Shakeel Butt 246dfbc125 mm: io_uring: allow oom-killer from io_uring_setup
[ Upstream commit 0a3f1e0bea ]

On an overcommitted system which is running multiple workloads of
varying priorities, it is preferred to trigger an oom-killer to kill a
low priority workload than to let the high priority workload receiving
ENOMEMs. On our memory overcommitted systems, we are seeing a lot of
ENOMEMs instead of oom-kills because io_uring_setup callchain is using
__GFP_NORETRY gfp flag which avoids the oom-killer. Let's remove it and
allow the oom-killer to kill a lower priority job.

README

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.
