Subject: [PATCH v3 5/5] memcg: make memcg_rstat_updated nmi safe
Date: Fri, 16 May 2025 11:32:31 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250516183231.1615590-6-shakeel.butt@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250516183231.1615590-1-shakeel.butt@linux.dev>

Currently kernel maintains memory related stats updates per-cgroup to
optimize stats flushing. The stats_updates is defined as atomic64_t
which is not nmi-safe on some archs. Actually we don't really need 64bit
atomic as the max value stats_updates can get should be less than
nr_cpus * MEMCG_CHARGE_BATCH. A normal atomic_t should suffice.

Also the function cgroup_rstat_updated() is still not nmi-safe but there
is parallel effort to make it nmi-safe, so until then let's ignore it in
the nmi context.
