We need to make sure that the thread which called out_of_memory() will release oom_lock shortly. Thus, this patch brings the short sleep to outside of the OOM killer. For __alloc_pages_may_oom() case, this patch uses uninterruptible sleep than killable sleep because fatal_signal_pending() threads won't be able to use memory reserves unless tsk_is_oom_victim() becomes true.

And why does sleeping outside of the lock make any sense? The whole point of the sleep is to give the victim some time to exit and if we sleep outside of the lock then contending allocating paths hit the oom path early. To be completely host, I am not in love with this schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(1). It is an ugly hack. It used to be much more important in the past when the oom victim test was too fragile. I strongly suspect that it is not needed this days so rather than moving the sleep around I would try to remove it altogether. Also, your changelog silently skips over some important details. The system must be really overloaded when a short sleep can take minutes. I would trongly suspect that such an overloaded system doesn't need a short sleep to hold the oom lock for too long. All you need is to be preempted. So this patch doesn't really solve any _real_ problem.

The page allocator is not responsible for wasting CPU resource for something other than memory allocation request. Wasting CPU resource due to unable to allow the OOM killer/reaper to make forward progress is the page allocator's bug. There are currently ways to artificially choke the OOM killer/reaper (e.g. let a SCHED_IDLE priority thread which is allowed to run on only one specific CPU invoke the OOM killer). To mitigate it, offloading the OOM killer to a dedicated kernel thread (like the OOM reaper) which has reasonable scheduling priority and is allowed to run on any idle CPU will help. But such enhancement is out of scope for this patch. This patch is intended for avoid sleeping for minutes at schedule_timeout_killable(1) with oom_lock held which can be reproduced without using SCHED_IDLE priority and/or runnable CPU restrictions. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.

Currently __alloc_pages_may_oom() is using mutex_trylock(&oom_lock) based on an assumption that the owner of oom_lock is making progress for us. But it is possible to trigger OOM lockup when many threads concurrently called __alloc_pages_slowpath() because all CPU resources are wasted for pointless direct reclaim efforts. That is, schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(1) in __alloc_pages_may_oom() does not always give enough CPU resource to the owner of the oom_lock. It is possible that the owner of oom_lock is preempted by other threads. Preemption makes the OOM situation much worse. But the page allocator is not responsible about wasting CPU resource for something other than memory allocation request. Wasting CPU resource for memory allocation request without allowing the owner of oom_lock to make forward progress is a page allocator's bug. Therefore, this patch changes to wait for oom_lock in order to guarantee that no thread waiting for the owner of oom_lock to make forward progress will not consume CPU resources for pointless direct reclaim efforts.

We already discussed that it is safe to use ALLOC_WMARK_MIN for last second allocation attempt with oom_lock held and ALLOC_OOM for OOM victim's last second allocation attempt with oom_lock held. We don't need to serialize whole __oom_reap_task_mm() using oom_lock; we need to serialize only setting of MMF_OOM_SKIP using oom_lock. (We won't need oom_lock serialization for setting MMF_OOM_SKIP if everyone can agree with doing last second allocation attempt with oom_lock held after confirming that there is no !MMF_OOM_SKIP mm. But we could not agree it.) Even more, we could try direct OOM reaping than schedule_timeout_killable(1) if preventing the OOM reaper kernel thread is a problem, for we should be able to concurrently run __oom_reap_task_mm() because we allow exit_mmap() and __oom_reap_task_mm() to run concurrently. We know printk() from OOM situation where a lot of threads are doing almost busy-looping is a nightmare. printk() with oom_lock held can start utilizing CPU resources saved by this patch (and reduce preemption during printk(), making printk() complete faster) is already a benefit. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.

The patch in its current form will cause a worse behavior than we have currently, because pending oom waiters simply block the oom reaper.

Currently __alloc_pages_may_oom() is using mutex_trylock(&oom_lock) based on an assumption that the owner of oom_lock is making progress for us. But it is possible to trigger OOM lockup when many threads concurrently called __alloc_pages_slowpath() because all CPU resources are wasted for pointless direct reclaim efforts. That is, schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(1) in __alloc_pages_may_oom() does not always give enough CPU resource to the owner of the oom_lock. It is possible that the owner of oom_lock is preempted by other threads. Preemption makes the OOM situation much worse. But the page allocator is not responsible about wasting CPU resource for something other than memory allocation request. Wasting CPU resource for memory allocation request without allowing the owner of oom_lock to make forward progress is a page allocator's bug. Therefore, this patch changes to wait for oom_lock in order to guarantee that no thread waiting for the owner of oom_lock to make forward progress will not consume CPU resources for pointless direct reclaim efforts. We know printk() from OOM situation where a lot of threads are doing almost busy-looping is a nightmare. As a side effect of this patch, printk() with oom_lock held can start utilizing CPU resources saved by this patch (and reduce preemption during printk(), making printk() complete faster). By changing !mutex_trylock(&oom_lock) with mutex_lock_killable(&oom_lock), it is possible that many threads prevent the OOM reaper from making forward progress. Thus, this patch removes mutex_lock(&oom_lock) from the OOM reaper. Also, since nobody uses oom_lock serialization when setting MMF_OOM_SKIP and we don't try last second allocation attempt after confirming that there is no !MMF_OOM_SKIP OOM victim, the possibility of needlessly selecting more OOM victims will be increased if we continue using ALLOC_WMARK_HIGH. Thus, this patch changes to use ALLOC_MARK_MIN. Also, since we don't want to sleep with oom_lock held so that we can allow threads waiting at mutex_lock_killable(&oom_lock) to try last second allocation attempt (because the OOM reaper starts reclaiming memory without waiting for oom_lock) and start selecting next OOM victim if necessary, this patch changes the location of the short sleep from inside of oom_lock to outside of oom_lock.

This patch does three different things mangled into one patch. All that with a patch description which talks a lot but doesn't really explain those changes. Moreover, you are effectively tunning for an overloaded page allocator artifical test case and add a central lock where many tasks would block. I have already tried to explain that this is not an universal win and you should better have a real life example where this is really helpful. While I do agree that removing the oom_lock from __oom_reap_task_mm is a sensible thing, changing the last allocation attempt to ALLOC_WMARK_MIN is not all that straightforward and it would require much more detailed explaination. So the patch in its current form is not mergeable IMHO. > Signed-off-by: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp> > Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> > Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> > Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> > --- > mm/oom_kill.c | 35 +++-------------------------------- > mm/page_alloc.c | 30 ++++++++++++++++++------------ > 2 files changed, 21 insertions(+), 44 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/mm/oom_kill.c b/mm/oom_kill.c > index 8219001..802214f 100644 > --- a/mm/oom_kill.c > +++ b/mm/oom_kill.c > @@ -491,22 +491,6 @@ static bool __oom_reap_task_mm(struct task_struct *tsk, struct mm_struct *mm) > struct vm_area_struct *vma; > bool ret = true; > > - /* > - * We have to make sure to not race with the victim exit path > - * and cause premature new oom victim selection: > - * __oom_reap_task_mm exit_mm > - * mmget_not_zero > - * mmput > - * atomic_dec_and_test > - * exit_oom_victim > - * [...] > - * out_of_memory > - * select_bad_process > - * # no TIF_MEMDIE task selects new victim > - * unmap_page_range # frees some memory > - */ > - mutex_lock(&oom_lock); > - > if (!down_read_trylock(&mm->mmap_sem)) { > ret = false; > trace_skip_task_reaping(tsk->pid); > @@ -581,7 +565,6 @@ static bool __oom_reap_task_mm(struct task_struct *tsk, struct mm_struct *mm) > > trace_finish_task_reaping(tsk->pid); > unlock_oom: > - mutex_unlock(&oom_lock); > return ret; > } > > @@ -1078,7 +1061,6 @@ bool out_of_memory(struct oom_control *oc) > { > unsigned long freed = 0; > enum oom_constraint constraint = CONSTRAINT_NONE; > - bool delay = false; /* if set, delay next allocation attempt */ > > if (oom_killer_disabled) > return false; > @@ -1128,10 +1110,8 @@ bool out_of_memory(struct oom_control *oc) > return true; > } > > - if (mem_cgroup_select_oom_victim(oc) && oom_kill_memcg_victim(oc)) { > - delay = true; > + if (mem_cgroup_select_oom_victim(oc) && oom_kill_memcg_victim(oc)) > goto out; > - } > > select_bad_process(oc); > /* Found nothing?!?!

You should listen much more and also try to understand concerns that we have. You are trying to touch a very subtle piece of code. That code is not perfect at all but it tends to work reasonably well under most workloads out there. Now you try to handle corner cases you are seeing and that is good thing in general. But the fix shouldn't introduce new risks and adding a single synchronization point into the oom path is simply not without its own risks. -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.

Then, please show me a real life example (by comparing trylock() versus lock_killable()) where lock_killable() hurts. If you proved it, I'm willing to make this optional (i.e. "use trylock() at the risk of lockup or use lock_killable() at the risk of latency"). Without testing this patch at real world, we won't be able to prove it though. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.

Currently __alloc_pages_may_oom() is using mutex_trylock(&oom_lock) based on an assumption that the owner of oom_lock is making progress for us. But it is possible to trigger OOM lockup when many threads concurrently called __alloc_pages_slowpath() because all CPU resources are wasted for pointless direct reclaim efforts. That is, schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(1) in __alloc_pages_may_oom() does not always give enough CPU resource to the owner of the oom_lock. It is possible that the owner of oom_lock is preempted by other threads. Preemption makes the OOM situation much worse. But the page allocator is not responsible about wasting CPU resource for something other than memory allocation request. Wasting CPU resource for memory allocation request without allowing the owner of oom_lock to make forward progress is a page allocator's bug. Therefore, this patch changes to wait for oom_lock in order to guarantee that no thread waiting for the owner of oom_lock to make forward progress will not consume CPU resources for pointless direct reclaim efforts. We know printk() from OOM situation where a lot of threads are doing almost busy-looping is a nightmare. As a side effect of this patch, printk() with oom_lock held can start utilizing CPU resources saved by this patch (and reduce preemption during printk(), making printk() complete faster). By changing !mutex_trylock(&oom_lock) with mutex_lock_killable(&oom_lock), it is possible that many threads prevent the OOM reaper from making forward progress. Thus, this patch removes mutex_lock(&oom_lock) from the OOM reaper. Also, since nobody uses oom_lock serialization when setting MMF_OOM_SKIP and we don't try last second allocation attempt after confirming that there is no !MMF_OOM_SKIP OOM victim, the possibility of needlessly selecting more OOM victims will be increased if we continue using ALLOC_WMARK_HIGH. Thus, this patch changes to use ALLOC_MARK_MIN. Also, since we don't want to sleep with oom_lock held so that we can allow threads waiting at mutex_lock_killable(&oom_lock) to try last second allocation attempt (because the OOM reaper starts reclaiming memory without waiting for oom_lock) and start selecting next OOM victim if necessary, this patch changes the location of the short sleep from inside of oom_lock to outside of oom_lock. But since Michal is still worrying that adding a single synchronization point into the OOM path is risky (without showing a real life example where lock_killable() in the coldest OOM path hurts), changes made by this patch will be enabled only when oom_compat_mode=0 kernel command line parameter is specified so that users can test whether their workloads get hurt by this patch.

Ignoring them is not going > to move this work forward. "And finally this is too big of a hammer for something that even doesn't solve the problem for PREEMPTIVE kernels which are free to schedule regardless of the sleep or the reclaim retry you are so passion about." is not a problem, for preemption is there in the hope that preemption allows processes to do something useful. But current code allows processes to simply waste CPU resources by pointless direct reclaim and prevents the owner of oom_lock from making progress (i.e. AB-BA deadlock). "Secondly, and repeatedly, you are squashing multiple changes into a single patch." is a result of your feedback "This is not a solution without further steps." While v2 patch will need to be split into multiple patches when merging, you should give feedback based on what changes are missing. Doing multiple changes into a single patch can be a reason not to merge but can not be a reason not to test these changes. "We definitely do not want two subtly different modes for the oom handling." is not there in v2 patch. If you say "you are not able to argue for the change and bring reasonable arguments on the table.", please show us your arguments which is better than mine. Nothing can justify current code (i.e. AB-BA deadlock). I'm asking your arguments by "So, where is your version?" ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 26+ messages in thread
