System calls with an unsigned long long argument can't be converted with
the standard wrappers since that would include a cast to long, which in
turn means that we would lose the upper 32 bit on 32 bit architectures.
Also semctl can't use the standard wrapper since it has a 'union'
parameter.
So we handle them as special case and add some extra wrappers instead.

Convert all system calls to return a long. This should be a NOP since all
converted types should have the same size anyway.
With the exception of sys_exit_group which returned void. But that doesn't
matter since the system call doesn't return.

Some code (nfs/sunrpc) uses socket ops on kernel memory while holding
the mmap_sem, this is safe because kernel memory doesn't get paged out,
therefore we'll never actually fault, and the might_fault() annotations

Now, you can see following even when swap accounting is enabled.
1. Create Group 01, and 02.
2. allocate a "file" on tmpfs by a task under 01.
3. swap out the "file" (by memory pressure)
4. Read "file" from a task in group 02.
5. the charge of "file" is moved to group 02.
This is not ideal behavior. This is because SwapCache which was loaded
by read-ahead is not taken into account..
This is a patch to fix shmem's swapcache behavior.
- remove mem_cgroup_cache_charge_swapin().
- Add SwapCache handler routine to mem_cgroup_cache_charge().
By this, shmem's file cache is charged at add_to_page_cache()
with GFP_NOWAIT.
- pass the page of swapcache to shrink_mem_cgroup.

Fix swapin charge operation of memcg.
Now, memcg has hooks to swap-out operation and checks SwapCache is really
unused or not. That check depends on contents of struct page. I.e. If
PageAnon(page) && page_mapped(page), the page is recoginized as
still-in-use.
Now, reuse_swap_page() calles delete_from_swap_cache() before establishment
of any rmap. Then, in followinig sequence
(Page fault with WRITE)
try_charge() (charge += PAGESIZE)
commit_charge() (Check page_cgroup is used or not..)
reuse_swap_page()
-> delete_from_swapcache()
-> mem_cgroup_uncharge_swapcache() (charge -= PAGESIZE)
......
New charge is uncharged soon....
To avoid this, move commit_charge() after page_mapcount() goes up to 1.
By this,
try_charge() (usage += PAGESIZE)
reuse_swap_page() (may usage -= PAGESIZE if PCG_USED is set)
commit_charge() (If page_cgroup is not marked as PCG_USED,
add new charge.)
Accounting will be correct.
Changelog (v2) -> (v3)
- fixed invalid charge to swp_entry==0.
- updated documentation.
Changelog (v1) -> (v2)
- fixed comment.

mpol_rebind_mm(), which can be called from cpuset_attach(), does
down_write(mm->mmap_sem). This means down_write(mm->mmap_sem) can be
called under cgroup_mutex.
OTOH, page fault path does down_read(mm->mmap_sem) and calls
mem_cgroup_try_charge_xxx(), which may eventually calls
mem_cgroup_out_of_memory(). And mem_cgroup_out_of_memory() calls
cgroup_lock(). This means cgroup_lock() can be called under
down_read(mm->mmap_sem).
If those two paths race, deadlock can happen.
This patch avoid this deadlock by:
- remove cgroup_lock() from mem_cgroup_out_of_memory().
- define new mutex (memcg_tasklist) and serialize mem_cgroup_move_task()
(->attach handler of memory cgroup) and mem_cgroup_out_of_memory.

mem_cgroup_subsys.disabled. I think it has more references than expected,
now.
replacing
if (mem_cgroup_subsys.disabled)
with
if (mem_cgroup_disabled())
give us good look, I think.

A big patch for changing memcg's LRU semantics.
Now,
- page_cgroup is linked to mem_cgroup's its own LRU (per zone).
- LRU of page_cgroup is not synchronous with global LRU.
- page and page_cgroup is one-to-one and statically allocated.
- To find page_cgroup is on what LRU, you have to check pc->mem_cgroup as
- lru = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(pc, nid_of_pc, zid_of_pc);
- SwapCache is handled.
And, when we handle LRU list of page_cgroup, we do following.
pc = lookup_page_cgroup(page);
lock_page_cgroup(pc); .....................(1)
mz = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(pc);
spin_lock(&mz->lru_lock);
.....add to LRU
spin_unlock(&mz->lru_lock);
unlock_page_cgroup(pc);
But (1) is spin_lock and we have to be afraid of dead-lock with zone->lru_lock.
So, trylock() is used at (1), now. Without (1), we can't trust "mz" is correct.
This is a trial to remove this dirty nesting of locks.
This patch changes mz->lru_lock to be zone->lru_lock.
Then, above sequence will be written as
spin_lock(&zone->lru_lock); # in vmscan.c or swap.c via global LRU
mem_cgroup_add/remove/etc_lru() {
pc = lookup_page_cgroup(page);
mz = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(pc);
if (PageCgroupUsed(pc)) {
....add to LRU
}
spin_lock(&zone->lru_lock); # in vmscan.c or swap.c via global LRU
This is much simpler.
(*) We're safe even if we don't take lock_page_cgroup(pc). Because..
1. When pc->mem_cgroup can be modified.
- at charge.
- at account_move().
2. at charge
the PCG_USED bit is not set before pc->mem_cgroup is fixed.
3. at account_move()
the page is isolated and not on LRU.
Pros.
- easy for maintenance.
- memcg can make use of laziness of pagevec.
- we don't have to duplicated LRU/Active/Unevictable bit in page_cgroup.
- LRU status of memcg will be synchronized with global LRU's one.
- # of locks are reduced.
- account_move() is simplified very much.
Cons.
- may increase cost of LRU rotation.
(no impact if memcg is not configured.)

This patch implements per cgroup limit for usage of memory+swap. However
there are SwapCache, double counting of swap-cache and swap-entry is
avoided.
Mem+Swap controller works as following.
- memory usage is limited by memory.limit_in_bytes.
- memory + swap usage is limited by memory.memsw_limit_in_bytes.
This has following benefits.
- A user can limit total resource usage of mem+swap.
Without this, because memory resource controller doesn't take care of
usage of swap, a process can exhaust all the swap (by memory leak.)
We can avoid this case.
And Swap is shared resource but it cannot be reclaimed (goes back to memory)
until it's used. This characteristic can be trouble when the memory
is divided into some parts by cpuset or memcg.
Assume group A and group B.
After some application executes, the system can be..
Group A -- very large free memory space but occupy 99% of swap.
Group B -- under memory shortage but cannot use swap...it's nearly full.
Ability to set appropriate swap limit for each group is required.
Maybe someone wonder "why not swap but mem+swap ?"
- The global LRU(kswapd) can swap out arbitrary pages. Swap-out means
to move account from memory to swap...there is no change in usage of
mem+swap.
In other words, when we want to limit the usage of swap without affecting
global LRU, mem+swap limit is better than just limiting swap.
Accounting target information is stored in swap_cgroup which is
per swap entry record.
Charge is done as following.
map
- charge page and memsw.
unmap
- uncharge page/memsw if not SwapCache.
swap-out (__delete_from_swap_cache)
- uncharge page
- record mem_cgroup information to swap_cgroup.
swap-in (do_swap_page)
- charged as page and memsw.
record in swap_cgroup is cleared.
memsw accounting is decremented.
swap-free (swap_free())
- if swap entry is freed, memsw is uncharged by PAGE_SIZE.
There are people work under never-swap environments and consider swap as
something bad. For such people, this mem+swap controller extension is just an
overhead. This overhead is avoided by config or boot option.
(see Kconfig. detail is not in this patch.)
TODO:
- maybe more optimization can be don in swap-in path. (but not very safe.)
But we just do simple accounting at this stage.

For accounting swap, we need a record per swap entry, at least.
This patch adds following function.
- swap_cgroup_swapon() .... called from swapon
- swap_cgroup_swapoff() ... called at the end of swapoff.
- swap_cgroup_record() .... record information of swap entry.
- swap_cgroup_lookup() .... lookup information of swap entry.
This patch just implements "how to record information". No actual method
for limit the usage of swap. These routine uses flat table to record and
lookup. "wise" lookup system like radix-tree requires requires memory
allocation at new records but swap-out is usually called under memory
shortage (or memcg hits limit.) So, I used static allocation. (maybe
dynamic allocation is not very hard but it adds additional memory
allocation in memory shortage path.)
Note1: In this, we use pointer to record information and this means
8bytes per swap entry. I think we can reduce this when we
create "id of cgroup" in the range of 0-65535 or 0-255.

Config and control variable for mem+swap controller.
This patch adds CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP
(memory resource controller swap extension.)
For accounting swap, it's obvious that we have to use additional memory to
remember "who uses swap". This adds more overhead. So, it's better to
offer "choice" to users. This patch adds 2 choices.
This patch adds 2 parameters to enable swap extension or not.
- CONFIG
- boot option

SwapCache support for memory resource controller (memcg)
Before mem+swap controller, memcg itself should handle SwapCache in proper
way. This is cut-out from it.
In current memcg, SwapCache is just leaked and the user can create tons of
SwapCache. This is a leak of account and should be handled.
SwapCache accounting is done as following.
charge (anon)
- charged when it's mapped.
(because of readahead, charge at add_to_swap_cache() is not sane)
uncharge (anon)
- uncharged when it's dropped from swapcache and fully unmapped.
means it's not uncharged at unmap.
Note: delete from swap cache at swap-in is done after rmap information
is established.
charge (shmem)
- charged at swap-in. this prevents charge at add_to_page_cache().
uncharge (shmem)
- uncharged when it's dropped from swapcache and not on shmem's
radix-tree.
at migration, check against 'old page' is modified to handle shmem.
Comparing to the old version discussed (and caused troubles), we have
advantages of
- PCG_USED bit.
- simple migrating handling.
So, situation is much easier than several months ago, maybe.
