Subject: [PATCH] mm/munlock: add lru_add_drain() to fix memcg_stat_test
Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2022 14:44:11 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <47f6d39c-a075-50cb-1cfb-26dd957a48af@google.com> (raw)

Mike reports that LTP memcg_stat_test usually leads to...
memcg_stat_test 3 TINFO: Test unevictable with MAP_LOCKED
memcg_stat_test 3 TINFO: Running memcg_process --mmap-lock1 -s 135168
memcg_stat_test 3 TINFO: Warming up pid: 3460
memcg_stat_test 3 TINFO: Process is still here after warm up: 3460
memcg_stat_test 3 TFAIL: unevictable is 122880, 135168 expected
...but may lead to...
memcg_stat_test 4 TINFO: Test unevictable with mlock
memcg_stat_test 4 TINFO: Running memcg_process --mmap-lock2 -s 135168
memcg_stat_test 4 TINFO: Warming up pid: 4271
memcg_stat_test 4 TINFO: Process is still here after warm up: 4271
memcg_stat_test 4 TFAIL: unevictable is 122880, 135168 expected
...or both.  A wee bit flaky.

follow_page_pte() used to have an lru_add_drain() per each page mlocked,
and the test came to rely on accurate stats.  The pagevec to be drained
is different now, but still covered by lru_add_drain(); and, never mind
the test, I believe it's in everyone's interest that a bulk faulting
interface like populate_vma_page_range() or faultin_vma_page_range()
should drain its local pagevecs at the end, to save others sometimes
needing the much more expensive lru_add_drain_all().  This does not
absolutely guarantee exact stats - the mlocking task can be migrated
between CPUs as it proceeds - but it's good enough and the tests pass.

One can argue about the Fixes tag - I'd have chosen the pagevec commit,
but this is the one Mike identified, and the one which touches mm/gup.c,
so I'm happy to go with this - and doesn't matter so long as 5.18 gets it.
