mm, oom: introduce memory.oom.group · 3d8b38eb

Roman Gushchin authored Aug 21, 2018

For some workloads an intervention from the OOM killer can be painful.
Killing a random task can bring the workload into an inconsistent state.

Historically, there are two common solutions for this
problem:
1) enabling panic_on_oom,
2) using a userspace daemon to monitor OOMs and kill
   all outstanding processes.

Both approaches have their downsides: rebooting on each OOM is an obvious
waste of capacity, and handling all in userspace is tricky and requires a
userspace agent, which will monitor all cgroups for OOMs.

In most cases an in-kernel after-OOM cleaning-up mechanism can eliminate
the necessity of enabling panic_on_oom.  Also, it can simplify the cgroup
management for userspace applications.

This commit introduces a new knob for cgroup v2 memory controller:
memory.oom.group.  The knob determines whether the cgroup should be
treated as an indivisible workload by the OOM killer.  If set, all tasks
belonging to the cgroup or to its descendants (if the memory cgroup is not
a leaf cgroup) are killed together or not at all.

To determine which cgroup has to be killed, we do traverse the cgroup
hierarchy from the victim task's cgroup up to the OOMing cgroup (or root)
and looking for the highest-level cgroup with memory.oom.group set.

Tasks with the OOM protection (oom_score_adj set to -1000) are treated as
an exception and are never killed.

This patch doesn't change the OOM victim selection algorithm.

mm, oom: refactor oom_kill_process() · 5989ad7b

Roman Gushchin authored Aug 21, 2018

Patch series "introduce memory.oom.group", v2.

This is a tiny implementation of cgroup-aware OOM killer, which adds an
ability to kill a cgroup as a single unit and so guarantee the integrity
of the workload.

Although it has only a limited functionality in comparison to what now
resides in the mm tree (it doesn't change the victim task selection
algorithm, doesn't look at memory stas on cgroup level, etc), it's also
much simpler and more straightforward.  So, hopefully, we can avoid having
long debates here, as we had with the full implementation.

As it doesn't prevent any futher development, and implements an useful and
complete feature, it looks as a sane way forward.

This patch (of 2):

oom_kill_process() consists of two logical parts: the first one is
responsible for considering task's children as a potential victim and
printing the debug information.  The second half is responsible for
sending SIGKILL to all tasks sharing the mm struct with the given victim.

This commit splits oom_kill_process() with an intention to re-use the the
second half: __oom_kill_process().

The cgroup-aware OOM killer will kill multiple tasks belonging to the
victim cgroup.  We don't need to print the debug information for the each
task, as well as play with task selection (considering task's children),
so we can't use the existing oom_kill_process().

mm/page_alloc: Introduce free_area_init_core_hotplug · 03e85f9d

Oscar Salvador authored Aug 21, 2018

Currently, whenever a new node is created/re-used from the memhotplug
path, we call free_area_init_node()->free_area_init_core().  But there is
some code that we do not really need to run when we are coming from such
path.

free_area_init_core() performs the following actions:

1) Initializes pgdat internals, such as spinlock, waitqueues and more.
2) Account # nr_all_pages and # nr_kernel_pages. These values are used later on
   when creating hash tables.
3) Account number of managed_pages per zone, substracting dma_reserved and
   memmap pages.
4) Initializes some fields of the zone structure data
5) Calls init_currently_empty_zone to initialize all the freelists
6) Calls memmap_init to initialize all pages belonging to certain zone

When called from memhotplug path, free_area_init_core() only performs
actions #1 and #4.

Action #2 is pointless as the zones do not have any pages since either the
node was freed, or we are re-using it, eitherway all zones belonging to
this node should have 0 pages.  For the same reason, action #3 results
always in manages_pages being 0.

Action #5 and #6 are performed later on when onlining the pages:
 online_pages()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->init_currently_empty_zone()
 online_pages()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->memmap_init_zone()

This patch does two things:

First, moves the node/zone initializtion to their own function, so it
allows us to create a small version of free_area_init_core, where we only
perform:

1) Initialization of pgdat internals, such as spinlock, waitqueues and more
4) Initialization of some fields of the zone structure data

These two functions are: pgdat_init_internals() and zone_init_internals().

The second thing this patch does, is to introduce
free_area_init_core_hotplug(), the memhotplug version of
free_area_init_core():

Currently, we call free_area_init_node() from the memhotplug path.  In
there, we set some pgdat's fields, and call calculate_node_totalpages().
calculate_node_totalpages() calculates the # of pages the node has.

Since the node is either new, or we are re-using it, the zones belonging
to this node should not have any pages, so there is no point to calculate
this now.

Actually, we re-set these values to 0 later on with the calls to:

reset_node_managed_pages()
reset_node_present_pages()

The # of pages per node and the # of pages per zone will be calculated when
onlining the pages:

online_pages()->move_pfn_range()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->resize_zone_range()
online_pages()->move_pfn_range()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->resize_pgdat_range()

Also, since free_area_init_core/free_area_init_node will now only get called during early init, let us replace
__paginginit with __init, so their code gets freed up.

mm/page_alloc.c: move ifdefery out of free_area_init_core · ace1db39

Oscar Salvador authored Aug 21, 2018

Patch series "Refactor free_area_init_core and add
free_area_init_core_hotplug", v6.

This patchset does three things:

 1) Clean up/refactor free_area_init_core/free_area_init_node
    by moving the ifdefery out of the functions.
 2) Move the pgdat/zone initialization in free_area_init_core to its
    own function.
 3) Introduce free_area_init_core_hotplug, a small subset of
    free_area_init_core, which is only called from memhotlug code path. In this
    way, we have:

    free_area_init_core: called during early initialization
    free_area_init_core_hotplug: called whenever a new node is allocated/re-used (memhotplug path)

This patch (of 5):

Moving the #ifdefs out of the function makes it easier to follow.

mm: remove zone_id() and make use of zone_idx() in is_dev_zone() · 89696701

Oscar Salvador authored Aug 21, 2018

is_dev_zone() is using zone_id() to check if the zone is ZONE_DEVICE.
zone_id() looks pretty much the same as zone_idx(), and while the use of
zone_idx() is quite spread in the kernel, zone_id() is only being used by
is_dev_zone().

This patch removes zone_id() and makes is_dev_zone() use zone_idx() to
check the zone, so we do not have two things with the same functionality
around.

memcg: reduce memcg tree traversals for stats collection · 8de7ecc6

Shakeel Butt authored Aug 21, 2018

Currently cgroup-v1's memcg_stat_show traverses the memcg tree ~17 times
to collect the stats while cgroup-v2's memory_stat_show traverses the
memcg tree thrice.  On a large machine, a couple thousand memcgs is very
normal and if the churn is high and memcgs stick around during to several
reasons, tens of thousands of nodes in memcg tree can exist.  This patch
has refactored and shared the stat collection code between cgroup-v1 and
cgroup-v2 and has reduced the tree traversal to just one.

I ran a simple benchmark which reads the root_mem_cgroup's stat file
1000 times in the presense of 2500 memcgs on cgroup-v1. The results are:

Without the patch:
$ time ./read-root-stat-1000-times

real    0m1.663s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m1.660s

With the patch:
$ time ./read-root-stat-1000-times

real    0m0.468s
user    0m0.000s

mm: /proc/pid/smaps_rollup: convert to single value seq_file · 258f669e

Vlastimil Babka authored Aug 21, 2018

The /proc/pid/smaps_rollup file is currently implemented via the
m_start/m_next/m_stop seq_file iterators shared with the other maps files,
that iterate over vma's.  However, the rollup file doesn't print anything
for each vma, only accumulate the stats.

There are some issues with the current code as reported in [1] - the
accumulated stats can get skewed if seq_file start()/stop() op is called
multiple times, if show() is called multiple times, and after seeks to
non-zero position.

Patch [1] fixed those within existing design, but I believe it is
fundamentally wrong to expose the vma iterators to the seq_file mechanism
when smaps_rollup shows logically a single set of values for the whole
address space.

This patch thus refactors the code to provide a single "value" at offset
0, with vma iteration to gather the stats done internally.  This fixes the
situations where results are skewed, and simplifies the code, especially
in show_smap(), at the expense of somewhat less code reuse.

mm: /proc/pid/*maps remove is_pid and related wrappers · 871305bb

Vlastimil Babka authored Aug 21, 2018

Patch series "cleanups and refactor of /proc/pid/smaps*".

The recent regression in /proc/pid/smaps made me look more into the code.
Especially the issues with smaps_rollup reported in [1] as explained in
Patch 4, which fixes them by refactoring the code.  Patches 2 and 3 are
preparations for that.  Patch 1 is me realizing that there's a lot of
boilerplate left from times where we tried (unsuccessfuly) to mark thread
stacks in the output.

Originally I had also plans to rework the translation from
/proc/pid/*maps* file offsets to the internal structures.  Now the offset
means "vma number", which is not really stable (vma's can come and go
between read() calls) and there's an extra caching of last vma's address.
My idea was that offsets would be interpreted directly as addresses, which
would also allow meaningful seeks (see the ugly seek_to_smaps_entry() in
tools/testing/selftests/vm/mlock2.h).  However loff_t is (signed) long
long so that might be insufficient somewhere for the unsigned long
addresses.

So the result is fixed issues with skewed /proc/pid/smaps_rollup results,
simpler smaps code, and a lot of unused code removed.

This patch (of 4):

Commit b7643757 ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in
proc/<pid>/maps") introduced differences between /proc/PID/maps and
/proc/PID/task/TID/maps to mark thread stacks properly, and this was
also done for smaps and numa_maps.  However it didn't work properly and
was ultimately removed by commit b18cb64e ("fs/proc: Stop trying to
report thread stacks").

Now the is_pid parameter for the related show_*() functions is unused
and we can remove it together with wrapper functions and ops structures
that differ for PID and TID cases only in this parameter.

mm/oom_kill.c: clean up oom_reap_task_mm() · 431f42fd

Michal Hocko authored Aug 21, 2018

Andrew has noticed some inconsistencies in oom_reap_task_mm.  Notably

 - Undocumented return value.

 - comment "failed to reap part..." is misleading - sounds like it's
   referring to something which happened in the past, is in fact
   referring to something which might happen in the future.

 - fails to call trace_finish_task_reaping() in one case

 - code duplication.

 - Increases mmap_sem hold time a little by moving
   trace_finish_task_reaping() inside the locked region.  So sue me ;)

 - Sharing the finish: path means that the trace event won't
   distinguish between the two sources of finishing.

Add a short explanation for the return value and fix the rest by
reorganizing the function a bit to have unified function exit paths.

mm, oom: describe task memory unit, larger PID pad · c3b78b11

Rodrigo Freire authored Aug 21, 2018

The default page memory unit of OOM task dump events might not be
intuitive and potentially misleading for the non-initiated when debugging
OOM events: These are pages and not kBs.  Add a small printk prior to the
task dump informing that the memory units are actually memory _pages_.

Also extends PID field to align on up to 7 characters.

mm, oom: remove oom_lock from oom_reaper · af5679fb

Michal Hocko authored Aug 21, 2018

oom_reaper used to rely on the oom_lock since e2fe1456 ("oom_reaper:
close race with exiting task"). We do not really need the lock anymore
though. 21292580 ("mm: oom: let oom_reap_task and exit_mmap run
concurrently") has removed serialization with the exit path based on the
mm reference count and so we do not really rely on the oom_lock anymore.

Tetsuo was arguing that at least MMF_OOM_SKIP should be set under the lock
to prevent from races when the page allocator didn't manage to get the
freed (reaped) memory in __alloc_pages_may_oom but it sees the flag later
on and move on to another victim. Although this is possible in principle
let's wait for it to actually happen in real life before we make the
locking more complex again.

Therefore remove the oom_lock for oom_reaper paths (both exit_mmap and
oom_reap_task_mm). The reaper serializes with exit_mmap by mmap_sem +
MMF_OOM_SKIP flag. There is no synchronization with out_of_memory path
now.

mm, oom: distinguish blockable mode for mmu notifiers · 93065ac7

Michal Hocko authored Aug 21, 2018

There are several blockable mmu notifiers which might sleep in
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start and that is a problem for the
oom_reaper because it needs to guarantee a forward progress so it cannot
depend on any sleepable locks.

Currently we simply back off and mark an oom victim with blockable mmu
notifiers as done after a short sleep.  That can result in selecting a new
oom victim prematurely because the previous one still hasn't torn its
memory down yet.

We can do much better though.  Even if mmu notifiers use sleepable locks
there is no reason to automatically assume those locks are held.  Moreover
majority of notifiers only care about a portion of the address space and
there is absolutely zero reason to fail when we are unmapping an unrelated
range.  Many notifiers do really block and wait for HW which is harder to
handle and we have to bail out though.

This patch handles the low hanging fruit.
__mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start gets a blockable flag and callbacks
are not allowed to sleep if the flag is set to false.  This is achieved by
using trylock instead of the sleepable lock for most callbacks and
continue as long as we do not block down the call chain.

I think we can improve that even further because there is a common pattern
to do a range lookup first and then do something about that.  The first
part can be done without a sleeping lock in most cases AFAICS.

The oom_reaper end then simply retries if there is at least one notifier
which couldn't make any progress in !blockable mode.  A retry loop is
already implemented to wait for the mmap_sem and this is basically the
same thing.

The simplest way for driver developers to test this code path is to wrap
userspace code which uses these notifiers into a memcg and set the hard
limit to hit the oom.  This can be done e.g.  after the test faults in all
the mmu notifier managed memory and set the hard limit to something really
small.  Then we are looking for a proper process tear down.
