Hi Steve,

I too have noticed this strange behaviour on my Linux ARM board.

I also have 2.6.35.12 installed and I see a similar crash when
parallel OOMs are triggerred.

I am executing multiple instances of a similar test application which
allocates a lot of anonymous memory.
OOM then starts kicking in parallel and this eventualy results in a
hang situation.

Can anyone tell me what patch to apply to solve this problem ?


I'm really not familiar with OOM, so I don&#= 39;t know the answer.

Sorry,

Steve
