MGLRU has a LRU list for each zone for each type (anon/file) in each
generation:
long nr_pages[MAX_NR_GENS][ANON_AND_FILE][MAX_NR_ZONES];
The min_seq (oldest generation) can progress independently for each
type but the max_seq (youngest generation) is shared for both anon and
file. This is to maintain a common frame of reference.
In order for eviction to advance the min_seq of a type, all the per-zone
lists in the oldest generation of that type must be empty.
The eviction logic only considers pages from eligible zones for
eviction or promotion.
scan_folios() {
...
for (zone = sc->reclaim_idx; zone >= 0; zone--) {
...
sort_folio(); // Promote
...
isolate_folio(); // Evict
}
...
}
Consider the system has the movable zone configured and default 4
generations. The current state of the system is as shown below
(only illustrating one type for simplicity):
Type: ANON
Zone DMA32 Normal Movable Device
Gen 0 0 0 4GB 0
Gen 1 0 1GB 1MB 0
Gen 2 1MB 4GB 1MB 0
Gen 3 1MB 1MB 1MB 0
Now consider there is a GFP_KERNEL allocation request (eligible zone
index <= Normal), evict_folios() will return without doing any work
since there are no pages to scan in the eligible zones of the oldest
generation. Reclaim won't make progress until triggered from a ZONE_MOVABLE
allocation request; which may not happen soon if there is a lot of free
memory in the movable zone. This can lead to OOM kills, although there
is 1GB pages in the Normal zone of Gen 1 that we have not yet tried to
reclaim.
This issue is not seen in the conventional active/inactive LRU since
there are no per-zone lists.
If there are no (not enough) folios to scan in the eligible zones, move
folios from ineligible zone (zone_index > reclaim_index) to the next
generation. This allows for the progression of min_seq and reclaiming
from the next generation (Gen 1).
Qualcomm, Mediatek and raspberrypi [1] discovered this issue independently.

How do I submit patches to Android Common Kernels
-
BEST: Make all of your changes to upstream Linux. If appropriate, backport to the stable releases. These patches will be merged automatically in the corresponding common kernels. If the patch is already in upstream Linux, post a backport of the patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
- Do not send patches upstream that contain only symbol exports. To be considered for upstream Linux,
additions of
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()require an in-tree modular driver that uses the symbol -- so include the new driver or changes to an existing driver in the same patchset as the export. - When sending patches upstream, the commit message must contain a clear case for why the patch is needed and beneficial to the community. Enabling out-of-tree drivers or functionality is not not a persuasive case.
- Do not send patches upstream that contain only symbol exports. To be considered for upstream Linux,
additions of
-
LESS GOOD: Develop your patches out-of-tree (from an upstream Linux point-of-view). Unless these are fixing an Android-specific bug, these are very unlikely to be accepted unless they have been coordinated with kernel-team@android.com. If you want to proceed, post a patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
Common Kernel patch requirements
- All patches must conform to the Linux kernel coding standards and pass
scripts/checkpatch.pl - Patches shall not break gki_defconfig or allmodconfig builds for arm, arm64, x86, x86_64 architectures (see https://source.android.com/setup/build/building-kernels)
- If the patch is not merged from an upstream branch, the subject must be tagged with the type of patch:
UPSTREAM:,BACKPORT:,FROMGIT:,FROMLIST:, orANDROID:. - All patches must have a
Change-Id:tag (see https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/user-changeid.html) - If an Android bug has been assigned, there must be a
Bug:tag. - All patches must have a
Signed-off-by:tag by the author and the submitter
Additional requirements are listed below based on patch type
Requirements for backports from mainline Linux: UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:
- If the patch is a cherry-pick from Linux mainline with no changes at all
- tag the patch subject with
UPSTREAM:. - add upstream commit information with a
(cherry picked from commit ...)line - Example:
- if the upstream commit message is
- tag the patch subject with
important patch from upstream
