Hi, this series aims to address the memcg related problem on PREEMPT_RT. I tested them on CONFIG_PREEMPT and CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT with the tools/testing/selftests/cgroup/* tests and I haven't observed any regressions (other than the lockdep report that is already there). Changes since v1: - Made a full patch from Michal Hocko's diff to disable the from-IRQ vs from-task optimisation - Disabling threshold event handlers is using now IS_ENABLED(PREEMPT_RT) instead of #ifdef. The outcome is the same but there is no need to shuffle the code around. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220125164337.2071854-1-bigeasy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Changes since the RFC: - cgroup.event_control / memory.soft_limit_in_bytes is disabled on PREEMPT_RT. It is a deprecated v1 feature. Fixing the signal path is not worth it. - The updates to per-CPU counters are usually synchronised by disabling interrupts. There are a few spots where assumption about disabled interrupts are not true on PREEMPT_RT and therefore preemption is disabled. This is okay since the counter are never written from in_irq() context. RFC: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211222114111.2206248-1-bigeasy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Sebastian
