From a636b327f731143ccc544b966cfd8de6cb6d72c6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki Date: Wed, 7 Jan 2009 18:08:08 -0800 Subject: memcg: avoid unnecessary system-wide-oom-killer Current mmtom has new oom function as pagefault_out_of_memory(). It's added for select bad process rathar than killing current. When memcg hit limit and calls OOM at page_fault, this handler called and system-wide-oom handling happens. (means kernel panics if panic_on_oom is true....) To avoid overkill, check memcg's recent behavior before starting system-wide-oom. And this patch also fixes to guarantee "don't accnout against process with TIF_MEMDIE". This is necessary for smooth OOM.
