However it doesn't matter whether the cgroup is online for the callers. Online used to matter when we had reparenting on offlining and we needed a way to prevent new ones from showing up. The failure case for couple of these css_tryget_online usage is to fallback to root_mem_cgroup which kind of make bypassing the memcg limits possible for some workloads. For example creating an inotify group in a subcontainer and then deleting that container after moving the process to a different container will make all the event objects allocated for that group to the root_mem_cgroup. So, using css_tryget_online() is dangerous for such cases. Two locations still use the online version. The swapin of offlined memcg's pages and the memcg kmem cache creation. The kmem cache indeed needs the online version as the kernel does the reparenting of memcg kmem caches. For the swapin case, it has been left for later as the fallback is not really that concerning. With swap accounting enabled, if the memcg of the swapped out page is not online then the memcg extracted from the given 'mm' will be charged and if 'mm' is NULL then root memcg will be charged. However I could not find a code path where the given 'mm' will be NULL for swap-in case.
