From: David Rientjes Date: Tue, 31 Jul 2012 23:42:37 +0000 (-0700) Subject: mm, oom: do not schedule if current has been killed X-Git-Tag: upstream/snapshot3+hdmi~6896^2~89 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4f774b912dd1d5752cd33b696509531b0321c3e0;p=platform%2Fadaptation%2Frenesas_rcar%2Frenesas_kernel.git mm, oom: do not schedule if current has been killed The oom killer currently schedules away from current in an uninterruptible sleep if it does not have access to memory reserves. It's possible that current was killed because it shares memory with the oom killed thread or because it was killed by the user in the interim, however. This patch only schedules away from current if it does not have a pending kill, i.e. if it does not share memory with the oom killed thread. It's possible that it will immediately retry its memory allocation and fail, but it will immediately be given access to memory reserves if it calls the oom killer again. This prevents the delay of memory freeing when threads that share memory with the oom killed thread get unnecessarily scheduled.
