Even on 64 bit kernel, the mmap failure can happen for a 32 bit task. Virtual memory space shortage of a task on mmap is reported to userspace as -ENOMEM. It can be confused as physical memory shortage of overall system. The vm_unmapped_area can be called to by some drivers or other kernel core system like filesystem. In my platform, GPU driver calls to vm_unmapped_area and the driver returns -ENOMEM even in GPU side shortage. It can be hard to distinguish which code layer returns the -ENOMEM. Create mmap trace file and add trace point of vm_unmapped_area. i.e.) 277.156599: vm_unmapped_area: addr=77e0d03000 err=0 total_vm=0x17014b flags=0x1 len=0x400000 lo=0x8000 hi=0x7878c27000 mask=0x0 ofs=0x1 342.838740: vm_unmapped_area: addr=0 err=-12 total_vm=0xffb08 flags=0x0 len=0x100000 lo=0x40000000 hi=0xfffff000 mask=0x0 ofs=0x22 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: prefix address printk with 0x, per Matthew] Signed-off-by: Jaewon Kim <jaewon31.kim@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Cc: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Michel Lespinasse <walken@google.com> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200320055823.27089-3-jaewon31.kim@samsung.com Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
