Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] cgroup/dmem: allow double-charging dmem allocations to memcg
Date: Tue, 19 May 2026 11:59:00 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260519-cgroup-dmem-memcg-double-charge-v2-0-db4d1407062b@redhat.com> (raw)
Following suggestion[1], offer a cgroupfs entry to allow an
administrator to request that a dmem controlled region also charges to
the memory controller.
Add mem_cgroup_dmem_charge/uncharge helpers to resolve the effective
cgroup from a dmem pool's cgroup, perform the charge and update a
MEMCG_DMEM stat counter.
Add a "dmem.memcg" control file at the root level to configure memcg
charging per region. The setting is disabled by default and locked on
first charge attempt.

Changes in v2:
- Use mem_cgroup_dmem_{,un}charge to account for memcg pages instead of
exposing raw nr_pages functions. Use it to centralize where to find
the effective cgroup from the pool's cgroup (Johannes)
- Set depends_on for cgrp_memory if CONFIG_MEMCG by having a memory
controller in children cgroup (Michal)
- Move dmem.memcg to the root level as it applies by region for all
cgroups
- Add a dmem memory.stats entry for reporting memcg charges for dmem
allocations.
- Wrap the memcg enable/disable/lock configuration under a single state
to avoid toctou races and simplify transitions.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260403-cgroup-dmem-memcg-double-charge-v1-0-c371d155de2a@redhat.com
