For quick per-memcg indexing, slab caches and list_lru structures maintain linear arrays of descriptors. As the number of concurrent memory cgroups in the system goes up, this requires large contiguous allocations (8k cgroups = order-5, 16k cgroups = order-6 etc.) for every existing slab cache and list_lru, which can easily fail on loaded systems. E.g.: mkdir: page allocation failure: order:5, mode:0x14040c0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_COMP), nodemask=(null) CPU: 1 PID: 6399 Comm: mkdir Not tainted 4.13.0-mm1-00065-g720bbe532b7c-dirty #481 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.10.2-20170228_101828-anatol 04/01/2014 Call Trace: ? __alloc_pages_direct_compact+0x4c/0x110 __alloc_pages_nodemask+0xf50/0x1430 alloc_pages_current+0x60/0xc0 kmalloc_order_trace+0x29/0x1b0 __kmalloc+0x1f4/0x320 memcg_update_all_list_lrus+0xca/0x2e0 mem_cgroup_css_alloc+0x612/0x670 cgroup_apply_control_enable+0x19e/0x360 cgroup_mkdir+0x322/0x490 kernfs_iop_mkdir+0x55/0x80 vfs_mkdir+0xd0/0x120 SyS_mkdirat+0x6c/0xe0 SyS_mkdir+0x14/0x20 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x18/0xad Mem-Info: active_anon:2965 inactive_anon:19 isolated_anon:0 active_file:100270 inactive_file:98846 isolated_file:0 unevictable:0 dirty:0 writeback:0 unstable:0 slab_reclaimable:7328 slab_unreclaimable:16402 mapped:771 shmem:52 pagetables:278 bounce:0 free:13718 free_pcp:0 free_cma:0 This output is from an artificial reproducer, but we have repeatedly observed order-7 failures in production in the Facebook fleet. These systems become useless as they cannot run more jobs, even though there is plenty of memory to allocate 128 individual pages. Use kvmalloc and kvzalloc to fall back to vmalloc space if these arrays prove too large for allocating them physically contiguous.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
