Subject: mm: memcontrol: don't allocate cgroup swap arrays when memcg is disabled
Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2022 09:57:01 -0400
Patch series "memcg swap fix & cleanups".
This patch (of 4):
Since commit 2d1c498072de ("mm: memcontrol: make swap tracking an integral
part of memory control"), the cgroup swap arrays are used to track memory
ownership at the time of swap readahead and swapoff, even if swap space
*accounting* has been turned off by the user via swapaccount=0 (which sets
cgroup_memory_noswap).
However, the patch was overzealous: by simply dropping the
cgroup_memory_noswap conditionals in the swapon, swapoff and uncharge
path, it caused the cgroup arrays being allocated even when the memory
controller as a whole is disabled. This is a waste of that memory.
Restore mem_cgroup_disabled() checks, implied previously by
cgroup_memory_noswap, in the swapon, swapoff, and swap_entry_free
callbacks.
