Subject: [PATCH v3 00/35] Memory allocation profiling

Memory allocation, v3 and final:

Overview:
Low overhead [1] per-callsite memory allocation profiling. Not just for debug
kernels, overhead low enough to be deployed in production.

We're aiming to get this in the next merge window, for 6.9. The feedback
we've gotten has been that even out of tree this patchset has already
been useful, and there's a significant amount of other work gated on the
code tagging functionality included in this patchset [2].

Example output:
  root@...ia-kvm:~# sort -h /proc/allocinfo|tail
   3.11MiB     2850 fs/ext4/super.c:1408 module:ext4 func:ext4_alloc_inode

    125MiB     7357 mm/slub.c:2201 module:slub func:alloc_slab_page

Since v2:
 - tglx noticed a circular header dependency between sched.h and percpu.h;
   a bunch of header cleanups were merged into 6.8 to ameliorate this [3].

 - a number of improvements, moving alloc_hooks() annotations to the
   correct place for better tracking (mempool), and bugfixes.

 - looked at alternate hooking methods.
   There were suggestions on alternate methods (compiler attribute,
   trampolines), but they wouldn't have made the patchset any cleaner
   (we still need to have different function versions for accounting vs. no
   accounting to control at which point in a call chain the accounting
   happens), and they would have added a dependency on toolchain
   support.

Usage:
kconfig options:
 - CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING
 - CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_ENABLED_BY_DEFAULT
 - CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG
   adds warnings for allocations that weren't accounted because of a
   missing annotation

sysctl:
  /proc/sys/vm/mem_profiling

Runtime info:
  /proc/allocinfo

Notes:

[1]: Overhead
To measure the overhead we are comparing the following configurations:
(1) Baseline with CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=n
(2) Disabled by default (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &&
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=n)
(3) Enabled by default (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &&
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=y)
(4) Enabled at runtime (CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING=y &&
    CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_BY_DEFAULT=n && /proc/sys/vm/mem_profiling=1)
(5) Baseline with CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=y && allocating with __GFP_ACCOUNT

Performance overhead:
To evaluate performance we implemented an in-kernel test executing
multiple get_free_page/free_page and kmalloc/kfree calls with allocation
sizes growing from 8 to 240 bytes with CPU frequency set to max and CPU
affinity set to a specific CPU to minimize the noise. Below are results
from running the test on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS with 6.8.0-rc1 kernel on
56 core Intel Xeon:

                        kmalloc                 pgalloc
(1 baseline)            6.764s                  16.902s
(2 default disabled)    6.793s (+0.43%)         17.007s (+0.62%)
(3 default enabled)     7.197s (+6.40%)         23.666s (+40.02%)
(4 runtime enabled)     7.405s (+9.48%)         23.901s (+41.41%)
(5 memcg)               13.388s (+97.94%)       48.460s (+186.71%)

Memory overhead:
Kernel size:

   text           data        bss         dec         diff
(1) 26515311	      18890222    17018880    62424413
(2) 26524728	      19423818    16740352    62688898    264485
(3) 26524724	      19423818    16740352    62688894    264481
(4) 26524728	      19423818    16740352    62688898    264485
(5) 26541782	      18964374    16957440    62463596    39183

Memory consumption on a 56 core Intel CPU with 125GB of memory:
Code tags:           192 kB
PageExts:         262144 kB (256MB)
SlabExts:           9876 kB (9.6MB)
PcpuExts:            512 kB (0.5MB)

Total overhead is 0.2% of total memory.

[2]: Improved fault injection is the big one; the alloc_hooks() macro
this patchset introduces is also used for per-callsite fault injection
points in the dynamic fault injection patchset, which means we can
easily do fault injection on a per module or per file basis; this makes
it much easier to integrate memory fault injection into existing tests.

Vlastimil recently raised concerns about exposing GFP_NOWAIT as a
PF_MEMALLOC_* flag, as this might introduce GFP_NOWAIT to allocation
paths that have never had their failure paths tested - this is something
we need to address.

[3]: The circular dependency looks to be unavoidable; the issue is that
alloc_tag_save() -> current -> get_current() requires percpu.h, and
percpu.h requires sched.h because of course it does. But this doesn't
actually cause build errors because we're only using macros, so the main
concern is just not leaving a difficult-to-disentangle minefield for
later.
So, sched.h is now pretty close to being a types only header that
imports types and declares types - this is the header cleanups that were
merged for 6.8.
