Now, management of "charge" under page migration is done under following manner. (Assume migrate page contents from oldpage to newpage) before - "newpage" is charged before migration. at success. - "oldpage" is uncharged at somewhere(unmap, radix-tree-replace) at failure - "newpage" is uncharged. - "oldpage" is charged if necessary (*1) But (*1) is not reliable....because of GFP_ATOMIC. This patch tries to change behavior as following by charge/commit/cancel ops. before - charge PAGE_SIZE (no target page) success - commit charge against "newpage". failure - commit charge against "oldpage". (PCG_USED bit works effectively to avoid double-counting) - if "oldpage" is obsolete, cancel charge of PAGE_SIZE. Signed-off-by:KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by:

Fix misuse of gfp_kernel. Now, most of callers of mem_cgroup_charge_xxx functions uses GFP_KERNEL. I think that this is from the fact that page_cgroup *was* dynamically allocated. But now, we allocate all page_cgroup at boot. And mem_cgroup_try_to_free_pages() reclaim memory from GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE + specified GFP_RECLAIM_MASK. * This is because we just want to reduce memory usage. "Where we should reclaim from ?" is not a problem in memcg. This patch modifies gfp masks to be GFP_HIGUSER_MOVABLE if possible. Note: This patch is not for fixing behavior but for showing sane information in source code. Signed-off-by: -

There is a small race in do_swap_page(). When the page swapped-in is charged, the mapcount can be greater than 0. But, at the same time some process (shares it ) call unmap and make mapcount 1->0 and the page is uncharged. CPUA CPUB mapcount == 1. (1) charge if mapcount==0 zap_pte_range() (2) mapcount 1 => 0. (3) uncharge(). (success) (4) set page's rmap() mapcount 0=>1 Then, this swap page's account is leaked. For fixing this, I added a new interface. - charge account to res_counter by PAGE_SIZE and try to free pages if necessary. - commit register page_cgroup and add to LRU if necessary. - cancel uncharge PAGE_SIZE because of do_swap_page failure. CPUA (1) charge (always) (2) set page's rmap (mapcount > 0) (3) commit charge was necessary or not after set_pte(). This protocol uses PCG_USED bit on page_cgroup for avoiding over accounting. Usual mem_cgroup_charge_common() does charge -> commit at a time. And this patch also adds following function to clarify all charges. - mem_cgroup_newpage_charge() ....replacement for mem_cgroup_charge() called against newly allocated anon pages. - mem_cgroup_charge_migrate_fixup() called only from remove_migration_ptes(). we'll have to rewrite this later.(this patch just keeps old behavior) This function will be removed by additional patch to make migration clearer. Good for clarifying "what we do" Then, we have 4 following charge points. - newpage - swap-in - add-to-cache. - migration.

The devcgroup_inode_permission() hook in the devices whitelist cgroup has always bypassed access checks on fifos. But the mknod hook did not. The devices whitelist is only about block and char devices, and fifos can't even be added to the whitelist, so fifos can't be created at all except by tasks which have 'a' in their whitelist (meaning they have access to all devices). Fix the behavior by bypassing access checks to mkfifo. Signed-off-by:

Fix races between /proc/sched_debug by freeing cgroup objects via an RCU callback. Thus any cgroup reference obtained from an RCU-safe source will remain valid during the RCU section. Since dentries are also RCU-safe, this allows us to traverse up the tree safely. Additionally, make cgroup_path() check for a NULL cgrp->dentry to avoid trying to report a path for a partially-created cgroup.

Once tasks are populated from system namespace inside cgroup, container replaces other namespace task with 0 while listing tasks, inside container. Though this is expected behaviour from container end, there is no use of showing unwanted 0s. In this patch, we check if a process is in same namespace before loading into pid array.

Though for an inactive hierarchy, we have subsys->root == &rootnode, but rootnode's subsys_list is always empty. This conflicts with the code in find_css_set(): for (i = 0; i < CGROUP_SUBSYS_COUNT; i++) { ... if (ss->root->subsys_list.next == &ss->sibling) { ... } } if (list_empty(&rootnode.subsys_list)) { ... } The above code assumes rootnode.subsys_list links all inactive hierarchies.

cgroup_iter_* do not need rcu_read_lock(). In cgroup_enable_task_cg_lists(), do_each_thread() and while_each_thread() are protected by RCU, it's OK, for write_lock(&css_set_lock) implies rcu_read_lock() in non-RT kernel.

In cgroup_attach_task(), tsk maybe exit when we call find_css_set(). and find_css_set() will access to invalid css_set. This patch increases the count before get_css_set(), and decreases it after find_css_set(). NOTE: css_set's refcount is also taskcount, after this patch applied, taskcount may be off-by-one WHEN cgroup_lock() is not held. but I reviewed other code which use taskcount, they are still correct. No regression found by reviewing and simply testing. So I do not use two counters in css_set. (one counter for taskcount, the other for refcount. like struct mm_struct) If this fix cause regression, we will use two counters in css_set. Signed-off-by:

We don't access struct cgroupfs_root in fast path, so we should not put struct cgroupfs_root protected by RCU But the comment in struct cgroup_subsys.root confuse us. struct cgroup_subsys.root is used in these places: 1 find_css_set(): if (ss->root->subsys_list.next == &ss->sibling) 2 rebind_subsystems(): if (ss->root != &rootnode) rcu_assign_pointer(ss->root, root); rcu_assign_pointer(subsys[i]->root, &rootnode); 3 cgroup_has_css_refs(): if (ss->root != cgrp->root) 4 cgroup_init_subsys(): ss->root = &rootnode; 5 proc_cgroupstats_show(): ss->name, ss->root->subsys_bits, ss->root->number_of_cgroups, !ss->disabled); 6 cgroup_clone(): root = subsys->root; if ((root != subsys->root) || All these place we have held cgroup_lock() or we don't dereference to struct cgroupfs_root. It's means wo don't need RCU when use struct cgroup_subsys.root, and we should not put struct cgroupfs_root protected by RCU. Signed-off-by: -

We access res->cgroups without the task_lock(), so res->cgroups may be changed. it's unreliable, and "if (l == &res->cgroups->tasks)" may be false forever. We don't need add any lock for fixing this bug. we just access to struct css_set by struct cg_cgroup_link, not by struct task_struct. Since we hold css_set_lock, struct cg_cgroup_link is reliable.

As spotted by kmemtrace, struct ext3_sb_info is 17152 bytes on 64-bit which makes it a very bad fit for SLAB allocators. The culprit of the wasted memory is ->s_blockgroup_lock which can be as big as 16 KB when NR_CPUS >= 32. To fix that, allocate ->s_blockgroup_lock, which fits nicely in a order 2 page in the worst case, separately. This shinks down struct ext3_sb_info enough to fit a 1 KB slab cache so now we allocate 16 KB + 1 KB instead of 32 KB saving 15 KB of memory. Acked-by:

There is a flaw with the way jbd handles fsync batching. If we fsync() a file and we were not the last person to run fsync() on this fs then we automatically sleep for 1 jiffie in order to wait for new writers to join into the transaction before forcing the commit. The problem with this is that with really fast storage (ie a Clariion) the time it takes to commit a transaction to disk is way faster than 1 jiffie in most cases, so sleeping means waiting longer with nothing to do than if we just committed the transaction and kept going. Ric Wheeler noticed this when using fs_mark with more than 1 thread, the throughput would plummet as he added more threads. This patch attempts to fix this problem by recording the average time in nanoseconds that it takes to commit a transaction to disk, and what time we started the transaction. If we run an fsync() and we have been running for less time than it takes to commit the transaction to disk, we sleep for the delta amount of time and then commit to disk. We acheive sub-jiffie sleeping using schedule_hrtimeout. This means that the wait time is auto-tuned to the speed of the underlying disk, instead of having this static timeout. I weighted the average according to somebody's comments (Andreas Dilger I think) in order to help normalize random outliers where we take way longer or way less time to commit than the average. I also have a min() check in there to make sure we don't sleep longer than a jiffie in case our storage is super slow, this was requested by Andrew. I unfortunately do not have access to a Clariion, so I had to use a ramdisk to represent a super fast array. I tested with a SATA drive with barrier=1 to make sure there was no regression with local disks, I tested with a 4 way multipathed Apple Xserve RAID array and of course the ramdisk. I ran the following command fs_mark -d /mnt/ext3-test -s 4096 -n 2000 -D 64 -t $i where $i was 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32. I mkfs'ed the fs each time.
