v5.13-rc1 sometimes causes NULL pointer dereference during kdump, where
memcg is disabled with "cgroup_disable=memory" boot option.
I haven't seen this problem with v5.12, so it looks like regression.

The code around do_shrink_slab+0x85 is:

0xffffffff9d094936 <do_shrink_slab+0x76>: and $0x4,%edx

0xffffffff9d094943 <do_shrink_slab+0x83>: xor %edx,%edx
0xffffffff9d094945 <do_shrink_slab+0x85>: xchg %rdx,(%rcx,%rax,8)
The NULL dereference occurred at here in in-lined xchg_nr_deferred():
return atomic_long_xchg(&shrinker->nr_deferred[nid], 0);
that means "shrinker->nr_deferred" was NULL.
Though I haven't fully bisected between v5.12 and v5.13-rc1, I can reproduce
the problem with this commit:
476b30a0949a mm: vmscan: don't need allocate shrinker->nr_deferred for memcg aware shrinkers
but not with this previous commit:
867508304685 mm: vmscan: use per memcg nr_deferred of shrinker
With the commit 476b30a0949a, if a memcg-aware shrinker is registered before
cgroup_init(), shrinker->nr_deferred is NULL. However xchg_nr_deferred()
tries to use it as memcg is turned off via "cgroup_disable=memory".
Any thoughts?

Is there a way to find the call chain of "memcg-aware shrinker is
registered before cgroup_init()"?
Irrespective I think we can revert a3e72739b7a7e ("cgroup: fix too
early usage of static_branch_disable()") as 6041186a3258 ("init:
initialize jump labels before command line option parsing") has moved
the initialization of jump labels before command line parsing.

Thanks for the report.

Other than adding some printk in prealloc_memcg_shrinker() then
checking out the output of dmesg I didn't think of a better way. Not
sure if we have something like early trace.

Seems make sense to me. If some memcg aware shrinker is registered
before cgroup_init(), the mem_cgroup_disabled() check in
prealloc_memcg_shrinker() would return false negative. And I don't
think any shrinker could be registered before parsing boot
commandline.

This is the first registration of memcg-aware shrinker:

That is done after command line parsing but before cgroup_init.

Thank you. Shakeel 's patch works for me:
[PATCH] cgroup: disable controllers at parse time

Thanks for sharing the log. I was not aware that shmem is initialized
and mounted so early.
