Subject: [PATCH v2] xfs: Print comm name and pid when open-coded __GFP_NOFAIL allocation stucks
Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2015 10:23:57 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1442798637-5941-1-git-send-email-penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150920231858.GY3902@dastard>

This patch adds comm name and pid to warning messages printed by
kmem_alloc(), kmem_zone_alloc() and xfs_buf_allocate_memory().
This will help telling which memory allocations (e.g. kernel worker
threads, OOM victim tasks, neither) are stalling because these functions
are passing __GFP_NOWARN which suppresses not only backtrace but comm name
and pid.

  [  135.568662] Out of memory: Kill process 9593 (a.out) score 998 or sacrifice child

  [  141.633574] XFS: a.out(9658) possible memory allocation deadlock in xfs_buf_allocate_memory (mode:0x1250)

(Strictly speaking, we want task_lock()/task_unlock() when reading comm name.)
