From b45b5bd65f668a665db40d093e4e1fe563533608 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Gibson Date: Wed, 22 Mar 2006 00:08:55 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] hugepage: Strict page reservation for hugepage inodes These days, hugepages are demand-allocated at first fault time. There's a somewhat dubious (and racy) heuristic when making a new mmap() to check if there are enough available hugepages to fully satisfy that mapping. A particularly obvious case where the heuristic breaks down is where a process maps its hugepages not as a single chunk, but as a bunch of individually mmap()ed (or shmat()ed) blocks without touching and instantiating the pages in between allocations. In this case the size of each block is compared against the total number of available hugepages. It's thus easy for the process to become overcommitted, because each block mapping will succeed, although the total number of hugepages required by all blocks exceeds the number available. In particular, this defeats such a program which will detect a mapping failure and adjust its hugepage usage downward accordingly. The patch below addresses this problem, by strictly reserving a number of physical hugepages for hugepage inodes which have been mapped, but not instatiated. MAP_SHARED mappings are thus "safe" - they will fail on mmap(), not later with an OOM SIGKILL. MAP_PRIVATE mappings can still trigger an OOM. (Actually SHARED mappings can technically still OOM, but only if the sysadmin explicitly reduces the hugepage pool between mapping and instantiation) This patch appears to address the problem at hand - it allows DB2 to start correctly, for instance, which previously suffered the failure described above. This patch causes no regressions on the libhugetblfs testsuite, and makes a test (designed to catch this problem) pass which previously failed (ppc64, POWER5).
