[PATCH 1/5] mm: memcg/slab: Fix return child memcg objcg for root memcg

From: Muchun Song
Date: Tue Oct 27 2020 - 04:03:44 EST


Consider the following memcg hierarchy.

root
/ \
A B

If we get the objcg of memcg A failed, the get_obj_cgroup_from_current
can return the wrong objcg for the root memcg.

Fixes: bf4f059954dc ("mm: memcg/slab: obj_cgroup API")
