Hi,
I have posted this as an RFC [1] to see whether the approach I've taken
is acceptable. There didn't seem to be any fundamental opposition
so I have dropped the RFC. I would like to target this for 4.10
and sending this early because I will be offline for a longer time
at the end of Oct. The series is on top of the current mmotm tree
(2016-09-27-16-08). It has passed my basic testing and nothing blew up
but this additional testing never hurts as well as a deep review I would
be really grateful for.
The primary point of this series is to get rid of TIF_MEMDIE
finally. This has been on my TODO list for quite some time because
the flag has proven to cause many problems. First of all, the flag
was terribly overloaded. It used to act as a oom lock to prevent from
multiple oom selection, then it grants access to memory reserves and
finally it is used to count oom victims for oom_killer_disable() logic.
It really didn't help that the flag is per task_struct (aka thread)
while the OOM is mm_struct scope operation. This means that all threads
in the same thread group - or in general all processes sharing the mm -
will have to get the flag for the code to rely on it reliably. This was
not that easy because at least access to memory reserves for all threads
could deplete them quite easily. Setting the flag to all threads is
quite challenging, though, because mark_oom_victim can race with
copy_process and we could easily miss a thread. That being said it
would be better to get rid of the flag rather workaround existing issues
and add more complicated code to fix the fundamental mismatch.
Recent changes in the oom proper allows for that finally, I believe. Now
that all the oom victims are reapable we are no longer depending on
ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS because the memory held by the victim is reclaimed
asynchronously. A partial access to memory reserves should be sufficient
just to guarantee that the oom victim is not starved due to other
memory consumers. This also means that we do not have to pretend to be
conservative and give access to memory reserves only to one thread from
the process at the time. This is patch 1.
Patch 2 is a simple cleanup which turns TIF_MEMDIE users to tsk_is_oom_victim
which is process rather than thread centric. None of those callers really
requires to be thread aware AFAICS.
The tricky part then is exit_oom_victim vs. oom_killer_disable because
TIF_MEMDIE acted as a token there so we had a way to count threads from
the process. It didn't work 100% reliably and had its own issues but we
have to replace it with something which doesn't rely on counting threads
but rather find a moment when all threads have reached steady state in
do_exit. This is what patch 3 does and I would really appreciate if Oleg
could double check my thinking there. I am also CCing Al on that one
because I am moving exit_io_context up in do_exit right before exit_notify.
The last patch just removes TIF_MEMDIE from the arch code because it is
no longer needed anywhere.
I really appreciate any feedback.
Changes since RFC
- add motivation to the cover as suggested by Johannes
- rebased on top of the current mmotm
[1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1472723464-22866-1-git-send-email-mhocko@kernel.org
Michal Hocko (4):
mm, oom: do not rely on TIF_MEMDIE for memory reserves access
mm: replace TIF_MEMDIE checks by tsk_is_oom_victim
mm, oom: do not rely on TIF_MEMDIE for exit_oom_victim
arch: get rid of TIF_MEMDIE
The diffstat looks quite promissing to me.

For ages we have been relying on TIF_MEMDIE thread flag to mark OOM
victims and then, among other things, to give these threads full
access to memory reserves. There are few shortcomings of this
implementation, though.
First of all and the most serious one is that the full access to memory
reserves is quite dangerous because we leave no safety room for the
system to operate and potentially do last emergency steps to move on.
Secondly this flag is per task_struct while the OOM killer operates
on mm_struct granularity so all processes sharing the given mm are
killed. Giving the full access to all these task_structs could leave to
a quick memory reserves depletion. We have tried to reduce this risk by
giving TIF_MEMDIE only to the main thread and the currently allocating
task but that doesn't really solve this problem while it surely opens up
a room for corner cases - e.g. GFP_NO{FS,IO} requests might loop inside
the allocator without access to memory reserves because a particular
thread was not the group leader.
Now that we have the oom reaper and that all oom victims are reapable
(after "oom, oom_reaper: allow to reap mm shared by the kthreads")
we can be more conservative and grant only partial access to memory
reserves because there are reasonable chances of the parallel memory
freeing. We still want some access to reserves because we do not
want other consumers to eat up the victim's freed memory. oom victims
will still contend with __GFP_HIGH users but those shouldn't be so
aggressive to starve oom victims completely.
Introduce ALLOC_OOM flag and give all tsk_is_oom_victim tasks access to
the half of the reserves. This makes the access to reserves independent
on which task has passed through mark_oom_victim. Also drop any
usage of TIF_MEMDIE from the page allocator proper and replace it by
tsk_is_oom_victim as well which will make page_alloc.c completely
TIF_MEMDIE free finally.
CONFIG_MMU=n doesn't have oom reaper so let's stick to the original
ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS approach but be careful because they still might
deplete all the memory reserves so keep the semantic as close to the
original implementation as possible and give them access to memory
reserves only up to exit_mm (when tsk->mm is cleared) rather than while
tsk_is_oom_victim which is until signal struct is gone.

TIF_MEMDIE is set only to the tasks whick were either directly selected
by the OOM killer or passed through mark_oom_victim from the allocator
path. tsk_is_oom_victim is more generic and allows to identify all tasks
(threads) which share the mm with the oom victim.

* [PATCH 3/4] mm, oom: do not rely on TIF_MEMDIE for exit_oom_victim

From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com>
mark_oom_victim and exit_oom_victim are used for oom_killer_disable
which should block as long as there are any oom victims alive. Up to now
we have relied on TIF_MEMDIE task flag to count how many oom victim
we have. This is not optimal because only one thread receives this flag
at the time while the whole process (thread group) is killed and should
die. As a result we do not thaw the whole thread group and so a multi
threaded process can leave some threads behind in the fridge. We really
want to thaw all the threads.
This is not all that easy because there is no reliable way to count
threads in the process as the oom killer might race with copy_process.
So marking all threads with TIF_MEMDIE and increment oom_victims
accordingly is not safe. Also TIF_MEMDIE flag should just die so
we should better come up with a different approach.
All we need to guarantee is that exit_oom_victim is called at the time
when no further access to (possibly suspended) devices or generate other
IO (which would clobber suspended image and only once per process)
is possible. It seems we can rely on exit_notify for that because we
already have to detect the last thread to do a cleanup. Let's propagate
that information up to do_exit and only call exit_oom_victim for such
a thread. With this in place we can safely increment oom_victims only
once per thread group and thaw all the threads from the process.
freezing_slow_path can also rely on tsk_is_oom_victim as well now.
exit_io_context is currently called after exit_notify but it seems it is
safe to call it right before exit_notify because that is passed
exit_files.

This looks strange... it won't return true if "p" is the group leader.

this can only happen if this process auto-reaps itself. Not to mention
that exit_notify() will never return true if traced.
No, this doesn't look right.

You are right. I should have noticed that. Especially when I was hunting
the strace hang bug. I started to have a bad feeling about this patch
but for some reason I just didn't put all the pieces together.
So the patch is completely b0rked. Back to drawing board and start
again. Oh well...
Anyway thanks and sorry to waste your time.

It became apparent that the last part was wrong after Oleg's review. I
definitely want to come up with something that works eventually. I am
just wondering whether patches 1-2 are worth accepting without the rest.
I fully realize those patches are less attractive when TIF_MEMDIE stays
but I would argue that reducing the TIF_MEMDIE users will make the code
slightly better and easier to understand.
What do you think?
