<id>urn:sha1:0ed074317b835caa6c03bcfa8f133365324673dc</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 4a7ba45b1a435e7097ca0f79a847d0949d0eb088 upstream.

memcg_write_event_control() accesses the dentry-&gt;d_name of the specified
control fd to route the write call.  As a cgroup interface file can't be
renamed, it's safe to access d_name as long as the specified file is a
regular cgroup file.  Also, as these cgroup interface files can't be
removed before the directory, it's safe to access the parent too.

Prior to 347c4a874710 ("memcg: remove cgroup_event-&gt;cft"), there was a
call to __file_cft() which verified that the specified file is a regular
cgroupfs file before further accesses.  The cftype pointer returned from
__file_cft() was no longer necessary and the commit inadvertently dropped
the file type check with it allowing any file to slip through.  With the
invarients broken, the d_name and parent accesses can now race against
renames and removals of arbitrary files and cause use-after-free's.

Fix the bug by resurrecting the file type check in __file_cft().  Now that
cgroupfs is implemented through kernfs, checking the file operations needs
to go through a layer of indirection.  Instead, let's check the superblock
and dentry type.

commit cd08d80ecdac577bad2e8d6805c7a3859fdefb8d upstream.

Kswapd will reclaim memory when memory pressure is high, the annonymous
memory will be compressed and stored in the zpool if zswap is enabled.
The memcg_kmem_bypass() in get_obj_cgroup_from_page() will bypass the
kernel thread and cause the compressed memory not be charged to its memory
cgroup.

Remove the memcg_kmem_bypass() call and properly charge compressed memory
to its corresponding memory cgroup.

<content type='text'>
syzbot is reporting GFP_KERNEL allocation with oom_lock held when
reporting memcg OOM [1].  If this allocation triggers the global OOM
situation then the system can livelock because the GFP_KERNEL
allocation with oom_lock held cannot trigger the global OOM killer
because __alloc_pages_may_oom() fails to hold oom_lock.

Fix this problem by removing the allocation from memory_stat_format()
completely, and pass static buffer when calling from memcg OOM path.

Note that the caller holding filesystem lock was the trigger for syzbot
to report this locking dependency.  Doing GFP_KERNEL allocation with
filesystem lock held can deadlock the system even without involving OOM
situation.

<title>mm: vmpressure: don't count proactive reclaim in vmpressure</title>

<id>urn:sha1:73b73bac90d97400e29e585c678c4d0ebfd2680d</id>
<content type='text'>
memory.reclaim is a cgroup v2 interface that allows users to proactively
reclaim memory from a memcg, without real memory pressure.  Reclaim
operations invoke vmpressure, which is used: (a) To notify userspace of
reclaim efficiency in cgroup v1, and (b) As a signal for a memcg being
under memory pressure for networking (see
mem_cgroup_under_socket_pressure()).

For (a), vmpressure notifications in v1 are not affected by this change
since memory.reclaim is a v2 feature.

For (b), the effects of the vmpressure signal (according to Shakeel [1])
are as follows:
1. Reducing send and receive buffers of the current socket.
2. May drop packets on the rx path.
3. May throttle current thread on the tx path.

Since proactive reclaim is invoked directly by userspace, not by memory
pressure, it makes sense not to throttle networking.  Hence, this change
makes sure that proactive reclaim caused by memory.reclaim does not
trigger vmpressure.

Yafang Shao reported an issue related to the accounting of bpf memory:
if a bpf map is charged indirectly for memory consumed from an
interrupt context and allocations are enforced, MEMCG_MAX events are
not raised.

It's not/less of an issue in a generic case because consequent
allocations from a process context will trigger the direct reclaim and
MEMCG_MAX events will be raised.  However a bpf map can belong to a
dying/abandoned memory cgroup, so there will be no allocations from a
process context and no MEMCG_MAX events will be triggered.

mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled() checks whether the kmem accounting is off. 
Therefore, replace cgroup_memory_nokmem with mem_cgroup_kmem_disabled(),
which is the same work in percpu.c and slab_common.c.

This is used on platforms that have an advanced system bus (like CAPI or

Patch series "mm: introduce shrinker debugfs interface", v5.

The only existing debugging mechanism is a couple of tracepoints in
do_shrink_slab(): mm_shrink_slab_start and mm_shrink_slab_end.  They
aren't covering everything though: shrinkers which report 0 objects will
never show up, there is no support for memcg-aware shrinkers.  Shrinkers
are identified by their scan function, which is not always enough (e.g. 
hard to guess which super block's shrinker it is having only
"super_cache_scan").

To provide a better visibility and debug options for memory shrinkers this
patchset introduces a /sys/kernel/debug/shrinker interface, to some extent
similar to /sys/kernel/slab.

For each shrinker registered in the system a directory is created.  As
now, the directory will contain only a "scan" file, which allows to get
the number of managed objects for each memory cgroup (for memcg-aware
shrinkers) and each numa node (for numa-aware shrinkers on a numa
machine).  Other interfaces might be added in the future.

To make debugging more pleasant, the patchset also names all shrinkers, so
that debugfs entries can have meaningful names.


This patch (of 5):

Shrinker debugfs requires a way to represent memory cgroups without using
full paths, both for displaying information and getting input from a user.

Cgroup inode number is a perfect way, already used by bpf.

This commit adds a couple of helper functions which will be used to handle
memcg-aware shrinkers.
