mm: memcontrol: prepare for reparenting LRU pages for lruvec lock
The following diagram illustrates how to ensure the safety of the folio
lruvec lock when LRU folios undergo reparenting.
In the folio_lruvec_lock(folio) function:
rcu_read_lock();
retry:
lruvec = folio_lruvec(folio);
/* There is a possibility of folio reparenting at this point. */
spin_lock(&lruvec->lru_lock);
if (unlikely(lruvec_memcg(lruvec) != folio_memcg(folio))) {
/*
* The wrong lruvec lock was acquired, and a retry is required.
* This is because the folio resides on the parent memcg lruvec
* list.
*/
spin_unlock(&lruvec->lru_lock);
goto retry;
}
/* Reaching here indicates that folio_memcg() is stable. */
In the memcg_reparent_objcgs(memcg) function:
spin_lock(&lruvec->lru_lock);
spin_lock(&lruvec_parent->lru_lock);
/* Transfer folios from the lruvec list to the parent's. */
spin_unlock(&lruvec_parent->lru_lock);
spin_unlock(&lruvec->lru_lock);
After acquiring the lruvec lock, it is necessary to verify whether the
folio has been reparented. If reparenting has occurred, the new lruvec
lock must be reacquired. During the LRU folio reparenting process, the
lruvec lock will also be acquired (this will be implemented in a
subsequent patch). Therefore, folio_memcg() remains unchanged while the
lruvec lock is held.
Given that lruvec_memcg(lruvec) is always equal to folio_memcg(folio)
after the lruvec lock is acquired, the lruvec_memcg_debug() check is
redundant. Hence, it is removed.
This patch serves as a preparation for the reparenting of LRU folios.
