I am seeing soft lockup on certain machine types when a cgroup OOMs. This
is happening because killing the process in certain machine might be very
slow, which causes the soft lockup and RCU stalls. This happens usually
when the cgroup has MANY processes and memory.oom.group is set.
Example I am seeing in real production:
[462012.244552] Memory cgroup out of memory: Killed process 3370438 (crosvm) ....
....
[462037.318059] Memory cgroup out of memory: Killed process 4171372 (adb) ....
[462037.348314] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#64 stuck for 26s! [stat_manager-ag:1618982]
....
Quick look at why this is so slow, it seems to be related to serial flush
for certain machine types. For all the crashes I saw, the target CPU was
at console_flush_all().
In the case above, there are thousands of processes in the cgroup, and it
is soft locking up before it reaches the 1024 limit in the code (which
would call the cond_resched()). So, cond_resched() in 1024 blocks is not
sufficient.
Remove the counter-based conditional rescheduling logic and call
cond_resched() unconditionally after each task iteration, after fn() is
called. This avoids the lockup independently of how slow fn() is.

Partially revert commit 0aaddfb06882 ("locking/local_lock: Introduce
localtry_lock_t"). Remove localtry_*() helpers, since localtry_lock()
name might be misinterpreted as "try lock".
Introduce local_trylock[_irqsave]() helpers that only work with newly
introduced local_trylock_t type. Note that attempt to use
local_trylock[_irqsave]() with local_lock_t will cause compilation
failure.
Usage and behavior in !PREEMPT_RT:
local_lock_t lock; // sizeof(lock) == 0
local_lock(&lock); // preempt disable
local_lock_irqsave(&lock, ...); // irq save
if (local_trylock_irqsave(&lock, ...)) // compilation error
local_trylock_t lock; // sizeof(lock) == 4
local_lock(&lock); // preempt disable, acquired = 1
local_lock_irqsave(&lock, ...); // irq save, acquired = 1
if (local_trylock(&lock)) // if (!acquired) preempt disable, acquired = 1
if (local_trylock_irqsave(&lock, ...)) // if (!acquired) irq save, acquired = 1
The existing local_lock_*() macros can be used either with local_lock_t or
local_trylock_t. With local_trylock_t they set acquired = 1 while
local_unlock_*() clears it.
In !PREEMPT_RT local_lock_irqsave(local_lock_t *) disables interrupts to
protect critical section, but it doesn't prevent NMI, so the fully
reentrant code cannot use local_lock_irqsave(local_lock_t *) for exclusive
access.
The local_lock_irqsave(local_trylock_t *) helper disables interrupts and
sets acquired=1, so local_trylock_irqsave(local_trylock_t *) from NMI
attempting to acquire the same lock will return false.
In PREEMPT_RT local_lock_irqsave() maps to preemptible spin_lock(). Map
local_trylock_irqsave() to preemptible spin_trylock(). When in hard IRQ
or NMI return false right away, since spin_trylock() is not safe due to
explicit locking in the underneath rt_spin_trylock() implementation.
Removing this explicit locking and attempting only "trylock" is undesired
due to PI implications.
The local_trylock() without _irqsave can be used to avoid the cost of
disabling/enabling interrupts by only disabling preemption, so
local_trylock() in an interrupt attempting to acquire the same lock will
return false.
Note there is no need to use local_inc for acquired variable, since it's a
percpu variable with strict nesting scopes.
Note that guard(local_lock)(&lock) works only for "local_lock_t lock".
The patch also makes sure that local_lock_release(l) is called before
WRITE_ONCE(l->acquired, 0). Though IRQs are disabled at this point the
local_trylock() from NMI will succeed and local_lock_acquire(l) will warn.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- The series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from Uros
Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide
compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.
This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were
reported. In all cases the calling code was found to be incorrect.
- The series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some
relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code.
- The series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David
Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using
device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is
needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now
succeed.
- The series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed
remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated
for half a year and nobody has complained.
- The series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo
Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime
effects are anticipated.
- The series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from
process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the
madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed
in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark.
- The series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from
Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan
noticed when working on the swap code.
- The series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin
Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak
user-visible output.
- The series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes
handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's
handling of large folios.
- The series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk()
behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of
kdamond's walking of DAMON regions.
- The series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo
Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and
core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory
work for the future removal of page structure fields.
- The series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter"
from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by
huge page sizes.
- The series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings"
from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its
present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and
file-backed mappings.
- The series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during
reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping
for pte-mapped large folios.
- The series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren
Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for
pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more
messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one
microbenchmark.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and
improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON
docs.
- The series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank
van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed
when using CMA on large machines.
- The series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped pages"

Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to
determine whether a particular page is a guard page.
- The series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song
removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply
wasn't being effective.
- The series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from
David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this
code.
- The series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual
implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP
Kconfig logic.
- The series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae
Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for
DAMON's aggregation interval tuning.

powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did this in
preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize
vmalloc.
- The series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype
fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the
code easier to follow.

Pull bpf try_alloc_pages() support from Alexei Starovoitov:
"The pull includes work from Sebastian, Vlastimil and myself with a lot
of help from Michal and Shakeel.
This is a first step towards making kmalloc reentrant to get rid of
slab wrappers: bpf_mem_alloc, kretprobe's objpool, etc. These patches
make page allocator safe from any context.
Vlastimil kicked off this effort at LSFMM 2024:
https://lwn.net/Articles/974138/
and we continued at LSFMM 2025:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAADnVQKfkGxudNUkcPJgwe3nTZ=xohnRshx9kLZBTmR_E1DFEg@mail.gmail.com/
Why:
SLAB wrappers bind memory to a particular subsystem making it
unavailable to the rest of the kernel. Some BPF maps in production
consume Gbytes of preallocated memory. Top 5 in Meta: 1.5G, 1.2G,
1.1G, 300M, 200M. Once we have kmalloc that works in any context BPF
map preallocation won't be necessary.
How:
Synchronous kmalloc/page alloc stack has multiple stages going from
fast to slow: cmpxchg16 -> slab_alloc -> new_slab -> alloc_pages ->
rmqueue_pcplist -> __rmqueue, where rmqueue_pcplist was already
relying on trylock.
This set changes rmqueue_bulk/rmqueue_buddy to attempt a trylock and
return ENOMEM if alloc_flags & ALLOC_TRYLOCK. It then wraps this
functionality into try_alloc_pages() helper. We make sure that the
logic is sane in PREEMPT_RT.
End result: try_alloc_pages()/free_pages_nolock() are safe to call
from any context.
try_kmalloc() for any context with similar trylock approach will
follow. It will use try_alloc_pages() when slab needs a new page.
Though such try_kmalloc/page_alloc() is an opportunistic allocator,
this design ensures that the probability of successful allocation of
small objects (up to one page in size) is high.
Even before we have try_kmalloc(), we already use try_alloc_pages() in
BPF arena implementation and it's going to be used more extensively in
BPF"

Patch series "Adding Proactive Memory Reclaim Statistics".
These two patches are related to proactive memory reclaim.
Patch 1 Split proactive reclaim statistics from direct reclaim counters
and introduces new counters: pgsteal_proactive, pgdemote_proactive,
and pgscan_proactive.
Patch 2 Adds pswpin and pswpout items to the cgroup-v2 documentation.
This patch (of 2):
In proactive memory reclaim scenarios, it is necessary to accurately track
proactive reclaim statistics to dynamically adjust the frequency and
amount of memory being reclaimed proactively. Currently, proactive
reclaim is included in direct reclaim statistics, which can make these
direct reclaim statistics misleading.
Therefore, separate proactive reclaim memory from the direct reclaim
counters by introducing new counters: pgsteal_proactive,
pgdemote_proactive, and pgscan_proactive, to avoid confusion with direct
reclaim.

We know that the passed in page is not part of a folio (it's a plain page

Patch series "Minor memcg cleanups & prep for memdescs", v2.
Separate the handling of accounted folios and GFP_ACCOUNT pages for easier
to understand code. For more detail, see
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/Z9LwTOudOlCGny3f@casper.infradead.org/
This patch (of 5):
Folios always use memcg_data to refer to the mem_cgroup while pages
allocated with GFP_ACCOUNT have a pointer to the obj_cgroup. Since the
caller already knows what it has, split the function into two and then we
don't need to check.
Move the assignment of split folio memcg_data to the point where we set up
the other parts of the new folio. That leaves folio_split_memcg_refs()
just handling the memcg accounting.

We never charge the page counters of root memcg, so there is no need to
put root memcg in the memcg stock. At the moment, refill_stock() can be
called from try_charge_memcg(), obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages() and
mem_cgroup_uncharge_skmem().
The try_charge_memcg() and mem_cgroup_uncharge_skmem() are never called
with root memcg, so those are fine. However obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages()
can potentially call refill_stock() with root memcg if the objcg object
has been reparented over to the root memcg. Let's just avoid
refill_stock() from obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages() for root memcg.

Currently page_counter tracks failcnt for counters used by v1 and v2
controllers. However failcnt is only exported for v1 deployment and thus
there is no need to maintain it in v2. The oom report does expose failcnt
for memory and swap in v2 but v2 already maintains MEMCG_MAX and
MEMCG_SWAP_MAX event counters which can be used.

Patch series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction".
Commit c6f53ed8f213a ("mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers")
accidently increased the size of struct page_counter. This series

This patch (of 3):
Memcg-v1 does not support memory protection (min/low) and thus there is no
need to track protected memory usage for it.

The interweaving of two entirely different swap accounting strategies has
been one of the more confusing parts of the memcg code. Split out the v1
code to clarify the implementation and a handful of callsites, and to
avoid building the v1 bits when !CONFIG_MEMCG_V1.

The 'free_mem_cgroup_per_node_info' function is used to free the
'mem_cgroup_per_node' struct. Using 'pn' as the input for the
free_mem_cgroup_per_node_info function will be much clearer. Call
'free_mem_cgroup_per_node_info' when 'alloc_mem_cgroup_per_node_info'

Currently on cpu hotplug teardown, only memcg stock is drained but we
need to drain the obj stock as well otherwise we will miss the stats
accumulated on the target cpu as well as the nr_bytes cached. The stats
include MEMCG_KMEM, NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE_B & NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE_B. In
addition we are leaking reference to struct obj_cgroup object.

Commit 6769183166b3 removed the parameter of id from swap_cgroup_record()
and get the memcg id from mem_cgroup_id(folio_memcg(folio)). However, the
caller of it may update a different memcg's counter instead of
folio_memcg(folio).
E.g. in the caller of mem_cgroup_swapout(), @swap_memcg could be
different with @memcg and update the counter of @swap_memcg, but
swap_cgroup_record() records the wrong memcg's ID. When it is uncharged
from __mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap(), the swap counter will leak since the
wrong recorded ID.
Fix it by bringing the parameter of id back.

Teach memcg to operate under trylock conditions when spinning locks
cannot be used.
localtry_trylock might fail and this would lead to charge cache bypass
if the calling context doesn't allow spinning (gfpflags_allow_spinning).
In those cases charge the memcg counter directly and fail early if
that is not possible. This might cause a pre-mature charge failing
but it will allow an opportunistic charging that is safe from
try_alloc_pages path.

The stress test involves CPU hotplug operations and memory control group
(memcg) operations. The scenario can be described as follows:
echo xx > memory.max cache_ap_online oom_reaper
(CPU23) (CPU50)
xx < usage stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu
for(;;) // all active cpus
trigger OOM queue_stop_cpus_work
// waiting oom_reaper
multi_cpu_stop(migration/xx)
// sync all active cpus ack
// waiting cpu23 ack
// CPU50 loops in multi_cpu_stop
waiting cpu50
Detailed explanation:
1. When the usage is larger than xx, an OOM may be triggered. If the
process does not handle with ths kill signal immediately, it will loop
in the memory_max_write.
2. When cache_ap_online is triggered, the multi_cpu_stop is queued to the
active cpus. Within the multi_cpu_stop function, it attempts to
synchronize the CPU states. However, the CPU23 didn't acknowledge
because it is stuck in a loop within the for(;;).
3. The oom_reaper process is blocked because CPU50 is in a loop, waiting
for CPU23 to acknowledge the synchronization request.
4. Finally, it formed cyclic dependency and lead to softlockup and dead
loop.
To fix this issue, add cond_resched() in the memory_max_write, so that it
will not block migration task.

The current implementation of swap cgroup tracking is a bit complex and
fragile:
On charging path, swap_cgroup_record always records an actual memcg id,
and it depends on the caller to make sure all entries passed in must
belong to one single folio. As folios are always charged or uncharged as
a whole, and always charged and uncharged in order, swap_cgroup doesn't
need an extra lock.
On uncharging path, swap_cgroup_record always sets the record to zero.
These entries won't be charged again until uncharging is done. So there
is no extra lock needed either. Worth noting that swap cgroup clearing
may happen without folio involved, eg. exiting processes will zap its
page table without swapin.
The xchg/cmpxchg provides atomic operations and barriers to ensure no
tearing or synchronization issue of these swap cgroup records.
It works but quite error-prone. Things can be much clear and robust by
decoupling recording and clearing into two helpers. Recording takes the
actual folio being charged as argument, and clearing always set the record
to zero, and refine the debug sanity checks to better reflect their usage
Benchmark even showed a very slight improvement as it saved some
extra arguments and lookups:
make -j96 with defconfig on tmpfs in 1.5G memory cgroup using 4k folios:
Before: sys 9617.23 (stdev 37.764062)
After : sys 9541.54 (stdev 42.973976)

Patch series "mm/swap_cgroup: remove global swap cgroup lock", v3.
This series removes the global swap cgroup lock. The critical section of
this lock is very short but it's still a bottle neck for mass parallel
swap workloads.
Up to 10% performance gain for tmpfs build kernel test on a 48c96t system
under memory pressure, and no regression for other cases:
This patch (of 3):
mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap() includes a mem_cgroup_disabled() check,
so the caller doesn't need to check that.

This patch introduces mem_cgroup_charge_hugetlb which combines the logic
of mem_cgroup_hugetlb_try_charge / mem_cgroup_hugetlb_commit_charge and
removes the need for mem_cgroup_hugetlb_cancel_charge. It also reduces
the footprint of memcg in hugetlb code and consolidates all memcg related
error paths into one.

Patch series "memcg/hugetlb: Rework memcg hugetlb charging", v3.
This series cleans up memcg's hugetlb charging logic by deprecating the
current memcg hugetlb try-charge + {commit, cancel} logic present in
alloc_hugetlb_folio. A single function mem_cgroup_charge_hugetlb takes
its place instead. This makes the code more maintainable by simplifying
the error path and reduces memcg's footprint in hugetlb logic.
This patch introduces a few changes in the hugetlb folio allocation
error path:
(a) Instead of having multiple return points, we consolidate them to
two: one for reaching the memcg limit or running out of memory
(-ENOMEM) and one for hugetlb allocation fails / limit being
reached (-ENOSPC).
(b) Previously, the memcg limit was checked before the folio is acquired,
meaning the hugeTLB folio isn't acquired if the limit is reached.
This patch performs the charging after the folio is reached, meaning
if memcg's limit is reached, the acquired folio is freed right away.
This patch builds on two earlier patch series: [2] which adds memcg
hugeTLB counters, and [3] which deprecates charge moving and removes the
last references to mem_cgroup_cancel_charge. The request for this cleanup
can be found in [2].
