Commit Message

PageKmemcg flag is currently defined as a page type (like buddy,
offline, table and guard). Semantically it means that the page
was accounted as a kernel memory by the page allocator and has
to be uncharged on the release.

As a side effect of defining the flag as a page type, the accounted
page can't be mapped to userspace (look at page_has_type() and
comments above). In particular, this blocks the accounting of
vmalloc-backed memory used by some bpf maps, because these maps
do map the memory to userspace.

One option is to fix it by complicating the access to page->mapcount,
which provides some free bits for page->page_type.

But it's way better to move this flag into page->memcg_data flags.
Indeed, the flag makes no sense without enabled memory cgroups
and memory cgroup pointer set in particular.

This commit replaces PageKmemcg() and __SetPageKmemcg() with
PageMemcgKmem() and an open-coded OR operation setting the memcg
pointer with the MEMCG_DATA_KMEM bit. __ClearPageKmemcg() can be
simple deleted, as the whole memcg_data is zeroed at once.

As a bonus, on !CONFIG_MEMCG build the PageMemcgKmem() check will
be compiled out.

Shouldn't this change go also into page_memcg_rcu()? (I don't think the
current single user (workingset_activation() would pass a non-slab
kernel page but for consistency sake.)

Alternatively, I'm thinking why (in its single use) is there
page_memcg_rcu() a separate function to page_memcg() (cross memcg page
migration?).

Regards,
Michal

It goes back to commit 55779ec759ccc3c12b917b3712a7716e1140c652.

The activation code is the only path where page migration is not
excluded. Because unlike with page state statistics, we don't really
mind a race when counting an activation event.

I do think there is a bug, though: mem_cgroup_move_account() should
use WRITE_ONCE() on page->mem_cgroup.

Yes, a good idea, I will add it.

Thanks!

Thanks for the explanation. I see why the accessor trio is justified.

If this were a bug, wouldn't be the proper approach
rcu_assign_pointer()/rcu_dereference() pair?

Yes, you're right.

I'll double check these code paths and follow up with a patch if
necessary.
