The per-CPU counter are modified with the non-atomic modifier. The consistency is ensured by disabling interrupts for the update. On non PREEMPT_RT configuration this works because acquiring a spinlock_t typed lock with the _irq() suffix disables interrupts. On PREEMPT_RT configurations the RMW operation can be interrupted. Another problem is that mem_cgroup_swapout() expects to be invoked with disabled interrupts because the caller has to acquire a spinlock_t which is acquired with disabled interrupts. Since spinlock_t never disables interrupts on PREEMPT_RT the interrupts are never disabled at this point. The code is never called from in_irq() context on PREEMPT_RT therefore disabling preemption during the update is sufficient on PREEMPT_RT. The sections which explicitly disable interrupts can remain on PREEMPT_RT because the sections remain short and they don't involve sleeping locks (memcg_check_events() is doing nothing on PREEMPT_RT). Disable preemption during update of the per-CPU variables which do not explicitly disable interrupts.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
