From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
In current page-fault code,
handle_mm_fault()
-> ...
-> mem_cgroup_charge()
-> map page or handle error.
-> check return code.
If page fault's return code is VM_FAULT_OOM, page_fault_out_of_memory()
is called. But if it's caused by memcg, OOM should have been already
invoked.
Then, I added a patch: a636b327f731143ccc544b966cfd8de6cb6d72c6
That patch records last_oom_jiffies for memcg's sub-hierarchy and
prevents page_fault_out_of_memory from being invoked in near future.
But Nishimura-san reported that check by jiffies is not enough
when the system is terribly heavy.
This patch changes memcg's oom logic as.
* If memcg causes OOM-kill, continue to retry.
* remove jiffies check which is used now.
* add memcg-oom-lock which works like perzone oom lock.
* If current is killed(as a process), bypass charge.
Something more sophisticated can be added but this pactch does
fundamental things.
TODO:
- add oom notifier
- add permemcg disable-oom-kill flag and freezer at oom.
- more chances for wake up oom waiter (when changing memory limit etc..)
Changelog 20100304
- fixed mem_cgroup_oom_unlock()
- added comments
- changed wait status from TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE to TASK_KILLABLE
Changelog 20100303
- added comments
Changelog 20100302
- fixed mutex and prepare_to_wait order.
- fixed per-memcg oom lock.
