Subject: [PATCH] mm: rework remote memcg charging API to support nesting
Currently the remote memcg charging API consists of two functions:
memalloc_use_memcg() and memalloc_unuse_memcg(), which set and clear
the memcg value, which overwrites the memcg of the current task.
memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg);
<...>
memalloc_unuse_memcg();
It works perfectly for allocations performed from a normal context,
however an attempt to call it from an interrupt context or just nest
two remote charging blocks will lead to an incorrect accounting.
On exit from the inner block the active memcg will be cleared
instead of being restored.
memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg);
memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg_2);
<...>
memalloc_unuse_memcg();
Error: allocation here are charged to the memcg of the current
process instead of target_memcg.
memalloc_unuse_memcg();
This patch extends the remote charging API by switching to a single
function: struct mem_cgroup *set_active_memcg(struct mem_cgroup *memcg),
which sets the new value and returns the old one. So a remote charging
block will look like:
old_memcg = set_active_memcg(target_memcg);
<...>
set_active_memcg(old_memcg);
This patch is heavily based on the patch by Johannes Weiner,
which can be found here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/5/28/806 .
