Subject: fs: fsnotify: account fsnotify metadata to kmemcg
Patch series "Directed kmem charging", v8.
The Linux kernel's memory cgroup allows limiting the memory usage of the
jobs running on the system to provide isolation between the jobs. All the
kernel memory allocated in the context of the job and marked with
__GFP_ACCOUNT will also be included in the memory usage and be limited by
the job's limit.
The kernel memory can only be charged to the memcg of the process in whose
context kernel memory was allocated. However there are cases where the
allocated kernel memory should be charged to the memcg different from the
current processes's memcg. This patch series contains two such concrete
use-cases i.e. fsnotify and buffer_head.
The fsnotify event objects can consume a lot of system memory for large or
unlimited queues if there is either no or slow listener. The events are
allocated in the context of the event producer. However they should be
charged to the event consumer. Similarly the buffer_head objects can be
allocated in a memcg different from the memcg of the page for which
buffer_head objects are being allocated.
To solve this issue, this patch series introduces mechanism to charge
kernel memory to a given memcg. In case of fsnotify events, the memcg of
the consumer can be used for charging and for buffer_head, the memcg of
the page can be charged. For directed charging, the caller can use the
scope API memalloc_[un]use_memcg() to specify the memcg to charge for all
the __GFP_ACCOUNT allocations within the scope.
This patch (of 2):
A lot of memory can be consumed by the events generated for the huge or
unlimited queues if there is either no or slow listener. This can cause
system level memory pressure or OOMs. So, it's better to account the
fsnotify kmem caches to the memcg of the listener.
However the listener can be in a different memcg than the memcg of the
producer and these allocations happen in the context of the event
producer. This patch introduces remote memcg charging API which the
producer can use to charge the allocations to the memcg of the listener.
There are seven fsnotify kmem caches and among them allocations from
dnotify_struct_cache, dnotify_mark_cache, fanotify_mark_cache and
inotify_inode_mark_cachep happens in the context of syscall from the
listener. So, SLAB_ACCOUNT is enough for these caches.
The objects from fsnotify_mark_connector_cachep are not accounted as they
are small compared to the notification mark or events and it is unclear
whom to account connector to since it is shared by all events attached to
the inode.
The allocations from the event caches happen in the context of the event
producer. For such caches we will need to remote charge the allocations
to the listener's memcg. Thus we save the memcg reference in the
fsnotify_group structure of the listener.
This patch has also moved the members of fsnotify_group to keep the size
same, at least for 64 bit build, even with additional member by filling
the holes.
[shakeelb@xxxxxxxxxx: use GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT rather than open-coding it]
