Subject: oom: Bogus "sysrq: OOM request ignored because killer is disabled" message
Date: Sun, 2 Apr 2017 12:52:55 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201704021252.GIF21549.QFFOFOMVJtHSLO@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp> (raw)

I noticed that SysRq-f prints

  "sysrq: OOM request ignored because killer is disabled"

when no process was selected (rather than when oom killer was disabled).
This message was not printed until Linux 4.8 because commit 7c5f64f84483bd13
("mm: oom: deduplicate victim selection code for memcg and global oom") changed
 from "return true;" to "return !!oc->chosen;" when is_sysrq_oom(oc) is true.

Is this what we meant?
