Subject: [PATCH] mm, memcg: sync allocation and memcg charge gfp flags for THP
memcg currently uses hardcoded GFP_TRANSHUGE gfp flags for all THP
charges. THP allocations, however, might be using different flags
depending on /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/{,khugepaged/}defrag
and the current allocation context.
The primary difference is that defrag configured to "madvise" value will
clear __GFP_WAIT flag from the core gfp mask to make the allocation
lighter for all mappings which are not backed by VM_HUGEPAGE vmas.
If memcg charge path ignores this fact we will get light allocation but
the a potential memcg reclaim would kill the whole point of the
configuration.
Fix the mismatch by providing the same gfp mask used for the
allocation to the charge functions. This is quite easy for all
paths except for hugepaged kernel thread with !CONFIG_NUMA which is
doing a pre-allocation long before the allocated page is used in
collapse_huge_page via khugepaged_alloc_page. To prevent from cluttering
the whole code path from khugepaged_do_scan we simply return the current
flags as per khugepaged_defrag() value which might have changed since
the preallocation. If somebody changed the value of the knob we would
charge differently but this shouldn't happen often and it is definitely
not critical because it would only lead to a reduced success rate of
one-off THP promotion.
