Tetsuo has reported that oom_kill_allocating_task=1 will cause
oom_reaper_list corruption because oom_kill_process doesn't follow
standard OOM exclusion (aka ignores TIF_MEMDIE) and allows to enqueue
the same task multiple times - e.g. by sacrificing the same child
multiple times.
This patch fixes the issue by introducing a new MMF_OOM_KILLED mm flag
which is set in oom_kill_process atomically and oom reaper is disabled
if the flag was already set.

wake_oom_reaper has allowed only 1 oom victim to be queued. The main
reason for that was the simplicity as other solutions would require some
way of queuing. The current approach is racy and that was deemed
sufficient as the oom_reaper is considered a best effort approach to
help with oom handling when the OOM victim cannot terminate in a
reasonable time. The race could lead to missing an oom victim which can
get stuck
out_of_memory
wake_oom_reaper
cmpxchg // OK
oom_reaper
oom_reap_task
__oom_reap_task
oom_victim terminates
atomic_inc_not_zero // fail
out_of_memory
wake_oom_reaper
cmpxchg // fails
task_to_reap = NULL
This race requires 2 OOM invocations in a short time period which is not
very likely but certainly not impossible. E.g. the original victim
might have not released a lot of memory for some reason.
The situation would improve considerably if wake_oom_reaper used a more
robust queuing. This is what this patch implements. This means adding
oom_reaper_list list_head into task_struct (eat a hole before embeded
thread_struct for that purpose) and a oom_reaper_lock spinlock for
queuing synchronization. wake_oom_reaper will then add the task on the
queue and oom_reaper will dequeue it.

When oom_reaper manages to unmap all the eligible vmas there shouldn't
be much of the freable memory held by the oom victim left anymore so it
makes sense to clear the TIF_MEMDIE flag for the victim and allow the
OOM killer to select another task.
The lack of TIF_MEMDIE also means that the victim cannot access memory
reserves anymore but that shouldn't be a problem because it would get
the access again if it needs to allocate and hits the OOM killer again
due to the fatal_signal_pending resp. PF_EXITING check. We can safely
hide the task from the OOM killer because it is clearly not a good
candidate anymore as everyhing reclaimable has been torn down already.
This patch will allow to cap the time an OOM victim can keep TIF_MEMDIE
and thus hold off further global OOM killer actions granted the oom
reaper is able to take mmap_sem for the associated mm struct. This is
not guaranteed now but further steps should make sure that mmap_sem for
write should be blocked killable which will help to reduce such a lock
contention. This is not done by this patch.
Note that exit_oom_victim might be called on a remote task from
__oom_reap_task now so we have to check and clear the flag atomically
otherwise we might race and underflow oom_victims or wake up waiters too
early.

This patch (of 5):
This is based on the idea from Mel Gorman discussed during LSFMM 2015
and independently brought up by Oleg Nesterov.
The OOM killer currently allows to kill only a single task in a good
hope that the task will terminate in a reasonable time and frees up its
memory. Such a task (oom victim) will get an access to memory reserves
via mark_oom_victim to allow a forward progress should there be a need
for additional memory during exit path.
It has been shown (e.g. by Tetsuo Handa) that it is not that hard to
construct workloads which break the core assumption mentioned above and
the OOM victim might take unbounded amount of time to exit because it
might be blocked in the uninterruptible state waiting for an event (e.g.
lock) which is blocked by another task looping in the page allocator.
This patch reduces the probability of such a lockup by introducing a
specialized kernel thread (oom_reaper) which tries to reclaim additional
memory by preemptively reaping the anonymous or swapped out memory owned
by the oom victim under an assumption that such a memory won't be needed
when its owner is killed and kicked from the userspace anyway. There is
one notable exception to this, though, if the OOM victim was in the
process of coredumping the result would be incomplete. This is
considered a reasonable constrain because the overall system health is
more important than debugability of a particular application.
A kernel thread has been chosen because we need a reliable way of
invocation so workqueue context is not appropriate because all the
workers might be busy (e.g. allocating memory). Kswapd which sounds
like another good fit is not appropriate as well because it might get
blocked on locks during reclaim as well.
oom_reaper has to take mmap_sem on the target task for reading so the
solution is not 100% because the semaphore might be held or blocked for
write but the probability is reduced considerably wrt. basically any
lock blocking forward progress as described above. In order to prevent
from blocking on the lock without any forward progress we are using only
a trylock and retry 10 times with a short sleep in between. Users of
mmap_sem which need it for write should be carefully reviewed to use
_killable waiting as much as possible and reduce allocations requests
done with the lock held to absolute minimum to reduce the risk even
further.
The API between oom killer and oom reaper is quite trivial.
wake_oom_reaper updates mm_to_reap with cmpxchg to guarantee only
NULL->mm transition and oom_reaper clear this atomically once it is done
with the work. This means that only a single mm_struct can be reaped at
the time. As the operation is potentially disruptive we are trying to
limit it to the ncessary minimum and the reaper blocks any updates while
it operates on an mm. mm_struct is pinned by mm_count to allow parallel
exit_mmap and a race is detected by atomic_inc_not_zero(mm_users).

If dentry has no lease, ceph_d_revalidate() previously return 0.
This causes VFS to invalidate the dentry and create a new dentry
for later lookup. Invalidating a dentry also detach any underneath
mount points. So mount point inside cephfs can disapear mystically
(even the mount point is not modified by other hosts).
The fix is using lookup request to revalidate dentry without lease.
This can partly solve the mount points disapear issue (as long as
the mount point is not modified by other hosts)

When security is enabled, security module can call filesystem's
getxattr/setxattr callbacks during d_instantiate(). For cephfs,
d_instantiate() is usually called by MDS' dispatch thread, while
handling MDS reply. If the MDS reply does not include xattrs and
corresponding caps, getxattr/setxattr need to send a new request
to MDS and waits for the reply. This makes MDS' dispatch sleep,
nobody handles later MDS replies.
The fix is make sure lookup/atomic_open reply include xattrs and
corresponding caps. So getxattr can be handled by cached xattrs.
This requires some modification to both MDS and request message.
(Client tells MDS what caps it wants; MDS encodes proper caps in
the reply)
Smack security module may call setxattr during d_instantiate().
Unlike getxattr, we can't force MDS to issue CEPH_CAP_XATTR_EXCL
to us. So just make setxattr return error when called by MDS'
dispatch thread.

ceph_empty_snapc->num_snaps == 0 at all times. Passing such a snapc to
ceph_osdc_alloc_request() (possibly through ceph_osdc_new_request()) is
equivalent to passing NULL, as ceph_osdc_alloc_request() uses it only
for sizing the request message.
Further, in all four cases the subsequent ceph_osdc_build_request() is
passed NULL for snapc, meaning that 0 is encoded for seq and num_snaps
and making ceph_empty_snapc entirely useless. The two cases where it
actually mattered were removed in commits 8605609049 ("ceph: avoid
sending unnessesary FLUSHSNAP message") and 23078637e0 ("ceph: fix
