From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2007 13:23:23 -0700 (PDT) From: David Rientjes Subject: [patch 8/9] oom: compare cpuset mems_allowed instead of exclusive ancestors In-Reply-To: Message-ID: References: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-linux-mm@kvack.org Return-Path: To: Andrew Morton Cc: Andrea Arcangeli , Christoph Lameter , Rik van Riel , linux-mm@kvack.org List-ID: Instead of testing for overlap in the memory nodes of the the nearest exclusive ancestor of both current and the candidate task, it is better to simply test for intersection between the task's mems_allowed in their task descriptors. This does not require taking callback_mutex since it is only used as a hint in the badness scoring. Tasks that do not have an intersection in their mems_allowed with the current task are not explicitly restricted from being OOM killed because it is quite possible that the candidate task has allocated memory there before and has since changed its mems_allowed.
