Subject: [PATCH v4] binder_alloc: Replace kcalloc with kvcalloc to mitigate OOM issues
In binder_alloc, there is a frequent need for order3 memory allocation,
especially on small-memory mobile devices, which can lead to OOM and
cause foreground applications to be killed, resulting in flashbacks.
We use kvcalloc to allocate memory, which can reduce system OOM
occurrences, as well as decrease the time and probability of failure for
order3 memory allocations. Additionally, It has little impact on the
throughput of the binder. (as verified by Google's binder_benchmark
testing tool).
We have conducted multiple tests on an 8GB memory phone, kvcalloc has
little performance degradation and resolves frequent OOM issues, Below
is a partial excerpt of the test data.
throughput(TH_PUT) = (size * Iterations)/Time
