Maybe we should add mem_cgroup_tryget_from_id(). The other caller of mem_cgroup_from_id() in vmscan is already doing the same and could use mem_cgroup_tryget_from_id(). Though this can be done separately to this series (if we decide to do it at all).

Nothing else in there is protected by RCU. We can just hold the ref instead. > Though this can be done separately to this series (if we decide to do > it at all). Agreed

I think different callers of mem_cgroup_from_id() want different things. (a) workingset_refault() reads the memcg from the id and doesn't really care if the memcg is online or not. (b) __mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap() reads the memcg from the id and drops refs acquired on the swapout path. It doesn't need tryget as we should know for a fact that we are holding refs from the swapout path. It doesn't care if the memcg is online or not. (c) mem_cgroup_swapin_charge_folio() reads the memcg from the id and then gets a ref with css_tryget_online() -- so only if the refcount is non-zero and the memcg is online. So we would at least need mem_cgroup_tryget_from_id() and mem_cgroup_tryget_online_from_id() to eliminate all direct calls of mem_cgroup_from_id(). I am hesitant about (b) because if we use mem_cgroup_tryget_from_id() the code will be getting a ref, then dropping the ref we have been carrying from swapout, then dropping the ref we just acquired.

In workingset_refault(), we call mem_cgroup_flush_stats_ratelimited() to flush stats within an RCU read section and with sleeping disallowed. Move the call to mem_cgroup_flush_stats_ratelimited() above the RCU read section and allow sleeping to avoid unnecessarily performing a lot of work without sleeping. Since workingset_refault() is the only caller of mem_cgroup_flush_stats_ratelimited(), just make it call the non-atomic mem_cgroup_flush_stats().
