[v11 0/6] cgroup-aware OOM killer

[Roman Gushchin]

This patchset makes the OOM killer cgroup-aware.

v11:
  - Fixed an issue with skipping the root mem cgroup
    (discovered by Shakeel Butt)
  - Moved a check in __oom_kill_process() to the memmory.oom_group
    patch, added corresponding comments
  - Added a note about ignoring tasks with oom_score_adj -1000
    (proposed by Michal Hocko)
  - Rebase on top of mm tree

v10:
  - Separate oom_group introduction into a standalone patch
  - Stop propagating oom_group
  - Make oom_group delegatable
  - Do not try to kill the biggest task in the first order,
    if the whole cgroup is going to be killed
  - Stop caching oom_score on struct memcg, optimize victim
    memcg selection
  - Drop dmesg printing (for further refining)
  - Small refactorings and comments added here and there
  - Rebase on top of mm tree

v9:
  - Change siblings-to-siblings comparison to the tree-wide search,
    make related refactorings
  - Make oom_group implicitly propagated down by the tree
  - Fix an issue with task selection in root cgroup

v8:
  - Do not kill tasks with OOM_SCORE_ADJ -1000
  - Make the whole thing opt-in with cgroup mount option control
  - Drop oom_priority for further discussions
  - Kill the whole cgroup if oom_group is set and it's
    memory.max is reached
  - Update docs and commit messages

v7:
  - __oom_kill_process() drops reference to the victim task
  - oom_score_adj -1000 is always respected
  - Renamed oom_kill_all to oom_group
  - Dropped oom_prio range, converted from short to int
  - Added a cgroup v2 mount option to disable cgroup-aware OOM killer
  - Docs updated
  - Rebased on top of mmotm

v6:
  - Renamed oom_control.chosen to oom_control.chosen_task
  - Renamed oom_kill_all_tasks to oom_kill_all
  - Per-node NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE accounting
  - Several minor fixes and cleanups
  - Docs updated

v5:
  - Rebased on top of Michal Hocko's patches, which have changed the
    way how OOM victims becoming an access to the memory
    reserves. Dropped corresponding part of this patchset
  - Separated the oom_kill_process() splitting into a standalone commit
  - Added debug output (suggested by David Rientjes)
  - Some minor fixes

v4:
  - Reworked per-cgroup oom_score_adj into oom_priority
    (based on ideas by David Rientjes)
  - Tasks with oom_score_adj -1000 are never selected if
    oom_kill_all_tasks is not set
  - Memcg victim selection code is reworked, and
    synchronization is based on finding tasks with OOM victim marker,
    rather then on global counter
  - Debug output is dropped
  - Refactored TIF_MEMDIE usage

v3:
  - Merged commits 1-4 into 6
  - Separated oom_score_adj logic and debug output into separate commits
  - Fixed swap accounting

v2:
  - Reworked victim selection based on feedback
    from Michal Hocko, Vladimir Davydov and Johannes Weiner
  - "Kill all tasks" is now an opt-in option, by default
    only one process will be killed
  - Added per-cgroup oom_score_adj
  - Refined oom score calculations, suggested by Vladimir Davydov
  - Converted to a patchset
