[patch 67/84] mm: make vm_mmap killable

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: make vm_mmap killable

All the callers of vm_mmap seem to check for the failure already and bail
out in one way or another on the error which means that we can change it
to use killable version of vm_mmap_pgoff and return -EINTR if the current
task gets killed while waiting for mmap_sem.  This also means that
vm_mmap_pgoff can be killable by default and drop the additional
parameter.

This will help in the OOM conditions when the oom victim might be stuck
waiting for the mmap_sem for write which in turn can block oom_reaper
which relies on the mmap_sem for read to make a forward progress and
reclaim the address space of the victim.

Please note that load_elf_binary is ignoring vm_mmap error for
current->personality & MMAP_PAGE_ZERO case but that shouldn't be a problem
because the address is not used anywhere and we never return to the
userspace if we got killed.
