Subject: [PATCH v2] mm: memcg-v1: fix memsw and TCP failcnt accounting
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2026 11:08:43 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260811030843.109104-1-guopeng.zhang@linux.dev> (raw)

From: Guopeng Zhang <zhangguopeng@kylinos.cn>

Commit 0e2759afcaf9 ("page_counter: track failcnt only for legacy
cgroups") made failcnt accounting conditional on track_failcnt. It
enabled the flag for memcg->memory, but not for memcg->memsw or
memcg->tcpmem.

Consequently, memory.memsw.failcnt remains zero when the memory+swap
limit is hit. memory.kmem.tcp.limit_in_bytes still sets
memcg->tcpmem.max, but TCP charge failures are not reflected in
memory.kmem.tcp.failcnt.

Enable failcnt accounting for both v1 counters.

To reproduce memory.memsw.failcnt:

    CG=/sys/fs/cgroup/memory/memsw-test
    LIMIT=33554432
    mkdir "$CG"
    echo "$LIMIT" > "$CG/memory.limit_in_bytes"
    echo "$LIMIT" > "$CG/memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes"

Start a child process in the cgroup and make it allocate and touch 96 MiB
of memory, causing a memcg OOM.

    cat "$CG/memory.memsw.failcnt"

Without the patch, memory.memsw.failcnt is 0. With the patch,
memory.memsw.failcnt is greater than 0.

To reproduce memory.kmem.tcp.failcnt:

    CG=/sys/fs/cgroup/memory/tcpmem-test
    LIMIT=65536
    mkdir "$CG"
    echo "$LIMIT" > "$CG/memory.kmem.tcp.limit_in_bytes"

Start a child process in the cgroup, create a TCP socket, and reserve
1 MiB of socket memory with SO_RESERVE_MEM. The reservation fails with
ENOMEM.

    cat "$CG/memory.kmem.tcp.failcnt"

Without the patch, memory.kmem.tcp.failcnt is 0. With the patch,
memory.kmem.tcp.failcnt is greater than 0.
