Subject: [RFC PATCH net-next] sock: Propose socket.urgent for sockmem isolation

This is just a PoC patch intended to resume the discussion about
tcpmem isolation opened by Google in LPC'22 [1].

We are facing the same problem that the global shared threshold can
cause isolation issues. Low priority jobs can hog TCP memory and
adversely impact higher priority jobs. What's worse is that these
low priority jobs usually have smaller cpu weights leading to poor
ability to consume rx data.

To tackle this problem, an interface for non-root cgroup memory
controller named 'socket.urgent' is proposed. It determines whether
the sockets of this cgroup and its descendants can escape from the
constrains or not under global socket memory pressure.

The 'urgent' semantics will not take effect under memcg pressure in
order to protect against worse memstalls, thus will be the same as
before without this patch.

This proposal doesn't remove protocal's threshold as we found it
useful in restraining memory defragment. As aforementioned the low
priority jobs can hog lots of memory, which is unreclaimable and
unmovable, for some time due to small cpu weight.

So in practice we allow high priority jobs with net-memcg accounting
enabled to escape the global constrains if the net-memcg itselt is
not under pressure. While for lower priority jobs, the budget will
be tightened as the memory usage of 'urgent' jobs increases. In this
way we can finally achieve:

  - Important jobs won't be priority inversed by the background
    jobs in terms of socket memory pressure/limit.

  - Global constrains are still effective, but only on non-urgent
    jobs, useful for admins on policy decision on defrag.

Comments/Ideas are welcomed, thanks!
