This can happen under high memory pressure with a small amount of physical memory. For example, a KVM test configuration with 64 CPUs and 512 megabytes can result in OOM when running rcuscale with below parameters: ../kvm.sh --torture rcuscale --allcpus --duration 10 --kconfig CONFIG_NR_CPUS=64 \ --bootargs "rcuscale.kfree_rcu_test=1 rcuscale.kfree_nthreads=16 rcuscale.holdoff=20 \ rcuscale.kfree_loops=10000 torture.disable_onoff_at_boot" --trust-make [ 12.054448] kworker/1:1H invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x2cc0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_NOWARN), order=0, oom_score_adj=0 [ 12.055303] CPU: 1 PID: 377 Comm: kworker/1:1H Not tainted 5.11.0-rc3+ #510 [ 12.055416] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.12.0-1 04/01/2014 [ 12.056485] Workqueue: events_highpri fill_page_cache_func [ 12.056485] Call Trace: [ 12.056485] dump_stack+0x57/0x6a [ 12.056485] dump_header+0x4c/0x30a [ 12.056485] ? del_timer_sync+0x20/0x30 [ 12.056485] out_of_memory.cold.47+0xa/0x7e [ 12.056485] __alloc_pages_slowpath.constprop.123+0x82f/0xc00 [ 12.056485] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x289/0x2c0 [ 12.056485] __get_free_pages+0x8/0x30 [ 12.056485] fill_page_cache_func+0x39/0xb0 [ 12.056485] process_one_work+0x1ed/0x3b0 [ 12.056485] ? process_one_work+0x3b0/0x3b0 [ 12.060485] worker_thread+0x28/0x3c0 [ 12.060485] ? process_one_work+0x3b0/0x3b0 [ 12.060485] kthread+0x138/0x160 [ 12.060485] ? kthread_park+0x80/0x80 [ 12.060485] ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30 [ 12.062156] Mem-Info: [ 12.062350] active_anon:0 inactive_anon:0 isolated_anon:0 [ 12.062350] active_file:0 inactive_file:0 isolated_file:0 [ 12.062350] unevictable:0 dirty:0 writeback:0 [ 12.062350] slab_reclaimable:2797 slab_unreclaimable:80920 [ 12.062350] mapped:1 shmem:2 pagetables:8 bounce:0 [ 12.062350] free:10488 free_pcp:1227 free_cma:0 ...

Furthermore, the added overhead of aggressive GFP settings must be balanced against the overhead of the fallback path, which is a cache miss for double-argument kvfree_rcu() and a call to synchronize_rcu() for single-argument kvfree_rcu(). The current choice of GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_NOWARN can result in longer latencies than a call to synchronize_rcu(), so less-tenacious GFP flags would be helpful. Here is the tradeoff that must be balanced: a) Minimize use of the fallback path, b) Avoid pushing the system into OOM, c) Bound allocation latency to that of synchronize_rcu(), and d) Leave the emergency reserves to use cases lacking fallbacks. This commit therefore changes GFP flags from GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_NOWARN to GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_NORETRY|__GFP_NOMEMALLOC|__GFP_NOWARN. This combination leaves the emergency reserves alone and can initiate reclaim, but will not invoke the OOM killer. Signed-off-by: Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) Signed-off-by: Paul E.
