* Revert "mm: shrinkers: make count and scan in shrinker debugfs lockless"Qi Zheng2023-06-191-8/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 20cd1892fcc3efc10a7ac327cc3790494bec46b5. Kernel test robot reports -88.8% regression in stress-ng.ramfs.ops_per_sec test case [1], which is caused by commit f95bdb700bc6 ("mm: vmscan: make global slab shrink lockless"). The root cause is that SRCU has to be careful to not frequently check for SRCU read-side critical section exits. Therefore, even if no one is currently in the SRCU read-side critical section, synchronize_srcu() cannot return quickly. That's why unregister_shrinker() has become slower. We will try to use the refcount+RCU method [2] proposed by Dave Chinner to continue to re-implement the lockless slab shrink. So revert the shrinker_srcu related changes first.

* Revert "mm: shrinkers: convert shrinker_rwsem to mutex"Qi Zheng2023-06-191-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "revert shrinker_srcu related changes". This patch (of 7): This reverts commit cf2e309ebca7bb0916771839f9b580b06c778530. Kernel test robot reports -88.8% regression in stress-ng.ramfs.ops_per_sec test case [1], which is caused by commit f95bdb700bc6 ("mm: vmscan: make global slab shrink lockless"). The root cause is that SRCU has to be careful to not frequently check for SRCU read-side critical section exits. Therefore, even if no one is currently in the SRCU read-side critical section, synchronize_srcu() cannot return quickly. That's why unregister_shrinker() has become slower. After discussion, we will try to use the refcount+RCU method [2] proposed by Dave Chinner to continue to re-implement the lockless slab shrink. So revert the shrinker_mutex back to shrinker_rwsem first.

* mm: shrinkers: fix race condition on debugfs cleanupJoan Bruguera Micó2023-05-171-5/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When something registers and unregisters many shrinkers, such as: for x in $(seq 10000); do unshare -Ui true; done Sometimes the following error is printed to the kernel log: debugfs: Directory '...' with parent 'shrinker' already present! This occurs since commit badc28d4924b ("mm: shrinkers: fix deadlock in shrinker debugfs") / v6.2: Since the call to `debugfs_remove_recursive` was moved outside the `shrinker_rwsem`/`shrinker_mutex` lock, but the call to `ida_free` stayed inside, a newly registered shrinker can be re-assigned that ID and attempt to create the debugfs directory before the directory from the previous shrinker has been removed. The locking changes in commit f95bdb700bc6 ("mm: vmscan: make global slab shrink lockless") made the race condition more likely, though it existed before then. Commit badc28d4924b ("mm: shrinkers: fix deadlock in shrinker debugfs") could be reverted since the issue is addressed should no longer occur since the count and scan operations are lockless since commit 20cd1892fcc3 ("mm: shrinkers: make count and scan in shrinker debugfs lockless"). However, since this is a contended lock, prefer instead moving `ida_free` outside the lock to avoid the race.

* mm: shrinkers: fix debugfs file permissionsJohn Keeping2023-04-211-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | The permissions for the files here are swapped as "count" is read-only and "scan" is write-only. While this doesn't really matter as these permissions don't stop the files being opened for reading/writing as appropriate, they are shown by "ls -l" and are confusing.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The debugfs_remove_recursive() is invoked by unregister_shrinker(), which is holding the write lock of shrinker_rwsem. It will waits for the handler of debugfs file complete. The handler also needs to hold the read lock of shrinker_rwsem to do something. So it may cause the following deadlock: CPU0 CPU1 debugfs_file_get() shrinker_debugfs_count_show()/shrinker_debugfs_scan_write() unregister_shrinker() --> down_write(&shrinker_rwsem); debugfs_remove_recursive() // wait for (A) --> wait_for_completion(); // wait for (B) --> down_read_killable(&shrinker_rwsem) debugfs_file_put() -- (A) up_write() -- (B) The down_read_killable() can be killed, so that the above deadlock can be recovered. But it still requires an extra kill action, otherwise it will block all subsequent shrinker-related operations, so it's better to fix it.

* mm: shrinkers: add scan interface for shrinker debugfsRoman Gushchin2022-07-031-0/+74
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a scan interface which allows to trigger scanning of a particular shrinker and specify memcg and numa node. It's useful for testing, debugging and profiling of a specific scan_objects() callback. Unlike alternatives (creating a real memory pressure and dropping caches via /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches) this interface allows to interact with only one shrinker at once. Also, if a shrinker is misreporting the number of objects (as some do), it doesn't affect scanning.

* mm: shrinkers: provide shrinkers with namesRoman Gushchin2022-07-031-2/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently shrinkers are anonymous objects. For debugging purposes they can be identified by count/scan function names, but it's not always useful: e.g. for superblock's shrinkers it's nice to have at least an idea of to which superblock the shrinker belongs. This commit adds names to shrinkers. register_shrinker() and prealloc_shrinker() functions are extended to take a format and arguments to master a name. In some cases it's not possible to determine a good name at the time when a shrinker is allocated. For such cases shrinker_debugfs_rename() is provided. The expected format is: <subsystem>-<shrinker_type>[:<instance>]-<id> For some shrinkers an instance can be encoded as (MAJOR:MINOR) pair. After this change the shrinker debugfs directory looks like: $ cd /sys/kernel/debug/shrinker/ $ ls dquota-cache-16 sb-devpts-28 sb-proc-47 sb-tmpfs-42 mm-shadow-18 sb-devtmpfs-5 sb-proc-48 sb-tmpfs-43 mm-zspool:zram0-34 sb-hugetlbfs-17 sb-pstore-31 sb-tmpfs-44 rcu-kfree-0 sb-hugetlbfs-33 sb-rootfs-2 sb-tmpfs-49 sb-aio-20 sb-iomem-12 sb-securityfs-6 sb-tracefs-13 sb-anon_inodefs-15 sb-mqueue-21 sb-selinuxfs-22 sb-xfs:vda1-36 sb-bdev-3 sb-nsfs-4 sb-sockfs-8 sb-zsmalloc-19 sb-bpf-32 sb-pipefs-14 sb-sysfs-26 thp-deferred_split-10 sb-btrfs:vda2-24 sb-proc-25 sb-tmpfs-1 thp-zero-9 sb-cgroup2-30 sb-proc-39 sb-tmpfs-27 xfs-buf:vda1-37 sb-configfs-23 sb-proc-41 sb-tmpfs-29 xfs-inodegc:vda1-38 sb-dax-11 sb-proc-45 sb-tmpfs-35 sb-debugfs-7 sb-proc-46 sb-tmpfs-40 [roman.gushchin@linux.dev: fix build warnings] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/Yr+ZTnLb9lJk6fJO@castle Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220601032227.4076670-4-roman.gushchin@linux.dev Signed-off-by: Roman Gushchin <roman.gushchin@linux.dev> Cc: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> Cc: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Cc: Hillf Danton <hdanton@sina.com> Cc: Kent Overstreet <kent.overstreet@gmail.com> Cc: Muchun Song <songmuchun@bytedance.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
* mm: shrinkers: introduce debugfs interface for memory shrinkersRoman Gushchin2022-07-031-0/+168
This commit introduces the /sys/kernel/debug/shrinker debugfs interface which provides an ability to observe the state of individual kernel memory shrinkers. Because the feature adds some memory overhead (which shouldn't be large unless there is a huge amount of registered shrinkers), it's guarded by a config option (enabled by default). This commit introduces the "count" interface for each shrinker registered in the system. The output is in the following format: <cgroup inode id> <nr of objects on node 0> <nr of objects on node 1>... <cgroup inode id> <nr of objects on node 0> <nr of objects on node 1>... ... To reduce the size of output on machines with many thousands cgroups, if the total number of objects on all nodes is 0, the line is omitted. If the shrinker is not memcg-aware or CONFIG_MEMCG is off, 0 is printed as cgroup inode id. If the shrinker is not numa-aware, 0's are printed for all nodes except the first one. This commit gives debugfs entries simple numeric names, which are not very convenient. The following commit in the series will provide shrinkers with more meaningful names.
