to Vaidyanathan Srinivasan for helping with reference counting work of the page cgroup. Almost all of the page cache accounting code has help from Vaidyanathan Srinivasan.

With fixes from David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Introduce generic structures and routines for resource accounting.

This patch precisely reverts the "swapoff: scan ptes preemptibly" patch just presented. It's a temporary measure to allow existing memory controller patches to apply without rejects: in due course they should be rendered down into one sensible patch, and this reversion disappear.

Move the calls to the cgroup subsystem destroy() methods from cgroup_rmdir() to cgroup_diput(). This allows control file reads and writes to access their subsystem state without having to be concerned with locking against cgroup destruction - the control file dentry will keep the cgroup and its subsystem state objects alive until the file is closed. The documentation is updated to reflect the changed semantics of destroy(); additionally the locking comments for destroy() and some other methods were clarified and decrustified.
