While browsing through ChromeOS crash reports, I found one with an
allocation failure that looked like this:
chrome: page allocation failure: order:7,
mode:0x40dc0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_COMP|__GFP_ZERO),
nodemask=(null),cpuset=urgent,mems_allowed=0

An order 7 allocation is (1 << 7) contiguous pages, or 512K. It's not
a surprise that this allocation failed on a system that's been running
for a while.
More digging showed that it was fairly easy to see the order 7
allocation by just sending a SIGQUIT to chrome (or other processes) to
generate a core dump. The actual amount being allocated was 279,584
bytes and it was for "core_note_type" NT_ARM_SVE.
There was quite a bit of discussion [1] on the mailing lists in
response to my v1 patch attempting to switch to vmalloc. The overall
conclusion was that we could likely reduce the 279,584 byte allocation
by quite a bit and Mark Brown has sent a patch to that effect [2].
However even with the 279,584 byte allocation gone there are still
65,552 byte allocations. These are just barely more than the 65,536
bytes and thus would require an order 5 allocation.
An order 5 allocation is still something to avoid unless necessary and
nothing needs the memory here to be contiguous. Change the allocation
to kvzalloc() which should still be efficient for small allocations
but doesn't force the memory subsystem to work hard (and maybe fail)
at getting a large contiguous chunk.
