2009-06-18memcg: fix lru rotation in isolate_pagesKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Try to fix memcg's lru rotation sanity: make memcg use the same logic as the global LRU does. Now, at __isolate_lru_page() retruns -EBUSY, the page is rotated to the tail of LRU in global LRU's isolate LRU pages. But in memcg, it's not handled. This makes memcg do the same behavior as global LRU and rotate LRU in the page is busy.

2009-06-18memcg: fix behavior under memory.limit equals to memsw.limitKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
A user can set memcg.limit_in_bytes == memcg.memsw.limit_in_bytes when the user just want to limit the total size of applications, in other words, not very interested in memory usage itself. In this case, swap-out will be done only by global-LRU. But, under current implementation, memory.limit_in_bytes is checked at first and try_to_free_page() may do swap-out. But, that swap-out is useless for memsw.limit_in_bytes and the thread may hit limit again. This patch tries to fix the current behavior at memory.limit == memsw.limit case. And documentation is updated to explain the behavior of this special case.

2009-06-18memcg: fix swap accountingKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
This patch fixes mis-accounting of swap usage in memcg. In the current implementation, memcg's swap account is uncharged only when swap is completely freed. But there are several cases where swap cannot be freed cleanly. For handling that, this patch changes that memcg uncharges swap account when swap has no references other than cache. By this, memcg's swap entry accounting can be fully synchronous with the application's behavior. This patch also changes memcg's hooks for swap-out.

2009-06-18memcg: add file-based RSS accountingBalbir Singh
Add file RSS tracking per memory cgroup We currently don't track file RSS, the RSS we report is actually anon RSS. All the file mapped pages, come in through the page cache and get accounted there. This patch adds support for accounting file RSS pages. It should 1. Help improve the metrics reported by the memory resource controller 2. Will form the basis for a future shared memory accounting heuristic that has been proposed by Kamezawa. Unfortunately, we cannot rename the existing "rss" keyword used in memory.stat to "anon_rss". We however, add "mapped_file" data and hope to educate the end user through documentation.

2009-06-16vmscan: evict use-once pages firstRik van Riel
When the file LRU lists are dominated by streaming IO pages, evict those pages first, before considering evicting other pages. This should be safe from deadlocks or performance problems because only three things can happen to an inactive file page: 1) referenced twice and promoted to the active list 2) evicted by the pageout code 3) under IO, after which it will get evicted or promoted The pages freed in this way can either be reused for streaming IO, or allocated for something else. If the pages are used for streaming IO, this pageout pattern continues. Otherwise, we will fall back to the normal pageout pattern.

2009-05-02memcg: fix mem_cgroup_shrink_usage()Daisuke Nishimura
Current mem_cgroup_shrink_usage() has two problems. 1. It doesn't call mem_cgroup_out_of_memory and doesn't update last_oom_jiffies, so pagefault_out_of_memory invokes global OOM. 2. Considering hierarchy, shrinking has to be done from the mem_over_limit, not from the memcg which the page would be charged to. mem_cgroup_try_charge_swapin() does all of these things properly, so we use it and call cancel_charge_swapin when it succeeded. The name of "shrink_usage" is not appropriate for this behavior, so we change it too.

2009-04-02cgroups: use css id in swap cgroup for saving memory v5KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Try to use CSS ID for records in swap_cgroup. By this, on 64bit machine, size of swap_cgroup goes down to 2 bytes from 8bytes. This means, when 2GB of swap is equipped, (assume the page size is 4096bytes) From size of swap_cgroup = 2G/4k * 8 = 4Mbytes. To size of swap_cgroup = 2G/4k * 2 = 1Mbytes. Reduction is large. Of course, there are trade-offs. This CSS ID will add overhead to swap-in/swap-out/swap-free. But in general, - swap is a resource which the user tend to avoid use. - If swap is never used, swap_cgroup area is not used. - Reading traditional manuals, size of swap should be proportional to size of memory. Memory size of machine is increasing now. I think reducing size of swap_cgroup makes sense. Note: - ID->CSS lookup routine has no locks, it's under RCU-Read-Side. - memcg can be obsolete at rmdir() but not freed while refcnt from swap_cgroup is available. Changelog v4->v5: - reworked on to memcg-charge-swapcache-to-proper-memcg.patch Changlog ->v4: - fixed not configured case. - deleted unnecessary comments. - fixed NULL pointer bug. - fixed message in dmesg.

2009-04-02memcg: charge swapcache to proper memcgDaisuke Nishimura
memcg_test.txt says at 4.1: This swap-in is one of the most complicated work. In do_swap_page(), following events occur when pte is unchanged. (1) the page (SwapCache) is looked up. (2) lock_page() (3) try_charge_swapin() (4) reuse_swap_page() (may call delete_swap_cache()) (5) commit_charge_swapin() (6) swap_free(). Considering following situation for example. (A) The page has not been charged before (2) and reuse_swap_page() doesn't call delete_from_swap_cache(). (B) The page has not been charged before (2) and reuse_swap_page() calls delete_from_swap_cache(). (C) The page has been charged before (2) and reuse_swap_page() doesn't call delete_from_swap_cache(). (D) The page has been charged before (2) and reuse_swap_page() calls delete_from_swap_cache(). memory.usage/memsw.usage changes to this page/swp_entry will be Case (A) (B) (C) (D) Event Before (2) 0/ 1 0/ 1 1/ 1 1/ 1 =========================================== (3) +1/+1 +1/+1 +1/+1 +1/+1 (4) - 0/ 0 - -1/ 0 (5) 0/-1 0/ 0 -1/-1 0/ 0 (6) - 0/-1 - 0/-1 =========================================== Result 1/ 1 1/ 1 1/ 1 1/ 1 In any cases, charges to this page should be 1/ 1. In case of (D), mem_cgroup_try_get_from_swapcache() returns NULL (because lookup_swap_cgroup() returns NULL), so "+1/+1" at (3) means charges to the memcg("foo") to which the "current" belongs. OTOH, "-1/0" at (4) and "0/-1" at (6) means uncharges from the memcg("baa") to which the page has been charged. So, if the "foo" and "baa" is different(for example because of task move), this charge will be moved from "baa" to "foo". I think this is an unexpected behavior. This patch fixes this by modifying mem_cgroup_try_get_from_swapcache() to return the memcg to which the swapcache has been charged if PCG_USED bit is set. IIUC, checking PCG_USED bit of swapcache is safe under page lock.

2009-04-02memcg: fix OOM killer under memcgKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
This patch tries to fix OOM Killer problems caused by hierarchy. Now, memcg itself has OOM KILL function (in oom_kill.c) and tries to kill a task in memcg. But, when hierarchy is used, it's broken and correct task cannot be killed. For example, in following cgroup /groupA/ hierarchy=1, limit=1G, 01 nolimit 02 nolimit All tasks' memory usage under /groupA, /groupA/01, groupA/02 is limited to groupA's 1Gbytes but OOM Killer just kills tasks in groupA. This patch provides makes the bad process be selected from all tasks under hierarchy. BTW, currently, oom_jiffies is updated against groupA in above case. oom_jiffies of tree should be updated. To see how oom_jiffies is used, please check mem_cgroup_oom_called() callers.

2009-04-02memcg: fix shrinking memory to return -EBUSY by fixing retry algorithmKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
As pointed out, shrinking memcg's limit should return -EBUSY after reasonable retries. This patch tries to fix the current behavior of shrink_usage. Before looking into "shrink should return -EBUSY" problem, we should fix hierarchical reclaim code. It compares current usage and current limit, but it only makes sense when the kernel reclaims memory because hit limits. This is also a problem. What this patch does are. 1. add new argument "shrink" to hierarchical reclaim. If "shrink==true", hierarchical reclaim returns immediately and the caller checks the kernel should shrink more or not. (At shrinking memory, usage is always smaller than limit. So check for usage < limit is useless.) 2. For adjusting to above change, 2 changes in "shrink"'s retry path. 2-a. retry_count depends on # of children because the kernel visits the children under hierarchy one by one. 2-b. rather than checking return value of hierarchical_reclaim's progress, compares usage-before-shrink and usage-after-shrink. If usage-before-shrink <= usage-after-shrink, retry_count is decremented.

In following situation, with memory subsystem, /groupA use_hierarchy==1 /01 some tasks /02 some tasks /03 some tasks /04 empty When tasks under 01/02/03 hit limit on /groupA, hierarchical reclaim is triggered and the kernel walks tree under groupA. In this case, rmdir /groupA/04 fails with -EBUSY frequently because of temporal refcnt from the kernel. In general. cgroup can be rmdir'd if there are no children groups and no tasks. Frequent fails of rmdir() is not useful to users.

2009-01-15memcg: make oom less frequentlyDaisuke Nishimura
In previous implementation, mem_cgroup_try_charge checked the return value of mem_cgroup_try_to_free_pages, and just retried if some pages had been reclaimed. But now, try_charge(and mem_cgroup_hierarchical_reclaim called from it) only checks whether the usage is less than the limit.

2009-01-15memcg: fix hierarchical reclaimDaisuke Nishimura
If root_mem has no children, last_scaned_child is set to root_mem itself. But after some children added to root_mem, mem_cgroup_get_next_node can mem_cgroup_put the root_mem although root_mem has not been mem_cgroup_get. This patch fixes this behavior by: - Set last_scanned_child to NULL if root_mem has no children or DFS search has returned to root_mem itself(root_mem is not a "child" of root_mem). Make mem_cgroup_get_first_node return root_mem in this case. There are no mem_cgroup_get/put for root_mem. - Rename mem_cgroup_get_next_node to __mem_cgroup_get_next_node, and mem_cgroup_get_first_node to mem_cgroup_get_next_node. Make mem_cgroup_hierarchical_reclaim call only new mem_cgroup_get_next_node.

Now, you can see following even when swap accounting is enabled. 1. Create Group 01, and 02. 2. allocate a "file" on tmpfs by a task under 01. 3. swap out the "file" (by memory pressure) 4. Read "file" from a task in group 02. 5. the charge of "file" is moved to group 02. This is not ideal behavior. This is because SwapCache which was loaded by read-ahead is not taken into account.. This is a patch to fix shmem's swapcache behavior. - remove mem_cgroup_cache_charge_swapin(). - Add SwapCache handler routine to mem_cgroup_cache_charge(). By this, shmem's file cache is charged at add_to_page_cache() with GFP_NOWAIT. - pass the page of swapcache to shrink_mem_cgroup.

2009-01-08memcg: fix swap accounting leakKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Fix swapin charge operation of memcg. Now, memcg has hooks to swap-out operation and checks SwapCache is really unused or not. That check depends on contents of struct page. I.e. If PageAnon(page) && page_mapped(page), the page is recoginized as still-in-use. Now, reuse_swap_page() calles delete_from_swap_cache() before establishment of any rmap. Then, in followinig sequence (Page fault with WRITE) try_charge() (charge += PAGESIZE) commit_charge() (Check page_cgroup is used or not..) reuse_swap_page() -> delete_from_swapcache() -> mem_cgroup_uncharge_swapcache() (charge -= PAGESIZE) ...... New charge is uncharged soon.... To avoid this, move commit_charge() after page_mapcount() goes up to 1. By this, try_charge() (usage += PAGESIZE) reuse_swap_page() (may usage -= PAGESIZE if PCG_USED is set) commit_charge() (If page_cgroup is not marked as PCG_USED, add new charge.) Accounting will be correct. Changelog (v2) -> (v3) - fixed invalid charge to swp_entry==0. - updated documentation. Changelog (v1) -> (v2) - fixed comment.

2009-01-08memcg: avoid deadlock caused by race between oom and cpuset_attachDaisuke Nishimura
mpol_rebind_mm(), which can be called from cpuset_attach(), does down_write(mm->mmap_sem). This means down_write(mm->mmap_sem) can be called under cgroup_mutex. OTOH, page fault path does down_read(mm->mmap_sem) and calls mem_cgroup_try_charge_xxx(), which may eventually calls mem_cgroup_out_of_memory(). And mem_cgroup_out_of_memory() calls cgroup_lock(). This means cgroup_lock() can be called under down_read(mm->mmap_sem). If those two paths race, deadlock can happen. This patch avoid this deadlock by: - remove cgroup_lock() from mem_cgroup_out_of_memory(). - define new mutex (memcg_tasklist) and serialize mem_cgroup_move_task() (->attach handler of memory cgroup) and mem_cgroup_out_of_memory.

2009-01-08memcg: add inactive_anon_is_low()KOSAKI Motohiro
The inactive_anon_is_low() is key component of active/inactive anon balancing on reclaim. However current inactive_anon_is_low() function only consider global reclaim. Therefore, we need following ugly scan_global_lru() condition. if (lru == LRU_ACTIVE_ANON && (!scan_global_lru(sc) || inactive_anon_is_low(zone))) { shrink_active_list(nr_to_scan, zone, sc, priority, file); return 0; it cause that memcg reclaim always deactivate pages when shrink_list() is called. To make mem_cgroup_inactive_anon_is_low() improve active/inactive anon balancing of memcgroup.

2009-01-08memcg: add null check to page_cgroup_zoneinfo()KOSAKI Motohiro
If CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP=y, page_cgroup::mem_cgroup can be NULL. Therefore null checking is better. A later patch uses this function.
