Subject: [PATCH 08/10] mm/oom_debug: Add Slab Select Always Print Enable
Config option to always enable slab printing. This option will enable
slab entries to be printed even when slab memory usage does not
exceed the standard Linux user memory usage print trigger. The Standard
OOM event Slab entry print trigger is that slab memory usage exceeds user
memory usage. This covers cases where the Kernel or Kernel drivers are
driving slab memory usage up causing it to be excessive. However, OOM
Events are often caused by user processes causing too much memory usage.
In some cases where the user memory usage is quite high the amount of
slab memory consumed can still be an important factor in determining what
caused the OOM event. In such cases it would be useful to have slab
memory usage for any slab entries using a significant amount of memory.
Configuring Slab Select Always Print Enable
-------------------------------------------
This option is configured with: DEBUG_OOM_SLAB_SELECT_ALWAYS_PRINT
OOM Debug options include Slab Entry print limiting with the
DEBUG_OOM_SLAB_SELECT_PRINT option. This allows entries of only a
minimum size to be printed to prevent large number of entries from being
printed. However, the Standard OOM event Slab entry print trigger prevents
any entries from being printed if the Slab memory usage does not exceed
a significant portion of the user memory usage. Enabling the
DEBUG_OOM_SLAB_SELECT_ALWAYS_PRINT option allows the trigger to be
overridden.
Dynamic disable or re-enable this OOM Debug option
--------------------------------------------------
The oom debugfs base directory is found at: /sys/kernel/debug/oom.
The oom debugfs for this option is: slab_select_always_print_
and the file for this option is the enable file.
The option may be disabled or re-enabled using the debugfs entry for
this OOM debug option. The debugfs file to enable this option is found at:
/sys/kernel/debug/oom/slab_select_always_print_enabled
The option's enabled file value determines whether the facility is enabled
or disabled. A value of 1 is enabled (default) and a value of 0 is
disabled. When configured the default setting is set to enabled.
Sample Output
-------------
There is no change to the standard OOM output with this option other than
the stanrd Linux OOM report Unreclaimable info is output for every OOM
Event, not just OOM Events where slab usage exceeds user process memory
usage.

+ When enabled the option allows Slab entries using the minimum
+ memory size specified by the DEBUG_OOM_SLAB_SELECT_PRINT option
+ to be printed even if the amount of Slab Memory in use does not
+ exceed the amount of user memory in use. This essentially
+ overrides the standard OOM Slab entry print tigger. This is
+ useful when trying to determine all of the factors that
+ contributed to an OOM event even when user memory usage was
+ most likely the most signficant contributor. If Slab usage was
+ higher than normal this could contribute to the OOM event. The
+ DEBUG_OOM_SLAB_SELECT_PRINT allows entry sizes of 0% to 100%
+ where 0% prints all the entries that the standard trigger prints
+ (any slabs using even 1 slab entry).
+
+ If the option is configured it is enabled/disabled by setting
+ the value of the file entry in the debugfs OOM interface at:
+ /sys/kernel/debug/oom/slab_select_always_print_enabled
+ A value of 1 is enabled (default) and a value of 0 is disabled.
