The path in question is: int rhashtable_insert_rehash(struct rhashtable *ht) { [...] old_tbl = rht_dereference_rcu(ht->tbl, ht); tbl = rhashtable_last_table(ht, old_tbl); size = tbl->size; if (rht_grow_above_75(ht, tbl)) size *= 2; /* Do not schedule more than one rehash */ else if (old_tbl != tbl) return -EBUSY; The behaviour in question is the immediate rehash during insertion which we want to fail.

You can easily trigger this outside of the testsuite as well. Open 10K Netlink sockets in a loop and the creation of the sockets will fail way before memory pressure kicks in. I agree with you that the user should never retry on memory failure. That's why I suggested to differentiate between a "permanent" failure (memory pressure) and non-permanent failure (temporary overload on background expansion). Hence the proposed difference of return codes ENOMEM and EBUSY to report this back to the API user. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

If that fails then the insertion will fail. Ah, good to know. Thanks for clarifying this! Looking at rhashtable_test.c, I see the initial table size is 8 entries. 70% of that is 5.6 entries, so background expansion is started after the 6th entry has been added, right? Given there are 10 threads running which try to insert 50k entries at the same time, I don't think it's unlikely that three more entries are inserted before the background expansion completes.

It should be tried in the background first at 70% and only when that fails would we hit the 100% case and then we will try it with GFP_ATOMIC. If that fails then the insertion will fail.

Hmm. Since memory allocation is first tried with GFP_ATOMIC set and upon failure retried in background, this seems like a situation which might happen during normal use.

Therefore rht_deferred_worker() needs to check the return value of rhashtable_expand(). The question is how to propagate the error condition, as the worker's return value is not being kept track of (function returns void even). Should we introduce a new field to struct rhashtable to track the internal state? This might allow to clean up some rather obscure tests, e.g. whether a table resize is in progress or not.

In this case, allocation in GFP_KERNEL is retried by rht_deferred_worker(). Sadly, there is no way to determine if that has already been tried and failed.

[PATCH 2/3] rhashtable-test: retry insert operations in threads
After adding cond_resched() calls to threadfunc(), a surprisingly high rate of insert failures occurred probably due to table resizes getting a better chance to run in background. To not soften up the remaining tests, retry inserts until they either succeed or fail permanently.
