Subject: Re: [patch -mm 05/18] oom: remove special handling for pagefault ooms
Date: Tue, 1 Jun 2010 16:34:33 +0900 (JST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100601163420.2451.A69D9226@jp.fujitsu.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <alpine.DEB.2.00.1006010014080.29202@chino.kir.corp.google.com>
> It is possible to remove the special pagefault oom handler by simply oom
> locking all system zones and then calling directly into out_of_memory().
>
> All populated zones must have ZONE_OOM_LOCKED set, otherwise there is a
> parallel oom killing in progress that will lead to eventual memory freeing
> so it's not necessary to needlessly kill another task. The context in
> which the pagefault is allocating memory is unknown to the oom killer, so
> this is done on a system-wide level.
>
> If a task has already been oom killed and hasn't fully exited yet, this
> will be a no-op since select_bad_process() recognizes tasks across the
> system with TIF_MEMDIE set.
