[PATCH v2 0/4] memcg: shrink obj_stock_pcp and cache multiple objcgs

[PATCH v2 0/4] memcg: shrink obj_stock_pcp and cache multiple objcgs

[Shakeel Butt]

Commit 01b9da291c49 ("mm: memcontrol: convert objcg to be per-memcg
per-node type") split a memcg's single obj_cgroup into one per NUMA
node so that reparenting LRU folios can take per-node lru locks. As a
side effect, the per-CPU obj_stock_pcp -- which caches a single
cached_objcg pointer -- thrashes on workloads where threads of the
same memcg run on different NUMA nodes. The kernel test robot reported
a 67.7% regression on stress-ng.switch.ops_per_sec from this pattern.

Commit d0211878ce06 ("memcg: cache obj_stock by memcg, not by objcg
pointer") landed as a temporary fix by treating sibling per-node
objcgs as equivalent for the cache lookup, intended to be reverted
once per-node kmem accounting is introduced. This series takes a more
general approach: cache multiple objcgs per CPU using the multi-slot
pattern memcg_stock_pcp already uses, so the per-node objcg variants
of one memcg can all coexist in the stock without ever forcing a
drain. The temporary fix can then be reverted.

To avoid increasing the per-CPU cache footprint, the first three
patches shrink the existing single-slot obj_stock_pcp fields.
The final patch converts cached_objcg and nr_bytes into
NR_OBJ_STOCK=5 slot arrays and reorders the struct so the entire
consume/refill/account hot path fits within a single 64-byte cache
line on non-debug 64-bit builds (verified with pahole).

[PATCH v2 1/4] memcg: store node_id instead of pglist_data pointer

[Shakeel Butt]

The struct obj_stock_pcp stores a pointer to pglist_data for the slab
stats cached on the cpu. On 64-bit machines, this costs 8 bytes. The
pointer is not strictly required: NODE_DATA() can recover it from the
node id. Replace cached_pgdat with int16_t node_id and use NUMA_NO_NODE
as the "no stats cached" sentinel.

At the moment all the archs limit MAX_NUMNODES to 1024 so int16_t is
plenty; a BUILD_BUG_ON() makes sure we notice if that ever changes.

[PATCH v2 2/4] memcg: uint16_t for nr_bytes in obj_stock_pcp

[Shakeel Butt]

Currently struct obj_stock_pcp stores nr_bytes in an 'unsigned int'
which is 4 bytes on 64-bit machines. Switch the field to uint16_t to
shrink the per-CPU cache.

The kernel supports PAGE_SIZE_4KB, _8KB, _16KB, _32KB, _64KB and
_256KB (see HAVE_PAGE_SIZE_* in arch/Kconfig). After the
PAGE_SIZE-aligned flush in __refill_obj_stock(), the sub-page
remainder fits in uint16_t up through 64KiB pages where PAGE_SIZE - 1
== U16_MAX, but on 256KiB pages PAGE_SIZE - 1 == 0x3FFFF exceeds
U16_MAX. The accumulator also needs to stay within uint16_t between
page-aligned flushes on 64KiB pages where PAGE_SIZE itself is
U16_MAX + 1.

Accumulate the new total in an 'unsigned int' local, then:

  1. Flush whenever the accumulator would hit U16_MAX. Together with
     the existing allow_uncharge flush at PAGE_SIZE, this keeps the
     uint16_t safe on PAGE_SIZE <= 64KiB.

  2. On configs with PAGE_SHIFT > 16 (PAGE_SIZE_256KB on hexagon and
     powerpc 44x), push any sub-page remainder above U16_MAX into
     objcg->nr_charged_bytes via atomic_add before storing back, so
     the store cannot silently truncate. The PAGE_SHIFT > 16 guard
     folds the branch out at compile time on smaller page sizes.

[PATCH v2 3/4] memcg: int16_t for cached slab stats

[Shakeel Butt]

Currently struct obj_stock_pcp stores cached slab stats in 'int' which
is 4 bytes per counter on 64-bit machines. Switch them to int16_t to
shrink the cached metadata.

The existing PAGE_SIZE flush in __account_obj_stock() bounds *bytes at
PAGE_SIZE on 4KiB and 16KiB page archs, well within int16_t. On 64KiB
pages PAGE_SIZE is well above S16_MAX so that flush never fires, and a
sufficiently long run of accumulations would overflow the cache. Add
an explicit S16_MAX guard before each add: when the next add would
push abs(*bytes) past S16_MAX, fold the cached value into @nr and
flush directly via mod_objcg_mlstate() before the accumulation.

[PATCH v2 4/4] memcg: multi objcg charge support

[Shakeel Butt]

Commit 01b9da291c49 ("mm: memcontrol: convert objcg to be per-memcg
per-node type") split a memcg's single obj_cgroup into one per NUMA
node so that reparenting LRU folios can take per-node lru locks. As a
side effect, the per-CPU obj_stock_pcp -- which caches exactly one
cached_objcg -- thrashes on workloads where threads of the same memcg
run on different NUMA nodes. The kernel test robot reported a 67.7%
regression on stress-ng.switch.ops_per_sec from this pattern.

Mirror the multi-slot pattern already used by memcg_stock_pcp: turn
nr_bytes and cached_objcg into NR_OBJ_STOCK-element arrays, scan all
slots on consume/refill/account, prefer empty slots when inserting,
and evict a random slot only when full. With multiple slots a CPU can
hold the per-node objcg variants of one memcg plus a few siblings
without ever forcing a drain.

A single int8_t index records which slot the cached slab stats belong
to; the stats are flushed on slot or pgdat change. With NR_OBJ_STOCK
= 5 the layout (verified with pahole) is:

  offset 0  : lock(1) + index(1) + node_id(2) + slab stats(4) = 8B
  offset 8  : nr_bytes[5]                                     = 10B
  offset 18 : padding                                         = 6B
  offset 24 : cached[5]                                       = 40B
  offset 64 : (line 2) work_struct + flags (cold)

so consume_obj_stock, refill_obj_stock and the slab account path each
touch exactly one 64-byte cache line on non-debug 64-bit builds.

I think you should do the add first:
	nr += *bytes;
	if (abs(nr) < S16_MAX && (!*bytes || abs(nr) < PAGE_SIZE)) {
		*bytes = nr;
	} else {
		*bytes = 0;
		mod_objcg_mlstate(objcg, pgdat, idx, nr);
	}
