In eviction recency check, we are currently not holding a local reference to the memcg that the refaulted folio belonged to when it was evicted. This could cause serious memcg lifetime issues, for e.g in the memcg hierarchy traversal done in mem_cgroup_get_nr_swap_pages(). This has occurred in production:
Doesn't workingset_refault() call workingset_test_recent() under RCU?
Yep we're under RCU protection. But the eviction_memcg is grabbed from a memcg id packed in the shadow - its reference count might go down to 0 in the meantime and get killed.
This pattern (tryget memcg inside RCU) is done in a couple other places too.
Shouldn't this guarantee the validity of the memcg?

Alternatively we could separate the function that gets the memcg from the shadow (e.g. get_memcg_from_shadow or so).
Hmm I feel like unpack as a verb is good here. But I can add a small comment/documentation above the function to signify that this function holds a reference to the memcg, and a corresponding put call will be needed, if that helps.
I would also hold an RCU read lock here so that the call to mem_cgroup_from_id() is valid. I know all callers currently do, but it may change later. Alternatively we can add an assertion or a warning.
I prefer the assertion idea. But FWIW, mem_cgroup_from_id() already has a warning for this (WARN_ON_ONCE(!rcu_read_lock_held()))
Seems redundant to me, especially if the reason why we care about unpack_shadow() being under RCU is for mem_cgroup_from_id() to be valid.
