Re: [PATCH v2 3/4] sock: Consider memcg pressure when raising sockmem

For now __sk_mem_raise_allocated() mainly considers global socket
memory pressure and allows to raise if no global pressure observed,
including the sockets whose memcgs are in pressure, which might
result in longer memcg memstall.

So take net-memcg's pressure into consideration when allocating
socket memory to alleviate long tail latencies.

Hi Abel,

Have you seen any real world production issue which is fixed by this
patch or is it more of a fix after reading code?

This code is quite subtle and small changes can cause unintended
behavior changes. At the moment the tcp memory accounting and memcg
accounting is intermingled and I think we should decouple them.

The memcg under pressure callback does a upward memcg tree walk, do
please make sure you have tested the performance impact of this.
