From 68aaee147e597b495622b7c9038e5922c7c61f57 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tetsuo Handa Date: Fri, 22 Jul 2022 19:45:39 +0900 Subject: mm: memcontrol: fix potential oom_lock recursion deadlock syzbot is reporting GFP_KERNEL allocation with oom_lock held when reporting memcg OOM [1]. If this allocation triggers the global OOM situation then the system can livelock because the GFP_KERNEL allocation with oom_lock held cannot trigger the global OOM killer because __alloc_pages_may_oom() fails to hold oom_lock. Fix this problem by removing the allocation from memory_stat_format() completely, and pass static buffer when calling from memcg OOM path. Note that the caller holding filesystem lock was the trigger for syzbot to report this locking dependency. Doing GFP_KERNEL allocation with filesystem lock held can deadlock the system even without involving OOM situation.
