[PATCH 20/31] huge tmpfs: mem_cgroup shmem_hugepages accounting

From: Hugh Dickins
Date: Tue Apr 05 2016 - 17:48:08 EST


From: Andres Lagar-Cavilla <andreslc@xxxxxxxxxx>

Keep track of all hugepages, not just those mapped.

This has gone through several anguished iterations, memcg stats being
harder to protect against mem_cgroup_move_account() than you might
expect. Abandon the pretence that miscellaneous stats can all be
protected by the same lock_page_memcg(),unlock_page_memcg() scheme:
add mem_cgroup_update_page_stat_treelocked(), using mapping->tree_lock
for safe updates of MEM_CGROUP_STAT_SHMEM_HUGEPAGES (where tree_lock
is already held, but nests inside not outside of memcg->move_lock).

Nowadays, when mem_cgroup_move_account() takes page lock, and is only
called when immigrating pages found in page tables, it almost seems as
if this reliance on tree_lock is unnecessary. But consider the case
when the team head is pte-mapped, and being migrated to a new memcg,
racing with the last page of the team being instantiated: the page
lock is held on the page being instantiated, not on the team head,
so we do still need the tree_lock to serialize them.
