To deal with this, mmap() is able to trim off + the excess and return it to the allocator. + + If trimming is enabled, the excess is trimmed off and returned to the + system allocator, which can cause extra fragmentation, particularly + if there are a lot of transient processes. + + If trimming is disabled, the excess is kept, but not used, which for + long-term mappings means that the space is wasted. + + Trimming can be dynamically controlled through a sysctl option + (/proc/sys/vm/nr_trim_pages) which specifies the minimum number of + excess pages there must be before trimming should occur, or zero if + no trimming is to occur. + + This option specifies the initial value of this option. The default + of 1 says that all excess pages should be trimmed. + + See Documentation/nommu-mmap.txt for more information. diff --git a/mm/nommu.c b/mm/nommu.c index 809998aa7b50..b571ef707428 100644 --- a/mm/nommu.c +++ b/mm/nommu.c @@ -66,7 +66,7 @@ struct percpu_counter vm_committed_as; int sysctl_overcommit_memory = OVERCOMMIT_GUESS; /* heuristic overcommit */ int sysctl_overcommit_ratio = 50; /* default is 50% */ int sysctl_max_map_count = DEFAULT_MAX_MAP_COUNT; -int sysctl_nr_trim_pages = 1; /* page trimming behaviour */ +int sysctl_nr_trim_pages = CONFIG_NOMMU_INITIAL_TRIM_EXCESS; int heap_stack_gap = 0; atomic_long_t mmap_pages_allocated; @@ -515,8 +515,6 @@ static void add_nommu_region(struct vm_region *region) validate_nommu_regions(); - BUG_ON(region->vm_start & ~PAGE_MASK); - parent = NULL; p = &nommu_region_tree.rb_node; while (*p) { diff --git a/mm/oom_kill.c b/mm/oom_kill.c index 2f3166e308d9..92bcf1db16b2 100644 --- a/mm/oom_kill.c +++ b/mm/oom_kill.c @@ -514,34 +514,32 @@ void clear_zonelist_oom(struct zonelist *zonelist, gfp_t gfp_mask) */ static void __out_of_memory(gfp_t gfp_mask, int order) { - if (sysctl_oom_kill_allocating_task) { - oom_kill_process(current, gfp_mask, order, 0, NULL, - "Out of memory (oom_kill_allocating_task)"); - - } else { - unsigned long points; - struct task_struct *p; - -retry: - /* - * Rambo mode: Shoot down a process and hope it solves whatever - * issues we may have. - */ - p = select_bad_process(&points, NULL); + struct task_struct *p; + unsigned long points; - if (PTR_ERR(p) == -1UL) + if (sysctl_oom_kill_allocating_task) + if (!oom_kill_process(current, gfp_mask, order, 0, NULL, + "Out of memory (oom_kill_allocating_task)")) return; +retry: + /* + * Rambo mode: Shoot down a process and hope it solves whatever + * issues we may have. + */ + p = select_bad_process(&points, NULL); - /* Found nothing?!?!
