This allows to spill memory allocations over to any other node which has Normal (or other lower) zones and as such it breaks cpuset isolation. As I've pointed out in the reply to your cover letter it seems that this is more of a misconfiguration than a bug. I do understand that killing any other task which can allocate from this node is quite goofy and that is something we can detect and better target. E.g. fail the allocation or kill the allocating context when the allocation request cannot be satisfied by no means. But breaking the node isolation which is a user contract sounds like a bad workaround. Binding to a movable node(s) without any other fallback is simply something you shouldn't do. > Signed-off-by: Feng Tang <feng.tang@intel.com> > --- > mm/page_alloc.c | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ > 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/mm/page_alloc.c b/mm/page_alloc.c > index d772206..efd49a9 100644 > --- a/mm/page_alloc.c > +++ b/mm/page_alloc.c > @@ -4669,6 +4669,28 @@ __alloc_pages_slowpath(gfp_t gfp_mask, unsigned int order, > if (!ac->preferred_zoneref->zone) > goto nopage; > > + /* > + * If the task's target memory nodes only has movable zones, while the > + * gfp_mask allowed zone is lower than ZONE_MOVABLE, loose the check > + * for __GFP_HARDWALL and ALLOC_CPUSET, otherwise it could trigger OOM > + * killing, which still can not solve this policy check. > + */ > + if (ac->highest_zoneidx <= ZONE_NORMAL) { > + int nid; > + unsigned long unmovable = 0; > + > + /* FIXME: this could be a separate function */ > + for_each_node_mask(nid, cpuset_current_mems_allowed) { > + unmovable += NODE_DATA(nid)->node_present_pages - > + NODE_DATA(nid)->node_zones[ZONE_MOVABLE].present_pages; > + } > + > + if (!unmovable) { > + gfp_mask &= ~(__GFP_HARDWALL); > + alloc_flags &= ~ALLOC_CPUSET; > + } > + } > + > if (alloc_flags & ALLOC_KSWAPD) > wake_all_kswapds(order, gfp_mask, ac); > > -- > 2.7.4 >

With the incoming of memory hotplug feature and persitent memory, in some platform there are memory nodes which only have movable zone. Users may bind some of their workload(like docker/container) to these nodes, and there are many reports of OOM and page allocation failures, one callstack is: [ 1387.877565] runc:[2:INIT] invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x500cc2(GFP_HIGHUSER|__GFP_ACCOUNT), order=0, oom_score_adj=0 [ 1387.877568] CPU: 8 PID: 8291 Comm: runc:[2:INIT] Tainted: G W I E 5.8.2-0.g71b519a-default #1 openSUSE Tumbleweed (unreleased) [ 1387.877569] Hardware name: Dell Inc.

Some of them can fall back to other nodes with NORMAL/DMA32/DMA zones, but others are blocked by the __GFP_HARDWALL or ALLOC_CPUSET check, and cause OOM killing. But OOM killing won't do any help here, as this is not an issue of lack of free memory, but simply blocked by the node binding policy check. So loose the policy check for this case.
