When I use kfree_rcu() to free a large memory allocated by
kmalloc_node(), the following dump occurs.

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000020

When kmalloc_node() a large memory, page is allocated, not slab,
so when freeing memory via kfree_rcu(), this large memory should not
be used by memcg_slab_free_hook(), because memcg_slab_free_hook() is
is used for slab.

So in this case, there is no need to do anything with this large
page in memcg_slab_free_hook(), just skip it.

Are you sure that this commit is really breaking the code. Unless I have
missed something there shouldn't be any real change wrt. large
allocations here. page_has_obj_cgroups is just a different name for what
what page_objcgs is giving us.

I haven't studied the kfree_rcu part but isn't the problem its use of
kmem_cache_free_bulk or isn't the problem right there in the bulk free?

BUG_ON is not really a good idea here. Why should we crash the kernel
just because of an unexpected page showing up. Leaking it would be more
appropriate (the same would apply to kfree btw). I would just warn
here. Also don't we need any hookd here.  Looking at kfree path it does
call kfree_hook. Why is that not needed here?

Actually they are different. For MEMCG_DATA_KMEM page,
page_has_obj_cgroups() will return false while page_objcgs() on
non-VM_DEBUG kernels will return "struct obj_cgroup *" instead of
"struct obj_cgroup **".

SLUB's kmem_cache_free_bulk() is doing two passes. In first pass
uncharges all the objects and in the second pass frees them to the
slub infra. There is nothing wrong with that. It is just that SLUB
mixes page (for higher order) and slab allocations and requires
special handling.

The simplest fix would be to not call memcg_slab_free_hook() in
kmem_cache_free_bulk() because slab_free() will call
memcg_slab_free_hook() for individual objects. Not sure if there will
be any performance impact.

These are called later in build_detached_freelist().

maybe we could simply use page_objcgs_check to fix the issue ? we will 
check it again.

the same logical is in build_detached_freelist()

You will see the same crash with page_objcgs_check as well.

I just test it. It won't crash.

node = kmalloc_node(299999, GFP_ATOMIC | __GFP_NOWARN | __GFP_ACCOUNT, -1);
kfree_rcu(node, rcu);
