stable inclusion from stable-v6.6.8 commit 6b131c2a2875682bc5ea0d4b15ba76775aa3ea80 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I8ST59
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=...
--------------------------------
commit 8aa420617918d12d1f5d55030a503c9418e73c2c upstream.
While investigating kswapd "consuming 100% CPU" [1] (also see "mm/mglru: try to stop at high watermarks"), it was discovered that the memcg LRU can breach the thrashing protection imposed by min_ttl_ms.
Before the memcg LRU: kswapd() shrink_node_memcgs() mem_cgroup_iter() inc_max_seq() // always hit a different memcg lru_gen_age_node() mem_cgroup_iter() check the timestamp of the oldest generation
After the memcg LRU: kswapd() shrink_many() restart: iterate the memcg LRU: inc_max_seq() // occasionally hit the same memcg if raced with lru_gen_rotate_memcg(): goto restart lru_gen_age_node() mem_cgroup_iter() check the timestamp of the oldest generation
Specifically, when the restart happens in shrink_many(), it needs to stick with the (memcg LRU) generation it began with. In other words, it should neither re-read memcg_lru->seq nor age an lruvec of a different generation. Otherwise it can hit the same memcg multiple times without giving lru_gen_age_node() a chance to check the timestamp of that memcg's oldest generation (against min_ttl_ms).
