mm: fork: fix kernel_stack memcg stats for various stack implementations
Depending on CONFIG_VMAP_STACK and the THREAD_SIZE / PAGE_SIZE ratio the space for task stacks can be allocated using __vmalloc_node_range(), alloc_pages_node() and kmem_cache_alloc_node(). In the first and the second cases page->mem_cgroup pointer is set, but in the third it's not: memcg membership of a slab page should be determined using the memcg_from_slab_page() function, which looks at page->slab_cache->memcg_params.memcg . In this case, using mod_memcg_page_state() (as in account_kernel_stack()) is incorrect: page->mem_cgroup pointer is NULL even for pages charged to a non-root memory cgroup. It can lead to kernel_stack per-memcg counters permanently showing 0 on some architectures (depending on the configuration). In order to fix it, let's introduce a mod_memcg_obj_state() helper, which takes a pointer to a kernel object as a first argument, uses mem_cgroup_from_obj() to get a RCU-protected memcg pointer and calls mod_memcg_state(). It allows to handle all possible configurations (CONFIG_VMAP_STACK and various THREAD_SIZE/PAGE_SIZE values) without spilling any memcg/kmem specifics into fork.c . Note: This is a special version of the patch created for stable backports. It contains code from the following two patches: - mm: memcg/slab: introduce mem_cgroup_from_obj() - mm: fork: fix kernel_stack memcg stats for various stack implementations [guro@fb.com: introduce mem_cgroup_from_obj()] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200324004221.GA36662@carbon.dhcp.thefacebook.com Fixes: 4d96ba35 ("mm: memcg/slab: stop setting page->mem_cgroup pointer for slab pages") Signed-off-by: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Shakeel Butt <shakeelb@google.com> Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Cc: Bharata B Rao <bharata@linux.ibm.com> Cc: Shakeel Butt <shakeelb@google.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200303233550.251375-1-guro@fb.comSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
