[PATCH 2/3] mm: drop oom code from exit_mmap

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



With the oom-killer being able to operate on locked pages, exit_mmap
does not need to ensure that oom_reap_task_mm is done before it can
proceed. Instead it can rely on mmap_lock write lock to prevent
oom-killer from operating on the vma tree while it's freeing page
tables. exit_mmap can hold mmap_lock read lock when unmapping vmas
and then take mmap_lock write lock before freeing page tables.
