After removal of CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP we have two equivalent
functions that call memory_present() for each region in memblock.memory:
sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions() and membocks_present().
Moreover, all architectures have a call to either of these functions
preceding the call to sparse_init() and in the most cases they are called
one after the other.
Mark the regions from memblock.memory as present during sparce_init() by
making sparse_init() call memblocks_present(), make memblocks_present()
and memory_present() functions static and remove redundant
sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions() function.
Also remove no longer required HAVE_MEMORY_PRESENT configuration option.

There are two code path which invoke __populate_section_memmap()
* sparse_init_nid()
* sparse_add_section()
For both case, we are sure the memory range is sub-section aligned.
* we pass PAGES_PER_SECTION to sparse_init_nid()
* we check range by check_pfn_span() before calling
sparse_add_section()
Also, the counterpart of __populate_section_memmap(), we don't do such
calculation and check since the range is checked by check_pfn_span() in
__remove_pages().
Clear the calculation and check to keep it simple and comply with its
counterpart.

For early sections, its memmap is handled specially even sub-section is
enabled. The memmap could only be populated as a whole.
Quoted from the comment of section_activate():
* The early init code does not consider partially populated
* initial sections, it simply assumes that memory will never be
* referenced. If we hot-add memory into such a section then we
* do not need to populate the memmap and can simply reuse what
* is already there.
While current section_deactivate() breaks this rule. When hot-remove a
sub-section, section_deactivate() would depopulate its memmap. The
consequence is if we hot-add this subsection again, its memmap never get
proper populated.
We can reproduce the case by following steps:
1. Hacking qemu to allow sub-section early section

2. Bootup qemu with PSE disabled and a sub-section aligned memory size
Part of the qemu command would look like this:
sudo x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 \
--enable-kvm -cpu host,pse=off \
-m 4160M,maxmem=20G,slots=1 \

3. Re-config a pmem device with sub-section size in guest
ndctl create-namespace --force --reconfig=namespace0.0 --mode=devdax --size=16M

After previous cleanup, extent is the minimal step for both source and
destination. This means when extent is HPAGE_PMD_SIZE or PMD_SIZE,
old_addr and new_addr are properly aligned too.
Since these two functions are only invoked in move_page_tables, it is safe
to remove the check now.

Page tables is moved on the base of PMD. This requires both source and
destination range should meet the requirement.
Current code works well since move_huge_pmd() and move_normal_pmd() would
check old_addr and new_addr again. And then return to move_ptes() if the
either of them is not aligned.
Instead of calculating the extent separately, it is better to calculate in
one place, so we know it is not necessary to try move pmd. By doing so,
the logic seems a little clear.

Patch series "mm/mremap: cleanup move_page_tables() a little", v5.
move_page_tables() tries to move page table by PMD or PTE.
The root reason is if it tries to move PMD, both old and new range should
be PMD aligned. But current code calculate old range and new range
separately. This leads to some redundant check and calculation.
This cleanup tries to consolidate the range check in one place to reduce
some extra range handling.
This patch (of 3):
old_end is passed to these two functions to check whether there is enough
space to do the move, while this check is done before invoking these
functions.
These two functions only would be invoked when extent meets the
requirement and there is one check before invoking these functions:
if (extent > old_end - old_addr)
extent = old_end - old_addr;
This implies (old_end - old_addr) won't fail the check in these two
functions.

The current split between do_mmap() and do_mmap_pgoff() was introduced in
commit 1fcfd8db7f82 ("mm, mpx: add "vm_flags_t vm_flags" arg to
do_mmap_pgoff()") to support MPX.
The wrapper function do_mmap_pgoff() always passed 0 as the value of the
vm_flags argument to do_mmap(). However, MPX support has subsequently
been removed from the kernel and there were no more direct callers of
do_mmap(); all calls were going via do_mmap_pgoff().
Simplify the code by removing do_mmap_pgoff() and changing all callers to
directly call do_mmap(), which now no longer takes a vm_flags argument.

The vm_flags may be changed after call_mmap() because drivers may set some
flags for their own purpose. As a result, we failed to merge the adjacent
vma due to the different vm_flags as userspace can't pass in the same one.

Device memory ranges when getting hot added into ZONE_DEVICE, might
require their vmemmap mapping's backing memory to be allocated from their
own range instead of consuming system memory. This prevents large system
memory usage for potentially large device memory ranges. Device driver
communicates this request via vmem_altmap structure. Architecture needs
to take this request into account while creating and tearing down vemmmap
mappings.
This enables vmem_altmap support in vmemmap_populate() and vmemmap_free()
which includes vmemmap_populate_basepages() used for ARM64_16K_PAGES and
ARM64_64K_PAGES configs.

There are many instances where vmemap allocation is often switched between
regular memory and device memory just based on whether altmap is available
or not. vmemmap_alloc_block_buf() is used in various platforms to
allocate vmemmap mappings. Lets also enable it to handle altmap based
device memory allocation along with existing regular memory allocations.
This will help in avoiding the altmap based allocation switch in many
places. To summarize there are two different methods to call
vmemmap_alloc_block_buf().
vmemmap_alloc_block_buf(size, node, NULL) /* Allocate from system RAM */
vmemmap_alloc_block_buf(size, node, altmap) /* Allocate from altmap */
This converts altmap_alloc_block_buf() into a static function, drops it's
entry from the header and updates Documentation/vm/memory-model.rst.

Patch series "arm64: Enable vmemmap mapping from device memory", v4.
This series enables vmemmap backing memory allocation from device memory
ranges on arm64. But before that, it enables vmemmap_populate_basepages()
and vmemmap_alloc_block_buf() to accommodate struct vmem_altmap based
alocation requests.
This patch (of 3):
vmemmap_populate_basepages() is used across platforms to allocate backing
memory for vmemmap mapping. This is used as a standard default choice or
as a fallback when intended huge pages allocation fails. This just
creates entire vmemmap mapping with base pages (PAGE_SIZE).
On arm64 platforms, vmemmap_populate_basepages() is called instead of the
platform specific vmemmap_populate() when ARM64_SWAPPER_USES_SECTION_MAPS
is not enabled as in case for ARM64_16K_PAGES and ARM64_64K_PAGES configs.
At present vmemmap_populate_basepages() does not support allocating from
driver defined struct vmem_altmap while trying to create vmemmap mapping
for a device memory range. It prevents ARM64_16K_PAGES and
ARM64_64K_PAGES configs on arm64 from supporting device memory with
vmemap_altmap request.
This enables vmem_altmap support in vmemmap_populate_basepages() unlocking
device memory allocation for vmemap mapping on arm64 platforms with 16K or
64K base page configs.
Each architecture should evaluate and decide on subscribing device memory
based base page allocation through vmemmap_populate_basepages(). Hence
lets keep it disabled on all archs in order to preserve the existing
semantics. A subsequent patch enables it on arm64.

When checking a performance change for will-it-scale scalability mmap test
[1], we found very high lock contention for spinlock of percpu counter
'vm_committed_as':
94.14% 0.35% [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
48.21% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave;percpu_counter_add_batch;__vm_enough_memory;mmap_region;do_mmap;
45.91% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave;percpu_counter_add_batch;__do_munmap;
Actually this heavy lock contention is not always necessary. The
'vm_committed_as' needs to be very precise when the strict
OVERCOMMIT_NEVER policy is set, which requires a rather small batch number
for the percpu counter.
So keep 'batch' number unchanged for strict OVERCOMMIT_NEVER policy, and
lift it to 64X for OVERCOMMIT_ALWAYS and OVERCOMMIT_GUESS policies. Also
add a sysctl handler to adjust it when the policy is reconfigured.
Benchmark with the same testcase in [1] shows 53% improvement on a 8C/16T
desktop, and 2097%(20X) on a 4S/72C/144T server. We tested with test
platforms in 0day (server, desktop and laptop), and 80%+ platforms shows
improvements with that test. And whether it shows improvements depends on
if the test mmap size is bigger than the batch number computed.
And if the lift is 16X, 1/3 of the platforms will show improvements,
though it should help the mmap/unmap usage generally, as Michal Hocko
mentioned:
: I believe that there are non-synthetic worklaods which would benefit from
: a larger batch. E.g. large in memory databases which do large mmaps
: during startups from multiple threads.

percpu_counter's accuracy is related to its batch size. For a
percpu_counter with a big batch, its deviation could be big, so when the
counter's batch is runtime changed to a smaller value for better accuracy,
there could also be requirment to reduce the big deviation.
So add a percpu-counter sync function to be run on each CPU.

percpu_counter_sum_positive() will provide more accurate info.
As with percpu_counter_read_positive(), in worst case the deviation could
be 'batch * nr_cpus', which is totalram_pages/256 for now, and will be
more when the batch gets enlarged.
Its time cost is about 800 nanoseconds on a 2C/4T platform and 2~3
microseconds on a 2S/36C/72T Skylake server in normal case, and in worst
case where vm_committed_as's spinlock is under severe contention, it costs
30~40 microseconds for the 2S/36C/72T Skylake sever, which should be fine
for its only two users: /proc/meminfo and HyperV balloon driver's status
trace per second.

Patch series "make vm_committed_as_batch aware of vm overcommit policy", v6.
When checking a performance change for will-it-scale scalability mmap test
[1], we found very high lock contention for spinlock of percpu counter
'vm_committed_as':
94.14% 0.35% [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
48.21% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave;percpu_counter_add_batch;__vm_enough_memory;mmap_region;do_mmap;
45.91% _raw_spin_lock_irqsave;percpu_counter_add_batch;__do_munmap;
Actually this heavy lock contention is not always necessary. The
'vm_committed_as' needs to be very precise when the strict
OVERCOMMIT_NEVER policy is set, which requires a rather small batch number
for the percpu counter.
So keep 'batch' number unchanged for strict OVERCOMMIT_NEVER policy, and
enlarge it for not-so-strict OVERCOMMIT_ALWAYS and OVERCOMMIT_GUESS
policies.
Benchmark with the same testcase in [1] shows 53% improvement on a 8C/16T
desktop, and 2097%(20X) on a 4S/72C/144T server. And for that case,
whether it shows improvements depends on if the test mmap size is bigger
than the batch number computed.
We tested 10+ platforms in 0day (server, desktop and laptop). If we lift
it to 64X, 80%+ platforms show improvements, and for 16X lift, 1/3 of the
platforms will show improvements.
And generally it should help the mmap/unmap usage,as Michal Hocko
mentioned:
: I believe that there are non-synthetic worklaods which would benefit
: from a larger batch. E.g. large in memory databases which do large
: mmaps during startups from multiple threads.
Note: There are some style complain from checkpatch for patch 4, as sysctl
handler declaration follows the similar format of sibling functions

This patch (of 4):
Use the existing vm_memory_committed() instead, which is also convenient
for future change.

Look at the pseudo code below. It's very clear that, the judgement
"!is_file_hugepages(file)" at 3) is duplicated to the one at 1), we can
use "else if" to avoid it. And the assignment "retval = -EINVAL" at 2) is
only needed by the branch 3), because "retval" will be overwritten at 4).
No functional change, but it can reduce the code size. Maybe more clearer?

For most architectures that support >2 levels of page tables,
pmd_alloc_one() is a wrapper for __get_free_pages(), sometimes with
__GFP_ZERO and sometimes followed by memset(0) instead.
More elaborate versions on arm64 and x86 account memory for the user page
tables and call to pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() as the part of PMD page
initialization.
Move the arm64 version to include/asm-generic/pgalloc.h and use the
generic version on several architectures.
The pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() is a NOP when ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK is
not enabled, so there is no functional change for most architectures
except of the addition of __GFP_ACCOUNT for allocation of user page
tables.
The pmd_free() is a wrapper for free_page() in all the cases, so no
functional change here.

sets the PTE to a non-zero value. Splitting ptes_clear() helper out of
pte_alloc_one() and pte_alloc_one_kernel() allows reuse of base generic
allocation methods (__pte_alloc_one() and __pte_alloc_one_kernel()) and
the common GFP mask for page table allocations.

Patch series "mm: cleanup usage of <asm/pgalloc.h>"
Most architectures have very similar versions of pXd_alloc_one() and
pXd_free_one() for intermediate levels of page table. These patches add
generic versions of these functions in <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> and enable
use of the generic functions where appropriate.
In addition, functions declared and defined in <asm/pgalloc.h> headers are
used mostly by core mm and early mm initialization in arch and there is no
actual reason to have the <asm/pgalloc.h> included all over the place.
The first patch in this series removes unneeded includes of
<asm/pgalloc.h>
In the end it didn't work out as neatly as I hoped and moving
pXd_alloc_track() definitions to <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> would require
unnecessary changes to arches that have custom page table allocations, so
I've decided to move lib/ioremap.c to mm/ and make pgalloc-track.h local
to mm/.
This patch (of 8):
In most cases <asm/pgalloc.h> header is required only for allocations of
page table memory. Most of the .c files that include that header do not
use symbols declared in <asm/pgalloc.h> and do not require that header.
As for the other header files that used to include <asm/pgalloc.h>, it is
possible to move that include into the .c file that actually uses symbols
from <asm/pgalloc.h> and drop the include from the header file.
The process was somewhat automated using
sed -i -E '/[<"]asm\/pgalloc\.h/d' \
$(grep -L -w -f /tmp/xx \
$(git grep -E -l '[<"]asm/pgalloc\.h'))
where /tmp/xx contains all the symbols defined in
arch/*/include/asm/pgalloc.h.

When workload runs in cgroups that aren't directly below root cgroup and
their parent specifies reclaim protection, it may end up ineffective.
The reason is that propagate_protected_usage() is not called in all
hierarchy up. All the protected usage is incorrectly accumulated in the
workload's parent. This means that siblings_low_usage is overestimated
and effective protection underestimated. Even though it is transitional
phenomenon (uncharge path does correct propagation and fixes the wrong
children_low_usage), it can undermine the intended protection
unexpectedly.
We have noticed this problem while seeing a swap out in a descendant of a
protected memcg (intermediate node) while the parent was conveniently
under its protection limit and the memory pressure was external to that
hierarchy. Michal has pinpointed this down to the wrong
siblings_low_usage which led to the unwanted reclaim.
The fix is simply updating children_low_usage in respective ancestors also
in the charging path.

When an outside process lowers one of the memory limits of a cgroup (or
uses the force_empty knob in cgroup1), direct reclaim is performed in the
context of the write(), in order to directly enforce the new limit and
have it being met by the time the write() returns.
Currently, this reclaim activity is accounted as memory pressure in the
cgroup that the writer(!) belongs to. This is unexpected. It
specifically causes problems for senpai
(https://github.com/facebookincubator/senpai), which is an agent that
routinely adjusts the memory limits and performs associated reclaim work
in tens or even hundreds of cgroups running on the host. The cgroup that
senpai is running in itself will report elevated levels of memory
pressure, even though it itself is under no memory shortage or any sort of
distress.
Move the psi annotation from the central cgroup reclaim function to
callsites in the allocation context, and thereby no longer count any
limit-setting reclaim as memory pressure. If the newly set limit causes
the workload inside the cgroup into direct reclaim, that of course will
continue to count as memory pressure.

Commit 8c8c383c04f6 ("mm: memcontrol: try harder to set a new
memory.high") inadvertently removed a callback to recalculate the
writeback cache size in light of a newly configured memory.high limit.
Without letting the writeback cache know about a potentially heavily
reduced limit, it may permit too many dirty pages, which can cause
unnecessary reclaim latencies or even avoidable OOM situations.
This was spotted while reading the code, it hasn't knowingly caused any
problems in practice so far.

Memcg oom killer invocation is synchronized by the global oom_lock and
tasks are sleeping on the lock while somebody is selecting the victim or
potentially race with the oom_reaper is releasing the victim's memory.
This can result in a pointless oom killer invocation because a waiter
might be racing with the oom_reaper
P1 oom_reaper P2
oom_reap_task mutex_lock(oom_lock)
out_of_memory # no victim because we have one already
__oom_reap_task_mm mute_unlock(oom_lock)
mutex_lock(oom_lock)
set MMF_OOM_SKIP
select_bad_process
# finds a new victim
The page allocator prevents from this race by trying to allocate after the
lock can be acquired (in __alloc_pages_may_oom) which acts as a last
minute check. Moreover page allocator simply doesn't block on the
oom_lock and simply retries the whole reclaim process.
Memcg oom killer should do the last minute check as well. Call
mem_cgroup_margin to do that. Trylock on the oom_lock could be done as
well but this doesn't seem to be necessary at this stage.

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.

Patch series "mm, memcg: memory.{low,min} reclaim fix & cleanup", v4.
This series contains a fix for a edge case in my earlier protection
calculation patches, and a patch to make the area overall a little more
robust to hopefully help avoid this in future.
This patch (of 2):
A cgroup can have both memory protection and a memory limit to isolate it
from its siblings in both directions - for example, to prevent it from
being shrunk below 2G under high pressure from outside, but also from
growing beyond 4G under low pressure.
Commit 9783aa9917f8 ("mm, memcg: proportional memory.{low,min} reclaim")
implemented proportional scan pressure so that multiple siblings in excess
of their protection settings don't get reclaimed equally but instead in
accordance to their unprotected portion.
During limit reclaim, this proportionality shouldn't apply of course:
there is no competition, all pressure is from within the cgroup and should
be applied as such. Reclaim should operate at full efficiency.
However, mem_cgroup_protected() never expected anybody to look at the
effective protection values when it indicated that the cgroup is above its
protection. As a result, a query during limit reclaim may return stale
protection values that were calculated by a previous reclaim cycle in
which the cgroup did have siblings.
When this happens, reclaim is unnecessarily hesitant and potentially slow
to meet the desired limit. In theory this could lead to premature OOM
kills, although it's not obvious this has occurred in practice.
Workaround the problem by special casing reclaim roots in
mem_cgroup_protection. These memcgs are never participating in the
reclaim protection because the reclaim is internal.
We have to ignore effective protection values for reclaim roots because
mem_cgroup_protected might be called from racing reclaim contexts with
different roots. Calculation is relying on root -> leaf tree traversal
therefore top-down reclaim protection invariants should hold. The only
exception is the reclaim root which should have effective protection set
to 0 but that would be problematic for the following setup:
Let's have global and A's reclaim in parallel:
|
A (low=2G, usage = 3G, max = 3G, children_low_usage = 1.5G)
|\
| C (low = 1G, usage = 2.5G)
B (low = 1G, usage = 0.5G)
for A reclaim we have
B.elow = B.low
C.elow = C.low
For the global reclaim
A.elow = A.low
B.elow = min(B.usage, B.low) because children_low_usage <= A.elow
C.elow = min(C.usage, C.low)
With the effective values resetting we have A reclaim
A.elow = 0
B.elow = B.low
C.elow = C.low
and global reclaim could see the above and then
B.elow = C.elow = 0 because children_low_usage > A.elow
Which means that protected memcgs would get reclaimed.
In future we would like to make mem_cgroup_protected more robust against
racing reclaim contexts but that is likely more complex solution than this
simple workaround.

commit 66e1707bc346 ("Memory controller: add per cgroup LRU and
reclaim"). However, we now have a generally agreed-upon standard for
page reclaim: MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES (currently 16), added many years later
in commit 0a0337e0d1d1 ("mm, oom: rework oom detection").
In the absence of a compelling reason to declare an OOM earlier in memcg
context than page allocator context, it seems reasonable to supplant
MEM_CGROUP_RECLAIM_RETRIES with MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES, making the page
allocator and memcg internals more similar in semantics when reclaim
fails to produce results, avoiding premature OOMs or throttling.

Patch series "mm, memcg: reclaim harder before high throttling", v2.
This patch (of 2):
In Facebook production, we've seen cases where cgroups have been put into
allocator throttling even when they appear to have a lot of slack file
caches which should be trivially reclaimable.
Looking more closely, the problem is that we only try a single cgroup
reclaim walk for each return to usermode before calculating whether or not
we should throttle. This single attempt doesn't produce enough pressure
to shrink for cgroups with a rapidly growing amount of file caches prior
to entering allocator throttling.
As an example, we see that threads in an affected cgroup are stuck in
allocator throttling:
# for i in $(cat cgroup.threads); do
> grep over_high "/proc/$i/stack"
> done
[<0>] mem_cgroup_handle_over_high+0x10b/0x150
[<0>] mem_cgroup_handle_over_high+0x10b/0x150
[<0>] mem_cgroup_handle_over_high+0x10b/0x150
...however, there is no I/O pressure reported by PSI, despite a lot of
slack file pages:
# cat memory.pressure
some avg10=78.50 avg60=84.99 avg300=84.53 total=5702440903
full avg10=78.50 avg60=84.99 avg300=84.53 total=5702116959
# cat io.pressure
some avg10=0.00 avg60=0.00 avg300=0.00 total=78051391
full avg10=0.00 avg60=0.00 avg300=0.00 total=78049640
# grep _file memory.stat
inactive_file 1370939392
active_file 661635072
This patch changes the behaviour to retry reclaim either until the current
task goes below the 10ms grace period, or we are making no reclaim
progress at all. In the latter case, we enter reclaim throttling as
before.
To a user, there's no intuitive reason for the reclaim behaviour to differ
from hitting memory.high as part of a new allocation, as opposed to
hitting memory.high because someone lowered its value. As such this also
brings an added benefit: it unifies the reclaim behaviour between the two.
There's precedent for this behaviour: we already do reclaim retries when
writing to memory.{high,max}, in max reclaim, and in the page allocator
itself.

Memory.high limit is implemented in a way such that the kernel penalizes
all threads which are allocating a memory over the limit. Forcing all
threads into the synchronous reclaim and adding some artificial delays
allows to slow down the memory consumption and potentially give some time
for userspace oom handlers/resource control agents to react.
It works nicely if the memory usage is hitting the limit from below,
however it works sub-optimal if a user adjusts memory.high to a value way
below the current memory usage. It basically forces all workload threads
(doing any memory allocations) into the synchronous reclaim and sleep.
This makes the workload completely unresponsive for a long period of time
and can also lead to a system-wide contention on lru locks. It can happen
even if the workload is not actually tight on memory and has, for example,
a ton of cold pagecache.
In the current implementation writing to memory.high causes an atomic
update of page counter's high value followed by an attempt to reclaim
enough memory to fit into the new limit. To fix the problem described
above, all we need is to change the order of execution: try to push the
memory usage under the limit first, and only then set the new high limit.

Currently memcg_kmem_enabled() is optimized for the kernel memory
accounting being off. It was so for a long time, and arguably the reason
behind was that the kernel memory accounting was initially an opt-in
feature. However, now it's on by default on both cgroup v1 and cgroup v2,
and it's on for all cgroups. So let's switch over to
static_branch_likely() to reflect this fact.
Unlikely there is a significant performance difference, as the cost of a
memory allocation and its accounting significantly exceeds the cost of a
jump. However, the conversion makes the code look more logically.

Currently the kernel stack is being accounted per-zone. There is no need
to do that. In addition due to being per-zone, memcg has to keep a
separate MEMCG_KERNEL_STACK_KB. Make the stat per-node and deprecate
MEMCG_KERNEL_STACK_KB as memcg_stat_item is an extension of
node_stat_item. In addition localize the kernel stack stats updates to
account_kernel_stack().

Add some tests to cover the kernel memory accounting functionality. These
are covering some issues (and changes) we had recently.
1) A test which allocates a lot of negative dentries, checks memcg slab
statistics, creates memory pressure by setting memory.max to some low
value and checks that some number of slabs was reclaimed.
2) A test which covers side effects of memcg destruction: it creates
and destroys a large number of sub-cgroups, each containing a
multi-threaded workload which allocates and releases some kernel
memory. Then it checks that the charge ans memory.stats do add up on
the parent level.
3) A test which reads /proc/kpagecgroup and implicitly checks that it
doesn't crash the system.
4) A test which spawns a large number of threads and checks that the
kernel stacks accounting works as expected.
5) A test which checks that living charged slab objects are not
preventing the memory cgroup from being released after being deleted by
a user.

Instead of having two sets of kmem_caches: one for system-wide and
non-accounted allocations and the second one shared by all accounted
allocations, we can use just one.
The idea is simple: space for obj_cgroup metadata can be allocated on
demand and filled only for accounted allocations.
It allows to remove a bunch of code which is required to handle kmem_cache
clones for accounted allocations. There is no more need to create them,
accumulate statistics, propagate attributes, etc. It's a quite
significant simplification.
Also, because the total number of slab_caches is reduced almost twice (not
all kmem_caches have a memcg clone), some additional memory savings are
expected. On my devvm it additionally saves about 3.5% of slab memory.

Currently there are two lists of kmem_caches:
1) slab_caches, which contains all kmem_caches,
2) slab_root_caches, which contains only root kmem_caches.
And there is some preprocessor magic to have a single list if
CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM isn't enabled.
It was required earlier because the number of non-root kmem_caches was
proportional to the number of memory cgroups and could reach really big
values. Now, when it cannot exceed the number of root kmem_caches, there
is really no reason to maintain two lists.
We never iterate over the slab_root_caches list on any hot paths, so it's
perfectly fine to iterate over slab_caches and filter out non-root
kmem_caches.
It allows to remove a lot of config-dependent code and two pointers from
the kmem_cache structure.

Because the number of non-root kmem_caches doesn't depend on the number of
memory cgroups anymore and is generally not very big, there is no more
need for a dedicated workqueue.
Also, as there is no more need to pass any arguments to the
memcg_create_kmem_cache() except the root kmem_cache, it's possible to
just embed the work structure into the kmem_cache and avoid the dynamic
allocation of the work structure.
This will also simplify the synchronization: for each root kmem_cache
there is only one work. So there will be no more concurrent attempts to
create a non-root kmem_cache for a root kmem_cache: the second and all
following attempts to queue the work will fail.
On the kmem_cache destruction path there is no more need to call the
expensive flush_workqueue() and wait for all pending works to be finished.
Instead, cancel_work_sync() can be used to cancel/wait for only one work.

This is fairly big but mostly red patch, which makes all accounted slab
allocations use a single set of kmem_caches instead of creating a separate
set for each memory cgroup.
Because the number of non-root kmem_caches is now capped by the number of
root kmem_caches, there is no need to shrink or destroy them prematurely.
They can be perfectly destroyed together with their root counterparts.
This allows to dramatically simplify the management of non-root
kmem_caches and delete a ton of code.
This patch performs the following changes:
1) introduces memcg_params.memcg_cache pointer to represent the
kmem_cache which will be used for all non-root allocations
2) reuses the existing memcg kmem_cache creation mechanism
to create memcg kmem_cache on the first allocation attempt
3) memcg kmem_caches are named <kmemcache_name>-memcg,
e.g. dentry-memcg
4) simplifies memcg_kmem_get_cache() to just return memcg kmem_cache
or schedule it's creation and return the root cache
5) removes almost all non-root kmem_cache management code
(separate refcounter, reparenting, shrinking, etc)
6) makes slab debugfs to display root_mem_cgroup css id and never
show :dead and :deact flags in the memcg_slabinfo attribute.
Following patches in the series will simplify the kmem_cache creation.

Deprecate memory.kmem.slabinfo.
An empty file will be presented if corresponding config options are
enabled.
The interface is implementation dependent, isn't present in cgroup v2, and
is generally useful only for core mm debugging purposes. In other words,
it doesn't provide any value for the absolute majority of users.
A drgn-based replacement can be found in
tools/cgroup/memcg_slabinfo.py. It does support cgroup v1 and v2,
mimics memory.kmem.slabinfo output and also allows to get any
additional information without a need to recompile the kernel.
If a drgn-based solution is too slow for a task, a bpf-based tracing tool
can be used, which can easily keep track of all slab allocations belonging
to a memory cgroup.
