Subject: Re: [PATCH v13 3/7] mm, oom: cgroup-aware OOM killer


As a result of the "stalled MM patches" discussion I've dropped these
three patches:

mm,oom: move last second allocation to inside the OOM killer
mm,oom: use ALLOC_OOM for OOM victim's last second allocation
mm,oom: remove oom_lock serialization from the OOM reaper

and I had to rework this patch as a result.  Please carefully check (and
preferable test) my handiwork in out_of_memory()?

Subject: mm, oom: cgroup-aware OOM killer

Traditionally, the OOM killer is operating on a process level.  Under oom
conditions, it finds a process with the highest oom score and kills it.

This behavior doesn't suit well the system with many running containers:

1) There is no fairness between containers.  A small container with few
   large processes will be chosen over a large one with huge number of
   small processes.

2) Containers often do not expect that some random process inside will
   be killed.  In many cases much safer behavior is to kill all tasks in
   the container.  Traditionally, this was implemented in userspace, but
   doing it in the kernel has some advantages, especially in a case of a
   system-wide OOM.

To address these issues, the cgroup-aware OOM killer is introduced.

This patch introduces the core functionality: an ability to select a
memory cgroup as an OOM victim.  Under OOM conditions the OOM killer looks
for the biggest leaf memory cgroup and kills the biggest task belonging to
it.

The following patches will extend this functionality to consider non-leaf
memory cgroups as OOM victims, and also provide an ability to kill all
tasks belonging to the victim cgroup.

The root cgroup is treated as a leaf memory cgroup, so it's score is
compared with other leaf memory cgroups.  Due to memcg statistics
implementation a special approximation is used for estimating oom_score of
root memory cgroup: we sum oom_score of the belonging processes (or, to be
more precise, tasks owning their mm structures).
