From 8ac3f8fe91a2119522a73fbc41d354057054e6ed Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joel Savitz Date: Mon, 23 Sep 2019 15:37:04 -0700 Subject: mm/oom_kill.c: add task UID to info message on an oom kill In the event of an oom kill, useful information about the killed process is printed to dmesg. Users, especially system administrators, will find it useful to immediately see the UID of the process. We already print uid when dumping eligible tasks so it is not overly hard to find that information in the oom report. However this information is unavailable when dumping of eligible tasks is disabled. In the following example, abuse_the_ram is the name of a program that attempts to iteratively allocate all available memory until it is stopped by force. Current message: Out of memory: Killed process 35389 (abuse_the_ram) total-vm:133718232kB, anon-rss:129624980kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB Patched message: Out of memory: Killed process 2739 (abuse_the_ram), total-vm:133880028kB, anon-rss:129754836kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB, UID:0 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: s/UID %d/UID:%u/ in printk] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1560362273-534-1-git-send-email-jsavitz@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Joel Savitz Suggested-by: David Rientjes Acked-by: Rafael Aquini Cc: Michal Hocko Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- mm/oom_kill.c | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'mm') diff --git a/mm/oom_kill.c b/mm/oom_kill.c index eda2e2a0bdc6..95872bdfec4e 100644 --- a/mm/oom_kill.c +++ b/mm/oom_kill.c @@ -884,12 +884,13 @@ static void __oom_kill_process(struct task_struct *victim, const char *message) */ do_send_sig_info(SIGKILL, SEND_SIG_PRIV, victim, PIDTYPE_TGID); mark_oom_victim(victim); - pr_err("%s: Killed process %d (%s) total-vm:%lukB, anon-rss:%lukB, file-rss:%lukB, shmem-rss:%lukB\n", + pr_err("%s: Killed process %d (%s) total-vm:%lukB, anon-rss:%lukB, file-rss:%lukB, shmem-rss:%lukB, UID:%u\n", message, task_pid_nr(victim), victim->comm, K(victim->mm->total_vm), K(get_mm_counter(victim->mm, MM_ANONPAGES)), K(get_mm_counter(victim->mm, MM_FILEPAGES)), - K(get_mm_counter(victim->mm, MM_SHMEMPAGES))); + K(get_mm_counter(victim->mm, MM_SHMEMPAGES)), + from_kuid(&init_user_ns, task_uid(victim))); task_unlock(victim); /* -- cgit v1.2.3
