--------------------------------
Patch series "mm: memcg: subtree stats flushing and thresholds", v4.
This series attempts to address shortages in today's approach for memcg stats flushing, namely occasionally stale or expensive stat reads. The series does so by changing the threshold that we use to decide whether to trigger a flush to be per memcg instead of global (patch 3), and then changing flushing to be per memcg (i.e. subtree flushes) instead of global (patch 5).
This patch (of 5):
flush_next_time is an inaccurate name. It's not the next time that periodic flushing will happen, it's rather the next time that ratelimited flushing can happen if the periodic flusher is late.
Simplify its semantics by just storing the timestamp of the last flush instead, flush_last_time. Move the 2*FLUSH_TIME addition to mem_cgroup_flush_stats_ratelimited(), and add a comment explaining it. This way, all the ratelimiting semantics live in one place.
No functional change intended.

The following patch will make use of those structs in the flushing code, so move their definitions (and a few other dependencies) a little bit up to reduce the diff noise in the following patch.

mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.8-rc1 commit 8d59d2214c2362e7a9d185d80b613e632581af7b category: feature bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I9RPY4
--------------------------------
A global counter for the magnitude of memcg stats update is maintained on the memcg side to avoid invoking rstat flushes when the pending updates are not significant. This avoids unnecessary flushes, which are not very cheap even if there isn't a lot of stats to flush. It also avoids unnecessary lock contention on the underlying global rstat lock.
Make this threshold per-memcg. The scheme is followed where percpu (now also per-memcg) counters are incremented in the update path, and only propagated to per-memcg atomics when they exceed a certain threshold.
This provides two benefits: (a) On large machines with a lot of memcgs, the global threshold can be reached relatively fast, so guarding the underlying lock becomes less effective. Making the threshold per-memcg avoids this.
(b) Having a global threshold makes it hard to do subtree flushes, as we cannot reset the global counter except for a full flush. Per-memcg counters removes this as a blocker from doing subtree flushes, which helps avoid unnecessary work when the stats of a small subtree are needed.
Nothing is free, of course. This comes at a cost: (a) A new per-cpu counter per memcg, consuming NR_CPUS * NR_MEMCGS * 4 bytes. The extra memory usage is insigificant.
(b) More work on the update side, although in the common case it will only be percpu counter updates. The amount of work scales with the number of ancestors (i.e. tree depth). This is not a new concept, adding a cgroup to the rstat tree involves a parent loop, so is charging. Testing results below show no significant regressions.
(c) The error margin in the stats for the system as a whole increases from NR_CPUS * MEMCG_CHARGE_BATCH to NR_CPUS * MEMCG_CHARGE_BATCH * NR_MEMCGS. This is probably fine because we have a similar per-memcg error in charges coming from percpu stocks, and we have a periodic flusher that makes sure we always flush all the stats every 2s anyway.
This patch was tested to make sure no significant regressions are introduced on the update path as follows. The following benchmarks were ran in a cgroup that is 2 levels deep (/sys/fs/cgroup/a/b/):
(1) Running 22 instances of netperf on a 44 cpu machine with hyperthreading disabled. All instances are run in a level 2 cgroup, as well as netserver: # netserver -6 # netperf -6 -H ::1 -l 60 -t TCP_SENDFILE -- -m 10K
Averaging 20 runs, the numbers are as follows: Base: 40198.0 mbps Patched: 38629.7 mbps (-3.9%)
The regression is minimal, especially for 22 instances in the same cgroup sharing all ancestors (so updating the same atomics).
(2) will-it-scale page_fault tests. These tests (specifically per_process_ops in page_fault3 test) detected a 25.9% regression before for a change in the stats update path [1]. These are the numbers from 10 runs (+ is good) on a machine with 256 cpus:

All regressions seem to be minimal, and within the normal variance for the benchmark. The fix for [1] assumes that 3% is noise -- and there were no further practical complaints), so hopefully this means that such variations in these microbenchmarks do not reflect on practical workloads.
(3) I also ran stress-ng in a nested cgroup and did not observe any obvious regressions.

--------------------------------
The workingset code flushes the stats in workingset_refault() to get accurate stats of the eviction memcg. In preparation for more scoped flushed and passing the eviction memcg to the flush call, move the call to workingset_test_recent() where we have a pointer to the eviction memcg.
The flush call is sleepable, and cannot be made in an rcu read section. Hence, minimize the rcu read section by also moving it into workingset_test_recent(). Furthermore, instead of holding the rcu read lock throughout workingset_test_recent(), only hold it briefly to get a ref on the eviction memcg. This allows us to make the flush call after we get the eviction memcg.
As for workingset_refault(), nothing else there appears to be protected by rcu. The memcg of the faulted folio (which is not necessarily the same as the eviction memcg) is protected by the folio lock, which is held from all callsites. Add a VM_BUG_ON() to make sure this doesn't change from under us.
No functional change intended.

mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.8-rc1 commit 7d7ef0a4686abe43cd76a141b340a348f45ecdf2 category: feature bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I9RPY4
--------------------------------
Stats flushing for memcg currently follows the following rules: - Always flush the entire memcg hierarchy (i.e. flush the root). - Only one flusher is allowed at a time. If someone else tries to flush concurrently, they skip and return immediately. - A periodic flusher flushes all the stats every 2 seconds.
The reason this approach is followed is because all flushes are serialized by a global rstat spinlock. On the memcg side, flushing is invoked from userspace reads as well as in-kernel flushers (e.g. reclaim, refault, etc). This approach aims to avoid serializing all flushers on the global lock, which can cause a significant performance hit under high concurrency.
This approach has the following problems: - Occasionally a userspace read of the stats of a non-root cgroup will be too expensive as it has to flush the entire hierarchy [1]. - Sometimes the stats accuracy are compromised if there is an ongoing flush, and we skip and return before the subtree of interest is actually flushed, yielding stale stats (by up to 2s due to periodic flushing). This is more visible when reading stats from userspace, but can also affect in-kernel flushers.
The latter problem is particulary a concern when userspace reads stats after an event occurs, but gets stats from before the event. Examples: - When memory usage / pressure spikes, a userspace OOM handler may look at the stats of different memcgs to select a victim based on various heuristics (e.g. how much private memory will be freed by killing this). Reading stale stats from before the usage spike in this case may cause a wrongful OOM kill. - A proactive reclaimer may read the stats after writing to memory.reclaim to measure the success of the reclaim operation. Stale stats from before reclaim may give a false negative. - Reading the stats of a parent and a child memcg may be inconsistent (child larger than parent), if the flush doesn't happen when the parent is read, but happens when the child is read.
As for in-kernel flushers, they will occasionally get stale stats. No regressions are currently known from this, but if there are regressions, they would be very difficult to debug and link to the source of the problem.
This patch aims to fix these problems by restoring subtree flushing, and removing the unified/coalesced flushing logic that skips flushing if there is an ongoing flush. This change would introduce a significant regression with global stats flushing thresholds. With per-memcg stats flushing thresholds, this seems to perform really well. The thresholds protect the underlying lock from unnecessary contention.
This patch was tested in two ways to ensure the latency of flushing is up to par, on a machine with 384 cpus:
- A synthetic test with 5000 concurrent workers in 500 cgroups doing allocations and reclaim, as well as 1000 readers for memory.stat (variation of [2]). No regressions were noticed in the total runtime. Note that significant regressions in this test are observed with global stats thresholds, but not with per-memcg thresholds.
- A synthetic stress test for concurrently reading memcg stats while memory allocation/freeing workers are running in the background, provided by Wei Xu [3]. With 250k threads reading the stats every 100ms in 50k cgroups, 99.9% of reads take <= 50us. Less than 0.01% of reads take more than 1ms, and no reads take more than 100ms.
