memcg: charge fs_context and legacy_fs_context
This patch adds accounting flags to fs_context and legacy_fs_context allocation sites so that kernel could correctly charge these objects. We have written a PoC to demonstrate the effect of the missing-charging bugs. The PoC takes around 1,200MB unaccounted memory, while it is charged for only 362MB memory usage. We evaluate the PoC on QEMU x86_64 v5.2.90 + Linux kernel v5.10.19 + Debian buster. All the limitations including ulimits and sysctl variables are set as default. Specifically, the hard NOFILE limit and nr_open in sysctl are both 1,048,576. /*------------------------- POC code ----------------------------*/ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/file.h> #include <time.h> #include <sys/wait.h> #include <stdint.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <signal.h> #include <sched.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <linux/mount.h> #define errExit(msg) do { perror(msg); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); \ } while (0) #define STACK_SIZE (8 * 1024) #ifndef __NR_fsopen #define __NR_fsopen 430 #endif static inline int fsopen(const char *fs_name, unsigned int flags) { return syscall(__NR_fsopen, fs_name, flags); } static char thread_stack[512][STACK_SIZE]; int thread_fn(void* arg) { for (int i = 0; i< 800000; ++i) { int fsfd = fsopen("nfs", FSOPEN_CLOEXEC); if (fsfd == -1) { errExit("fsopen"); } } while(1); return 0; } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int thread_pid; for (int i = 0; i < 1; ++i) { thread_pid = clone(thread_fn, thread_stack[i] + STACK_SIZE, \ SIGCHLD, NULL); } while(1); return 0; } /*-------------------------- end --------------------------------*/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1626517201-24086-1-git-send-email-nglaive@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Yutian Yang <nglaive@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Shakeel Butt <shakeelb@google.com> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov.dev@gmail.com> Cc: <shenwenbo@zju.edu.cn> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
