It waits for an rcu grace period, after which all children kmem_caches should be deactivated. During the deactivation percpu_ref_kill() is called for non root kmem_cache refcounters, but it requires yet another rcu grace period to finish the transition to the atomic (dead) state. So in a rare case when not all children kmem_caches are destroyed at the moment when the root kmem_cache is about to be gone, we need to wait another rcu grace period before destroying the root kmem_cache. This issue can be triggered only with dynamically created kmem_caches which are used with memcg accounting. In this case per-memcg child kmem_caches are created. They are deactivated from the cgroup removing path. If the destruction of the root kmem_cache is racing with the removal of the cgroup (both are quite complicated multi-stage processes), the described issue can occur. The only known way to trigger it in the real life, is to unload some kernel module which creates a dedicated kmem_cache, used from different memory cgroups with GFP_ACCOUNT flag. If the unloading happens immediately after calling rmdir on the corresponding cgroup, there is some chance to trigger the issue. v2: added a note to the commit log, proposed by Michal Hocko Reported-by: Christian Borntraeger Tested-by: Christian Borntraeger Fixes: f0a3a24b532d ("mm: memcg/slab: rework non-root kmem_cache lifecycle management") Signed-off-by: Roman Gushchin Reviewed-by: Shakeel Butt Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org --- mm/slab_common.c | 12 ++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+) diff --git a/mm/slab_common.c b/mm/slab_common.c index 8afa188f6e20..f0ab6d4ceb4c 100644 --- a/mm/slab_common.c +++ b/mm/slab_common.c @@ -904,6 +904,18 @@ static void flush_memcg_workqueue(struct kmem_cache *s) * previous workitems on workqueue are processed. */ flush_workqueue(memcg_kmem_cache_wq); + + /* + * If we're racing with children kmem_cache deactivation, it might + * take another rcu grace period to complete their destruction. + * At this moment the corresponding percpu_ref_kill() call should be + * done, but it might take another rcu grace period to complete + * switching to the atomic mode. + * Please, note that we check without grabbing the slab_mutex.
