[PATCH v2 0/3] mm: fix oom-killer not being invoked when demotion is enabled
Posted by Akinobu Mita 1 month, 2 weeks ago
On systems with multiple memory-tiers consisting of DRAM and CXL memory,
the OOM killer is not invoked properly.

This patchset includes a fix for the issue and an enhancement that makes
the issue reproducible with numa emulation.

v2:
- fix the explanation about cmdline parameter in the commit log
- add document for NUMA emulation
- describe reproducibility with !mglru in the commit log
- removed unnecessary consideration for scan control when checking demotion_nid watermarks

v1:

  mm: memory-tiers, numa_emu: enable to create memory tiers using fake
    numa nodes

  mm/vmscan: don't demote if there is not enough free memory in the
    lower memory tier
