This is not a problem with the current code because of 98748bd72200 ("oom: consider multi-threaded tasks in task_will_free_mem") which got merged later on, however. The check is not needed so we can indeed drop it. Fixes: 3ef22dfff239 ("oom, oom_reaper: try to reap tasks which skip regular OOM killer path") Just in case somebody wants to backport only 3ef22dfff239. > Signed-off-by: Vladimir Davydov Acked-by: Michal Hocko Thanks! > --- > mm/oom_kill.c | 2 -- > 1 file changed, 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/mm/oom_kill.c b/mm/oom_kill.c > index c0e37dd1422f..03bf7a472296 100644 > --- a/mm/oom_kill.c > +++ b/mm/oom_kill.c > @@ -618,8 +618,6 @@ void try_oom_reaper(struct task_struct *tsk) > > if (!process_shares_mm(p, mm)) > continue; > - if (same_thread_group(p, tsk)) > - continue; > if (fatal_signal_pending(p)) > continue; > > -- > 2.1.4 -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
