Subject: Re: [syzbot] possible deadlock in start_this_handle (3)

Hello,

so this lockdep report looks real but is more related to OOM handling than
to ext4 as such. The immediate problem I can see is that
mem_cgroup_print_oom_meminfo() which is called under oom_lock calls
memory_stat_format() which does GFP_KERNEL allocations to allocate buffers
for dumping of MM statistics. This creates oom_lock -> fs reclaim
dependency and because OOM can be hit (and thus oom_lock acquired) in
practically any allocation (regardless of GFP_NOFS) this has a potential of
creating real deadlock cycles.

So should mem_cgroup_print_oom_meminfo() be using
memalloc_nofs_save/restore() to avoid such deadlocks? Or perhaps someone
sees another solution? Generally allocating memory to report OOM looks a
bit dangerous to me ;).
