Subject: [RFC][PATCH 3/4] memcg: fix OOM KILL under hierarchy
From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@...fujitsu.com>
Current memcg's oom-killer has 2 problems when hierarchy is used.
Assume following tree,
Group_A/ use_hierarchy = 1, limit=1G
01/ nolimit
02/ nolimit
03/ nolimit
In this case, sum of memory usage from 01,02,03 is limited to 1G (of Group_A).
Assume a task in Group_A/01 causes OOM by limit of Group_A, in this case,
bad_process() will select a process in Group_A, not in 01,02,03.
This patch fixes the behavior and all processes under Group_A's hierarchy
01,02,03 will be OOM kill candidates.
And now, to avoid calling oom_kill twice, mem_cgroup_oom_called() hook is
used in pagefault_out_of_memory(). This check the timestamp of the most
recent OOM in memcg. This timestamp should be updated per hierarchy.
