Hi,
I got an oom panic because cgroup is leaked.
Here is the steps :
- run a docker with --cap-add sys_admin parameter and the systemd
process in the docker uses both cgroupv1 and cgroupv2
- ssh/exit from host to docker repeately
I find the number nr_dying_descendants is increasing:
linux-dVpNUK:~ # find /sys/fs/cgroup/ -name cgroup.stat -exec grep
'^nr_dying_descendants [^0]' {} +
/sys/fs/cgroup/unified/cgroup.stat:nr_dying_descendants 80
/sys/fs/cgroup/unified/system.slice/cgroup.stat:nr_dying_descendants 1
/sys/fs/cgroup/unified/system.slice/system-hostos.slice/cgroup.stat:nr_dying_descendants

78
The situation is as same as the commit bd1060a1d671 ("sock, cgroup: add
sock->sk_cgroup") describes.
"On mode switch, cgroup references which are already being pointed to by
socks may be leaked."
Do we have a fix for this leak now ?
Or how about fix this by record the cgrp2 pointer, then put it when sk
is freeing like this:

Those numbers are nowhere close to causing oom issues. There are some
aspects of page and other cache draining which is being improved but unless
you're seeing numbers multiple orders of magnitude higher, this isn't the
source of your problem.

I'm doubtful that you're hitting that issue. Mode switching means memcg
being switched between cgroup1 and cgroup2 hierarchies, which is unlikely to
be what's happening when you're launching docker containers.
The first step would be identifying where memory is going and finding out
whether memcg is actually being switched between cgroup1 and 2 - look at the
hierarchy number in /proc/cgroups, if that's switching between 0 and
someting not zero, it is switching.
Thanks.

I think there's a bug here which can lead to unlimited memory leak.
This should reproduce the bug:
# mount -t cgroup -o netprio xxx /cgroup/netprio
# mkdir /cgroup/netprio/xxx
# echo PID > /cgroup/netprio/xxx/tasks
/* this PID process starts to do some network thing and then exits */
# rmdir /cgroup/netprio/xxx
/* now this cgroup will never be freed */
Look at the code:
static inline void sock_update_netprioidx(struct sock_cgroup_data *skcd)
{
...
sock_cgroup_set_prioidx(skcd, task_netprioidx(current));
}
static inline void sock_cgroup_set_prioidx(struct sock_cgroup_data *skcd,
u16 prioidx)
{
...
if (sock_cgroup_prioidx(&skcd_buf) == prioidx)
return ;
...
skcd_buf.prioidx = prioidx;
WRITE_ONCE(skcd->val, skcd_buf.val);
}
task_netprioidx() will be the cgrp id of xxx which is not 1, but
sock_cgroup_prioidx(&skcd_buf) is 1 because it thought it's in v2 mode.
Now we have a memory leak.
I think the eastest fix is to do the mode switch here:

Correction (still not tested):
