[patch -mm] oom: exclude tasks with badness score of 0 from being selected

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

 



An oom_badness() score of 0 means "never kill" according to
Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt, so explicitly exclude it from being
selected for kill.  These tasks have either detached their p->mm or are
set to OOM_DISABLE.
