net-memcg: Fix scope of sockmem pressure indicators

Now there are two indicators of socket memory pressure sit inside
struct mem_cgroup, socket_pressure and tcpmem_pressure, indicating
memory reclaim pressure in memcg->memory and ->tcpmem respectively.

When in legacy mode (cgroupv1), the socket memory is charged into
->tcpmem which is independent of ->memory, so socket_pressure has
nothing to do with socket's pressure at all. Things could be worse
by taking socket_pressure into consideration in legacy mode, as a
pressure in ->memory can lead to premature reclamation/throttling
in socket.

While for the default mode (cgroupv2), the socket memory is charged
into ->memory, and ->tcpmem/->tcpmem_pressure are simply not used.

So {socket,tcpmem}_pressure are only used in default/legacy mode
respectively for indicating socket memory pressure. This patch fixes
the pieces of code that make mixed use of both.

mm, memcg: add mem_cgroup_disabled checks in vmpressure and swap-related functions

Add mem_cgroup_disabled check in vmpressure, mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap and
cgroup_throttle_swaprate functions. This minimizes the memcg overhead in
the pagefault and exit_mmap paths when memcgs are disabled using
cgroup_disable=memory command-line option.

This change results in ~2.1% overhead reduction when running PFT test [1]
comparing {CONFIG_MEMCG=n, CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP=n} against {CONFIG_MEMCG=y,
CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP=y, cgroup_disable=memory} configuration on an 8-core
ARM64 Android device.

mm, vmpressure: pass-through notification support

By default, vmpressure events are not pass-through, i.e. they propagate
up through the memcg hierarchy until an event notifier is found for any
threshold level.

This presents a difficulty when a thread waiting on a read(2) for a
vmpressure event cannot distinguish between local memory pressure and
memory pressure in a descendant memcg, especially when that thread may
not control the memcg hierarchy.

Consider a user-controlled child memcg with a smaller limit than a
top-level memcg controlled by the "Activity Manager" specified in
Documentation/cgroup-v1/memory.txt. It may register for memory pressure
notification for descendant memcgs to make a policy decision: oom kill a
low priority job, increase the limit, decrease other limits, etc. If it
registers for memory pressure notification on the top-level memcg, it
currently cannot distinguish between memory pressure in its own memcg or
a descendant memcg, which is user-controlled.

Conversely, if a user registers for memory pressure notification on
their own descendant memcg, the Activity Manager does not receive any
pressure notification for that child memcg hierarchy. Vmpressure events
are not received for ancestor memcgs if the memcg experiencing pressure
have notifiers registered, perhaps outside the knowledge of the thread
waiting on read(2) at the top level.

Both of these are consequences of vmpressure notification not being
pass-through.

This implements a pass-through behavior for vmpressure events. When
writing to control.event_control, vmpressure event handlers may
optionally specify a mode. There are two new modes:

- "hierarchy": always propagate memory pressure events up the hierarchy
regardless if descendant memcgs have their own notifiers registered,
and

- "local": only receive notifications when the memcg for which the
event is registered experiences memory pressure.

Of course, processes may register for one notification of "low,local",
for example, and another for "low".

If no mode is specified, the current behavior is maintained for
backwards compatibility.

See the change to Documentation/cgroup-v1/memory.txt for full
specification.

mm: correct the comment when reclaimed pages exceed the scanned pages

Commit e1587a494540 ("mm: vmpressure: fix sending wrong events on

to the thp reclaim.

That is incorrect because THP will be spilt to normal page and loop
again, which will result in the scanned pages increment.

mm: vmpressure: fix sending wrong events on underflow

At the end of a window period, if the reclaimed pages is greater than
scanned, an unsigned underflow can result in a huge pressure value and
thus a critical event. Reclaimed pages is found to go higher than
scanned because of the addition of reclaimed slab pages to reclaimed in
shrink_node without a corresponding increment to scanned pages.

Minchan Kim mentioned that this can also happen in the case of a THP
page where the scanned is 1 and reclaimed could be 512.

mm: memcontrol: hook up vmpressure to socket pressure

Let the networking stack know when a memcg is under reclaim pressure so
that it can clamp its transmit windows accordingly.

Whenever the reclaim efficiency of a cgroup's LRU lists drops low enough
for a MEDIUM or HIGH vmpressure event to occur, assert a pressure state
in the socket and tcp memory code that tells it to curb consumption
growth from sockets associated with said control group.

Traditionally, vmpressure reports for the entire subtree of a memcg
under pressure, which drops useful information on the individual groups
reclaimed. However, it's too late to change the userinterface, so add a
second reporting mode that reports on the level of reclaim instead of at
the level of pressure, and use that report for sockets.

vmpressure events are naturally edge triggered, so for hysteresis assert
socket pressure for a second to allow for subsequent vmpressure events
to occur before letting the socket code return to normal.

This will likely need finetuning for a wider variety of workloads, but
for now stick to the vmpressure presets and keep hysteresis simple.

cgroup: make cftype->[un]register_event() deal with cgroup_subsys_state instead of cgroup

cgroup is in the process of converting to css (cgroup_subsys_state)
from cgroup as the principal subsystem interface handle. This is
mostly to prepare for the unified hierarchy support where css's will
be created and destroyed dynamically but also helps cleaning up
subsystem implementations as css is usually what they are interested
in anyway.

cftype->[un]register_event() is among the remaining couple interfaces
which still use struct cgroup. Convert it to cgroup_subsys_state.
The conversion is mostly mechanical and removes the last users of
mem_cgroup_from_cont() and cg_to_vmpressure(), which are removed.

v2: indentation update as suggested by Li Zefan.

cgroup: pass around cgroup_subsys_state instead of cgroup in file methods

cgroup is currently in the process of transitioning to using struct
cgroup_subsys_state * as the primary handle instead of struct cgroup.
Please see the previous commit which converts the subsystem methods
for rationale.

This patch converts all cftype file operations to take @css instead of
@cgroup. cftypes for the cgroup core files don't have their subsytem
pointer set. These will automatically use the dummy_css added by the
previous patch and can be converted the same way.

Most subsystem conversions are straight forwards but there are some
interesting ones.

* freezer: update_if_frozen() is also converted to take @css instead
of @cgroup for consistency. This will make the code look simpler
too once iterators are converted to use css.

* memory/vmpressure: mem_cgroup_from_css() needs to be exported to
vmpressure while mem_cgroup_from_cont() can be made static.
Updated accordingly.

* cpu: cgroup_tg() doesn't have any user left. Removed.

* cpuacct: cgroup_ca() doesn't have any user left. Removed.

* hugetlb: hugetlb_cgroup_form_cgroup() doesn't have any user left.
Removed.

* net_cls: cgrp_cls_state() doesn't have any user left. Removed.

cgroup: s/cgroup_subsys_state/cgroup_css/ s/task_subsys_state/task_css/

The names of the two struct cgroup_subsys_state accessors -
cgroup_subsys_state() and task_subsys_state() - are somewhat awkward.
The former clashes with the type name and the latter doesn't even
indicate it's somehow related to cgroup.

We're about to revamp large portion of cgroup API, so, let's rename
them so that they're less awkward. Most per-controller usages of the
accessors are localized in accessor wrappers and given the amount of
scheduled changes, this isn't gonna add any noticeable headache.

Rename cgroup_subsys_state() to cgroup_css() and task_subsys_state()
to task_css(). This patch is pure rename.
