currently ttm code has no any allocation limit. So it allows pages
allocatation unlimited until OOM. Because if swap space is full
of swapped pages and then system memory will be filled up with ttm
pages. and then any memory allocation request will trigger OOM.
the following patches is for prevent OOM triggered by TTM.
the basic idea is when allocating TTM pages, check the free swap space
firt. if it is less than the fixe limit, reject the allocation request.
but there are two exceptions which should allow it regardless of zone
memory account limit.
a. page fault
for ttm_mem_global_reserve if serving for page fault routine,
because page fault routing already grabbed system memory so the
allowance of this exception is harmless. Otherwise, it will trigger
OOM killer.
b. suspend
anyway, we should allow suspend success always.
at last, if bdev.no_retry is false (by defaut), keep the original behavior
no any change.
Roger He (5):
drm/ttm: check if the free swap space is under limit 256MB
drm/ttm: keep original behavior except with flag no_retry
drm/ttm: use bit flag to replace allow_reserved_eviction in
ttm_operation_ctx
drm/ttm: add bit flag TTM_OPT_FLAG_ALLOW_ALLOC_ANYWAY
drm/ttm: add input parameter allow_allo_anyway for ttm_bo_evict_mm
