It's possible to livelock the page allocator if a thread has mm->mmap_sem
and fails to make forward progress because the oom killer selects another
thread sharing the same ->mm to kill that cannot exit until the semaphore
is dropped.
The oom killer will not kill multiple tasks at the same time; each oom
killed task must exit before another task may be killed. Thus, if one
thread is holding mm->mmap_sem and cannot allocate memory, all threads
sharing the same ->mm are blocked from exiting as well. In the oom kill
case, that means the thread holding mm->mmap_sem will never free
additional memory since it cannot get access to memory reserves and the
thread that depends on it with access to memory reserves cannot exit
because it cannot acquire the semaphore. Thus, the page allocators
livelocks.
When the oom killer is called and current happens to have a pending
SIGKILL, this patch automatically gives it access to memory reserves and
returns. Upon returning to the page allocator, its allocation will
hopefully succeed so it can quickly exit and free its memory. If not, the
page allocator will fail the allocation if it is not __GFP_NOFAIL.

When find_lock_task_mm() returns a thread other than p in dump_tasks(),
its name should be displayed instead. This is the thread that will be
targeted by the oom killer, not its mm-less parent.
This also allows us to safely dereference task->comm without needing
get_task_comm().
While we're here, remove the cast on task_cpu(task) as Andrew suggested.

dump_task() should use find_lock_task_mm() too. It is necessary for
protecting task-exiting race.
dump_tasks() currently filters any task that does not have an attached
->mm since it incorrectly assumes that it must either be in the process of
exiting and has detached its memory or that it's a kernel thread;
multithreaded tasks may actually have subthreads that have a valid ->mm
pointer and thus those threads should actually be displayed. This change
finds those threads, if they exist, and emit their information along with
the rest of the candidate tasks for kill.

Almost all ->mm == NULL checks in oom_kill.c are wrong.
The current code assumes that the task without ->mm has already released
its memory and ignores the process. However this is not necessarily true
when this process is multithreaded, other live sub-threads can use this
->mm.
- Remove the "if (!p->mm)" check in select_bad_process(), it is
just wrong.
- Add the new helper, find_lock_task_mm(), which finds the live
thread which uses the memory and takes task_lock() to pin ->mm
- change oom_badness() to use this helper instead of just checking
->mm != NULL.
- As David pointed out, select_bad_process() must never choose the
task without ->mm, but no matter what oom_badness() returns the
task can be chosen if nothing else has been found yet.
Change oom_badness() to return int, change it to return -1 if
find_lock_task_mm() fails, and change select_bad_process() to
check points >= 0.
Note! This patch is not enough, we need more changes.
- oom_badness() was fixed, but oom_kill_task() still ignores
the task without ->mm
- oom_forkbomb_penalty() should use find_lock_task_mm() too,
and it also needs other changes to actually find the first
first-descendant children
This will be addressed later.

select_bad_process() checks PF_EXITING to detect the task which is going
to release its memory, but the logic is very wrong.
- a single process P with the dead group leader disables
select_bad_process() completely, it will always return
ERR_PTR() while P can live forever
- if the PF_EXITING task has already released its ->mm
it doesn't make sense to expect it is goiing to free
more memory (except task_struct/etc)
Change the code to ignore the PF_EXITING tasks without ->mm.

KSM reference counts can cause an anon_vma to exist after the processe it
belongs to have already exited. Because the anon_vma lock now lives in
the root anon_vma, we need to ensure that the root anon_vma stays around
until after all the "child" anon_vmas have been freed.
The obvious way to do this is to have a "child" anon_vma take a reference
to the root in anon_vma_fork. When the anon_vma is freed at munmap or
process exit, we drop the refcount in anon_vma_unlink and possibly free
the root anon_vma.
The KSM anon_vma reference count function also needs to be modified to
deal with the possibility of freeing 2 levels of anon_vma. The easiest
way to do this is to break out the KSM magic and make it generic.
When compiling without CONFIG_KSM, this code is compiled out.

Always (and only) lock the root (oldest) anon_vma whenever we do something
in an anon_vma. The recently introduced anon_vma scalability is due to
the rmap code scanning only the VMAs that need to be scanned. Many common
operations still took the anon_vma lock on the root anon_vma, so always
taking that lock is not expected to introduce any scalability issues.
However, always taking the same lock does mean we only need to take one
lock, which means rmap_walk on pages from any anon_vma in the vma is
excluded from occurring during an munmap, expand_stack or other operation
that needs to exclude rmap_walk and similar functions.
Also add the proper locking to vma_adjust.

Track the root (oldest) anon_vma in each anon_vma tree. Because we only
take the lock on the root anon_vma, we cannot use the lock on higher-up
anon_vmas to lock anything. This makes it impossible to do an indirect
lookup of the root anon_vma, since the data structures could go away from
under us.
However, a direct pointer is safe because the root anon_vma is always the
last one that gets freed on munmap or exit, by virtue of the same_vma list
order and unlink_anon_vmas walking the list forward.

kunmap_atomic() is currently at level -4 on Rusty's "Hard To Misuse"
list[1] ("Follow common convention and you'll get it wrong"), except in
some architectures when CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is set[2][3].
kunmap() takes a pointer to a struct page; kunmap_atomic(), however, takes
takes a pointer to within the page itself. This seems to once in a while
trip people up (the convention they are following is the one from
kunmap()).
Make it much harder to misuse, by moving it to level 9 on Rusty's list[4]
("The compiler/linker won't let you get it wrong"). This is done by
refusing to build if the type of its first argument is a pointer to a
struct page.
The real kunmap_atomic() is renamed to kunmap_atomic_notypecheck()
(which is what you would call in case for some strange reason calling it
with a pointer to a struct page is not incorrect in your code).
The previous version of this patch was compile tested on x86-64.
[1] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-04-01.html
[2] In these cases, it is at level 5, "Do it right or it will always
break at runtime."
[3] At least mips and powerpc look very similar, and sparc also seems to
share a common ancestor with both; there seems to be quite some
degree of copy-and-paste coding here. The include/asm/highmem.h file
for these three archs mention x86 CPUs at its top.

undoing - they aren't all in the right places, however.
