On our 40 CPU cores / 70GB DRAM machine, 15GB of available memory was reduced within 2 minutes while my artificial reproducer runs. The reproducer merely repeats 'unshare(CLONE_NEWNET)' in a loop for 50,000 times. The reproducer is not only artificial but resembles the behavior of our real workloads. While the reproducer runs, 'cleanup_net()' was called only 4 times. First two calls quickly finished, but third call took about 30 seconds, and the fourth call didn't finished until the reproducer finishes. We also confirmed the third and fourth calls just waiting for 'rcu_barrier()'. I think you've not seen this issue before because we are doing very intensive 'unshare()' calls. Also, this is not reproducible on every hardware. On my 6 CPU machine, the problem didn't reproduce. > > > > > Signed-off-by: SeongJae Park <sjpark@xxxxxxxxx> > > --- > > include/net/inet_frag.h | 2 +- > > net/ipv4/inet_fragment.c | 28 ++++++++++++++++++++-------- > > 2 files changed, 21 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) > > > > diff --git a/include/net/inet_frag.h b/include/net/inet_frag.h > > index bac79e817776..558893d8810c 100644 > > --- a/include/net/inet_frag.h > > +++ b/include/net/inet_frag.h > > @@ -20,7 +20,7 @@ struct fqdir { > > > > /* Keep atomic mem on separate cachelines in structs that include it */ > > atomic_long_t mem ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp; > > - struct work_struct destroy_work; > > + struct llist_node destroy_list; > > }; > > > > /** > > diff --git a/net/ipv4/inet_fragment.c b/net/ipv4/inet_fragment.c > > index 10d31733297d..796b559137c5 100644 > > --- a/net/ipv4/inet_fragment.c > > +++ b/net/ipv4/inet_fragment.c > > @@ -145,12 +145,19 @@ static void inet_frags_free_cb(void *ptr, void *arg) > > inet_frag_destroy(fq); > > } > > > > +static LLIST_HEAD(destroy_list); > > + > > static void fqdir_work_fn(struct work_struct *work) > > { > > - struct fqdir *fqdir = container_of(work, struct fqdir, destroy_work); > > - struct inet_frags *f = fqdir->f; > > + struct llist_node *kill_list; > > + struct fqdir *fqdir; > > + struct inet_frags *f; > > + > > + /* Atomically snapshot the list of fqdirs to destroy */ > > + kill_list = llist_del_all(&destroy_list); > > > > - rhashtable_free_and_destroy(&fqdir->rhashtable, inet_frags_free_cb, NULL); > > + llist_for_each_entry(fqdir, kill_list, destroy_list) > > + rhashtable_free_and_destroy(&fqdir->rhashtable, inet_frags_free_cb, NULL); > > > > > OK, it seems rhashtable_free_and_destroy() has cond_resched() so we are not going > to hold this cpu for long periods. > > > /* We need to make sure all ongoing call_rcu(..., inet_frag_destroy_rcu) > > * have completed, since they need to dereference fqdir. > > @@ -158,10 +165,13 @@ static void fqdir_work_fn(struct work_struct *work) > > */ > > rcu_barrier(); > > > > - if (refcount_dec_and_test(&f->refcnt)) > > - complete(&f->completion); > > + llist_for_each_entry(fqdir, kill_list, destroy_list) { > > Don't we need the llist_for_each_entry_safe() variant here ???
