Subject: [PATCH 4/6] memcg, slab: check and init memcg_cahes under slab_mutex
The memcg_params::memcg_caches array can be updated concurrently from
memcg_update_cache_size() and memcg_create_kmem_cache(). Although both
of these functions take the slab_mutex during their operation, the
latter checks if memcg's cache has already been allocated w/o taking the
mutex. This can result in a race as described below.
Asume two threads schedule kmem_cache creation works for the same
kmem_cache of the same memcg from __memcg_kmem_get_cache(). One of the
works successfully creates it. Another work should fail then, but if it
interleaves with memcg_update_cache_size() as follows, it does not:
memcg_create_kmem_cache() memcg_update_cache_size()
(called w/o mutexes held) (called with slab_mutex held)
------------------------- -------------------------
mutex_lock(&memcg_cache_mutex)
s->memcg_params=kzalloc(...)
new_cachep=cache_from_memcg_idx(cachep,idx)
// new_cachep==NULL => proceed to creation
s->memcg_params->memcg_caches[i]
=cur_params->memcg_caches[i]
// kmem_cache_dup takes slab_mutex so we will
// hang around here until memcg_update_cache_size()
// finishes, but ...
new_cachep = kmem_cache_dup(memcg, cachep)
// nothing will prevent kmem_cache_dup from
// succeeding so ...
cachep->memcg_params->memcg_caches[idx]=new_cachep
// we've overwritten an existing cache ptr!
Let's fix this by moving both the check and the update of
memcg_params::memcg_caches from memcg_create_kmem_cache() to
kmem_cache_create_memcg() to be called under the slab_mutex.
