mm/oom_kill.c: remove redundant OOM score normalization in select_bad_process()

2019-07-12T18:05:47+00:00

Since commit bbbe48029720 ("mm, oom: remove 'prefer children over
parent' heuristic") removed the

  "%s: Kill process %d (%s) score %u or sacrifice child\n"

line, oc->chosen_points is no longer used after select_bad_process().

oom: decouple mems_allowed from oom_unkillable_task

2019-07-12T18:05:47+00:00

Commit ef08e3b4981a ("[PATCH] cpusets: confine oom_killer to
mem_exclusive cpuset") introduces a heuristic where a potential
oom-killer victim is skipped if the intersection of the potential victim
and the current (the process triggered the oom) is empty based on the
reason that killing such victim most probably will not help the current
allocating process.

However the commit 7887a3da753e ("[PATCH] oom: cpuset hint") changed the
heuristic to just decrease the oom_badness scores of such potential
victim based on the reason that the cpuset of such processes might have
changed and previously they may have allocated memory on mems where the
current allocating process can allocate from.

Unintentionally 7887a3da753e ("[PATCH] oom: cpuset hint") introduced a
side effect as the oom_badness is also exposed to the user space through
/proc/[pid]/oom_score, so, readers with different cpusets can read
different oom_score of the same process.

Later, commit 6cf86ac6f36b ("oom: filter tasks not sharing the same
cpuset") fixed the side effect introduced by 7887a3da753e by moving the
cpuset intersection back to only oom-killer context and out of
oom_badness.  However the combination of ab290adbaf8f ("oom: make
oom_unkillable_task() helper function") and 26ebc984913b ("oom:
/proc//oom_score treat kernel thread honestly") unintentionally
brought back the cpuset intersection check into the oom_badness
calculation function.

Other than doing cpuset/mempolicy intersection from oom_badness, the memcg
oom context is also doing cpuset/mempolicy intersection which is quite
wrong and is caught by syzcaller with the following report:

The fix is to decouple the cpuset/mempolicy intersection check from
oom_unkillable_task() and make sure cpuset/mempolicy intersection check is
only done in the global oom context.

mm, oom: remove redundant task_in_mem_cgroup() check

2019-07-12T18:05:47+00:00

oom_unkillable_task() can be called from three different contexts i.e.
global OOM, memcg OOM and oom_score procfs interface.  At the moment
oom_unkillable_task() does a task_in_mem_cgroup() check on the given
process.  Since there is no reason to perform task_in_mem_cgroup()
check for global OOM and oom_score procfs interface, those contexts
provide NULL memcg and skips the task_in_mem_cgroup() check.  However
for memcg OOM context, the oom_unkillable_task() is always called from
mem_cgroup_scan_tasks() and thus task_in_mem_cgroup() check becomes
redundant and effectively dead code.  So, just remove the
task_in_mem_cgroup() check altogether.

mm, oom: refactor dump_tasks for memcg OOMs

2019-07-12T18:05:47+00:00

dump_tasks() traverses all the existing processes even for the memcg OOM
context which is not only unnecessary but also wasteful.  This imposes a
long RCU critical section even from a contained context which can be quite
disruptive.

Change dump_tasks() to be aligned with select_bad_process and use
mem_cgroup_scan_tasks to selectively traverse only processes of the target
memcg hierarchy during memcg OOM.

mm: memcontrol: use CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS at mem_cgroup_scan_tasks()

2019-07-12T18:05:47+00:00

Since commit c03cd7738a83 ("cgroup: Include dying leaders with live
threads in PROCS iterations") corrected how CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS works,
mem_cgroup_scan_tasks() can use CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS in order to check
only one thread from each thread group.

mm/oom_kill.c: fix uninitialized oc->constraint

2019-06-29T08:43:45+00:00

In dump_oom_summary() oc->constraint is used to show oom_constraint_text,
but it hasn't been set before.  So the value of it is always the default
value 0.  We should inititialize it before.

Bellow is the output when memcg oom occurs,

before this patch:
  oom-kill:constraint=CONSTRAINT_NONE,nodemask=(null), cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0,oom_memcg=/foo,task_memcg=/foo,task=bash,pid=7997,uid=0

after this patch:
  oom-kill:constraint=CONSTRAINT_MEMCG,nodemask=(null), cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0,oom_memcg=/foo,task_memcg=/foo,task=bash,pid=13681,uid=0

mm/mmu_notifier: contextual information for event triggering invalidation

2019-05-14T16:47:49+00:00

CPU page table update can happens for many reasons, not only as a result
of a syscall (munmap(), mprotect(), mremap(), madvise(), ...) but also as
a result of kernel activities (memory compression, reclaim, migration,
...).

Users of mmu notifier API track changes to the CPU page table and take
specific action for them.  While current API only provide range of virtual
address affected by the change, not why the changes is happening.

This patchset do the initial mechanical convertion of all the places that
calls mmu_notifier_range_init to also provide the default MMU_NOTIFY_UNMAP
event as well as the vma if it is know (most invalidation happens against
a given vma).  Passing down the vma allows the users of mmu notifier to
inspect the new vma page protection.

The MMU_NOTIFY_UNMAP is always the safe default as users of mmu notifier
should assume that every for the range is going away when that event
happens.  A latter patch do convert mm call path to use a more appropriate
events for each call.

This is done as 2 patches so that no call site is forgotten especialy
as it uses this following coccinelle patch:

mm,oom: don't kill global init via memory.oom.group

mm, oom: remove 'prefer children over parent' heuristic

2019-03-06T05:07:17+00:00

Since the start of the git history of Linux, the kernel after selecting
the worst process to be oom-killed, prefer to kill its child (if the
child does not share mm with the parent).  Later it was changed to
prefer to kill a child who is worst.  If the parent is still the worst
then the parent will be killed.

This heuristic assumes that the children did less work than their parent
and by killing one of them, the work lost will be less.  However this is
very workload dependent.  If there is a workload which can benefit from
this heuristic, can use oom_score_adj to prefer children to be killed
before the parent.

The select_bad_process() has already selected the worst process in the
system/memcg.  There is no need to recheck the badness of its children
and hoping to find a worse candidate.  That's a lot of unneeded racy
work.  Also the heuristic is dangerous because it make fork bomb like
workloads to recover much later because we constantly pick and kill
processes which are not memory hogs.  So, let's remove this whole
heuristic.
