From 73f576c04b9410ed19660f74f97521bee6e1c546 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Weiner Date: Wed, 20 Jul 2016 15:44:57 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm: memcontrol: fix cgroup creation failure after many small jobs The memory controller has quite a bit of state that usually outlives the cgroup and pins its CSS until said state disappears. At the same time it imposes a 16-bit limit on the CSS ID space to economically store IDs in the wild. Consequently, when we use cgroups to contain frequent but small and short-lived jobs that leave behind some page cache, we quickly run into the 64k limitations of outstanding CSSs. Creating a new cgroup fails with -ENOSPC while there are only a few, or even no user-visible cgroups in existence. Although pinning CSSs past cgroup removal is common, there are only two instances that actually need an ID after a cgroup is deleted: cache shadow entries and swapout records. Cache shadow entries reference the ID weakly and can deal with the CSS having disappeared when it's looked up later. They pose no hurdle. Swap-out records do need to pin the css to hierarchically attribute swapins after the cgroup has been deleted; though the only pages that remain swapped out after offlining are tmpfs/shmem pages. And those references are under the user's control, so they are manageable. This patch introduces a private 16-bit memcg ID and switches swap and cache shadow entries over to using that. This ID can then be recycled after offlining when the CSS remains pinned only by objects that don't specifically need it. This script demonstrates the problem by faulting one cache page in a new cgroup and deleting it again: set -e mkdir -p pages for x in `seq 128000`; do [ $((x % 1000)) -eq 0 ] && echo $x mkdir /cgroup/foo echo $$ >/cgroup/foo/cgroup.procs echo trex >pages/$x echo $$ >/cgroup/cgroup.procs rmdir /cgroup/foo done When run on an unpatched kernel, we eventually run out of possible IDs even though there are no visible cgroups: [root@ham ~]# ./cssidstress.sh [...] 65000 mkdir: cannot create directory '/cgroup/foo': No space left on device After this patch, the IDs get released upon cgroup destruction and the cache and css objects get released once memory reclaim kicks in.
