This approach has its downside

Merge branch 'switch to memcg-based memory accounting'

Roman Gushchin says:

====================

Currently bpf is using the memlock rlimit for the memory accounting.
This approach has its downsides and over time has created a significant
amount of problems:

1) The limit is per-user, but because most bpf operations are performed
as root, the limit has a little value.

2) It's hard to come up with a specific maximum value. Especially because
the counter is shared with non-bpf use cases (e.g. memlock()).
Any specific value is either too low and creates false failures
or is too high and useless.

3) Charging is not connected to the actual memory allocation. Bpf code
should manually calculate the estimated cost and charge the counter,
and then take care of uncharging, including all fail paths.
It adds to the code complexity and makes it easy to leak a charge.

4) There is no simple way of getting the current value of the counter.
We've used drgn for it, but it's far from being convenient.

5) Cryptic -EPERM is returned on exceeding the limit. Libbpf even had
a function to "explain" this case for users.

6) rlimits are generally considered as (at least partially) obsolete.
They do not provide a comprehensive system for the control of physical
resources: memory, cpu, io etc. All resource control developments
in the recent years were related to cgroups.

In order to overcome these problems let's switch to the memory cgroup-based
memory accounting of bpf objects. With the recent addition of the percpu
memory accounting, now it's possible to provide a comprehensive accounting
of the memory used by bpf programs and maps.

This approach has the following advantages:
1) The limit is per-cgroup and hierarchical. It's way more flexible and allows
a better control over memory usage by different workloads.

2) The actual memory consumption is taken into account. It happens automatically
on the allocation time if __GFP_ACCOUNT flags is passed. Uncharging is also
performed automatically on releasing the memory. So the code on the bpf side
becomes simpler and safer.

3) There is a simple way to get the current value and statistics.

Cgroup-based accounting adds new requirements:
1) The kernel config should have CONFIG_CGROUPS and CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM enabled.
These options are usually enabled, maybe excluding tiny builds for embedded
devices.
2) The system should have a configured cgroup hierarchy, including reasonable
memory limits and/or guarantees. Modern systems usually delegate this task
to systemd or similar task managers.

Without meeting these requirements there are no limits on how much memory bpf
can use and a non-root user is able to hurt the system by allocating too much.
But because per-user rlimits do not provide a functional system to protect
and manage physical resources anyway, anyone who seriously depends on it,
should use cgroups.

When a bpf map is created, the memory cgroup of the process which creates
the map is recorded. Subsequently all memory allocation related to the bpf map
are charged to the same cgroup. It includes allocations made from interrupts
and by any processes. Bpf program memory is charged to the memory cgroup of
a process which loads the program.

The patchset consists of the following parts:
1) 4 mm patches are required on the mm side, otherwise vmallocs cannot be mapped
to userspace
2) memcg-based accounting for various bpf objects: progs and maps
3) removal of the rlimit-based accounting
4) removal of rlimit adjustments in userspace samples

v9:
- always charge the saved memory cgroup, by Daniel, Toke and Alexei
- added bpf_map_kzalloc()
- rebase and minor fixes

v8:
- extended the cover letter to be more clear on new requirements, by Daniel
- an approximate value is provided by map memlock info, by Alexei

v7:
- introduced bpf_map_kmalloc_node() and bpf_map_alloc_percpu(), by Alexei
- switched allocations made from an interrupt context to new helpers,
by Daniel
- rebase and minor fixes

- rebased to the latest version of the remote charging API
- fixed signatures, added acks

v5:
- rebased to the latest version of the remote charging API
- implemented kmem accounting from an interrupt context, by Shakeel
- rebased to latest changes in mm allowed to map vmallocs to userspace
- fixed a build issue in kselftests, by Alexei
- fixed a use-after-free bug in bpf_map_free_deferred()
- added bpf line info coverage, by Shakeel
- split bpf map charging preparations into a separate patch

v4:
- covered allocations made from an interrupt context, by Daniel
- added some clarifications to the cover letter

v3:
- droped the userspace part for further discussions/refinements,
by Andrii and Song

v2:
- fixed build issue, caused by the remaining rlimit-based accounting
for sockhash maps

mm: memcontrol: Use helpers to read page's memcg data

Patch series "mm: allow mapping accounted kernel pages to userspace", v6.

Currently a non-slab kernel page which has been charged to a memory cgroup
can't be mapped to userspace. The underlying reason is simple: PageKmemcg
flag is defined as a page type (like buddy, offline, etc), so it takes a
bit from a page->mapped counter. Pages with a type set can't be mapped to
userspace.

But in general the kmemcg flag has nothing to do with mapping to
userspace. It only means that the page has been accounted by the page
allocator, so it has to be properly uncharged on release.

Some bpf maps are mapping the vmalloc-based memory to userspace, and their
memory can't be accounted because of this implementation detail.

This patchset removes this limitation by moving the PageKmemcg flag into
one of the free bits of the page->mem_cgroup pointer. Also it formalizes
accesses to the page->mem_cgroup and page->obj_cgroups using new helpers,
adds several checks and removes a couple of obsolete functions. As the
result the code became more robust with fewer open-coded bit tricks.

This patch (of 4):

Currently there are many open-coded reads of the page->mem_cgroup pointer,
as well as a couple of read helpers, which are barely used.

It creates an obstacle on a way to reuse some bits of the pointer for
storing additional bits of information. In fact, we already do this for
slab pages, where the last bit indicates that a pointer has an attached
vector of objcg pointers instead of a regular memcg pointer.

This commits uses 2 existing helpers and introduces a new helper to
converts all read sides to calls of these helpers:
struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg(struct page *page);
struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg_rcu(struct page *page);
struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg_check(struct page *page);

page_memcg_check() is intended to be used in cases when the page can be a
slab page and have a memcg pointer pointing at objcg vector. It does
check the lowest bit, and if set, returns NULL. page_memcg() contains a
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() check for the page not being a slab page.

To make sure nobody uses a direct access, struct page's
mem_cgroup/obj_cgroups is converted to unsigned long memcg_data.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"There's quite a lot of code here, but much of it is due to the
addition of a new PMU driver as well as some arm64-specific selftests
which is an area where we've traditionally been lagging a bit.

In terms of exciting features, this includes support for the Memory
Tagging Extension which narrowly missed 5.9, hopefully allowing
userspace to run with use-after-free detection in production on CPUs
that support it. Work is ongoing to integrate the feature with KASAN
for 5.11.

Another change that I'm excited about (assuming they get the hardware
right) is preparing the ASID allocator for sharing the CPU page-table
with the SMMU. Those changes will also come in via Joerg with the
IOMMU pull.

We do stray outside of our usual directories in a few places, mostly
due to core changes required by MTE. Although much of this has been
Acked, there were a couple of places where we unfortunately didn't get
any review feedback.

Other than that, we ran into a handful of minor conflicts in -next,
but nothing that should post any issues.

Summary:

- Userspace support for the Memory Tagging Extension introduced by
Armv8.5. Kernel support (via KASAN) is likely to follow in 5.11.

- Selftests for MTE, Pointer Authentication and FPSIMD/SVE context
switching.

- Fix and subsequent rewrite of our Spectre mitigations, including
the addition of support for PR_SPEC_DISABLE_NOEXEC.

- Support for the Armv8.3 Pointer Authentication enhancements.

- Support for ASID pinning, which is required when sharing
page-tables with the SMMU.

- MM updates, including treating flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() as a
no-op.

- Perf/PMU driver updates, including addition of the ARM CMN PMU
driver and also support to handle CPU PMU IRQs as NMIs.

- Allow prefetchable PCI BARs to be exposed to userspace using normal
non-cacheable mappings.

- Implementation of ARCH_STACKWALK for unwinding.

- Improve reporting of unexpected kernel traps due to BPF JIT
failure.

- Improve robustness of user-visible HWCAP strings and their
corresponding numerical constants.

- Removal of TEXT_OFFSET.

- Removal of some unused functions, parameters and prototypes.

- Removal of MPIDR-based topology detection in favour of firmware
description.

- Cleanups to handling of SVE and FPSIMD register state in
preparation for potential future optimisation of handling across
syscalls.
