From: Shakeel Butt Date: Sat, 4 Jan 2020 20:59:43 +0000 (-0800) Subject: memcg: account security cred as well to kmemcg X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5f0950b12953910ebc8a03526afa5cac508075d2;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git memcg: account security cred as well to kmemcg commit 84029fd04c201a4c7e0b07ba262664900f47c6f5 upstream. The cred_jar kmem_cache is already memcg accounted in the current kernel but cred->security is not. Account cred->security to kmemcg. Recently we saw high root slab usage on our production and on further inspection, we found a buggy application leaking processes. Though that buggy application was contained within its memcg but we observe much more system memory overhead, couple of GiBs, during that period. This overhead can adversely impact the isolation on the system. One source of high overhead we found was cred->security objects, which have a lifetime of at least the life of the process which allocated them.
