INFO: lockdep is turned off.
In this example a slab allocation from __send_signal() caused a
refilling and draining of a percpu objcg stock, resulted in a releasing
of another non-related objcg. Objcg release path requires taking the
css_set_lock, which is used to synchronize objcg lists.
This can create a circular dependency with the sighandler lock, which is
taken with the locked css_set_lock by the freezer code (to freeze a
task).
In general it seems that using css_set_lock to synchronize objcg lists
makes any slab allocations and deallocation with the locked css_set_lock
and any intervened locks risky.
To fix the problem and make the code more robust let's stop using
css_set_lock to synchronize objcg lists and use a new dedicated spinlock
instead.

page->memcg_data is used with MEMCG_DATA_OBJCGS flag only for slab pages
so convert all the related infrastructure to struct slab. Also use
struct folio instead of struct page when resolving object pointers.
This is not just mechanistic changing of types and names. Now in
mem_cgroup_from_obj() we use folio_test_slab() to decide if we interpret
the folio as a real slab instead of a large kmalloc, instead of relying
on MEMCG_DATA_OBJCGS bit that used to be checked in page_objcgs_check().
Similarly in memcg_slab_free_hook() where we can encounter
kmalloc_large() pages (here the folio slab flag check is implied by
virt_to_slab()). As a result, page_objcgs_check() can be dropped instead
of converted.
To avoid include cycles, move the inline definition of slab_objcgs()
from memcontrol.h to mm/slab.h.

At the moment memcg stats are read in four contexts:
1. memcg stat user interfaces
2. dirty throttling
3. page fault
4. memory reclaim
Currently the kernel flushes the stats for first two cases. Flushing the
stats for remaining two casese may have performance impact. Always
flushing the memcg stats on the page fault code path may negatively
impacts the performance of the applications. In addition flushing in the
memory reclaim code path, though treated as slowpath, can become the
source of contention for the global lock taken for stat flushing because
when system or memcg is under memory pressure, many tasks may enter the
reclaim path.
This patch uses following mechanisms to solve these challenges:
1. Periodically flush the stats from root memcg every 2 seconds. This
will time limit the out of sync stats.
2. Asynchronously flush the stats after fixed number of stat updates.
In the worst case the stat can be out of sync by O(nr_cpus * BATCH) for
2 seconds.
3. For avoiding thundering herd to flush the stats particularly from
the memory reclaim context, introduce memcg local spinlock and let only
one flusher active at a time. This could have been done through
cgroup_rstat_lock lock but that lock is used by other subsystem and for
userspace reading memcg stats. So, it is better to keep flushers
introduced by this patch decoupled from cgroup_rstat_lock. However we
would have to use irqsafe version of rstat flush but that is fine as
this code path will be flushing for whole tree and do the work for
everyone. No one will be waiting for that worker.

The commit 2d146aa3aa ("mm: memcontrol: switch to rstat") switched memcg
stats to rstat infrastructure but skipped the conversion of the lruvec
stats as such stats are read in the performance critical code paths and
flushing stats may have impacted the performances of the applications.
This patch converts the lruvec stats to rstat and later patches add
mechanisms to keep the performance impact to minimum.
The rstat conversion comes with the price i.e. memory cost. Effectively
this patch reverts the savings done by the commit f3344adf38 ("mm:
memcontrol: optimize per-lruvec stats counter memory usage"). However
this cost is justified due to negative impact of the inaccurate lruvec
stats on many heuristics. One such case is reported in [1].
The memory reclaim code is filled with plethora of heuristics and many of
those heuristics reads the lruvec stats. So, inaccurate stats can make
such heuristics ineffective. [1] reports the impact of inaccurate lruvec
stats on the "cache trim mode" heuristic. Inaccurate lruvec stats can
impact the deactivation and aging anon heuristics as well.
