Tetsuo Handa 7bd49f06fd memcg, oom: don't require __GFP_FS when invoking memcg OOM killer
commit f9c645621a28e37813a1de96d9cbd89cde94a1e4 upstream.

Masoud Sharbiani noticed that commit 29ef680ae7c21110 ("memcg, oom: move
out_of_memory back to the charge path") broke memcg OOM called from
__xfs_filemap_fault() path.  It turned out that try_charge() is retrying
forever without making forward progress because mem_cgroup_oom(GFP_NOFS)
cannot invoke the OOM killer due to commit 3da88fb3bacfaa33 ("mm, oom:
move GFP_NOFS check to out_of_memory").

Allowing forced charge due to being unable to invoke memcg OOM killer will
lead to global OOM situation.  Also, just returning -ENOMEM will be risky
because OOM path is lost and some paths (e.g.  get_user_pages()) will leak
-ENOMEM.  Therefore, invoking memcg OOM killer (despite GFP_NOFS) will be
the only choice we can choose for now.

Until 29ef680ae7c21110, we were able to invoke memcg OOM killer when
GFP_KERNEL reclaim failed [1].  But since 29ef680ae7c21110, we need to
invoke memcg OOM killer when GFP_NOFS reclaim failed [2].  Although in the
past we did invoke memcg OOM killer for GFP_NOFS [3], we might get
pre-mature memcg OOM reports due to this patch.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
