mremap will account the delta between new_len and old_len in
vma_to_resize, and then call move_vma when expanding an existing memory
mapping. In function move_vma, there are two scenarios when calling
do_munmap:
1. move_page_tables from old_addr to new_addr success
2. move_page_tables from old_addr to new_addr fail
In first scenario, it should account old_len if do_munmap fail, because
the delta has already been accounted.
In second scenario, new_addr/new_len will assign to old_addr/old_len if
move_page_table fail, so do_munmap is try to unmap new_addr actually, if
do_munmap fail, it should account the new_len, because error code will be
return from move_vma, and delta will be unaccounted. What'more, because
of new_len == old_len, so account old_len also is OK.
In summary, account old_len will be correct if do_munmap fail.

There are several test cases in the vm directory are still using exit 0
when they need to be skipped. Use the kselftest framework to skip code
instead so it can help us to distinguish the return status.
Criterion to filter out what should be fixed in vm directory:
grep -r "exit 0" -B1 | grep -i skip
This change might cause some false-positives if people are running these
test scripts directly and only checking their return codes, which will
change from 0 to 4. However I think the impact should be small as most of
our scripts here are already using this skip code. And there will be no
such issue if running them with the kselftest framework.

The memcg->event_list_lock is usually taken in the normal context but when
the userspace closes the corresponding eventfd, eventfd_release through
memcg_event_wake takes memcg->event_list_lock with interrupts disabled.
This is not an issue on its own but it creates a nested dependency from
eventfd_ctx->wqh.lock to memcg->event_list_lock.
Independently, for unrelated eventfd, eventfd_signal() can be called in
the irq context, thus making eventfd_ctx->wqh.lock an irq lock. For
example, FPGA DFL driver, VHOST VPDA driver and couple of VFIO drivers.
This will force memcg->event_list_lock to be an irqsafe lock as well.
One way to break the nested dependency between eventfd_ctx->wqh.lock and
memcg->event_list_lock is to add an indirection. However the simplest
solution would be to make memcg->event_list_lock irqsafe. This is cgroup
v1 feature, is in maintenance and may get deprecated in near future. So,
no need to add more code.
BTW this has been discussed previously [1] but there weren't irq users of
eventfd_signal() at the time.

Patch series "memcg accounting from OpenVZ", v7.
OpenVZ uses memory accounting 20+ years since v2.2.x linux kernels.
Initially we used our own accounting subsystem, then partially committed
it to upstream, and a few years ago switched to cgroups v1. Now we're
rebasing again, revising our old patches and trying to push them upstream.
We try to protect the host system from any misuse of kernel memory
allocation triggered by untrusted users inside the containers.
Patch-set is addressed mostly to cgroups maintainers and cgroups@ mailing
list, though I would be very grateful for any comments from maintainersi
of affected subsystems or other people added in cc:
Compared to the upstream, we additionally account the following kernel objects:
- network devices and its Tx/Rx queues
- ipv4/v6 addresses and routing-related objects
- inet_bind_bucket cache objects
- VLAN group arrays
- ipv6/sit: ip_tunnel_prl
- scm_fp_list objects used by SCM_RIGHTS messages of Unix sockets
- nsproxy and namespace objects itself
- IPC objects: semaphores, message queues and share memory segments
- mounts
- pollfd and select bits arrays
- signals and posix timers
- file lock
- fasync_struct used by the file lease code and driver's fasync queues
- tty objects
- per-mm LDT
We have an incorrect/incomplete/obsoleted accounting for few other kernel
objects: sk_filter, af_packets, netlink and xt_counters for iptables.
They require rework and probably will be dropped at all.
Also we're going to add an accounting for nft, however it is not ready
yet.
We have not tested performance on upstream, however, our performance team
compares our current RHEL7-based production kernel and reports that they
are at least not worse as the according original RHEL7 kernel.
This patch (of 10):
The kernel allocates ~400 bytes of 'struct mount' for any new mount.
Creating a new mount namespace clones most of the parent mounts, and this
can be repeated many times. Additionally, each mount allocates up to
PATH_MAX=4096 bytes for mnt->mnt_devname.
It makes sense to account for these allocations to restrict the host's
memory consumption from inside the memcg-limited container.

This patch adds accounting flags to fs_context and legacy_fs_context
allocation sites so that kernel could correctly charge these objects.
We have written a PoC to demonstrate the effect of the missing-charging
bugs. The PoC takes around 1,200MB unaccounted memory, while it is
charged for only 362MB memory usage. We evaluate the PoC on QEMU x86_64
v5.2.90 + Linux kernel v5.10.19 + Debian buster. All the limitations
including ulimits and sysctl variables are set as default. Specifically,
the hard NOFILE limit and nr_open in sysctl are both 1,048,576.

At the moment memcg stats are read in four contexts:
1. memcg stat user interfaces
2. dirty throttling
3. page fault
4. memory reclaim
Currently the kernel flushes the stats for first two cases. Flushing the
stats for remaining two casese may have performance impact. Always
flushing the memcg stats on the page fault code path may negatively
impacts the performance of the applications. In addition flushing in the
memory reclaim code path, though treated as slowpath, can become the
source of contention for the global lock taken for stat flushing because
when system or memcg is under memory pressure, many tasks may enter the
reclaim path.
This patch uses following mechanisms to solve these challenges:
1. Periodically flush the stats from root memcg every 2 seconds. This
will time limit the out of sync stats.
2. Asynchronously flush the stats after fixed number of stat updates.
In the worst case the stat can be out of sync by O(nr_cpus * BATCH) for
2 seconds.
3. For avoiding thundering herd to flush the stats particularly from
the memory reclaim context, introduce memcg local spinlock and let only
one flusher active at a time. This could have been done through
cgroup_rstat_lock lock but that lock is used by other subsystem and for
userspace reading memcg stats. So, it is better to keep flushers
introduced by this patch decoupled from cgroup_rstat_lock. However we
would have to use irqsafe version of rstat flush but that is fine as
this code path will be flushing for whole tree and do the work for
everyone. No one will be waiting for that worker.

The commit 2d146aa3aa ("mm: memcontrol: switch to rstat") switched memcg
stats to rstat infrastructure but skipped the conversion of the lruvec
stats as such stats are read in the performance critical code paths and
flushing stats may have impacted the performances of the applications.
This patch converts the lruvec stats to rstat and later patches add
mechanisms to keep the performance impact to minimum.
The rstat conversion comes with the price i.e. memory cost. Effectively
this patch reverts the savings done by the commit f3344adf38 ("mm:
memcontrol: optimize per-lruvec stats counter memory usage"). However
this cost is justified due to negative impact of the inaccurate lruvec
stats on many heuristics. One such case is reported in [1].
The memory reclaim code is filled with plethora of heuristics and many of
those heuristics reads the lruvec stats. So, inaccurate stats can make
such heuristics ineffective. [1] reports the impact of inaccurate lruvec
stats on the "cache trim mode" heuristic. Inaccurate lruvec stats can
impact the deactivation and aging anon heuristics as well.

Commit 5d097056c9 ("kmemcg: account certain kmem allocations to memcg")
enabled memcg accounting for pids allocated from init_pid_ns.pid_cachep,
but forgot to adjust the setting for nested pid namespaces. As a result,
pid memory is not accounted exactly where it is really needed, inside
memcg-limited containers with their own pid namespaces.
Pid was one the first kernel objects enabled for memcg accounting.
init_pid_ns.pid_cachep marked by SLAB_ACCOUNT and we can expect that any
new pids in the system are memcg-accounted.
Though recently I've noticed that it is wrong. nested pid namespaces
creates own slab caches for pid objects, nested pids have increased size
because contain id both for all parent and for own pid namespaces. The
problem is that these slab caches are _NOT_ marked by SLAB_ACCOUNT, as a
result any pids allocated in nested pid namespaces are not
memcg-accounted.
Pid struct in nested pid namespace consumes up to 500 bytes memory, 100000
such objects gives us up to ~50Mb unaccounted memory, this allow container
to exceed assigned memcg limits.

Extend shmem_huge_enabled(vma) to shmem_is_huge(vma, inode, index), so
that a consistent set of checks can be applied, even when the inode is
accessed through read/write syscalls (with NULL vma) instead of mmaps (the
index argument is seldom of interest, but required by mount option
"huge=within_size"). Clean up and rearrange the checks a little.
This then replaces the checks which shmem_fault() and shmem_getpage_gfp()
were making, and eliminates the SGP_HUGE and SGP_NOHUGE modes.
Replace a couple of 0s by explicit SHMEM_HUGE_NEVERs; and replace the
obscure !shmem_mapping() symlink check by explicit S_ISLNK() - nothing
else needs that symlink check, so leave it there in shmem_getpage_gfp().

khugepaged's collapse_file() currently uses SGP_NOHUGE to tell
shmem_getpage() not to try allocating a huge page, in the very unlikely
event that a racing hole-punch removes the swapped or fallocated page as
soon as i_pages lock is dropped.
We want to consolidate shmem's huge decisions, removing SGP_HUGE and
SGP_NOHUGE; but cannot quite persuade ourselves that it's okay to regress
the protection in this case - Yang Shi points out that the huge page would
remain indefinitely, charged to root instead of the intended memcg.
collapse_file() should not even allocate a small page in this case: why
proceed if someone is punching a hole? SGP_READ is almost the right flag
here, except that it optimizes away from a fallocated page, with NULL to
tell caller to fill with zeroes (like a hole); whereas collapse_file()'s
sequence relies on using a cache page. Add SGP_NOALLOC just for this.
There are too many consecutive "if (page"s there in shmem_getpage_gfp():
group it better; and fix the outdated "bring it back from swap" comment.

There's a block of code in shmem_setattr() to add the inode to
shmem_unused_huge_shrink()'s shrinklist when lowering i_size: it dates
from before 5.7 changed truncation to do split_huge_page() for itself, and
should have been removed at that time.
I am over-stating that: split_huge_page() can fail (notably if there's an
extra reference to the page at that time), so there might be value in
retrying. But there were already retries as truncation worked through the
tails, and this addition risks repeating unsuccessful retries
indefinitely: I'd rather remove it now, and work on reducing the chance of
split_huge_page() failures separately, if we need to.

A successful shmem_fallocate() guarantees that the extent has been
reserved, even beyond i_size when the FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE flag was used.
But that guarantee is broken by shmem_unused_huge_shrink()'s attempts to
split huge pages and free their excess beyond i_size; and by other uses of
split_huge_page() near i_size.
It's sad to add a shmem inode field just for this, but I did not find a
better way to keep the guarantee. A flag to say KEEP_SIZE has been used
would be cheaper, but I'm averse to unclearable flags. The fallocend
field is not perfect either (many disjoint ranges might be fallocated),
but good enough; and gains another use later on.

Patch series "huge tmpfs: shmem_is_huge() fixes and cleanups".
A series of huge tmpfs fixes and cleanups.
This patch (of 9):
shmem_fallocate() goes to a lot of trouble to leave its newly allocated
pages !Uptodate, partly to identify and undo them on failure, partly to
leave the overhead of clearing them until later. But the huge page case
did not skip to the end of the extent, walked through the tail pages one
by one, and appeared to work just fine: but in doing so, cleared and
Uptodated the huge page, so there was no way to undo it on failure.
And by setting Uptodate too soon, it messed up both its nr_falloced and
nr_unswapped counts, so that the intended "time to give up" heuristic did
not work at all.
Now advance immediately to the end of the huge extent, with a comment on
why this is more than just an optimization. But although this speeds up
huge tmpfs fallocation, it does leave the clearing until first use, and
some users may have come to appreciate slow fallocate but fast first use:
if they complain, then we can consider adding a pass to clear at the end.

Each CPU has SHMEM_INO_BATCH inodes available in `->ino_batch' which is
per-CPU. Access here is serialized by disabling preemption. If the pool
is empty, it gets reloaded from `->next_ino'. Access here is serialized
by ->stat_lock which is a spinlock_t and can not be acquired with disabled
preemption.
One way around it would make per-CPU ino_batch struct containing the inode
number a local_lock_t.
Another solution is to promote ->stat_lock to a raw_spinlock_t. The
critical sections are short. The mpol_put() must be moved outside of the
critical section to avoid invoking the destructor with disabled
preemption.
