Well, maybe we should not use memory reserves at all.
I retested with this patch and kmallocwd patch applied. While depletion
of memory reserves by wb_start_writeback() no longer occurs, I can
still observe order-0 page allocation failure messages caused by
GFP_ATOMIC allocation requests because wb_start_writeback() consumed
memory reserves to the level where GFP_ATOMIC starts failing.

----------
While no messages printed under OOM-livelock situation is annoying and
page allocation failure messages by GFP_ATOMIC helps us to know we are
under OOM-livelock situation, we will need to kill more processes if we
allow wb_start_writeback() to consume half of memory reserves.
wb_start_writeback() should not try to consume until min: watermark so
that other GFP_NOIO allocations can succeed. But there is not such gfp
flags.
Anyway, please pick up below patch if you think GFP_NOWAIT is better than
GFP_ATOMIC.

Subject: [PATCH] mm,writeback: Don't use memory reserves for
wb_start_writeback
When writeback operation cannot make forward progress because memory
allocation requests needed for doing I/O cannot be satisfied (e.g.
under OOM-livelock situation), we can observe flood of order-0 page
allocation failure messages caused by complete depletion of memory
reserves.
This is caused by unconditionally allocating "struct wb_writeback_work"
objects using GFP_ATOMIC from PF_MEMALLOC context.
__alloc_pages_nodemask() {
__alloc_pages_slowpath() {
__alloc_pages_direct_reclaim() {
__perform_reclaim() {
current->flags |= PF_MEMALLOC;
try_to_free_pages() {
do_try_to_free_pages() {
wakeup_flusher_threads() {
wb_start_writeback() {
kzalloc(sizeof(*work), GFP_ATOMIC) {
/* ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS via PF_MEMALLOC */
}
}
}
}
}
current->flags &= ~PF_MEMALLOC;
}
}
}
}
Since I/O is stalling, allocating writeback requests forever shall deplete
memory reserves. Fortunately, since wb_start_writeback() can fall back to
wb_wakeup() when allocating "struct wb_writeback_work" failed, we don't
need to allow wb_start_writeback() to use memory reserves.
