I found the below patch lying around but I didn't queue it properly. Is it legit? From: Johannes Weiner <[email protected]> Subject: oom-clear-tif_memdie-after-oom_reaper-managed-to-unmap-the-address-space-fix When the OOM killer scans tasks and encounters a PF_EXITING one, it force-selects that one regardless of the score. Is there a possibility that the task might hang after it has set PF_EXITING? In that case the OOM killer should be able to move on to the next task. Frankly, I don't even know why we check for exiting tasks in the OOM killer. We've tried direct reclaim at least 15 times by the time we decide the system is OOM, there was plenty of time to exit and free memory; and a task might exit voluntarily right after we issue a kill. This is testing pure noise. Cc: Tetsuo Handa <[email protected]> Cc: Michal Hocko <[email protected]> Cc: Kirill A.
