But what we could do is to rely on a fixed limit like the Intel driver does and I suggested before. E.g. don't copy anything into a shmemfile when there is only x MB of swap space left. Here I think we can do it further, let the limit value scaling with total system memory. For example: total system memory * 1/2. If that it will match the platform configuration better. Roger can you test that approach once more with your fix for the OOM issues in the page fault handler? Sure. Use the limit as total ram*1/2 seems work very well. No OOM although swap disk reaches full at peak for piglit test. I speculate this case happens but no OOM because: a. run a while, swap disk be used close to 1/2* total size and but not over 1/2 * total. b. all subsequent swapped pages stay in system memory until no space there. Then the swapped pages in shmem be flushed into swap disk. And probably OS also need some swap space. For this case, it is easy to get full for swap disk. c. but because now free swap size < 1/2 * total, so no swap out happen after that. And at least 1/4* system memory will left because below check in ttm_mem_global_reserve will ensure that. if (zone->used_mem > limit) goto out_unlock; Thanks Roger(Hongbo.He) -----Original Message----- From: Koenig, Christian Sent: Wednesday, January 31, 2018 4:13 PM To: He, Roger <Hongbo.He@xxxxxxx>; Zhou, David(ChunMing) <David1.Zhou@xxxxxxx>; dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-mm@xxxxxxxxx; linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [PATCH] mm/swap: add function get_total_swap_pages to expose total_swap_pages Yeah, indeed.
