943a451a87 slab: propagate tunable values
SLAB allows us to tune a particular cache behavior with tunables.  When
creating a new memcg cache copy, we'd like to preserve any tunables the
parent cache already had.

This could be done by an explicit call to do_tune_cpucache() after the
cache is created.  But this is not very convenient now that the caches are
created from common code, since this function is SLAB-specific.

Another method of doing that is taking advantage of the fact that
do_tune_cpucache() is always called from enable_cpucache(), which is
called at cache initialization.  We can just preset the values, and then
things work as expected.

It can also happen that a root cache has its tunables updated during
normal system operation.  In this case, we will propagate the change to
all caches that are already active.

This change will require us to move the assignment of root_cache in
memcg_params a bit earlier.  We need this to be already set - which
memcg_kmem_register_cache will do - when we reach __kmem_cache_create()

749c54151a memcg: aggregate memcg cache values in slabinfo
When we create caches in memcgs, we need to display their usage
information somewhere.  We'll adopt a scheme similar to /proc/meminfo,
with aggregate totals shown in the global file, and per-group information
stored in the group itself.

For the time being, only reads are allowed in the per-group cache.

7cf2798240 memcg/sl[au]b: track all the memcg children of a kmem_cache
This enables us to remove all the children of a kmem_cache being
destroyed, if for example the kernel module it's being used in gets
unloaded.  Otherwise, the children will still point to the destroyed
parent.

55007d8497 memcg: allocate memory for memcg caches whenever a new memcg appears
Every cache that is considered a root cache (basically the "original"
caches, tied to the root memcg/no-memcg) will have an array that should be
large enough to store a cache pointer per each memcg in the system.

Theoreticaly, this is as high as 1 << sizeof(css_id), which is currently
in the 64k pointers range.  Most of the time, we won't be using that much.

What goes in this patch, is a simple scheme to dynamically allocate such
an array, in order to minimize memory usage for memcg caches.  Because we
would also like to avoid allocations all the time, at least for now, the
array will only grow.  It will tend to be big enough to hold the maximum
number of kmem-limited memcgs ever achieved.

We'll allocate it to be a minimum of 64 kmem-limited memcgs.  When we have
more than that, we'll start doubling the size of this array every time the
limit is reached.

Because we are only considering kmem limited memcgs, a natural point for
this to happen is when we write to the limit.  At that point, we already
have set_limit_mutex held, so that will become our natural synchronization
mechanism.

2633d7a028 slab/slub: consider a memcg parameter in kmem_create_cache
Allow a memcg parameter to be passed during cache creation.  When the slub
allocator is being used, it will only merge caches that belong to the same
memcg.  We'll do this by scanning the global list, and then translating
the cache to a memcg-specific cache

Default function is created as a wrapper, passing NULL to the memcg
version.  We only merge caches that belong to the same memcg.

A helper is provided, memcg_css_id: because slub needs a unique cache name
for sysfs.  Since this is visible, but not the canonical location for slab
data, the cache name is not used, the css_id should suffice.

d8843922fb slab: Ignore internal flags in cache creation
Some flags are used internally by the allocators for management
purposes. One example of that is the CFLGS_OFF_SLAB flag that slab uses
to mark that the metadata for that cache is stored outside of the slab.

No cache should ever pass those as a creation flags. We can just ignore
this bit if it happens to be passed (such as when duplicating a cache in
the kmem memcg patches).

Because such flags can vary from allocator to allocator, we allow them
to make their own decisions on that, defining SLAB_AVAILABLE_FLAGS with
all flags that are valid at creation time.  Allocators that doesn't have
any specific flag requirement should define that to mean all flags.

Common code will mask out all flags not belonging to that set.

the printing and handling is done from common code.

bcee6e2a13 mm/sl[au]b: Move print_slabinfo_header to slab_common.c
The header format is highly similar between slab and slub. The main
difference lays in the fact that slab may optionally have statistics
added here in case of CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG, while the slub will stick them
somewhere else.

By making sure that information conditionally lives inside a
globally-visible CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB switch, we can move the header
printing to a common location.

This patch moves all the common machinery to slabinfo processing

210ed9deff mm, slab: release slab_mutex earlier in kmem_cache_destroy()
Commit 1331e7a1bb ("rcu: Remove _rcu_barrier() dependency on

get_online_cpus().

  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0                    CPU1
        ----                    ----
   lock(slab_mutex);
                                lock(cpu_hotplug.lock);
                                lock(slab_mutex);
   lock(rcu_sched_state.barrier_mutex);

  *** DEADLOCK ***
=== [ cut here ] ===

This is actually a false positive. Lockdep has no way of knowing the fact
that the ABBA can actually never happen, because of special semantics of
cpu_hotplug.refcount and its handling in cpu_hotplug_begin(); the mutual
exclusion there is not achieved through mutex, but through
cpu_hotplug.refcount.

The "neither cpu_up() nor cpu_down() will proceed past cpu_hotplug_begin()
until everyone who called get_online_cpus() will call put_online_cpus()"
semantics is totally invisible to lockdep.

This patch therefore moves the unlock of slab_mutex so that rcu_barrier()
is being called with it unlocked. It has two advantages:

- it slightly reduces hold time of slab_mutex; as it's used to protect
  the cachep list, it's not necessary to hold it over kmem_cache_free()
  call any more
- it silences the lockdep false positive warning, as it avoids lockdep ever
  learning about slab_mutex -> cpu_hotplug.lock dependency

cbb79694d5 mm/sl[aou]b: Do slab aliasing call from common code
The slab aliasing logic causes some strange contortions in slub. So add
a call to deal with aliases to slab_common.c but disable it for other
slab allocators by providng stubs that fail to create aliases.

Full general support for aliases will require additional cleanup passes
and more standardization of fields in kmem_cache.

db265eca77 mm/sl[aou]b: Move duping of slab name to slab_common.c
Duping of the slabname has to be done by each slab. Moving this code to
slab_common avoids duplicate implementations.

With this patch we have common string handling for all slab allocators.
Strings passed to kmem_cache_create() are copied internally. Subsystems
can create temporary strings to create slab caches.

Slabs allocated in early states of bootstrap will never be freed (and
those can never be freed since they are essential to slab allocator
operations).  During bootstrap we therefore do not have to worry about
duping names.

12c3667fb7 mm/sl[aou]b: Get rid of __kmem_cache_destroy
What is done there can be done in __kmem_cache_shutdown.

This affects RCU handling somewhat. On rcu free all slab allocators do
not refer to other management structures than the kmem_cache structure.
Therefore these other structures can be freed before the rcu deferred
free to the page allocator occurs.

686d550d22 mm/slab_common: Improve error handling in kmem_cache_create
Instead of using s == NULL use an errorcode. This allows much more
detailed diagnostics as to what went wrong. As we add more functionality
from the slab allocators to the common kmem_cache_create() function we will
also add more error conditions.

Print the error code during the panic as well as in a warning if the module
can handle failure. The API for kmem_cache_create() currently does not allow
the returning of an error code. Return NULL but log the cause of the problem
in the syslog.

77be4b1366 mm/slab: restructure kmem_cache_create() debug checks
kmem_cache_create() does cache integrity checks when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is
defined.  These checks interspersed with the regular code path has lead
to compile time warnings when compiled without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM defined.
Restructuring the code to move the integrity checks in to a new function
would eliminate the current compile warning problem and also will allow
for future changes to the debug only code to evolve without introducing
new warnings in the regular path.

This restructuring work is based on the discussion in the following
thread:

Use the mutex definition from SLAB and make it the common way to take a sleeping lock.

This has the effect of using a mutex instead of a rw semaphore for SLUB.

SLOB gains the use of a mutex for kmem_cache_create serialization.
Not needed now but SLOB may acquire some more features later (like slabinfo
/ sysfs support) through the expansion of the common code that will
need this.
