Hi,
these three patches are small fixes for urgent issues with memory
cgroups and transparent huge pages. They are inspired by 4/7 of
KAMEZAWA-san's recent series 'memcg : more fixes and clean up for
2.6.28-rc' to make memory cgroups work with THP.
2/3 fixes a bug that is first uncovered through 1/3. Minchan
suggested this order for review purposes, but they should probably be
applied the other way round (2, then 1) for better bisectability.
If everybody agrees, I would prefer these going into -mmotm now, and
have further cleanups and optimizations based on them.

The charging code can encounter a charge size that is bigger than a
regular page in two situations: one is a batched charge to fill the
per-cpu stocks, the other is a huge page charge.
This code is distributed over two functions, however, and only the
outer one is aware of huge pages. In case the charging fails, the
inner function will tell the outer function to retry if the charge
size is bigger than regular pages--assuming batched charging is the
only case. And the outer function will retry forever charging a huge
page.
This patch makes sure the inner function can distinguish between batch
charging and a single huge page charge. It will only signal another
attempt if batch charging failed, and go into regular reclaim when it
is called on behalf of a huge page.

If reclaim after a failed charging was unsuccessful, the limits are
checked again, just in case they settled by means of other tasks.
This is all fine as long as every charge is of size PAGE_SIZE, because
in that case, being below the limit means having at least PAGE_SIZE
bytes available.
But with transparent huge pages, we may end up in an endless loop
where charging and reclaim fail, but we keep going because the limits
are not yet exceeded, although not allowing for a huge page.
Fix this up by explicitely checking for enough room, not just whether
we are within limits.

Huge page coverage should obviously have less priority than the
continued execution of a process.
Never kill a process when charging it a huge page fails. Instead,
give up after the first failed reclaim attempt and fall back to
regular pages.

argh.
If you ever have a function with the string "check" in its name, it's a
good sign that you did something wrong.
Check what? Against what? Returning what?
mem_cgroup_check_under_limit() isn't toooo bad - the name tells you
what's being checked and tells you what to expect the return value to
mean.
But "res_counter_check_margin" and "mem_cgroup_check_margin" are just
awful. Something like
bool res_counter_may_charge(counter, bytes)
would be much clearer.
If we really want to stick with the "check" names (perhaps as an ironic
reference to res_counter's past mistakes) then please at least document
the sorry things?

That makes sense for the hard limit. But the oh-so-generic resource
counters also have a soft limit, and you don't ask for that when you
want to charge. Right now, I do not feel creative enough to come up
with a symmetric-sounding counterpart.

I cowardly went with this option and have a patch below to fold into
this fix.
Maybe it would be better to use res_counter_margin(cnt) >= wanted
throughout the code. Or still better, make memcg work on pages and
res_counters on unsigned longs so the locking is no longer needed,
together with an API for most obvious maths. I will work something
out and submit it separately.

Okay, I cleaned it all up a bit for .39. While doing so, I also found
that we are reclaiming one page too much when pushing back on behalf
of soft limits.
So 1/2 fixes the soft limit reclaim off-by-one-page, and 2/2 reduces
all the limit checks to two functions.

Soft limit reclaim continues until the usage is below the current soft
limit, but the documented semantics are actually that soft limit
reclaim will push usage back until the soft limits are met again.

Since transparent huge pages, checking whether memory cgroups are
below their limits is no longer enough, but the actual amount of
chargeable space is important.
To not have more than one limit-checking interface, replace
memory_cgroup_check_under_limit() and memory_cgroup_check_margin()
with a single memory_cgroup_margin() that returns the chargeable space
and leaves the comparison to the callsite.
Soft limits are now checked the other way round, by using the already
existing function that returns the amount by which soft limits are
exceeded: res_counter_soft_limit_excess().
Also remove all the corresponding functions on the res_counter side
that are now no longer used.
