Subject: [PATCH] mm,oom: Try last second allocation before and after selecting an OOM victim.
This patch splits last second allocation attempt into two locations, once
before selecting an OOM victim and again after selecting an OOM victim,
and uses normal watermark for last second allocation attempts.
As of linux-2.6.11, nothing prevented from concurrently calling
out_of_memory(). TIF_MEMDIE test in select_bad_process() tried to avoid
needless OOM killing. Thus, it was safe to do __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM
allocation (apart from which watermark should be used) just before
calling out_of_memory().
As of linux-2.6.24, try_set_zone_oom() was added to
__alloc_pages_may_oom() by commit ff0ceb9deb6eb017 ("oom: serialize out
of memory calls") which effectively started acting as a kind of today's
mutex_trylock(&oom_lock).
As of linux-4.2, try_set_zone_oom() was replaced with oom_lock by
commit dc56401fc9f25e8f ("mm: oom_kill: simplify OOM killer locking").
At least by this time, it became no longer safe to do
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM allocation with oom_lock held.
And as of linux-4.13, last second allocation attempt stopped using
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM by commit e746bf730a76fe53 ("mm,page_alloc: don't
call __node_reclaim() with oom_lock held.").
Therefore, there is no longer valid reason to use ALLOC_WMARK_HIGH for
last second allocation attempt [1]. And this patch changes to do normal
allocation attempt, with handling of ALLOC_OOM added in order to mitigate
extra OOM victim selection problem reported by Manish Jaggi [2].
Doing really last second allocation attempt after selecting an OOM victim
will also help the OOM reaper to start reclaiming memory without waiting
for oom_lock to be released.
