commit f80b08fc44536a311a9f3182e50f318b79076425 upstream.
When boosting is enabled, it is observed that rate of atomic order-0
allocation failures are high due to the fact that free levels in the
system are checked with ->watermark_boost offset. This is not a problem
for sleepable allocations but for atomic allocations which looks like
regression.
This problem is seen frequently on system setup of Android kernel running
on Snapdragon hardware with 4GB RAM size. When no extfrag event occurred
in the system, ->watermark_boost factor is zero, thus the watermark
configurations in the system are:
_watermark = (
[WMARK_MIN] = 1272, --> ~5MB
[WMARK_LOW] = 9067, --> ~36MB
[WMARK_HIGH] = 9385), --> ~38MB
watermark_boost = 0
After launching some memory hungry applications in Android which can cause
extfrag events in the system to an extent that ->watermark_boost can be
set to max i.e. default boost factor makes it to 150% of high watermark.
_watermark = (
[WMARK_MIN] = 1272, --> ~5MB
[WMARK_LOW] = 9067, --> ~36MB
[WMARK_HIGH] = 9385), --> ~38MB
watermark_boost = 14077, -->~57MB
With default system configuration, for an atomic order-0 allocation to
succeed, having free memory of ~2MB will suffice. But boosting makes the
min_wmark to ~61MB thus for an atomic order-0 allocation to be successful
system should have minimum of ~23MB of free memory(from calculations of
zone_watermark_ok(), min = 3/4(min/2)). But failures are observed despite
system is having ~20MB of free memory. In the testing, this is
reproducible as early as first 300secs since boot and with furtherlowram
configurations(<2GB) it is observed as early as first 150secs since boot.
These failures can be avoided by excluding the ->watermark_boost in
watermark caluculations for atomic order-0 allocations.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
