mm: move mm flags to mm_types.h

2024-11-06T00:56:26+00:00

The types of mm flags are now far beyond the core dump related features. 
This patch moves mm flags from linux/sched/coredump.h to linux/mm_types.h.
The linux/sched/coredump.h has include the mm_types.h, so the C files
related to coredump does not need to change head file inclusion.  In
addition, the inclusion of sched/coredump.h now can be deleted from the C
files that irrelevant to core dump.

memory: remove the now superfluous sentinel element from ctl_table array

2024-04-26T03:56:32+00:00

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the empty
elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which will reduce
the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory bloat by ~64
bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)

Remove sentinel from all files under mm/ that register a sysctl table.

mm: update mark_victim tracepoints fields

2024-03-05T01:01:16+00:00

The current implementation of the mark_victim tracepoint provides only the
process ID (pid) of the victim process.  This limitation poses challenges
for userspace tools requiring real-time OOM analysis and intervention. 
Although this information is available from the kernel logs, it’s not
the appropriate format to provide OOM notifications.  In Android, BPF
programs are used with the mark_victim trace events to notify userspace of
an OOM kill.  For consistency, update the trace event to include the same
information about the OOMed victim as the kernel logs.

- UID
   In Android each installed application has a unique UID. Including
   the `uid` assists in correlating OOM events with specific apps.

- Process Name (comm)
   Enables identification of the affected process.

- OOM Score
  Will allow userspace to get additional insight of the relative kill
  priority of the OOM victim. In Android, the oom_score_adj is used to
  categorize app state (foreground, background, etc.), which aids in
  analyzing user-perceptible impacts of OOM events [1].

- Total VM, RSS Stats, and pgtables
  Amount of memory used by the victim that will, potentially, be freed up
  by killing it.

mm, oom:dump_tasks add rss detailed information printing

2023-12-11T00:51:53+00:00

When the system is under oom, it prints out the RSS information of each
process.  However, we don't know the size of rss_anon, rss_file, and
rss_shmem.

To distinguish the memory occupied by anonymous or file mappings
or shmem, could help us identify the root cause of the oom.

So this patch adds RSS details, which refers to the /proc//status[1].
It can help us know more about process memory usage.

Example of oom including the new rss_* fields:
[ 1630.902466] Tasks state (memory values in pages):
[ 1630.902870] [  pid  ]   uid  tgid total_vm      rss rss_anon rss_file rss_shmem pgtables_bytes swapents oom_score_adj name
[ 1630.903619] [    149]     0   149      486      288        0      288         0    36864        0             0 ash

mm/oom_killer: simplify OOM killer info dump helper

2023-10-25T23:47:10+00:00

There is only one caller wants to dump the kill victim info, so just let
it call the standalone helper, no need to make the generic info dump
helper take an extra argument for that.

mm: remove redundant K() macro definition

2023-08-21T20:37:44+00:00

Patch series "cleanup with helper macro K()".

Use helper macro K() to improve code readability.  No functional
modification involved.  Remove redundant K() macro definition.


This patch (of 7):

Since commit eb8589b4f8c1 ("mm: move mem_init_print_info() to mm_init.c"),
the K() macro definition has been moved to mm/internal.h.  Therefore, the
definitions in mm/memcontrol.c, mm/backing-dev.c and mm/oom_kill.c are
redundant.  Drop redundant definitions.

mmu_notifier_range_update_to_read_only() was originally introduced in
commit c6d23413f81b ("mm/mmu_notifier:
mmu_notifier_range_update_to_read_only() helper") as an optimisation for
device drivers that know a range has only been mapped read-only.  However
there are no users of this feature so remove it.  As it is the only user
of the struct mmu_notifier_range.vma field remove that also.

mm: reduce noise in show_mem for lowmem allocations

2022-09-27T02:46:29+00:00

While discussing early DMA pool pre-allocation failure with Christoph [1]
I have realized that the allocation failure warning is rather noisy for
constrained allocations like GFP_DMA{32}.  Those zones are usually not
populated on all nodes very often as their memory ranges are constrained.

This is an attempt to reduce the ballast that doesn't provide any relevant
information for those allocation failures investigation.  Please note that
I have only compile tested it (in my default config setup) and I am
throwing it mostly to see what people think about it.
